Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 952:

“Where did Tiffany go?” Sergio asked, still perplexed.

“Tiffany has some business to take care of abroad,” Marissa replied.

“Once she’s finished, she’ll return on her own.”noveldrama

Though Marissa kept her expression calm, her mind couldn’t help but drift when she mentioned Tiffany. Memories of their encounter on the cruise flooded her thoughts, especially the explosion that had torn apart the ship.

The uncertainty weighed on her—she had no idea if Tiffany was alive or dead, or where she might be if she had survived. The worry gnawed at her, though she hid it well.

“I see,” Sergio responded, nodding thoughtfully.

“Tiffany isn’t as capable as you. She’s always been a handful—no education, no money. How could she possibly manage to survive abroad? I’m genuinely concerned for her.”

Marissa quickly reassured him, “With my support, there’s no need to worry. And honestly, Tiffany is far more talented than she let you see. What you’ve seen was just a facade. She’s neither a fool nor useless.”

Hannah chimed in, nodding in agreement, “I believe that. I’ve always thought Tiffany was smart, too. She’s probably a lot like Marissa—achieving incredible things behind the scenes that we don’t even know about. She must be exceptional in her own way.”

After a brief pause, Hannah’s face grew more serious.

“But there’s something else that’s bothering me…”

“What is it, Hannah?” Marissa asked.

Hannah paused, seemingly pondering her words before she spoke.

“Brian is returning home soon and you will reclaim your true identity, too. How are we going to explain Tiffany’s situation to everyone? If we’re not careful, it may lead to unnecessary rumors that could only make things more difficult for Tiffany.”

Tiffany’s reputation was already poor as it was. If word got out that the outstanding young lady that everyone was praising was actually her twin sister and not Tiffany herself, everyone would discover that Tiffany had indeed run away from her own wedding and was currently nowhere to be found. At that point, her name would no doubt sink to rock bottom. She might not even be able to set foot in Blebert again.

Balthasar and Sergio shared the same worries.

Everyone fell silent as they fixed their eyes on Marissa and waited for her to make a decision.

“I won’t reveal my identity as Black Mallow of the Doomsday Base,” Marissa finally said.

“I will stay in Blebert and continue to assume Tiffany’s identity until she comes back home safe. Then, I shall appear as Marissa and officially return to the Nash family.”

Balthasar, Sergio, and Hannah nodded in agreement. When all was said and done, this was truly the best decision, for Tiffany’s sake.

Hannah suddenly chuckled.

“Some people are already speculating that Connor dumped Marissa. I have a feeling that we will be besieged by all sorts of troublemakers tomorrow. They’ll try to mock and humiliate our family, for sure.”

Balthasar and Sergio laughed as well. They were already expecting as much and weren’t worried at all. The Nash family was blessed with remarkable figures. A group of ambitious opportunists didn’t faze them.

Hannah shook her head and laughed again.

“Oh, I’m not worried about the small fries. I’m thinking about Zayn, in particular. I’d bet good money that he won’t waste any time proposing to Marissa. He’ll probably show up in the next few days to pester her.”
