The Beauty and the Brain by Natalie Jones novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200 

They went to the airport, and right after they left, Clayton’s men arrived. Looking at the house filled with energy drink bottles and cans, the room was messy as if it was a war. It was clear that the people living here were working day and night without slacking off. 

However, Clayton still couldn’t trust Marie easily. This woman was too mysterious, and he absolutely couldn’t allow such a potential threat to stay by Dennis ‘side. 

One of his subordinates came in and reported, “Boss, there’s news from the hospital 

that Cullen is awake, and Ms. Spence went to see him.” 

Clayton froze for a moment, then his expression turned cold as he said, “Go to the 

hospital!” 

As soon as they entered the ward, Clayton looked at Cullen coldly and asked, “Did your 

tell Marie about the location and situation of the accident?” 

Cullen looked at Clayton’s angry gaze, nodded silently, and said, “Mr. Philemon, you have your own thoughts, and Mr. Whitney has his own judgment. Since Mr. Whitney believes in Ms. Spence, then I believe her too.” 

“Foolish! Do you want to harm Dennis?” Clayton glared at him. 

Cullen clenched the blanket, and shook his head, saying, “Mr. Whitney’s life is uncertain but I believe Ms. Spence will bring him back.” 

Clayton was so angry that he wished he could rush up and punch Cullen right then. If it was true that Dennis’ disappearance really had something to do with Marie, then they would be like releasing the tiger back into the mountain, and no one would ever catch her again! 

After much effort, Clayton finally got the information from Cullen and tracked down the location of those people. Meanwhile, Marie and Luca had already flown to Brussels. 

As soon as she landed, Marie rechecked the information she had received before and 

soon found Dennis’ whereabouts. There was only one stronghold that showed frequent activity and increased security personnel. 

Marie asked Luca to buy guns from the black market. Luca grabbed her and asked, “What are you planning to do? Are you really going to swagger into their den like this?” 

Marie lowered her head as she inspected the guns in her hands, nodded, and replied, 

“Yes, is there a problem?” 

“No problem? With your petite figure, you’ll be lucky if you’re not reduced to bones. once you enter there. Do you think this is a movie?” Luca shouted. 

Marie put the gun away and pinned it behind her waist. Then, she took a small pistol and concealed it in her boots. She wore tight black trousers and a dark red leather jacket with a vibrant rose print on the chest. She untied her hair, and let her long hair down, flowing seductively behind her back. 

She flicked her hair and said, “Even you think I’m Rose, so I’ll play that role this time. This group of people has been doing business in France for so long. They must have heard of the name Rose, right?” 

“While that may be true, you’re still not Rose after all! If something happens to you, how do I explain it to Emory and the others?” Luca anxiously paced around the room. 

The dart in Marie’s hand reflected a dazzling light. With a flick of her hand, the dart firmly stuck into the wall. She put on a half-black mask that she had prepared, revealing her lips with a hint of a smile, saying, “Now, I am Rose.” 

She grabbed Luca and said, “I can’t wait for Emory and the others to arrive. You stay here to meet them and when everyone is gathered, come to support me. Luca, Dennis ist 

inside. I have to go.” 

The gaze in Marie’s eyes was resolute, reminiscent of the commanding Rose who once gave orders to them. It was unshakable and unquestionable. 

Marie stepped out of the door, where a newly-bought motorcycle was parked. She straddled it and sped away. Luca had never been so worried before. If anything happened to her, none of them would be able to face Rose. 

The motorbike drove all the way into the forests, beyond the forest was the stronghold. 

There were several rows of residential houses inside. Behind the houses was a hilly 

gorge with a river, and in front was the forest. It could be said to be easy to defend but 

difficult to attack. 

off 

Two people stood guard at the entrance with guns in their hands. Marie raced toward 

them on the motorcycle. Just before they could shoot, she stopped steadily and got the motorcycle. Dennis collapsed onto the ground with a thug. She brushed off the dust 

from her body and spoke in French, “I’m here to see for your boss.” 

One of them looked at her and was hesitant to make a move. After all, in a place like this, a young girl coming alone shouldn’t be an ordinary person. 

The other person held the gun in his hand and pointed at Marie, cursing, “Who are you? Are you here to die?” 

With a bloodthirsty and enchanting smile on her face, she raised her delicate hand and beckoned to the man. The man walked over with a smile. Marie fiercely grabbed the gun from his hand and struck him on the head with the grip handle of the gun, leaving behind a trail of crimson blood. She held the gun against his head and said to the other man, “Go tell your boss that the international assassin Rose is here to talk business. 

with him.” 

The man ran into the house. Not long after, a bald man surrounded by a group of people ran out. Seeing Marie holding a gun next to the motorcycle, he asked, “Are you Rose?” 

“Since you’ve heard of me, I’ll be straight to the point. Do you know Jake, the firearms. trafficker in Europe?” 

The bald man nodded and asked, “I know him, what business do you want to discuss?” 

“I intercept his goods, give them to you, and give me the man,” said Marie. 

She had never seen Jake before, only heard of him. She made up a random deal to infiltrate this place. 

The bald man squinted his eyes and looked at her. This deal is indeed very tempting. Rose is an internationally renowned top assassin. With her help, this business would be halfway to success. However, the problem is that a masked woman suddenly rushed here to work with me. Isn’t that a bit strange? 

The man said, “You’re wearing a mask. How do I know if you’re really Rose?” 

Marie smiled, her lips curling upward. She said, “You don’t have to lie to me. Even if I take off my mask, you wouldn’t recognize me because you’ve never seen me at before.” 

The bald man froze for a moment and said, “How can you prove that you are Rose?” 

She pushed away the man beside her, raised her gun, and aimed it at the bald man. Several people around him immediately raised their guns at her. The man waved his 

hand, and the people hesitated before lowering their guns. 

Get Borus 

Bang! With one shot, Marie shot down the fruit hanging from the tree behind the bald man. She was cold-blooded and precise. 

With a cold expression, she said, “If it works, then let’s cooperate. If not, then forget it. Why waste time?” 

The bald man was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud and said, “Miss Rose, how could it not work when you grace us with your presence? I’m happy to work with
