The Beauty and the Brain

Chapter 178

All the coincidences came together, as if the final answer was about to be pieced together.

Previously, when the gunfight started, Marie disappeared. The mysterious sniper shot Landon in the

head. No matter how Clayton looked into it, he couldn’t find out who that sniper was.

This time, the sniper appeared again, together with that young man named Luca, the bodyguard of

Marie.

Dennis didn’t want to suspect her, nor did he want to investigate her. He promised to wait for a year

and hear the truth from her.

But now the truth was right in front of him. It involved the Terry Group again. His repeated suspicions

that there might be some kind of relationship between Marie and Rose seemed to be confirmed.

Dennis was silent for a long time. He pressed the internal phone and instructed Cullen, “Go and find

out where Marie went on the last business trip and whether her bodyguard, Luca, went with her.”

Cullen was stunned and asked in disbelief, “Mr. Whitney, do you want me to investigate Ms. Marie?”

“Yes, do this soon.” Dennis hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair without saying another

word. All he wanted to know now was the relationship between Marie and Rose.

A week later, Marie and Sasha boarded a flight to Europe. They were accompanied by Iliana and

several

assistants.

Iliana was unhappy at first. It was not easy for her to ease her attitude towards Andres. She was in a

worse mood when seeing that Andres and Nataly were intimate in the hospital.

So Marie booked a flight for Iliana as well and treated it as a trip for a group of girlfriends.

The three of them often met, but when they were sitting together, they still had plenty to talk about.

After more than ten hours of flight, they finally arrived at the hotel. To make work easier, the assistant

booked a big suite for them and let them stay together.

Now it was so lively that the three of them had a good time when entering the room, completely

forgetting that they were here to walk the red carpet.

After resting all night, the next morning, they got dressed and went out shopping. Girls gathered

together for shopping, didn’t they?

After almost visiting the entire city and taking countless photos, Marie posted on her Instagram. [Girls,

go!]

There was a photo of her, Sasha and Iliana. Three of them smiled happily at the camera.

The comments below were not so happy..

Andres asked, [Marie, shall I help you carry your bags?]

Ilana replied. [Thanks, Mr. Robert. No need.]

Andres commented, […]

Get Bonut

Darwin commented, [Sasha, you won’t be able to wear the gown if you gain weight!]

Sasha replied, [None of your business.]

Darwin was at a loss for words. […] ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Gavin said, I want to join. Hotel name? Address?]

Dennis replied, [Fat chance.]

Gavin was speechless. […]

Looking at the comments, Marie laughed so hard. The three of them were tired after a day of shopping.

They went back to the hotel for a spa before returning to their room.

Marie scrolled through the photos on her Instagram. “Iliana, hasn’t Andres been looking for you

recently?”

Iliana was stunned and shook her head. “No, he hasn’t.”

Then, Marie turned to Sasha. “How are things with you and Darwin?”

Sasha flushed. “What do you mean?”

Marie smiled. “Come on. Everyone knows what Darwin thinks of you.”

Sasha covered her face with the pillow and wailed, “Hey! Darwin is simply acting crazy!”

Marie pulled off the pillow. “Did he confess his love? Darwin told me that he’ll confess after the film

festival!”

Sasha pounced over and tickled Marie. “Fine! You already knew that Darwin was going to confess, but

your

didn’t tell me!”

With a smile, Marie dodged. “I knew it! Hahaha! Are our best actor and the best actress together?”

Sasha stood up with a blush. “No, no! Let’s talk about it when we return home!”

She ran back to her room and closed the door. Marie didn’t ask further. The film festival was tomorrow,

so

she wanted Sasha to have a good rest.

Iliana also stood up. “Marie, go to bed early. You have to work tomorrow!”

Marie nodded. After saying good night to Illana, she went back to her room to sleep.

The next morning, Marie and Sasha got up early for preparation. The red carpet broadcast of the

Europe Film Festival almost attracted global attention, so Sasha must not take it lightly.

The makeup artist spent three hours on Sasha’s makeup and hairstyle. Sasha’s long hair spread

behind her back. Her makeup had more of a European style. This time, she was wearing a white tube

dress with a thin layer of gauze outside, which was dreamlike.

While Marie was waiting for the assistants to help Sasha change her clothes, a sudden exclamation

came from inside. Marie knocked on the door. “Sasha, what’s wrong?”

The door was opened, and one of the assistants ran out. “Ms. Spence, Sasha’s dress is broken!”

Astonished, Marie pushed open the door. “How is it broken? Where is it broken?”

They had specially found a famous designer in New York to customize this dress for Sasha just to

show off

on the red carpet. Along the way, they were careful and afraid of creasing. How could it be broken

now?

Sasha stood in front of the full-length mirror. There was a long cut on the front of the dress, from the

chest to

the waist. It was so neatly damaged that it should be cut with a knife or scissors. Even if it was sewn up

now,

it would leave a conspicuous mark.

Marie asked, “Where are the spare gowns? Didn’t we bring a few sets of spare gowns?”

The assistants rummaged through the spare dresses, all of which were cut by scissors. None of them

were

intact. How could these be dresses? This was simply a pile of colorful rags!

Marie was furious. “Who was in charge of the dresses? It’s only now that you found it was broken?

How did it

get broken!
