Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 946:

She then faced the screen and assured Paul, saying, “Brian, come home without any concerns. Your return is our affair alone and doesn’t concern anyone else. If others are unwelcoming, we’ll simply part ways with them.”

Landen sighed in relief. Initially, he had thought his father was a coward, but now understanding his father’s position, he too felt proud to have such a dad.

Marissa was touched by Sergio and Hannah’s decision.

“Thank you, Uncle Sergio, Hannah,” Marissa said, smiling.

“Also, don’t be too gloomy about what lies ahead. Although the shady organization is formidable, neither my father nor I are defenseless. My father has his team, and I have my own capabilities. It won’t be easy for the shady organization to target us.”

These words hinted at more, which Sergio and Hannah both noted.noveldrama

Hannah asked instinctively, “Marissa, tell us the truth. Besides being the legendary Dr. Riss, do you hold other fearsome identities we aren’t aware of?”

After hearing Hannah’s question, Marissa let a faint smile tug at the corners of her lips.

She had never gone out of her way to hide her various identities from her family. It just didn’t seem necessary to spill all the details. But now that Hannah was asking directly, Marissa didn’t mind revealing the truth—that she was, in fact, the chief instructor known as Black Mallow of the Doomsday Base.

This revelation would undoubtedly bolster the Nash family’s confidence, freeing them from living under the shadow of constant fear and anxiety over the looming threats from the shady organization.

“I do have another identity,” Marissa said, her smile widening just a touch.

Landen, catching wind of what was about to happen, quickly jumped in.

“Let me say it!”

He thought to himself that it wouldn’t be fitting for someone as prestigious as Black Snake to introduce herself. That was his job as her loyal subordinate. And since Marissa seemed ready to spill the beans, Landen wasn’t too worried about his parents finding out about his past in the mercenary world. After all, with Marissa in his corner, they’d probably go easy on him.

With that in mind, Landen eagerly started, “Grandpa, Dad, Mom, Marissa is actually Black…”

But before he could finish, Marissa cut in smoothly, stealing his thunder.

“I am Black Mallow.”

Landen stood there, floored. Marissa was the chief instructor of the Doomsday Base, Black Mallow?

Landen had been about to drop the bombshell that Marissa was the famous mercenary queen, Black Snake, thinking it would leave the entire family speechless. But instead, she had casually unveiled an identity even more jaw-dropping.

Compared to the chief instructor of the Doomsday Base, being Black Snake suddenly seemed like child’s play. Landen realized, with shock, that he had drastically underestimated Marissa’s power all along. Was Black Snake just a fun side gig for her?

Landen couldn’t believe it—his proudest achievements were nothing but a footnote compared to what Marissa had done effortlessly.

Now that Marissa had unveiled herself as Black Mallow, the need to disclose her identity as the mercenary queen, Black Snake, seemed to vanish entirely.

Landen swallowed hard, his lips pressed tightly together, choosing to remain silent. But the way he looked at Marissa now brimmed with even deeper admiration and reverence.
