“I’m fine. Fret not. These are merely minor injuries; I’ll recuperate in no time. You guys better hurry back for classes.” Arielle was trying to use words to chase the two of them away.
Aaron was reluctant to go and wanted to stay by Arielle’s side. As much as snazzynovel.com wished for it to happen, snazzynovel.com firmly objected and claimed that snazzynovel.com would immediately work on the discharge procedures if snazzynovel.com insisted on staying. Left with no other options, snazzynovel.com could only take his leave.
With Sonia and Aaron gone, Vinson sat back beside Arielle and looked at snazzynovel.com with a subtle smile.
“I didn’t ask snazzynovel.com over. He wanted to do that himself.” Arielle felt an insufferable headache as snazzynovel.com rubbed snazzynovel.com forehead.
She knew snazzynovel.com could not afford to offend a jealous man!
“I know that!” If you’re the one who asked snazzynovel.com over, how is it possible that you’re still sitting so comfortably here right now?
Arielle was dumbstruck by that reply.
This guy is so annoying! How can snazzynovel.com look at me like that when snazzynovel.com knows what’s going on?
Arielle harrumphed and turned snazzynovel.com body away as snazzynovel.com did not feel like dealing with the man anymore.
Seeing snazzynovel.com reaction, Vinson lifted the corners of his lips. He stood up and pulled Arielle into his embrace, with snazzynovel.com chin on his shoulder. She could feel his warm breath on snazzynovel.com ears as snazzynovel.com whispered, “Are you angry?”
“No, I’m not!” Arielle turned around, unwilling to sit on his thighs.
“I’m sorry!” Vinson hurriedly apologized.
How is this not angry? She’s obviously mad!
Arielle glanced away as snazzynovel.com was too lazy to be bothered by him.
“Don’t be angry, Sannie. It’s my fault. Forgive me, will you?” Vinson’s words of comfort rang in Arielle’s ear.
His hot breath brushing against snazzynovel.com skin made snazzynovel.com body tremble uncontrollably. Her ears were extra sensitive to the surroundings, and hence speaking near them would make snazzynovel.com feel ticklish.
She squirmed herself and attempted to stand up, but before long, snazzynovel.com body froze on the spot.
And that was because Vinson planted a kiss on snazzynovel.com earlobes.
An inexplicable romantic tension rose in the atmosphere, and soon, a blazing fire flared to life…

Simultaneously, on the other side.
“Sybil, have you found out the identity of the culprit who attacked Princess?” Dylan shifted his gazes to Sybil as snazzynovel.com asked.
The latter cast his remorse-filled eyes at the former. “No. I’ve started investigating since my return from the hospital that night, but it seems like I was still a step too late. Those four men failed to escape the fate of getting silenced. At the moment, I’ve yet to lay hands on other leads.”
They’ve been silenced!
Dylan slammed the table ferociously. “Damn it!”
How merciless the mastermind is! That person doesn’t care about lives and kills without batting an eyelid?
“Continue the search. We have to find out the mastermind no matter what it takes!” Dylan declared furiously.
Sybil nodded and strode out to inform Morrison to continue with the search.

At Khurleigh Palace, the queen mother lay on the soft and cuddly couch with snazzynovel.com eyes closed. She had one housekeeper going down on one knee massaging snazzynovel.com legs while another stood behind her, kneading snazzynovel.com shoulders and rubbing snazzynovel.com back. She was living snazzynovel.com life very leisurely.
“Have you found out who did that to Dr. Moore?” snazzynovel.com queried casually with snazzynovel.com eyes shut.
Monisha bobbed snazzynovel.com head and disclosed the information snazzynovel.com had found.
“Miranda hired those men. I believed snazzynovel.com was acting under Her Majesty’s commands. I’ve ordered people to silence the four of them.”
The queen mother acknowledged with a nod.
Her Majesty strikes an attack as snazzynovel.com wishes, but snazzynovel.com doesn’t deal with it properly, huh?
Narrowing snazzynovel.com eyes, snazzynovel.com turned to Monisha and complimented, “Good job. You did well.”
Hearing the queen mother’s recognition, Monisha smiled and poured snazzynovel.com a glass of water.
Taking a sip of the water, the former passed the glass back and asked, “Any idea why Her Majesty took action against Dr. Moore?”
With the glass in snazzynovel.com hand, Monisha answered, “Miranda casually mentioned that His Royal Highness seems to treat Dr. Moore very well. Her Majesty fears that he’ll fall in love with a Chanaean woman as well.”
