Chapter 1726


    As the group got into the car. Chloe quickly took off her scarf and puffer jacket. “You should do the


    same.” She didn’t lift her head as she spoke, but Brisa knew she was talking to her Following her


    lead, Brisa removed her own outerwear. They passed their jackets back to Jane one after the other.


    “Pull over” Jane’s icymand rang out, and she got out of the car, holding the two outfits.


    Afterward, she pulled out two spare nkets from the backseat and handed them to the two


    women.


    Chloe rolled down the window, watching with a cold gaze as Jane outside the car scrutinized the


    two jackets in her hands. Brisa leaned her body to look out, utterly clueless as to what they were up


    to Ever since she decided to leave with them, their actions had be increasingly peculiar, filling


    her with

    unease


    What what are you guys up to? She nced at Chloe’s tense profile, her words trailing off.


    Chloe didn’t respond, her attention focused on Jane who was now making her way back to the car


    with the jackets Jane spread her hand through the window, revealing several dark gray pellets,


    resembling pills. “These are of Fennel essential oils. They’ve used other scents to mask the smell.


    It’s simr to the air freshener in the car behind us.“c2


    Chloe sneered


    At this point, the driver grew curious and turned around to inquire about the situation.


    Out of politeness, Jane offered the pellets for him to examine.


    The driver leaned in to sniff the pellets, “Huh?”


    “What’s wrong?” Jane asked.


    Bending down, the driver retrieved a fancy wooden box from the glovepartment. “This was


    given to me by the housekeeper earlier. She said it was a high–end air freshener for the car. I


    haven’t finished the one I have now, so I put this one away.”


    Jane frowned, took the wooden box and smelled it, then spoke in a low voice, “It’s the same


    fragrance as the one in the car behind, which means it smells quite simr to these few pellets


    Handing the box back to the driver, she scoffed, “They prepared these to hide the existence of these


    things.” By ovepping the scents, even if there was any suspicion, it could be covered up by the


    car’s air freshener.


    “That woman, she really thought this through”


    However, whether it was L or Ava, they underestimated Chloe. Knowing she was a perfumer with


    a sensitive nose, they used an air freshener with the same scent as a disguise. But did they really


    think she wouldn’t be able to distinguish the scent of fennel? Even if they used countless aromatic


    spices as a cover, how could they possibly fool her? Moreover, they probably didn’t anticipate that


    she would decide to bring Jane along today


    “But their tactics are pathetic. If they turned the fennel into perfume or other form of scentless


    substance, it would be much harder to detect than these obvious pills, wouldn’t it?”


    Chice sneered, “They were trying to kill two birds with one stone. Not only cause a miscarriage but


    also shift the me onto me. After all, I’ve been with her this whole time. If anything happens to her,


    I would undoubtedly be implicated. If they find these things on me, even if I had a thousand


    tongues. I wouldn’t be able to exin myself”


    Listening to Chloe, Jane rolled her eyes.


    “Their methods of harming others are endless. They clearly have lots of experience”


    Meanwhile, Chloe rested her elbow on the car window, gazing into the distance, lost in thought.


    Jane raised an eyebrow, knowing that Chloe was scheming something Noticing a slow smirk curling


    on Chloe’s lips, and the gleam in her eyes, Jane felt a chill run down her spine. “What are you


    thinking?”


    The emotions in Chloe’s eyes instantly retreated as she pointed at the pellets in Jane’s hand and


    slowly said, ‘Put them away”


    Jane frowned, “Are you sure?”


    “Of course, just make sure they’re sealed.”


    Their conversation ended, and only when the scent in the car hadpletely dissipated did Chloe


    roll up the window. Turning to Brisa, she saw her looking pale as a sheet


    “Seems likeing back with me isn’t the safest option. Someone really has thought of everything.


    Their meticulous nning shows how much they want to get rid of you and me


    Brisa shook her head in horror, “This is terrifying. That woman, her schemes are incredibly


    insidious”


    She was nning to get rid of both her and Chloe And even her unborn baby


    After Jane got back in the car, Chloe nced at the time, “Is there a shortcut up ahead?”


    The driver quickly replied, “Yes, but it’s a bit bumpy”


    Without hesitation, Chloe instructed, “Take the shortcut.”


    The driver started the car and moved forward for a while, then turned into the fork in the main road


    Not long after their departure, on the other side of the forked road, Queen Julia’s car slowly


    approached, heading directly toward the mansion.


    Upon arrival at the mansion, L rushed out to greet them, When she heard that Chloe had taken


    Brisa away, Queen Julia let out a sigh of relief. “This child, she really does think like me”


    It was nearly noon, and L was about to instruct the servants to prepare lunch when she was


    halted by the Queen. “Since they’ve already left, i should bed back too” She seemed a bit anxious,


    as if she would see the baby the moment she returned home


    10:55


    Ava chimed in at this point, “We didn’t see their car on our way here, which means they must’ve


    taken the shortcut. The shortcut is a bit rough, and the pregnant woman is fragile, we better make


    sure nothing happens. Mother is right. We should head back as soon as possible. We will also take


    the shortcut. Maybe we can catch up with them.”


    So the group got back in the car, speeding up considerably. They took the shortcut as well but failed


    to catch up with Chloe. “Driver, can you go any faster?” Ava urged.


    Since Chloe was to be publicly humiliated, it had to be done in front of everyone. If they made it into


    the pce, Brisa wasn’t sure if her mother would protect her or suppress the news due to its


    potential impact. She wanted to ensure that Chloe had no chance of redemption. It would be ideal


    to stop them in the city center, and let their ugliest side be exposed to the public.


    Queen Julia was jostled from side to side by the car, and herplexion worsened upon hearing


    what Ava said. Fortunately, the road smoothed out after a while, and she remained silent.


    Meanwhile, Ava’s n was also Chloe’s n. As the car entered the city, Chloe then instructed the


    driver to slow down the speed. She had thought they would take a shortcut to catch up, but it


    seemed they had underestimated their pace.


    Fortunately, she now had the upper hand. If Ava and Barbara wanted to frame her and tamish her


    reputation, she would make sure they experienced the same fate and tasted the bitterness of


    complete ruin.
