Chapter 1722 Fall Into Our Net
“I can’t sleep well in new places. I’m a light sleeper. My grandma gave me this to help me sleep before I
came. She said I could just put them under my pillow when I went to bed, and I’d fall asleep in five
minutes. There are no side effects. Do you want some? I can give you half,” Arielle explained slowly
and calmly.
“Can I really have half of it? Will it be less effective?” Morse was moved by the offer because he had
never received anything from Arielle. In fact, he would be more than happy to receive just anything
from her.
Arielle nodded with a smile. “It’s okay. The effect might be diminished, but I can put up with that. I don’t
mind giving you half.” She took the packet from him and started looking for a container.
“It’s okay. I don’t have trouble sleeping. You can keep it,” Morse said, grabbing her hand.
Arielle furrowed her brows as she stared at Morse’s hand. The man trailed her gaze and became
conscious of the warmth coming from Arielle’s hand. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to.” He retracted his hand
and fled from her room.
Arielle’s eyes darkened as she watched him leave. It seems that Professor Hoffmeister has realized
that the document is missing and is looking into the matter.
Arielle smirked coldly. There’s no way I’m letting all of you off the hook.
Outside, Morse clutched his chest as he rushed out of Arielle’s room. He took a few deep breaths to
calm down, and after a few minutes, he went back to Torsten to inform him that he did not find the drug.
Torsten was not surprised at the outcome. He had expected the thief to destroy any form of evidence,
and searching Arielle’s room was just to try his luck.
“What should we do next?” Norma asked in vexation. “Where should we begin our search?”
“Let me think about it,” Torsten replied, gesturing for them to leave him alone.
Meanwhile, since Arielle had already gotten her hands on the criminal evidence, she figured it was time
for her to leave. She texted Vinson and asked him to pick her up at six in the evening the following day.
Arielle set to action during dinner time when the next day arrived. While the cooks were making stew
for the children, she sneaked to a remote corner and sprinkled some drugs into the dishes.
When the clock struck five thirty, everyone gathered at the cafeteria for dinner. Arielle was alerted when
Torsten and Norma did not show up. Just as she was devising a plan to dope them, the two appeared,
and she could finally rest easy.
It only took half an hour for the drug effect to kick in, and everyone in the cafeteria dropped. Arielle
phoned Vinson, and the latter arrived in ten minutes.
“Are you all right?” Vinson asked.
“I’m good. Can we bring everyone here with us except for the two cooks?”
Vinson nodded and instructed the ten men he brought with him to tie everyone up before putting them
in the car while he and Arielle went to fetch the four children.
Each of the children went into different cars, along with the professor and his team bound up.
On the way, Arielle looked at Vinson and said, “Now that things have finally ended, we’ll just have to
wait for the queen mother to fall into our net.” Arielle was relieved that she could finally avenge her
parents and that they could go home at last.
She felt that so much had happened over the year. She had reconnected with her biological father and
lost him within that period.
Reading Arielle’s mind, Vinson squeezed her hand tight. He understood that things had been difficult
for Arielle.
Back at the palace, Aaron was elated when he heard the news from Arielle.
