Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1544

The Panacea's physique and the exact cadence of her stride were incredibly bizarre.

Especially the way she held her weight as she walked toward him with her medical kit.

A deeply unsettling sensation washed over him.

It felt like he had seen her move like this before.

And so, separated by just a few feet of steel corridor, the two apex predators locked eyes.

Neither of them flinched. Neither spoke.

An electrifying, crushing tension flooded the hallway.

Silas, standing on the sidelines, instantly felt the suffocating atmosphere. Sweat prickled at his hairline.

His eyes darted nervously between the two killers before he stepped in to break the ice. "Miss Panacea, please allow me to introduce Mr. Fenris."

"The Fenris Squad is currently overseeing the security for both the specialized treatment zone and The Sanctum Vault's Outer Perimeter."

Having said that, he quickly turned back to Jerrick. "Mr. Fenris, this is The Panacea. She has officially been retained as the Specialized Medical Consultant for the Living Assets. She will require unfettered access to this zone throughout her stay on Project Zero-Transit."

Serena gave a lazy, uninterested nod.

Jerrick offered a stiff, barely perceptible dip of his chin.

Neither showed a shred of genuine interest.

They acted like two complete strangers indulging a bureaucratic middleman.

Serena, of course, was well aware of the name Fenris.

He was the head of one of the deadliest offshore mercenary contractors in the world.

His resume included extracting high-value targets from active warzones and running suicidal escort missions.

He routinely accepted the kinds of blood-soaked contracts that even entrenched underground syndicates refused to touch.

Rumor had it that the Fenris Squad boasted a near-perfect operational success rate.

She hadn't expected Project Zero-Transit to hire the beast himself just to guard a shipment of biological cargo.

The ship's management clearly valued this operation far more than she had initially calculated.

None of these revelations cracked her mask. She merely gripped her medical kit tighter and leisurely continued down the hall.

Silas watched her move, his expression stiffening.
