Chapter 405 Taking the Bait
Third–person POV:
Early the next morning, Rosie and the guards discovered they had been knocked out the night before.
All their belongings had been searched through. Even though the bags had been tied back up neatly, people in their line of work could tell at a glance if someone had touched their things
“This is actually good,” Rosie said, a cold glint flashing through her eyes. “If they searched us and found nothing suspicious, they’ll bring us along with them. That’ll make the next part much easier.”
She turned to look at Chloe. “When the group stops to rest later, find a chance to be alone with Prince Vance. Don’t forget to let him (now you know some martial arts. He likes capable women.”
Chloe gave a soft hum in response, then suddenly held her forehead. “Why does my head feel so dizzy…”
That’s normal,” Rosie replied calmly. “It’ll pass soon. We were all drugged by them.”
fter a pause, she stared at Chloe seriously “Remember this. The moment you get a chance, stick close to him. Sigh… We really niscalculated this time. Before we left for Aunilles, we never expected Laila to come too. Princess Estelle’s letter arrived too late.”
Laila left the city during the night,” Chloe said softly “The princess didn’t know. It’s not her fault.”
With her hands behind her back, Rosie looked completely in control. “Mm. With Laila around, things are definitely harder. But the lan can’t change. No matter what method you use Whether to cling to him, stir trouble, or whatever it takes… you must make hose two quarrel. Put a knot in their hearts. Best if you can ruin this marriage completely.”
hloe nodded. “I understand. I’ll do my best, teacher.”
osie gave a satisfied nod. “Good. Princess Estelle always keeps her promises. Complete this mission, and your mother will be eleased from the dungeon. If you can win Prince Vance over, your mother will be treated much better, too.”
I know,” Chloe said firmly. “I’ll definitely satisfy the princess.”
osie looked at her with approval. “Good girl. Much better than your sister he refused to listen, looked down on Ricasso for being seless, and wouldn’t get close to him. She only learned to behave after being punished.”
My sister…” Chloe asked carefully, “How is she now?”
୮
Josie sat down, her expression indifferent. “Don’t worry about her. She never worried about you either. Focus on yourself.”
But she caused quite a scene over at Thunder Pack. The princess…”
Don’t worry,” Rosie interrupted. “The princess already hired a wolf healer to treat your mother. Her food has improved, too. As for vhether she’ll leave the dungeon alive… that depends on you.”
Chloe nodded obediently. “I understand.”
The large group continued forward.

The people from Cottontail did not ask much about Chice
They understood peopleso
Ponce Vance and Laila both knew what was going on, so there was no need for them to interfere
Sara, however, knew nothing about any of this. Her entire attention was focused on William. To her, they had simply rescued a young woman on the road and were bringing he back with them.
Sara had never experienced schemes or manipulation in ber life, so naturally, she could not see the hidden motives underneath it all.
That was why, in addition to taking care of William, she also looked after Chloe whenever she could. After all, the girl was traveling with a group of men. There were bound to be many inconveniences.
Veither Laila nor Viola tried to stop her.
What made Sara truly precious was her pure and sincere heart.
Whatever she felt was written plainly on her face. There was no need to destroy that peace and kindness inside her.
The world was already dirty enough. Just because monsters existed outside did not mean every beautiful thing in the world had to grow thorns to protect itself. If that happened, the world would become far too bleak to love.
hat day, the group stopped to rest in a forest by the roadside A few hundred yards away, a crystal–clear stream flowed through he woods. The weather was scorching, so everyone rushed into the water.
Chloe washed her hands by the stream as well. Of course, she could not jump into the water and soak herself as the men did.
But as she watched the lively scene nearby, she casually picked up a tree branch and began practicing movements off to the side.
