Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 1075:

Rex was truly taken aback. To the modest Nash family, the Peridot Consortium was beyond reach, much less being acquainted with its esteemed president.

Despite its fame and power, the exact nature of Peridot Consortium’s business remained a mystery to most. Its mention always stirred a sense of intrigue. Rex had never even considered that it might be involved in virus research. Although Rex was…

Surprised, Rex didn’t miss a crucial piece of information: Sansa had mentioned that Clarissa was the former president of the Peridot Consortium.

“Clarissa used to be the president of the Peridot Consortium, you said. Who’s taken her place?” Rex asked.

Looking toward Marissa with a hesitant expression, Sansa paused, the memories of what had transpired within the walls of Peridot Consortium’s tower weighing heavily on her.

In a calm tone, Marissa said, “I currently hold the presidency.”noveldrama

Sergio and Hannah were visibly stunned, hardly able to grasp that Marissa, one of their own, was now at the helm of the powerful and secretive Peridot Consortium.

Rex turned to Marissa, his expression one of surprise. “You’re the current president of the Peridot Consortium? Does this mean you’ve kept Ayla imprisoned to continue experimenting with viruses on her?”

Before Marissa could answer, Sansa sneered. “She wouldn’t be so kind. If she had such a good medicine, she wouldn’t have shared it with Ayla.”

As Rex’s confusion deepened, he looked to Sansa for an explanation.

Sansa frowned deeply and responded, “That medicine is provided only by Clarissa, not affiliated with Peridot Consortium. It’s Tiffany’s jealousy of Ayla’s enhanced abilities that has led her to detain Ayla, attempting to halt her progress.”

Grasping Rex’s arm, she said, “We must do something, Rex. Our daughter has a promising future, and we can’t let Tiffany sabotage it.”

Feeling overwhelmed and dazed by the situation, Rex struggled to process everything, Sansa’s anxious tugging adding to his turmoil.

Prompted by Sansa, Rex confronted Marissa, saying, “Tiffany, even if Ayla wronged you in the past, she’s already suffered the consequences. Isn’t it excessive to imprison her and jeopardize her future?”

Observing Rex being so readily manipulated by Sansa, Paul let out a sigh.

When Rex chose to marry Sansa, Paul had voiced his disapproval, convinced that a woman as foolish and cunning as Sansa would destroy Rex’s life. Time had shown that his concerns were justified.

At that time, Rex was utterly captivated by Sansa, and no persuasion from Paul could sway him. Now, as Paul watched Rex, whose discernment seemed to have diminished, falling entirely under Sansa’s influence, he could do nothing but silently accept the situation.

Marissa remained emotionally unaltered and calmly said, “Uncle Rex, since you trust Sansa’s words, allow me to demonstrate the true nature of your daughter’s future.” With that, Marissa pulled out her phone and dialed a number in front of everyone gathered.
