Chapter 1794Once the sentence had been passed, Nancy’s anger drove her into hysteria. She would scream all day
in prison that she was still in charge.

Meanwhile, oblivious to the developments in Turlen, Arielle was focused on Micah’s acupuncture
treatment back in Irushea.
After an hour, she removed all the needles from his body and sterilized them before putting them back
into a box, which Micah had obtained for her.
“As for this packet of herbs, mix it with water at sixty degrees Celsius and let him soak in it every day
for a week. Once he has done that, stop for three days before repeating the process for another week.
Three days later, I’ll treat him with another session of acupuncture,” Arielle instructed as she pointed to
the packet on the table.
“When will General Micah wake up?” Abigail inquired.
After glancing at the sleeping Micah, Arielle informed Abigail that the former would regain his senses in
about half an hour.
novelbinIn truth, there was no need for him to be asleep during the acupuncture session. However, since Arielle
wanted to avoid any unnecessary interaction with him, she simply inserted an additional needle to
knock him out of consciousness.
“Mrs. Watson, I’ll be taking my leave now. Once General Micah wakes up, all you need to do is follow
the instructions I have given you.”
Just when Arielle was about to leave, Abigail stopped her.In response to Arielle’s frown, she gave the former a look of embarrassment. “Dr. Moore, when will you
be able to help treat me?”
“Does this mean you’ve agreed to my proposal?” Arielle asked with a cocked brow.
Abigail nodded. Initially, she wasn’t keen on doing so, as bringing someone out of the island wasjust
too troublesome. However, after she saw the way Micah looked at Arielle, she was stricken by panic,
for that was the same look Micah gave her back in the day.
As a result, she decided to agree to Arielle’s demands. As long as the latter could successfully treat
her, she would help Arielle leave the island.
Upon receiving Abigail’s agreement, Arielle breathed a discreet sigh of relief beneath her
expressionless face.
“I’ll come over to treat you three days later,” Arielle replied.
With her mind put at ease by the appointment, Abigail escorted Arielle out with a smile.
Initially, Arielle planned to treat Abigail before stating her additional demands of taking Vinson and
Lorraine along.
Little did she expect Vinson to have found another way to escape before her plan came to fruition.
That night, just as she lay down on bed, Vinson came to see her.
“Why did you come?” Vinson’s sudden appearance filled her eyes with elation.
When he caught the look in her eye, Vinson pulled her into his embrace and replied in a raspy voice, “I
missed you.”She had barely spoken when he planted his warm lips on hers. Wrapping her arms around his neck,
Arielle stood on tiptoes to reciprocate his kiss. With his lust ignited by her gesture, Vinson bent over
and carried her onto the bed. Soon, their clothes were strewn all over the floor.
“Sannie, I’m leaving the island tomorrow. Once I have the opportunity to get help, I’ll come back to
rescue you,” Vinson remarked two hours later with Arielle in his embrace.
Even though he was worried about leaving Arielle alone on the island, he knew he had to escape first.
Otherwise, there was no way he could bring Arielle and Lorraine out.
“Leave the island?” The delighted Arielle looked at him. “How are you going to manage it?”
Vinson then related the circumstances surrounding the opportunity. It turned out that the local
interpreter had died from an overdose of drugs, and a new interpreter was urgently needed for a
business negotiation.
Thus, when Vinson overheard Dennis‘ conversation with the person in charge, he came up with a
scheme for the latter to nominate him as an interpreter.
