Marissa replied, "Go ahead, Captain Williamson." Elvis continued, "Last night, Mr. Alvarado brought Clarissa back to the Sunrise as well and conducted a personal interrogation. He also dug into her activities while she was president of the Peridot Consortium through various contacts and means.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSurprisingly, he uncovered numerous issues. After the questioning and investigation, Mr. Alvarado was outraged and askedto explain things to you.
Mr. Alvarado had instructed Clarissa to feign cooperation with Q to uncover the reasons behind Q's interest in the chip. He had never intended for Clarissa to genuinely collaborate with Q or to engage in creating harmful substances.
Mr. Alvarado is deeply upset about this and has taken strict action against Clarissa. He wants to ensure you understand that he does not engage in harmful activities and cares deeply about maintaining his good image in your view." Marissa read the message and felt no shock. Xander had already briefed her about this before their operation at Skytop Mansion. She was, however, slightly taken aback by how much Paul valued his reputation in her eyes.

Upon learning this, Mr. Alvarado was livid, punished Clarissa severely, removed her from her role as president of the Peridot Consortium, and confined her to a dark room for introspection.
Although your mother is fine and Clarissa faced severe consequences, Mr. Alvarado is still distressed and wants to apologize to you. He had made it clear to his subordinates in Blebert not to harm Tiffany before, aiming to protect you. He regrets that his directive nearly backfired, causing you potential harm, and he is now blaming himself." Marissa responded, "Captain Williamson, please extend my gratitude to Mr. Alvarado for his concern. I'm not angry with him for Clarissa's actions, so he need not feel guilty." Marissa had never planned to share her issues with Clarissa with Paul. She felt that disputes between women should be settled by the women involved. However, since Paul had already addressed it, she chose to step back from Clarissa's matter.
Elvis then messaged, “Marissa, the Peridot Consortium is currently leaderless. Mr. Alvarado is asking if you would consider taking over as president. What are your thoughts?" Marissa was taken aback and typed, as the president of the Peridot Consortium?" Elvis simply replied, "Yes." Marissa questioned, "I'm not even part of Paul's group. How can I becthe president of the Peridot Consortium?" After posing the question, she humorously added, "Is Paul trying to getto do his bidding?" Elvis responded with a smiling emoji, “Marissa, you know how much Mr. Alvarado values you. He would never exploit you. He just wants to seize every chance to dote on you.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMr. Alvarado thinks that since you're already investigating Q, using the title of president of the Peridot Consortium could facilitate contact with Q. Clarissa had been using this role to communicate with Q for years, which would make Q less suspicious of you.
Mr. Alvarado also assured that you would have complete control over the affairs of the Peridot Consortium and that he would not meddle. But, if you ever need his support, he's ready to assist immediately."
Marissa paused to think. Elvis's explanation made sense. Adopting the role of the Peridot Consortium's el president to approach Q could indeed help her gather more intelligence. This position proved to be quite beneficial for her current situation. Paul's readiness to entrust such a significant organization to her indicated his deep trust and favor. She was puzzled by his strong liking towards her.
Yet, she reminded herself not to overthink it. Human emotions aren enigmatic. She had felt an immediate connection with Paul herself during their first casual conversation.
After reflecting, she responded to Elvis, "I'm open to leading the Peridot Consortium, but it's a vast organization with iintricate operations. I'd be stepping into unfamiliar territory if I took charge. Could Mr. Alvarado possibly arrange for someone to act as president temporarily?" Elvis replied, "Mr. Alvarado would like Kevin to assist you in managing the Peridot Consortium. How does that sound?"
