Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 158:

Marissa hadn’t expected Connor to dare pinch her waist, yet he not only did so but also sneakily squeezed the soft flesh. He was clearly taking advantage of her. First, Connor teased her with his words, and now he was being physically intrusive. Did he think she was a pushover? But in front of Arabella, she couldn’t push his hands away. She had to maintain a sweet smile while Connor held her close

After pulling her into his arms, Connor looked down at her, smiling gently. The scene appeared so sweet that everyone in the room felt happy for them, witnessing their open display of affection. Yet, beneath the sweet exterior, tension simmered

With a smile plastered on her face, Marissa gritted her teeth. While she was in Connor’s embrace, her high-heeled shoe found its way to his foot, pressing down hard. Given her training as the chief instructor at Doomsday Base, her strength was formidable. For an ordinary person, such a step could break bones. Even Connor, the battle-hardened Lone Wolf, winced in pain. He realized just why Black Snake was known as the strongest female mercenary; her revenge was fierce yet masked by a gentle smile. His foot would likely ache for days

He expected Marissa to stop after one step, but she showed no signs of letting up. Since he was trapped by the presence of Arabella and unable to show his pain, his response was to laugh harder, despite the pain he felt. Thus, the situation turned somewhat comical. In Marissa’s revenge, Connor’s smile grew wider. Only Marissa understood the deeper meaning behind it
