Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 289:

As Marissa ascended to the second floor, Domenic, Marc, and Terry grew increasingly nervous. In their roles as Connor’s special assistant and bodyguards, they had let a woman slip by. They anticipated Connor’s harsh criticism once Marissa requested a divorce again. In a rush of panic, the three men followed Marissa closely and intercepted her in the hallway.

“Miss Nash, Mr. Daniels isn’t here.”

Marissa, however, disregarded their attempts, pushed them away, and continued on her way. She stopped at her old bedroom, opened the door, and stepped inside. Domenic, Marc, and Terry stared in astonishment. As the door shut behind her, they blinked, bewildered yet relieved. They guessed that Connor might be hiding in his study, while Marissa had locked herself in the bedroom. It seemed the two would not meet each other for now.

After a brief silence, Domenic said to the others, “You stay here and keep an eye on Miss Nash’s movements. I’ll update Mr. Daniels on the situation.”

Terry nodded. “Her eyes were unfocused. It seemed like she wasn’t thinking clearly. It’s not like her at all.”
