Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 741:

Marissa had slipped into a sleek black tracksuit, donned a matching mask, added a black peaked cap, and finished the ensemble with black sneakers. With her tall, slender figure, she resembled a stealthy black snake. Connor had assumed that Marissa had returned to the bedroom to change into something glamorous for her date with another man. However, he was taken aback by her choice of attire—dark and enigmatic. It seemed less like she was preparing for a date and more like she was gearing up for a covert operation.

Initially, Connor had felt a twinge of jealousy, fearing she might choose something too eye-catching. He had even resolved to make her change into something more subdued.

Having spent considerable time together, they had developed an intuitive grasp of each other’s expressions. Marissa caught his drift immediately and confirmed with a nod. This reassurance allowed Connor to relax further. Black Snake wouldn’t get involved in a romantic relationship with anyone. If she was meeting a man under this guise, it likely had nothing to do with romance, easing his initial fears.
