Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 818:

“Connor, there’s something I’d like to ask of you,” Marissa said.

“Go ahead,” Connor replied without hesitation. It was rare for her to ask for anything from him.

Marissa heaved a long sigh, her voice tinged with sadness when she said, “I know it’s unfair to ask you to take responsibility for Tiffany. Since she ran away from your marriage, I’m sure anyone can agree that you no longer have any obligation toward her. But please, if only for the fact that she is the mother of your children, please take care of her. The future isn’t looking so great for her.”

Marissa proceeded to tell Connor all about the new virus that Q had developed. The more Connor listened, the deeper his frown became. “Are you saying that Tiffany is already infected with this new virus?”

“Yes,” Marissa confirmed. noveldrama

“This new virus has multiple side effects and a high probability of causing human cell mutation. The monster that Lawrence and Lindsay mentioned is actually a human who mutated after being injected with this new virus.”

“Does that mean Tiffany will also turn into a monster in the future?” Connor asked.

This time, Marissa’s voice was quieter.

“That’s right. For now, Q said that Tiffany is stable. She is coexisting with the virus pretty well. But we have no way of knowing what sort of changes her body will undergo in the future.

Ayla also has the virus, so I’m planning to extract some of her blood for research. The goal is to develop an antidote and possibly a vaccine, but I can’t say that success is guaranteed at this point.

My biggest worry is that Tiffany might mutate beyond recognition before I can even create an acceptable prototype of the antidote.”

Marissa’s eyes welled up with tears, and she almost choked on her words as she continued to speak.

“I can’t help but pity Tiffany for everything she’s had to endure. She has been manipulated from a very young age. A chip was implanted in her brain, turning her into a puppet and making her the laughingstock of the entire city.

She has managed to survive this long by giving it her all. She is not the failure people say she is. In fact, she is very smart, brave, and strong.

As her sister, it is my duty to bring her back safely and help her live a normal life. I need to make sure that she will no longer suffer in the future.”

Marissa’s eyes glimmered with unshed tears as she stared up at Connor. “Will you grant me this request?”

Connor’s brows were still knitted. He was silent for a long while, just observing Marissa’s face. Her request was perfectly reasonable.

She wasn’t asking him to marry Tiffany, just to look after her. He had no reason to refuse. In fact, Marissa didn’t even have to ask. He would readily take care of Tiffany, considering she was the mother of his two children.

For their sake, he would gladly ensure that Tiffany lived a safe and comfortable life, free from any worry.

Connor’s prolonged silence actually stemmed from his concern for Marissa. With her capabilities, he knew that she didn’t need to come to him for help on this matter.
