Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1565

When the scan finished, the system unsurprisingly flashed green.

Jerrick tossed the scanner to the nearby guard. "Clear."

Director Kaelen finally exhaled the breath he'd been holding. "Right this way, Madam Panacea."

They left the vault sector and stepped back into the opulent corridors of the ship.

Dawn had finally broken outside.

The temperature here was significantly warmer than the freezing vault.

Yet, the biting chill of the cryogenics still seemed to cling to their skin.

The silence held until they reached Serena's suite.

Director Kaelen's terminal chimed again.

He scanned the message and immediately turned to Serena. "Madam Panacea, you can go inside and freshen up. The Sterling Sovereign has confirmed he will be entering the viewing sector in thirty minutes."

"And, of course, for the continuous inconvenience, the ship will be transferring an additional two million dollars to your account as compensation."

The profound annoyance on Serena's face instantly receded. "Fine."

Director Kaelen added, "Also, The Sterling Sovereign is an Ultimate VIP, meaning the security protocol for the preview is vastly elevated. As his Specialized Medical Consultant, you'll need to wear a new, high-clearance access badge."

Serena scoffed. "Do you people have nothing better to do than hand out new name tags all day?"

Director Kaelen offered an apologetic smile. "It's strictly for your safety."

Serena waved him off impatiently. "Whatever. Just hurry it up."

She turned, and as if remembering something, shot a glance at Jerrick. "Is the Gatekeeper Hound going to be babysitting me at this preview, too?"

Jerrick looked down at her, his voice devoid of emotion. "If the ship commands it, yes."

Serena smiled brightly. "Well then, I'm honored."

"Don't be," Jerrick replied coldly.

Director Kaelen stood there, utterly exhausted.

He genuinely believed these two were going to murder each other before the voyage was over.

Serena couldn't be bothered to entertain them any longer. She stepped into her suite and slammed the door shut with a loud crack.

Left standing in the hallway, Director Kaelen rubbed the back of his neck and smiled awkwardly at the towering mercenary. "Mr. Fenris, please don't take it personally. The Panacea just has a very... intense personality. You—"
