His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1722

“I can't sleep well in new places. I'm a light sleeper. My grandma gave me this to help me sleep before I came. She said I could just put them under my pillow when I went to bed, and I'd fall asleep in five minutes. There are no side effects. Do you want some? I can give you half,” Arielle explained slowly and calmly.

“Can I really have half of it? Will it be less effective?” Morse was moved by the offer because he had never received anything from Arielle. In fact, he would be more than happy to receive just anything from her.

Arielle nodded with a smile. “It's okay. The effect might be diminished, but I can put up with that. I don't mind giving you half.” She took the packet from him and started looking for a container.

“It's okay. I don't have trouble sleeping. You can keep it,” Morse said, grabbing her hand.

Arielle furrowed her brows as she stared at Morse's hand. The man trailed her gaze and became conscious of the warmth coming from Arielle's hand. “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.” He retracted his hand and fled from her room.

Arielle’s eyes darkened as she watched him leave. It seems that Professor Hoffmeister has realized that the document is missing and is looking into the matter.

Arielle smirked coldly. There's no way I'm letting all of you off the hook.

Outside, Morse clutched his chest as he rushed out of Arielle’s room. He took a few deep breaths to calm down, and after a few minutes, he went back to Torsten to inform him that he did not find the drug.

Torsten was not surprised at the outcome. He had expected the thief to destroy any form of evidence, and searching Arielle's room was just to try his luck.

“What should we do next?” Norma asked in vexation. “Where should we begin our search?”

“Let me think about it,” Torsten replied, gesturing for them to leave him alone.
