Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 920:

As Gerry eagerly made the phone call, Marissa and Landen exchanged glances, their faces displaying knowing smiles.

Observing the quiet interaction between the two, Sergio and Hannah shared a knowing glance and smiled, allowing the pair to continue with what they had planned.

Balthasar also noticed that Marissa and Landen were luring Gerry and Crosby into their trap but chose not to intervene.

As the senior-most member of the family, he had always treated the younger generation with impartiality. However, in this case, he couldn’t help but hold onto his own biases.

After all, Gerry and Crosby were merely his distant relatives, while Marissa and Landen were his grandchildren. Naturally, he favored his grandchildren more.

He couldn’t let his favoritism show earlier, when Gerry and Crosby were relentless in trying to corner Marissa and Landen, as it would undermine his authority as the senior-most member of the family.

This time, however, Balthasar allowed a look of complacency to cross his face as he watched Marissa and Landen prepare to turn the tables on the arrogant father and son, a wave of vindication swelling within him. He was also a renowned and respected expert in the medical field. No average person possessed his phone number, let alone Gerry.

The only way to reach him was through the public business line of his team.

While Gerry dialed the number, Marissa sent a message to Ferris, explaining the situation and instructing him on how to deal with Gerry’s inquiry.

Just as Marissa finished briefing Ferris, the customer service team answered Gerry’s call.

Gerry skipped the introduction and went straight to the point, boldly saying, “Hi, I called to report to your team that someone is impersonating Dr. X. I don’t know how, but this person managed to get a hold of over a hundred MindEase Elixirs. My suspicion is they were stolen from one of your facilities.”

Gerry’s words left everyone in the Nash family wide-eyed with shock, perplexed that he could betray his own family like that.

Gerry brushed their reactions aside and added with a serious expression, “This is a serious matter, miss. You must inform Mr. Frazier immediately and have him contact me.”noveldrama

On the other end of the line, the customer service agent was taken aback by the report and quickly responded, “Please provide me with the details, sir. If what you’re saying is true, I will inform Mr. Frazier immediately.”

Gerry glanced smugly at Marissa, exaggerating how she claimed to be Dr. X and showed them over a hundred MindEase Elixirs out of nowhere.

The customer service agent promptly noted everything down.

“This is indeed a serious matter. I will report it to Mr. Frazier right now. Please leave your name and contact information, sir, so Mr. Frazier can reach you.”

Gerry complacently obliged and provided what was asked.

The customer service agent thanked him and told him to wait for Mr. Frazier’s call if the need arose before ending the call.

Putting away his phone, Gerry looked at Marissa with a smug smile.

“Dignity and thievery have their price, Tiffany. Just wait for Dr. X’s team to report you to the police.”

Paying no mind to his threat, Marissa crushed one MindEase Elixir into a cup, dissolved it with warm water, and handed the cup to Hannah.

“Hannah, give this to Uncle Sergio.”

“Alright,” Hannah said, taking the cup and helping Sergio drink the water.

As Sergio emptied the cup in one smooth gulp, Balthasar watched intently and then asked, “How do you feel?” When Balthasar had the pill, he had only scraped off a small amount of it to dissolve in water. Even with that small amount, he felt invigorated and refreshed each time he drank it, leaving him in awe of the medicine’s magical effect.

Sergio took the whole pill, making Balthasar eagerly curious to know its effect right away.

Instead of answering, Sergio took a moment to savor the experience and observed how his body reacted to the medicine.

The effect was swift and pleasant. Within seconds, the tension in his furrowed brows eased, and color returned to his face.

He opened his eyes, a smile spreading across his face, and replied to Balthasar, “I feel amazing. My body feels light and powerful, as if every pore has opened up, and I’m completely energized.”

Looking at Sergio’s expression, Balthasar remarked with a touch of jealousy, “Taking the entire pill definitely provides more results than just drinking a tiny piece.”

Everyone could sense the envy in his tone, yet they could understand, as they secretly shared in his jealousy. While he was left unsatisfied with just the tiny piece, the others hadn’t even had a taste.

At that moment, Gerry’s phone rang, swiftly shifting everyone’s focus from Sergio and Balthasar to him.
