Chapter 1642
Alkaid was locked up in the base. These two days, in addition to eating and sleeping, she was always
ready to deal with Ward and the others.
But oddly enough, the base was unusually quiet for the past two days. Except for the people who
delivered the meals, Alkaid didn't see anyone else.
She went behind the door and put her ear against it to listen to the movements outside.
However, it was so quiet that only her breathing could be heard.
"Something's wrong. What's Ward up to?"
Alkaid frowned, thinking back to the day she was interrogated.
Ward wouldn't give up after he failed to get something out of her.
When Alkaid thought of this, her pupils shrank and her face changed slightly.
Could it be that he went to Selon?
She was a well-trained soldier, while Selon was just a weak doctor.
He would not be able to withstand the whipping.
The thought of that image made Alkaid worried.
"No!" Alkaid shook her head. "I can't let them hurt Selon."Then she looked around, her eyes narrowing slightly.
'How about sneaking out to see what's going on and check on Selon?'
The thought had just flashed through her mind before Alkaid vetoed it.
"No, no, no!"
She slapped her cheeks, pushing this crazy thought out of her head.
Right now, Sean must be carrying out his plans. Otherwise, he would not have gone to great lengths to
have someone deliver the message.
If Alkaid sneaked out, the Shepard family would be confirmed having betrayed the base.
"Then it will disrupt Master's plans..."
Alkaid walked around the room, mumbling as if this was the only way to dispel the idea.
Suddenly, she stopped and looked at the closed door again, her eyes clear.
No news was good news.
She should believe Selon could handle Ward's interrogation.
In the evening, someone from the base brought the meal in on time as usual.
Alkaid sat on the edge of the bed and watched expressionlessly as the person approached and placed
the food box on the table.
She thought that he would then leave.
Instead, he stepped up to her.She subconsciously raised her hand to defend herself.
At that moment, the man spoke.
"Don't make a move until Master gives orders."
He deliberately lowered his voice.
Hearing this, Alkaid was slightly stunned.
'Is Master so fast?
'He even planted this man here.'
Some people were guarding the door outside, so Alkaid did not ask any questions. She only nodded
imperceptibly and then took the meal.
The man who brought the food over soon left.
After the door was closed, Alkaid ate quietly.
This time, not surprisingly, she saw another note inside the meal.
There were a few words on it about the situation outside right now and the follow-up plans.
"Don't make a move until Master gives orders."
Alkaid finished reading it, feeling greatly relieved. She admired Sean even more.
In just two days, Sean had turned Ward's attention away.
She and Selon would not have trouble for the time being.Alkaid put her mind at rest, but at the same time, she got worried about the situation outside.
As a core member of the Grandset, she knew very well how much damage would be done by exposing
a port.
Alkaid felt guilty.
If she and Selon made the plan go awry, it would be a sin.
When Alkaid's heart was heavy, Selon also received the news.
Knowing that Alkaid was safe and that her injuries were gradually healing, he felt at ease.
Then, his eyes fell on the bottle that Molly had brought in...
