Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 1071

"Mole? Who is it? You don't think it's me, do you?" Narissa peppered as a hint of malice laced her quirked brow.

"No, no, no, no, no. How dare I doubt your character?! You don't know this yet, do you? Raymond and Clement just got ambushed by Area X, and Alex still hasn't come around…" Danny left his words hanging and waited for Narissa's response. He was sure the young woman would get what he was trying to say.

If they wanted to put on a show for the outsiders, they'd need the foes, Narissa and Zephyr, to play the lead. However, there was no conflict during this important time, so he had to come up with something.

Alas, Narissa didn't react dramatically as he had expected but merely nodded understandingly. "Indeed, there are many things we don't know about him."

"Right? I knew you'd also suspect him!" Danny's eyes lit up. He believed the show was about to begin.

"I did in the past," Narissa affirmed his speculation but corrected him the next second. "However, El and Alexander both trust him. Thus, I think we should also have a little faith in him."

It was apparent to Danny that Narissa's killer instinct was lacking that day, so he could only shrug it off. "I get what you mean, but for everyone's safety, Zephyr has to go if another accident happens."

At that, Narissa withdrew her gaze but didn't rebut him. "You guys make the call. I'm tired, so I'm going to turn in now. I have to continue looking for El tomorrow, after all."

With that, she went upstairs. She dared not stay downstairs for too long, for she feared running into Jamie.

"Looks like someone failed to make himself the rat, eh?" Ariel deliberately teased him, seeing that Danny failed to bring about a dispute.

"Well, who knew she'd do a one-eighty so suddenly?! If it were in the past, she would've flipped out the moment she had something on Zephyr!" Danny shrugged, feeling blameless.

"Well, it is weird," Ariel mused while nodding in agreement. "It seems to me that she and Jamie have been acting strange ever since coming back from the resort. They've barely had any interactions."

"Yes, you're right!" Danny turned inexplicably excited as he smelled gossip coming. "That's exactly what I was trying to say! You know me so well, Honey. It's like you live in my brain!"

"Can't you use a different reference?" Ariel huffed but wasn't serious about it. At that, she mused, "Do you remember the day we were drugged? Narissa and Jamie only returned at 3.00AM. Narissa was already acting weird at the time. I guess you could say she was quite impassive. Jamie wasn't himself either, and his clothes were buttoned weirdly. It's clear that he removed them at one point. If he had done it while he was with Narissa, she could've helped him out before helping him back to the room. However, she pulled a grim face the entire time and became evidently distant from Jamie the next day."

"Are you saying Jamie was with another woman before Narissa found him? Then, wouldn't that mean…" Danny was struck with an epiphany, and he instantly became worried.

This was a serious matter of principle, and he was Exhibit A. If Jamie failed to hold the fort, then the consequences would be bleak.

Ariel nodded grimly. He was finally on the same page as her. However, neither was willing to believe their guess.

At that, Danny thought for a moment and said, "I think we should be more optimistic. They're each other's first love, after all. They won't break up so easily."

Ariel, on the other hand, wasn't so optimistic. "Have you never heard of this saying? First loves are meant to be missed."

"Maverick was your first love. Do you miss him?" Danny blurted, only realizing what he had just said right after thinking aloud. At that, he gave himself a couple of solid slaps in the face. "Sorry, Honey. I don't mean anything else. I just think Narissa and Jamie are a pretty good match. It'll be a shame if they break up."

At that, Danny and Ariel exchanged a glance. No doubt their guess was pretty solid.
