Chapter 1276 A Presumptuous Request

They wouldn’t be meeting each other for three days. If he found out what happened to her, he would definitely rush here to take her away.

What was worse, he would forbid her from becoming the head of the Mill family and getting the medical manuscripts.

They chatted for almost one hour before cutting the line.

Right after she hung up, Sasha came to inform her that the head of the Mill family wanted to see her.

Arielle knew that they wanted to question the assassin.

“Ms. Moore, we shall start an investigation at once and give you an explanation,” Abraham, the head of the Mill family, promised solemnly.

He was shocked to find out from Cornelius that someone had tried to kill Arielle back in Mount Blackcloud.

After all, Mount Blackcloud was the Mills’ territory, and it was their decision to send the contestants there to gather herbs.

The matter would not have been so serious if the contestants were harmed by beasts or got injured due to other natural factors. However, things were different when a contestant was almost assassinated by someone.

After all, not everyone could enter Mount Blackcloud. Without a map, those who did so wouldn’t be able to leave the place alive.

“You’ll just have to find how he got into Mount Blackcloud. As for the investigation, forget it. After the selection ends, I’ll ask Vinson to question him. For now, keep him locked up so that he won’t be able to escape,” Arielle told Cornelius and Abraham.

Arielle knew Vinson was capable enough to get the information she wanted from the assassin.

“Let’s do that, then. We’ll find out how he got into Mount Blackcloud,” Abraham replied.

Arielle nodded. The matter had come to an end, so she decided to get some rest to prepare for the next day. She had just taken a few steps when something occurred to her. Turning at her shoulder, she said, “Mr. Mill, I have a presumptuous request. I hope you’ll say yes.”
