I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1021

"The reason she's trapped is because Falcon's methods are insidious. She accidentally fell into his trap. It has nothing to do with her abilities," Collin defended.

Floyd's mouth twitched, "How do you know that?"

"She's my boss, of course I know," Collin replied, unwilling to continue the conversation.

"Alright, let's rescue them. No need to discuss this any further," Floyd shrugged. "Some people just can't handle the truth."

Collin's fist clenched, and he turned to glare at Floyd. "Shut up! Stop talking."

He would have loved to punch Floyd if it weren't for their current situation. Despite the cooperation, members of the Dark Knight Organization were still just as annoying, doing nothing but provoking others.

Floyd glanced at him briefly and decided not to push further after seeing Collin struggling to control his emotions. "Fine, I'll stop arguing with you."

"Fine, truce! Until we rescue my boss, I won't say anything to you!" Collin glared at him once more, then turned and walked briskly ahead, clearly trying to put some distance between them. But considering their cooperation, he eventually slowed down to let Floyd catch up.

Whatever, Collin thought. Saving his boss was more important now, and he didn't want to waste energy bickering with someone like Floyd.

Seeing Collin's actions, Floyd regarded him with rare admiration. Collin showed great composure, indicating that his boss had taught him well. Floyd now acknowledged that Collin's boss was indeed formidable.

Meanwhile, Falcon was hurriedly packing, which left his accomplices bewildered. "Didn't you say they were trapped? Why not go and finish them off? Why the rush to escape?"

"Are you stupid? If we don't run now, we'll get caught," Falcon said, packing quickly. "I know our boss's capabilities better than anyone. If we go there, we'll get counterattacked for sure! And they must have people outside. If we don't escape now, it'll be too late."

His accomplices remained skeptical, "Is your boss really that strong? If so, how did you manage to steal the chip?"

"That's because she wasn't around at the time!" Falcon didn't want to waste more time explaining. "I know our boss better than anyone. Trust me, or we'll all be finished! Our goal is the chip and the money."

Falcon's serious expression convinced his accomplices. "Alright, let's go with your plan. Hurry and pack!"

At that moment, another accomplice exclaimed, "We're done for! I just saw the estate surrounded by people. They’re from the Dark Knight Organization and the Nidhogg Organization!"

"They both mobilized?" The accomplice frowned at Falcon. "What now?"

"See? I told you we should've left sooner. Now we can’t escape!" Falcon looked at the narrow hole in the basement and said, "We'll crawl through the rat hole. Keep your bodies as small as possible—it's our only way out."
