I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 1239

"Yes," Falcon took a deep breath, recalling his conversation with Barrett. The more he thought about it, the more similarities he found. "I hope I'm just overthinking this..."

Billy pondered momentarily before concluding, "You're definitely overthinking it!"

Billy's certainty took aback Falcon. "Why do you say that, Mr. Billy? I know you trust Barrett and value his abilities, but not to this extent, surely?"

"Indeed, I've tested Barrett extensively and trust him more than most. But my trust isn't blind—it's based on judgment," Billy explained. "Think about it: the leader of the Nidhogg Organization commands one of the top international organizations. Someone like that would be extremely cautious. Do you think he'd risk coming here himself?

“Besides, before Barrett's battle with you, I laced his food with hallucinogens and had a hypnotist question him. His responses were consistent with what he told me while fully conscious. So your theory doesn't hold water."

"I understand, but they do seem so alike..." Falcon rubbed his temples, struggling to articulate his feelings. "Don't worry about it, Mr. Billy. I'll keep observing. If I find anything, you'll be the first to know."

Billy had to remind him, "Probe all you want, but be careful not to upset Barrett. He's young and prone to impulsiveness. Where will I find another talent like him if you drive him away?"

Falcon nodded and gave Billy a reassuring look. "Don't worry, Mr. Billy. I know how to handle this."
