Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 631:

Marissa shrugged, opting not to comment on Silver Fox’s spending. “It’s your choice.”

Silver Fox didn’t dwell on it. She tucked the black and golden card into her pocket and began chatting and laughing with Lawrence and Lindsay.

“Kids, I have plenty of money now. You can request any gift today, even if it means taking the entire mall with us!”

The children cheered, immediately launching into discussions about their desired purchases.

Marissa allowed them to indulge; after all, it was Burnet’s card they were using, so she felt no financial strain. Moreover, she was curious to witness Burnet’s reaction after Silver Fox’s extravagant spending. His behavior had been rather peculiar.

With Burnet covering the costs, the group headed to the most opulent mall in Blebert, the same one Marissa had visited with Xander previously.

Lawrence and Lindsay collected an array of toys, while Silver Fox indulged in a multitude of clothing, bags, and accessories, all charged to Burnet’s card.

Rita trailed behind as a porter, carrying bags of various sizes. When the load became too cumbersome, she retrieved a large shopping cart from the mall and pushed it.

After several hours, the cart was overflowing with bags, drawing the attention of passersby who had never witnessed such extravagant expenditure.

For Silver Fox, this was the most exhilarating shopping experience of her life. The freedom to purchase without constraints filled her with immense satisfaction, addressing a void within her.

As they were about to leave the mall, Silver Fox noticed Marissa hadn’t bought anything and asked, “Aren’t you getting something?”

Marissa smiled softly. “There’s nothing I need.”

It wasn’t that she lacked desires; rather, she was cautious of upsetting Connor, who had explicitly advised her against spending another man’s money. She feared his reaction if he discovered she was using Burnet’s funds.

To maintain harmony, she chose not to make any purchases.

Realizing Marissa truly had no interest in shopping, Silver Fox decided to conclude their spree. Before departing the mall, she sent a message to Burnet.

Meanwhile, Burnet was in his office, where his phone had been buzzing with spending alerts all afternoon.

Each time it chimed, he eagerly checked the notification, feeling a mix of surprise and delight. Spending on a woman he admired was genuinely gratifying.

Yet, amid his happiness, he sighed, acknowledging that this woman was undoubtedly a spendthrift. But it didn’t matter. Burnet earned money faster than she could spend it, allowing her to indulge freely.

As he sighed with mixed emotions, his phone buzzed with a new message—not another spending alert, but one from Silver Fox.

Silver Fox said, “Mr. Hoffman, I used your card today. Did my spending pace cause you any discomfort?”

Burnet replied, “Not at all, as long as you’re happy.”

Silver Fox was taken aback by his response. Gazing at the shopping cart piled high with bags, she estimated the total cost to be at least three billion dollars. How could he feel no discomfort?

If he sought to win her affection by providing the card, she had already informed him of her sexual orientation, and he had accepted it.

If he aimed to secure a collaboration between the Hoffman Group and Minty Fragrances and Perfumes, the expense seemed exorbitant.

Perplexed, Silver Fox decided to continue spending his money and observe; his true motives would eventually become clear.noveldrama

With that, the group departed the mall.

As they were leaving, Marissa received a message from Xander.

Xander said, “Chief Instructor, there’s a significant reshuffle at Peridot Consortium. All of Clarissa’s trusted associates have been secretly summoned back by the boss. The acting president has already arrived in Blebert and has notified senior members about a meeting tomorrow morning.”

Marissa raised an eyebrow, surprised by Kevin’s swift arrival.

Xander continued, “This acting president is highly regarded by the boss. He’s only temporarily overseeing Peridot Consortium; a new president will be appointed soon. I wonder who it will be.”

Marissa typed, “It’s me.”

Xander quickly replied with a shocked emoji, “Chief Instructor, you’re going to be the new president of Peridot Consortium?”

Marissa typed, “Yes, we’ll discuss the details when we meet. No need for further questions now.”

After ending the chat with Xander, Marissa suddenly felt a piercing gaze upon her
