Chapter 275 Mission (3)



At precisely 5 PM, Scarlett emerged from her bedroom, looking drastically different. 

pαndα---noνɐ1,сoМ She had put on a wavy, long blonde wig and wore a beautiful diamond necklace around her neck.  She wears heavy makeup — bold lipstick and eye makeup — to change her whole appearance so that she looks different. Not just "different," but different, like completely looking like another person.

Her outfit left Seven and Nine speechless; she was dressed in a gold V-neck Sequined Straps formal gown with a slit on the thigh and an open back, revealing her rarely exposed curves.

"Wow! Little sister Scarlett, I didn't think you could pull off this look! You look elegant, beautiful, mature, and sexy," Nine exclaimed in surprise, averting his eyes from her chest area.

Seven agreed with Nine, though he had seen Scarlett dressed up many times before. This time, she was stunning in her gold dress. She looked as elegant as a goddess yet still exudes sexiness without being too vulgar. He was sure all eyes would be on her when they arrived at the party.

Scarlett felt a little embarrassed but was also secretly pleased with Nine compliments. She knew that her disguise had to be convincing if they were to complete their mission successfully. 

"Thank you, Brother Nine. Thank you for your compliment," Scarlett forcedly smiled at Nine because she was struggling with her high heels. She hated wearing them!

"Three, do you think your sexy look will be enough to trap Dax Withers?" Seven chuckled as he approached Scarlett with slow steps, taking in her appearance from head to toe.

"Of course! Dax Withers may not be seen in public often, but I know he's surrounded by beauty. He just keeps it hidden from the media radar," Scarlett replied, smiling as she thought about her plans for the night. All she needed to do was use her beauty to attract Dax. It was that simple!

"Tsk! If your beloved husband catches a glimpse of your revealing dress, I guarantee he'll put you under house arrest forever!" Those seven words caused Scarlett's body to freeze in an instant.

"Xander..." Scarlett's steps halted as his face filled her mind. She had forgotten to recheck her cell phone and whether or not Xander had already read her text. But she couldn't check now; she had left her personal cell phone in her room.

She shook her head quickly, attempting to refocus on her mission. She could call Xander later, once she returned from the party.

"Seven, let's go!" Scarlett scolded Seven. "We could be late!" She didn't want any distractions and simply wanted to finish this mission quickly and retrieve what she needed.

"Damn! You're right, we might be late. Let's go!" Seven exclaimed, hastening his pace towards the entrance. He trailed behind Nine, who had already taken the lead.

"I'll be your driver today, Mr. Harvey Roger and Mrs. Tanya Rogers," Nine announced with a practiced air of a chauffeur, opening the car door for Scarlett. As she struggled with her high heels while making her way to the car, Nine flashed her a smile.

Seven halted in his steps just as he was about to get into the car, his attention drawn to Scarlett. "Hey, Three, did you forget your coat?" he asked with concern.

The weather was bitterly cold, and Scarlett was dressed in clothes that left little to the imagination. Seven worries that Scarlett might catch a cold if she doesn't wear her coat.

"Ugh! I forgot..." Scarlett said and was about to turn around to go inside but stopped when Nine stopped her. 

"I've prepared it in the car!" Said Nine. "Hurry, Scarlett, get in the car. You will freeze to death if you walk too slowly!"

Scarlett was very surprised by Nine's perfect preparations. "Thanks, Brother Nine," she said with a smile before making her way quickly to the waiting car. She settled herself in the back seat next to Seven.

Tonight, Scarlett and Seven will be attending the wedding of Axel Hill, the CEO of Hill Group and son of one of the top military officers in this country, as invited guests from country M.

As the car pulled away from the Fox base camp, Seven couldn't help but look worried at Scarlett. He had noticed that she seemed tense since their vehicle was heading to the party. She didn't say anything at all.

Seven cleared his throat before speaking. "Three, I know how capable you are, but this is our first time working on an assignment that involves your personal matters. I hope you can remain objective and not let your emotions cloud your judgment," he cautioned.

Seven warned Scarlett because he didn't want this simple mission to get complicated, especially since Nine was their backup plan. He didn't want innocent people to get caught up in their actions.

Although Fox was known as a ruthless organization, they did not kill indiscriminately. Their targets were primarily villains who had evaded the law, not innocent people. Moreover, they never took a life without a valid reason.

Scarlett was surprised to hear Seven's sentence; his voice sounded grave. She looked at him and smiled to reassure him. She said, "I know! Don't worry about me..." 

She knew she couldn't act rashly at this party because the host of this party was no ordinary person — Axel Hills comes from the second most respected family in this country. They had to carry out this mission quickly and smoothly without attracting attention, especially the big shoot in this country.

"It's good that you understand, Three!" Seven chuckled, feeling relieved that Scarlett was taking the mission seriously.

"Jeez, my dear husband Harvey Roger, it's not me you should be worried about, but yourself! How could you forget your wife's name?" Scarlett rolled her eyes at Seven.

She laughed at Seven's shocked expression. However, her laughter slowly faded after recalling this mission. She shifted her gaze outside the car to calm her nerves.

"..." 

Seven was momentarily speechless, unsure how to respond to Scarlett's comment.
