Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 173

Chapter 173

The beautiful boss looked at the silent Ryan Roberts, thinking that he was interested.

She immediately swayed her hips and approached him.

Just as her hand was about to touch Ryan’s chest, it was suddenly blocked by a slender hand.

Ryan was slightly startled and looked up to see Marina Bailey standing in front of him.

The attention of the beautiful boss was also drawn to her.

“What’s going on? Is this young man with you?” the beautiful boss raised an eyebrow.

Marina didn’t answer her question but directly took out a small bag from her pocket and threw it into the arms of the beautiful boss.

The beautiful boss received it with surprise..

Upon opening it, she discovered that it contained shining gold bars.

Her eyes lit up.

“Can you prepare rooms for us now?” Marina’s red lips parted.

“Certainly, I’ll take you to our best rooms right away,” the beautiful boss instantly changed her attitude and led the way with a very attentive expression.

Everyone looked stunned.

Marina Bailey, along after the boss.

Although the beautiful boss claimed to provide them with the best room, the actual environment was extremely poor.

It was a small suite with two beds and nothing else.

There was nothing else.

It was as basic and shabby as it could be.

“Thank you,” Marina expressed gratitude, despite the disappointing conditions.

“No need to be so polite with me, my dear. I particularly like straightforward and lively women like you. Those stinky men don’t understand how good! am. Would you like to have a good chat with me, little sister?” The beautiful boss flirtatiously threw a seductive glance at Marina.

“Remember, I’m not exclusively into men,” the beautiful boss added, trying to catch Marina’s attention.

“Thank you for the offer, but I prefer men,” Marina politely declined with a smile.

“That’s a pity. However, I think you should give it a try. Who knows, after you experience it, you might find women better than men,” the beautiful boss persisted unwilling to give up.

Marina’s attractive appearance and generous nature were indeed captivating.

“No need, really,” Marina replied firmly.

Seeing her unwavering determination, the beautiful boss had no choice but to give up.

“Well, I won’t disturb your rest then,” the beautiful boss said, turning to leave.

However, when she reached the door, she seemed to remember something and stopped, glancing back at Marina.

US Mon,

“You, little sister, perfectly fit my taste, so I’ll kindly give you a piece of advice,” she said.

“We’ve had some unruly people here recently. If there’s nothing important, don’t leave your room. Otherwise, if something happens to you outside the hotel, I won’t take responsibility,” the beautiful boss warned.

“Understood,” Marina expressed her gratitude and agreed.

“Well, I’m really leaving now, the beautiful boss prepared to depart. However, she couldn’t help but turn back and look at Marina, still unwilling to let go. “Little sister, if you change your mind and want to give it a try, remember to come find me.”

“If that day comes, I will look for you,” Marina nodded.

“Sister will be waiting for you,” the beautiful boss smiled and left.

As soon as she left, Marina immediately closed the door.

The atmosphere in the room instantly changed.

“Captain, did you bring us to a shady place? Is this rundown room worth a bag of gold bars?!” Brendon finally voiced his thoughts.

“Do you know why those people watching us didn’t follow us here?” Marina disregarded the value of the gold bars she had given away.

Marina sat leisurely on the bed next to her.

After all, there was not even a chair in the room.

The bed was the only option.

“Why? It can’t be because of that lady boss, right?” Brendon instinctively asked.

“Correct,” Marina gave him an affirmative answer.

A look of astonishment appeared on Brendon’s face immediately.

The others also found it hard to believe.

After all, the woman they encountered earlier did not seem exceptional, apart from being a bit frivolous.

Her gait did not resemble that of a martial artist.

“Here, there is no punishment for killing. Every day, you may stumble upon a fresh corpse in some alley,” Marina spoke calmly.

“And they will emotionlessly dispose of the bodies in the river outside,” she continued.

“It’s not because they hold any reverence for life, but simply because those corpses might encroach upon their territory,” Marina explained lightly.

Pyan rumpled his brow.

He knew that Meridonid had always been somewhat chaotic, but he hadn’t expected it to reach such a state.

“Although this place is filled with violence and danger, it’s also the only refuge for many outlaws,” Marina added.

“No one here will pry into your information, and the outside information network cannot trace this place,” she continued.

“So, in a sense, this is a very safe stronghold,” Marina concluded.

“Was that innkeeper just now the bass of this place?” Brendon asked.

“She’s not the boss, but as long as we stay in her inn, the people outside won’t lay a hand on us,” Marina replied.

“Now we need to plan carefully on how to rescue Professor Jardine,” Marina said as she took a small computer from her backpack.

The computer was only half the size of a regular notebook, but it was custom built by Marina herself, and there was only one of its kind in the world.

Her fingers swiftly tapped on the keyboard, and after a moment, Marina projected the decrypted information onto the opposite wall.

Everyone immediately turned their gaze toward it.

It was a map.

“Professor Jardine is currently located here,” Marina pointed at the computer screen and circled an area.

The map projected on the wall also had a circle drawn on it.

“This is our current location,” Marina pointed at the edge of the map.

“I just hacked into their surveillance system, and Professor Jardine’s apartment is under 24–hour surveillance,” she continued. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“As far as i know, at least five parties are monitoring Professor Jardine,” Marina explained.

“The most dangerous among them is the authority of Meridonia, who has deployed their elite special forces for this task.”

“These are the profiles of some of their team members,” Marina slid her finger lightly on the computer screen, and the identities of several agents instantly appeared.

Ryan focused on the person at the forefront, his expression changing.

“I know this person. We had a confrontation during a previous mission,” Ryan said, catching Marina Bailey’s gaze.

“Who won between you two?” Marina inquired.

Ryan creased his brows and replied, “I was injured then, so it was a draw. But if we face each other now, I’m confident I can defeat him.”
