Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire
Chapter 1664

Chapter 1664 Mission Accomplished

Once Lorraine had accomplished her mission, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly found a place to make a phone call.

"I've already handed the item to the other party. My mission is complete. Please settle the rest of the payment as soon as possible," Lorraine quickly said as soon as the call connected, not waiting for the person on the other end of the line to speak.

Upon hearing that, the Duke narrowed his eyes and hung up. A few seconds later, he transferred the rest of the payment to Lorraine.

Seeing the money come in, Lorraine slipped her phone into her pocket and began walking toward the apartment.

From now on, I will just be Arielle's chauffeur.

Her lips curved into a smile, and her eyes crinkled as that thought crossed her mind.

Meanwhile, Arielle raised the flash drive in her hand and asked, "What do you think is inside?"

Vinson shook his head. I can't guess what it is. All I know is that it can't be anything good.

"Let's go back and take a look." As he spoke, he put an arm around Arielle's shoulders and walked forward. She put the flash drive into her pocket, then started walking while snuggling close to him. After they returned to the apartment and washed up, Arielle took out the flash drive and plugged it into the laptop. Vinson leaned closer so they could see what was inside together.

It turned out that the flash drive contained technology from Moranta!

They exchanged glances, starting to doubt the identity of Lorraine's employer.

Who is he? Why did he give something so important to the queen mother? What deal did they strike between them?

Arielle's first thought was to go and ask Lorraine about her employer. But when she considered that those in that line of work would surely keep their employer's identity under wraps, she gave up on that thought. They would have to investigate her employer's identity by themselves.

The person who had contacted Lorraine was Monisha. As the queen mother's right-hand woman, she was in charge of handling many of the royal affairs.

When Monisha finally stirred in front of the palace gates, she immediately went looking for Lorraine to pass her the flash drive. But no matter how hard she searched, she could not replace the flash drive. Instantly knowing something was wrong, she rushed back to report Nancy, not even having time to clean herself up.

"Your Majesty, this is all because of my carelessness. I should've gotten more people to go with me." Monisha kneeled on the floor, overcome with remorse.

She could not believe someone had the audacity to rob her right before the palace gates.

Nancy looked grim. That flash drive was very important.

"Check the surveillance footage and see which direction they went!" Nancy instructed grimly.

With all the surveillance cameras around, I don't believe they can destroy every single one of them. While Nancy sent someone to check the surveillance cameras, Arielle was also thinking the same thing over at the apartment.

The contents of the flash drive are not just important to the queen mother but also Chanaea. Without a doubt, the queen mother will check the surveillance footage. With that thought in mind, she removed the flash drive. Then she hacked into the surveillance cameras along the route they had taken and deleted the section of footage that had caught them on camera.

After that, she put away the laptop, and she and Vinson began talking about Aaron.

Leaning into his arms, Arielle murmured, "I struggled before, wondering whether to acknowledge who he is. But now, both of us have no father. And because he fell for the queen mother's trap, it means that he murdered his own father. He's suffering more than me, and my heart can't help but suddenly ache for him. Regardless of whether I acknowledge him, he's my younger brother. The only brother I have related by blood."

Now that my father is gone, it's up to me-his older sister-to protect him. Even if the queen mother wants to push him around, she'll have to go through me.
