Chapter 1790 He Is So Popular
Lorraine raised her head immediately when she heard the familiar voice. The moment she was greeted by the sight of Arielle, she felt the urge to go up and hug the latter. However, being conscious of her situation, she held back the desire to do so.
It wasn’t until she scanned the area and was certain both of them were alone that her mind was put at ease.
“Boss, thank God you’re alive. I was worried sick about you,” she remarked softly, her voice trembling. All of a sudden, the usually cold and aloof Lorraine reached out to hug Arielle.
Ever since Vinson and she were rescued, both of them were concerned for Arielle, for they didn’t know where she was and had no idea whether she even managed to survive.
Consequently, she was overwhelmed by emotions when she found out that Arielle was alive and was on the same island as them.
“Lorraine, is Vinson also here?” Arielle asked when she recalled her speculation.
Lorraine responded with a nod before explaining Vinson’s situation to her.
As Arielle had already learned of Anna’s interest in Vinson, she let out a snort.
Girls everywhere just love to throw themselves at him. There’s Nico in Turlen, and here, we have Anna. Why are women so attracted to married men? They know he’s married, yet they’re still after him.
Arielle felt as if her view of the world had changed.
“I heard that he’s at the plantation too. Do you know where is he now?” Arielle inquired.
Lorraine nodded before pointing to where Vinson was working.
“Lorraine, I’m going over to see Vinson. We need to discuss how to leave this place.”
It wasn’t until she arrived at the plantation did she understand why they were forbidden from leaving or using any communication devices.
The reason was that the plantation was filled with cannabis plants. Considering that they were on an island that farmed drug crops, the rigid rules now totally made sense.
“Mmm-hmm, be careful.” Lorraine watched Arielle leave with reluctance.
From there, Arielle headed in the direction that Lorraine had pointed. Not wanting to reveal that she was searching for someone, Arielle pretended to stroll around, admiring the scenery. As a result, the manager at the plantation couldn’t care less about her presence.
General Micah has just taken in a beautiful wife. Considering how stunning this new face is, she must definitely be General Micah’s new wife. The general has always been possessive about his women. Hence, I had better stay out of her way.
With that thought in mind, he inadvertently provided Arielle and Vinson with a lot of time to interact with each other. However, Arielle hadn’t managed to locate Vinson yet and was looking everywhere with a frown.
Suddenly, her gaze froze in a particular direction when she saw a familiar silhouette. Without realizing it, her eyes were already moist. Even though Lorraine had informed her that Vinson was all right, she still couldn’t hold her emotions back.
As if he could sense her presence, Vinson—who was busy toiling away—looked up at the same instant. At the sight of the person whom he longed for every waking moment, his eyes lit up while his heart pounded furiously.
Meanwhile, inside the palace back at Turlen, Aaron’s heart sank after hearing Morrison’s report. He lowered his voice and ordered Morrison to do something.
His instructions caused the latter to hesitate. “Your Majesty…”
