Chapter 1618 Impossible To Capture
“What—” Before Vinson could blurt out a word, Arielle had already opened the door and rushed out of the car. Vinson hurriedly ran after her, but just a short distance away, he saw her sullenly making her way back, her brows tightly knitted.
“What is wrong? What did you see?” he asked.
“I saw a woman who resembles Sonia’s kidnapper. Too bad I could not catch up with her.” Arielle was visibly upset and in disbelief. No one had managed to escape from her before, and she had finally met her match.
“I thought she escaped. Why is she back?” Vinson’s eyes narrowed, confused as well.
“Why don’t you send Sonia a message to forewarn her? Her father is the powerful General of the Right, so he will be able to capture that woman in no time,” he added as they walked back to the car.
As soon as Arielle got back into their car, she immediately took out her phone and sent Sonia a message.
Upon receiving that news, Sonia immediately informed Lawrence. She did not bother to trouble Harvey as he was a foreigner and did not have as many resources or support locally to hunt for that woman.
Lawrence had been hunting for that kidnapper in the past few days but to no avail. He was grateful that Arielle bumped into her and provided him with such a useful lead. He immediately sent his men to that area to conduct a search, confident he would find the kidnapper soon.
Sonia thanked Arielle for her help and informed her that her father’s men were already on their way to that area.
Lorraine, on the run from Lawrence’s men, had been staying in the slum areas in Turlen. She did not dare to step into any hotels for fear that Lawrence’s men were keeping a close watch on those places.
She deeply regretted her rash decision to kidnap Sonia and sneak into the Wynter residence to steal the bag. In hindsight, if she had been honest with Sonia and requested an exchange of the bags, Sonia would likely have agreed. However, it was too late, and she had already made the terrible mistake.
With Lawrence’s men hot on her heels, it was doubly hard for her to accomplish the mission she was assigned.
She broke out in a cold sweat as she recalled her narrow escape from Arielle. She was about to go on her mission after evading Lawrence’s men when she was discovered by Arielle. If not for her alertness and superb speed, she would have ended up in jail already.
She took in a deep breath to calm her nerves and decided it would be wiser for her to lie low for a while. She reasoned it would be safer for her to remain in hiding for the time being. With that in mind, she hurriedly made her way back to her hiding place.
However, soon she sensed something was amiss and became uneasy, as the place suddenly became unusually crowded. Although the people around were in plain clothes, she could not help but fear that Lawrence’s men were amongst them.
She ducked into a nearby public toilet, opened her backpack, and started changing into her disguise. Examining herself in the mirror, she was satisfied with her new disguise as a man in his mid-twenties, confident no one would recognize her anymore.
She quickly packed up her things, looked around carefully, and hurried out of the toilet after making sure no one was around. Disguised as a man, she had to be careful not to be mistaken as a pervert lurking in the women’s toilet.
Arielle and Vinson reached the palace and met up with Dylan. When Dylan got to know who she really was and that her earlier rumored death was staged, he was overwhelmed by emotions.
That made Arielle a little hesitant to continue her story, worried he would not be able to handle the truth.
