Chapter 1798 Throw Them Into The Sea
“Please let General Micah know that I’m not feeling well, so I won’t be attending the banquet today,” Arielle said to the female housekeeper after contemplating briefly.
The housekeeper was caught in a difficult position. She was merely a messenger. If Micah decided to place the blame on someone for Arielle’s reluctance to attend the banquet, he would certainly find fault with the housekeeper, so she was afraid to pass on Arielle’s reply.
“Ms. Moore, I’m afraid General Micah will be mad and hold me accountable for telling him this,” the female housekeeper uttered while gazing downward.
Arielle was slightly stunned. That’s right. How can I allow her to shoulder this blame?
“I got it. I will head over later. You may leave first.”
Hearing Arielle’s acceptance to attend the banquet, the female housekeeper responded delightfully, “Okay!”
Arielle’s face turned somber after the housekeeper left. She got up, walked to the dressing table, and took out the medicinal powder. Then, she separated the powder into two handfuls and kept it in her pocket before taking the silver-plated needles Micah had custom-made for her. Only then did she go downstairs. However, instead of going to the banquet, Arielle carefully dodged the housekeepers and went to the slave camp.
“Boss!” Lorraine had a sense of foreboding when she saw Arielle visiting at that time.
“This is a medicinal powder I made. You can consume this powder half an hour after I leave.” Lorraine nodded without hesitation after Arielle handed her the medicinal powder. Arielle could not help but curl her lips into a smile at the sight of Lorraine’s absolute trust in her. It feels good to be trusted by someone else.
As Arielle could not stay long at the slave camp, she informed Lorraine about a few things and hastily left.
Meanwhile, Anna snorted while staring at the man in front of her.
He’s quite capable. He became Daddy’s VIP after going out with Dennis. Still, the more he proves his worth, the more I want him to be mine. I will never let him go this time.
At that thought, Anna whispered beside Amy’s ear. The latter grunted in response before retreating.
“Gaspar, did you prepare all the goods before coming here this time?” Micah asked while grinning at that man named Gaspar Rhaylie.
Gaspar nodded and chirped, “I wouldn’t dare to meet you if I didn’t come prepared.”
Micah was thrilled to hear that all the goods were ready. He had recently struck a huge deal but did not have sufficient stock on hand. Therefore, Micah contacted Gaspar to borrow some of the latter’s stock.
“All right. We’ll celebrate your arrival today and check the goods tomorrow.” Micah raised his wine glass and clinked it with Gaspar’s as he spoke.
After placing down his glass, Micah glanced around the lobby. He could not help but frown when he sensed Arielle’s absence. Abigail, who had been paying attention to Micah, noticed the change in his facial expression. She strode over, sat in front of him, and asked him if anything was wrong.
“Why is Dr. Moore not here? I sent someone to invite her over, right?” His voice sounded a little hoarse. At that moment, Micah yearned to meet with Arielle after drinking some alcohol.
Abigail’s heart sank after knowing Micah had invited Arielle. It seems like I made the right decision by agreeing to help Arielle leave this island. Otherwise, with her looks and medical skills, there will be no room left for me in Micah’s heart.
“I’ll ask the servant to check on Dr. Moore.” Abigail patted Micah’s hand before getting to her feet. When she sensed Gaspar looking in her direction, she nodded courteously before turning around gracefully and leaving.
After stepping out of the lobby, she instructed the maid beside her to invite Arielle over from the mansion.
Twenty minutes later, the maid assigned to invite Arielle returned to the banquet hall in a panic. Considering the presence of the other guests, she did not dare to make a scene, so she merely whispered beside Abigail’s ear.
Abigail narrowed her eyes. After thinking for a few seconds, she uttered coldly to the maid, “Throw them into the sea!”
