Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 791:

Marissa never imagined that Blair Lyons, the research and development director at Windsoul Robots, was the one Q had entrusted to retrieve the chip. In other words, Blair was the mole Q had planted within Windsoul Robots, tasked with secretly spying on Dr. Finley for Q.

Luckily, she had never disclosed anything about Dr. Finley to Blair. In hindsight, she realized how perilous the situation had been. Blair had always seemed like a capable technician, quiet and hardworking at Windsoul Robots. He appeared to be the quintessential elite, entirely consumed by his passion for robotics.

Marissa had once held him in high regard, even suggesting to Joziah that Blair be promoted to director. She had planned to monitor him for a while and, if all went well, bring him into the core team at Windsoul Robots. She never would have guessed that Blair was in Q’s pocket. His performance was flawless, so much so that she almost fell into Q’s carefully laid trap.

Fortunately, she had uncovered Blair’s secret just in time. Marissa’s eyes narrowed with dangerous intent as she lifted her gaze from her phone and surveyed her surroundings. Not wanting to tip off Q’s other spies, she quickly hailed a taxi and put significant distance between herself and the Blue Shield Bar.

Although she left by taxi, Marissa kept tabs on Blair through the surveillance system. When he secured the chip and exited the Blue Shield Bar, her taxi was already two streets away.
