The Beauty and the Brain

Chapter 199

“What did you say?” Marie looked at Clayton and made up her mind not to admit it.

Even if she did, she would tell Dennis first.

“Marie, stop pretending. We even found the photo. You are Rose! Tell me! What exactly

do you want to do by deliberately getting close to Dennis? Where is he now?” Clayton asked coldly.

Marie was confused and asked, “Where is Dennis? How do I know where he is? Isn’t he with you?”

Looking at Marie’s expression, Clayton almost believed her. “Rose! Stop pretending!

Tell me! Where is Dennis?”

“Clayton! What the fuck are you talking about? What happened to Dennis?” Marie was

so anxious that she cursed.

“You’re asking me? Didn’t you deliberately stay by his side? He was kidnapped apart from the car

accident, and now his whereabouts are unknown. Aren’t you the one who planned all of this?” Clayton

complained loudly.

Marie was dumbfounded. Dennis was in a car accident? Kidnapped? And now, he is

nowhere to be found?

Clayton didn’t investigate but went to such great lengths to catch me. Does he expect

me to tell him where Dennis is?

At this moment, Marie wished she was the one who kidnapped Dennis. At least Dennis would be safe

in this way.

“Clayton! It’s not me! I haven’t contacted him for days!” shouted Marie.

Walking over, Clayton pressed the muzzle of his pistol against her forehead and said, “I’ll give you one

last chance. Are you going to tell me?”

With a cold expression on her face, Marie threw an eye at Luca as a hint, then he rushed over and

bumped into Clayton. Meanwhile, Marie raised her hands and wrapped them around Clayton’s neck.

With the rope in her hands, she strangled Clayton and kicked the pistol in his hand away.

Luca quickly picked up the pistol and pointed it at Clayton’s head. The situation was

be fine to tie them up.

“Clayton, I don’t want to hurt you. Let your men untie us!” Marie said.

“No way! Dennis trusted you so much, and you actually lied to him for so long! You femme fatale!”

Clayton cursed loudly.

Luca knocked on Clayton’s head with the pistol and said, “Are you stupid? Rose died a long time ago.

Marie is the lady of the Spence family, and she is the twin of Rose!”

Clayton was stunned for a moment and immediately retorted, “That’s impossible!

Don’t try to lie to me!”

Marie was anxious. “I don’t have time to explain it to you! Untie me! I’ll go myself!” she scolded.

find Dennis

Luca’s pistol was pointed at Clayton’s head, so Clayton had no choice but to have

someone untie them.

After stretching her wrists and looking at the hatred in Clayton’s eyes, Marie sighed helplessly and said,

“Clayton, I didn’t kidnap him. I’m going to find him by myself now.

You can send someone to follow me. I wish you could find him very soon!”

Marie took Luca out of the spot. As soon as they left, they realized that they were not

unconscious for a while. They had been in a coma for a day, and Clayton had already brought them to

Paris within that time.

Marie sighed and asked, “Where are Emory and Kate?”

Luca shook his head. “I don’t know. I have to find a computer to contact them.”

With a nod, Marie led Luca to a hotel and borrowed the computer. Then, they started to

get busy.

Luca contacted Emory and asked them to come over as soon as possible, while Marie found out that

Cullen was still lying in the hospital.

After putting away the computer, Marie had to go to the hospital first. Cullen had an accident together

with Dennis, so he must know what happened at that time.

When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor said Cullen had a broken rib and was shot. He had lost

too much blood and had been in a coma. He just woke up today, and the

 ́doctor hadn’t had time to inform Clayton’s side.

When Marie entered the ward, Cullen was stunned to see her. With a hint of alienation

in his eyes, he said, “Ms. Spence, why are you here?”

After seeing his reaction, Marie knew that Dennis probably also knew what Clayton had

found out. It was just a matter of whether he believed it or not.

Sitting by the hospital bed, Marie said, “I’m here to look for Dennis. Do you still

remember what happened on the day of the accident?”

Cullen nodded and shook his head again. He remembered the situation but didn’t know

if he should tell Marie first.

Marie sighed and said, “Cullen, believe me. I won’t hurt Dennis. When I get him back, I will explain it to

everyone!”

Cullen stared into her eyes for a long time before he made up his mind and said, “It’s the

drug dealer… It was done by the men of Landon, the one who was killed in Witton

Manor. I remember the look of one of his subordinates. I saw him.”

Marie was startled. Dennis was taken away by the drug dealer? What are they going to do? Or had

they already done something?

She stood up and was about to find Luca, but Cullen suddenly stopped her and said, “Ms.

Spence, I’ve always believed in you. You’ll get Mr. Whitney back, right?”

She nodded, and her eyes filled with unprecedented determination. “Of course, I will definitely find him

back.”

If she couldn’t find Dennis, Marie didn’t know where to put her heart, which she had finally given to him,

and how to spend the rest of her stable life that Dennis had

promised her.

So no matter what, Dennis had proposed to her, and she must bring him back whether

he was alive or dead.

When she returned to the hotel, she and Luca were busy checking the whereabouts of the drug

trafficking group. Why did they kidnap Dennis? If it is an act of revenge, they should have kidnapped

Clayton instead!

Luca looked at Marie, who was typing at a high speed on the keyboard. She infiltrated

various surveillance cameras and websites skillfully. Luca was stunned and asked, “Marie, aren’t you

really Rose?”

The way she became serious, the way she hacked into the system, and the way she

fought back in front of Clayton just now, were not only similar to Rose. Luca almost

thought it was Rose standing in front of him and leading them to charge and fight the enemy again and

again.

Marie’s fingers paused for a moment and said, “How is that possible? Will Rose’s skill

be as bad as mine?”

Luca thought for a while and agreed with her words. Although Marie was quite powerful

she was still far behind Rose, who was in her heyday. Rose was simply a legend of the Rodger Group.

now,

Marie and Luca stayed up almost all night to check the location of the criminal group and find out if

Dennis’s figure appeared in any of the surveillance cameras.

They were actually racing against time now. They couldn’t imagine what those lunatic people would do

to Dennis. Maybe if they were one step late, Dennis would disappear

forever.

In the middle of the night, only the sound of two people tapping on the keyboard could be heard in the

hotel room. Suddenly, Luca shouted, “I found it!”

Marie rushed over and asked, “Where is it?”

Luca showed her the computer and said, “The last time he appeared was at the airport last night. Mr.

Whitney was taken to a private plane by them.”

“Private plane? The flight route should be registered, right? Where did it fly to?” asked

Marie.

Luca paused for a moment and said, “Brussels.”

Marie was stunned. She wondered if the group’s stronghold, or one of them, was in Brussels.

If it was in Brussels, then she could find the location of these hideouts with her eyes closed. After all,

she had once figured out every stronghold there in order to complete

the task.

However, Brussels was probably the place she hated to go to in this world. No one would

want to go to the place where they had once died again.

But since Dennis was there, she had no choice but to go. With a cold face, Marie said, “Book a flight.

We’ll go to Brussels.”

“Then what about Emory and Kate?” Luca asked.

“Inform them to change the route. We’ll meet in Brussels!” said Marie.

Luca nodded and sent a message to Emory and the others. After packing their things, he left the hotel

with Marie to the airport.
