"That's right. You're her son, and it's most fitting for you to go,” Rhea’s gentle voice enchanted Ross, leaving him unable to say no.
"Yes, I'm her son. I should be the one who finds her," Ross said, nodding.
Rhea smiled, knowing she had proved herself. She stressed, "Go to sleep then. You'll depart early tomorrow, okay? Remember that.”
"Okay!" Ross answered, nodding again.
Rhea then tapped on the bottle to make it ring. Ross blinked, then fell asleep for real this time.
Rhea got up and strolled out of the room. Someone soon brought her to Fred's office, where he waited.
Since Ross demanded removing the surveillance devices from his room, Fred could not see what happened. Fred looked at Rhea, questioning, "Did it work?"
"Congratulations, Your Grace. You got what you wanted," Rhea said, bowing respectfully.
Fred was thrilled because he could control Ross and target anyone through the drug and Rhea's hypnosis. Although Fred was more interested in the invisibility potion, he was content with putting certain people under his control.
