Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 662:

Normally brash and reckless, Silver Fox found her confidence waning. The moment she recognized her error in mistaking Burnet for someone else, she knew she had unleashed a major disaster. This realization had compelled her to awaken Black Snake in the wee hours, seeking assistance to mitigate the fallout.

Reflecting on her actions with a mix of regret and anxiety, she timidly inquired of Marissa, “What should we do now?”

Marissa didn’t rush her response to Silver Fox’s question. Instead, she carefully laid out her concerns.

“There is something that doesn’t quite add up for me,” she began. “Burnet was an international special forces operative, trained to the highest standards. His willpower and vigilance are exceptional.

Even if he was inebriated, it’s implausible that he wouldn’t resist at all. Yet, you said he endured your beating, was bound, and humiliated without any resistance? That’s utterly preposterous.”

Silver Fox, looking remorseful, replied, “To ensure everything proceeded without a hitch, we dispersed a sedative mist through the gap beneath the door before we entered his room.”

Marissa pressed on, skeptical.

“What sort of sedative mist? Burnet, as a top-tier mercenary, has been rigorously trained against such measures. Ordinary mists wouldn’t affect him.

Considering you initially aimed to incapacitate Ernst, it seems unlikely you’d use anything special, right?”noveldrama

Silver Fox, shifting uneasily, admitted, “Actually, it was a special kind of mist. It was the muscle relaxant you created. It doesn’t knock a person out, but it does render them completely helpless.”

Marissa’s expression hardened. “You used the muscle relaxant I developed to subdue Burnet?” she asked sharply.

This muscle relaxant was crafted solely by Black Snake, standing out much like her signature weapon—a circular blade.

If even a hint of this muscle relaxant were detected at a crime scene, it would unmistakably point to Black Snake’s involvement.

Using this muscle relaxant to incapacitate Burnet basically broadcasted that Black Snake was responsible.

Overwhelmed by the implications of Silver Fox’s actions, Marissa couldn’t help but tap her forehead in vexation. “Are you holding a grudge against me? It feels like you’re trying to get me killed!”

Silver Fox, with a quiver in her voice, responded defensively, “All I wanted was to teach Ernst a lesson. He seems so feeble that I didn’t bother to prepare thoroughly. I just headed straight to the hotel to tie him up without bringing any drugs.

But upon seeing all the surveillance, I realized I couldn’t just barge in—I needed to quietly subdue Ernst first, yet I had no drugs with me. Desperately, I resorted to using your muscle relaxant in the room.

I assumed Ernst, being uninformed, wouldn’t recognize the relaxant. I figured after the lesson, he’d be too scared to talk about it and it would never get Black Snake involved.”

Frustration creased Silver Fox’s brow as she continued. “Who could have guessed my assistant would mess up the room numbers, and I’d end up incapacitating Burnet?”

Speechless and glaring at Silver Fox, Marissa couldn’t hold back her irritation.
