Chapter 1221 The Bait

“Arielle, actually” Right when Jason was about to confess his feelings, Arielle broke free from his grasp and interrupted his speech.

“Thank you for speaking up for me, Jason. However, things are not as they seemed to be. There’re some misunderstandings here. I’m very grateful for your help, but you can leave now.”

With that, she turned around and was heading back inside.

At that precise moment, she saw a familiar figure standing across the street from the corners of her eyes. Isn’t that…

Suddenly, her memories of what happened on the cruise came surging back. That’s the man! Could it be? The man who has been trying to assassinate Vinson is the man I’ve met on the cruise?

Seeing that, Arielle abruptly stopped in her tracks. The plan is ongoing, and he’s right in front of me! I can’t deviate from the plan now!

Arielle gritted her teeth and pretended like she didn’t notice that man. She turned toward Jason and said, “I’m in a bad mood, and I’d like to go for a walk. Do you have somewhere in mind?”

Jason was over the moon upon hearing that. “Yes! I’ll take you there!” he answered hastily.

“Okay, then. Thank you.” Arielle nodded before following Jason into a taxi.

After getting into the car, Arielle immediately turned back and looked across the street.

Indeed, she saw the man getting into a car as well before tailing them.

“What are you looking at?” Jason couldn’t help but keep looking at the back.

As Jason was about to roll down the window and put his head out to have a better look, Arielle instantly pinned his hand down. “Don’t open it!”

“What’s wrong?” Jason was utterly confused. He then gazed toward Arielle’s hand, which was pressing against his.

It’s so cooling and comforting. He had the urge to hold her hand instead after seeing how slender and fair it was.

Right when Jason was about to act on his urge, Arielle retracted her hand.
