Chapter 1659

Chapter 1659Initially, Arielle thought Nancy would stall for time to hinder Aaron’s succession to the throne.
Surprisingly, the latter made an official announcement about that the following day after her father’s
funeral.
Even though Aaron’s succession to the throne was built on the tragic fate of her father, she still
intended to congratulate him.
Recalling Aaron’s aloofness toward her, she changed her mind about calling him and sent him a
congratulatory message instead.
Soon, half an hour passed, but she did not receive any reply from him. Knowing that he paid no heed to
her, she let out a sigh before putting her phone down.
Since he disregards me, I’d better stop bothering him.
At the moment, the arrest warrant was bugging her. She knew that she had to gear up so that Nancy
would retract the nationwide arrest warrant. Without hesitation, she took out her laptop to send a few
emails and waited patiently for a reply.

In the meantime, Linda glowered coldly at the man in front of her in a hotel. “How did you manage to
know my whereabouts?”
To prevent him from clinging to her, she stayed in Lightspring for a few days intentionally before
heading toward Turlen. Nobody else knew about her current location, not even the Duke. Furthermore,
she was only in the country for barely one month.
novelbinIt never occurred to her that he would be able to locate her whereabouts so soon.Mark looked at her with a grin. His effort finally paid off after trying to track her down for more than one
month.
“I’ve been dropping by hotels and inns every day, trying my luck by asking around if anyone had seen
you.”
Too bad the hotels were particular with their guests’ confidentiality, and he failed to bribe any staff for
information. He even regretted that he had never learned to hack. Otherwise, it would be easy as
snapping fingers for him to track her down.
Catching sight of his gleeful smile, Linda asked coldly, “How long have you been looking for me?”
“Not long either,” Mark replied candidly.
At the sight of the somberness on her face, he touched the back of his head and added, “I’ve been
tracking you down since the first day I reached this country.”
It never crossed Lina’s mind that he would spend such a long time looking for her.
Right that instant, she felt a surge of indescribable feelings from within her.
“What a fool!” she mocked.
On the heels of that, she headed back toward her room. Mark followed closely behind her, worrying
that she would be gone again.
Meanwhile, Linda, who was ahead of him, twitched her lips slightly before she was suddenly out of
sight the next second.
Seeing that Linda had entered her room, Mark turned and went downstairs. He was there to double
confirm her room number before checking into the one next to hers.Linda stepped out of the room upon hearing Mark’s footsteps.
When she noticed he was nowhere to be seen, she snorted and slammed the door before turning and
making her way toward the bathroom.
Little did Linda realize that Mark headed to the front counter right away to book a room next to hers.
As something popped into his mind, he went to the supermarket and bought a lot of her favorite
snacks. Moments later, he dropped by the hotel he checked in previously to retrieve his luggage and
check out before returning to the one Linda was staying in again.
He thought of sending the things to Linda at once but changed his mind after realizing that he had been
to various places the whole day.
He took a shower to get rid of his sweat odor and get changed before knocking on Linda’s door with the
snacks.
Linda had just taken her shower when she heard someone knocking on the door. Therefore, she
answered it with a towel wrapped around her body.
Astounded, Mark could only look away hastily and dared not spare her any glance.
“T-These are for you…” he stammered as he handed the snacks to her before walking back to his room
hurriedly and closing the door.
Linda could not help feeling amused at his hastiness.
As a smile broke out on her face, her usual indifference faded away.
***Meanwhile, Ira tiptoed into her room after noticing the light in Arielle and Vinson’s room was turned off.
She opened the window and jumped out of it swiftly.
