Chapter 1269 Followed

After handing her phone to Salvador, Arielle gave Sasha some brief instructions and waited patiently to head to the venue.

Donovan had been keeping an eye on her secretly. At the sight of the wide smile on her face, he felt his heart skip a beat. He had a sudden desire to pull her into his arms.

I thought I loathed Arielle, but it turns out that I've never forgotten her!

Queenie didn't know they had to head to Mount Blackcloud, and she glanced at her feet before turning to Cornelius. "Cor, it is hard for me to enter the mountain alone. Can Don keep me company?"

Cornelius shot her a conflicted look in response. Contestants were supposed to complete the mission alone, but Queenie was an exception. The mountain was steep and treacherous, and she couldn't head in alone.

"Mr. Mill, please allow Mr. Baxter to keep Ms. Queenie company. We understand that she needs help."

Most contestants were reasonable enough. There were a few who were against Donovan keeping Queenie company, but most had agreed. Thus, they had to keep their dissatisfaction to themselves. As no one stood out to express their disapproval, Cornelius nodded and agreed to it.

"Queenie can't walk, so if something happens, give me a call immediately instead of trying to cheat. After the test ends, we'll check your phone. If we replace out that you cheated, I'll disqualify Queenie at once." Queenie's expression darkened. "Cor, do you seriously think I'll cheat?"

He's my brother! How could he say that in front of Arielle? Furious, she harrumphed icily and wheeled herself away.

After Donovan was expelled from Maxwell University, his future was ruined, so he had no choice but to stick to the Mill family.

He immediately stopped staring at Arielle and went after Queenie, who was in her wheelchair.

An hour later, everyone arrived at Mount Blackcloud.

The large mountain spanned a wide area. Upon arrival, the contestants headed in immediately.

As there were many routes, everyone soon went on different paths.

Although there were many medical experts, Queenie only feared Arielle.

After all, Cornelius recognized Arielle's medical skills, so she knew the latter must be very capable for someone like her brother to acknowledge her.

After Queenie found out that Arielle was capable of handling a pacemaker placement surgery independently, her intimidation of Arielle increased significantly.

"Darling, I've been to Mount Blackcloud a few times, so I'm familiar with the area. Just keep an eye on Arielle. I can't let her become the next head of the Mill family!" Queenie gritted through her teeth.

As Donovan wanted the Mills' medical manuscripts, it was only natural that he obeyed Queenie. Tamping down his dislike for her, he pressed a kiss to her forehead. "Be careful, then. Your safety is of utmost importance."

Queenie's eyes crinkled up in happiness after she received his kiss. "I know. Don't you worry. Go keep an eye on her, but make sure she doesn't notice you."

Nodding, Donovan reminded her to be careful yet again before going in the direction Arielle went.

Meanwhile, Arielle took a desolate path into the woods.

After hearing Cornelius say that they would be heading to Mount Blackcloud to get the herbs, she decided to head into the depths of the mountain. The deeper she went, the more herbs she would replace.
