Chapter 1705 Ulterior Motives

Despite having used Morse to scout out the surroundings, Arielle still could not guarantee her success in taking away four children in one go. What should I do? She did not even know her actual location, as her imprisonment in the basement did not afford her the opportunity to get outside.

She did try to use Morse to bring her outside, but Morse would ask her what she needed and went out by himself whenever she brought up the matter of going out to shop for the children.

Worried about drawing his notice if she asked too often, Arielle did not dare bring up the matter of going out again. Her helplessness over her predicament plunged her into a stalemate. What should I do? Should I resort to that?

However, she did not dare guarantee that that plan would work. What if something went wrong?

Before she could think of something more foolproof, Norma’s arrival with Bella’s son in her arms intensified Arielle’s anxiety when she saw how demure the boy looked. However, her face displayed only joy.

“This child is a fine specimen. Are we ready to begin the experiment? Can I join in by then?” she asked Norma excitedly, who heaved a sigh of relief at the happiness and interest on Arielle’s expression and decided that it looked genuine.

As Dr. Moore is here under my recommendation, I would be the one to blame if she harbored any ulterior motives. It relieves me that she seems pretty interested in the research. I can use her without worry.

“All in good time,” Norma replied with a smile.

“It’s only a couple of days of work, which will pass very soon. We have waited many years for a test subject.” She patted Arielle’s arm comfortingly.

Arielle nodded helplessly and stretched out a hand to poke the child in her arms. “Though he’s the smallest, he’s the most well behaved,” she said through pursed lips.

Norma gazed at the child in her arms and nodded in agreement.

The two women exchanged a few more words, with Norma showing no signs of wanting to leave. Arielle sensed that Norma had an ulterior motive, but she could not figure out what it was. Just as she was considering different possibilities, Norma spoke.
