Chapter: 696
With determined steps, she embarked on her search
She scoured every nook and cranny of the bedroom, exploring the bedside table, delving beneath the
covers, and even peeking under the bed.
However, her efforts proved futile as the object of her search eluded her grasp.
Undeterred, Ariana decided to venture into the media room.
Entering the media room, Ariana was greeted by the sight of her pink slippers and favorite snacks
neatly arranged on the table, a place she had frequented often.
Memories of cozy movie nights with Theodore flooded her mind, and a profound sense of nostalgia

Gently running her fingers along the back of the sofa, which had Long lost its warmth, she closed her
eyes, momentarily transporting herself back to the moments they had shared.
Though Theodore’s physical presence was absent, she could still sense his ethereal companionship.
Reluctantly withdrawing from her reverie, Ariana let out a sigh and resumed her search in the media
room.
She meticulously combed through every inch of the space, leaving no stone unturned.
Yet, her desired find remained elusive.
A furrow formed on her brow as she surveyed her surroundings, pondering the whereabouts of the
elusive object.

frequented in the past, which meant she’d find nothing there.
Reflecting on her past oversights, she realized that the most inconspicuous places were often the most

Ariana’s gaze landed on an unassuming wall cabinet nestled inconspicuously behind the sofa.
Determination etched on her face, she made her way briskly toward it.
Opening the cabinet and rummaging through its contents, her heart leaped with joy as she finally laid
eyes upon the familiar medicine bottle.
The bottle had already been uncorked.
That indicated that Theodore had indeed been consuming the medication during his stay there.
Ariana studied the bottle intently, her grip tightening instinctively.
Since she seldom used the living room and instead went to the media room whenever she wanted to
watch TV, this wall cabinet remained unnoticed.
