His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1497

By the time the help cleaned Cindy up, Dylan had returned to the palace. In her attempt to avoid triggering Cindy's hysterical response, Arielle put on a summer hat that covered her entire face except for her eyes.

This time, she brought a sedative with her as a precaution. In the event Cindy went on a rampage, she would be able to put it to use.

Since it was the first time Vinson saw her dressed that way, he smiled in amusement at how good she looked.

Upon arriving at the hut Cindy was living in, they found the stench had dissipated significantly after the room had been cleaned.

Who did this to her? Is it the same person who brought her here? But why continue to do it when she's already here?

Questions abound in Arielle's mind as she narrowed her gaze.

As both of them walked back to the house, Arielle revealed her thoughts, “She's been drugged, just like we suspected.”

“We'll have to wait for her captors to start their search. By then, we'll have more clues.” Just as he spoke, Vinson added, “Are you going to treat Cindy?”

Treat her?

Arielle shook her head.

“Not for the time being.”

Vinson cocked his brow. “Why?”
