SWNOVELS Chapter 22
Chapter 22 None Would Get Away
‘Soon enough, you will meet your doom,’ Nora thought.
Harriet took the chicken soup and discreetly inserted a silver needle into it while Nora wasn’t paying attention.
Once the needle was immersed in the soup, its color began to fade, confirming that the soup had indeed been poisoned.
Harriet put away the silver needle and gulped down the soup.
Nora smiled contentedly and counted the time in her mind.
Once Harriet fainted, she would take her to the back door, where the people arranged by Bessie were waiting to take Harriet to the Happy Harpers.
However, nothing happened as twenty seconds had passed.
Nora wondered if the drug was fake when Harriet spat out the soup and wrinkled her nose.
“This soup tastes awful. I don’t like it.”
“Are you messing with me?”
Nora angrily walked over and raised her hand to slap Harriet.
But Harriet grabbed her wrist.
“Yes, I am.” She sneered, her voice cold and cruel.
Nora froze and widened her eyes in disbelief.
The calm and mockery were something she had never seen on Harriet’s face.

Before she could gather her wits, she felt a sharp pain behind her ear and then passed out.
Harriet kicked Nora’s limp body with her toe to make sure the latter
had truly passed out. Then she found a sack and put Nora in it. Avoiding the servants in the house, she took the sack to the back
door.
Bessie had been waiting there.
She anxiously paced back and forth.
The human trafficker urged, “Mrs. Munoz, the ship is about to depart
in half an hour. If we don’t leave now, we’ll miss it.”
“Alright, I’ll go and hurry her up.”
Bessie decided to go and check things out.
Suddenly, there was a thud not far away.
Startled, Bessie thought someone had discovered her plan.
But upon closer inspection, she saw a large sack lying in front of her, with a faint human shape inside.
She eagerly hurried towards the sack, assuming it contained Harriet
She didn’t understand why Nora had taken the trouble of putting
Harriet in a sack.
But giddy with success, she didn’t think much about it or notice a slim figure standing at the corner. Harriet watched her every action with disdain.
Earlier, she had removed the silver needle from Nora’s sleeping
acupoint.
She wanted Nora to witness how Bessie would personally hand her over to the human traffickers and sell her to the Happy Harpers.

Wasn’t Nora planning to torture her to death?
She would like to see who dies in the end.
After this, she would have Molly help release the intimate photos of Delbert and her on the island.
Then Bessie would associate Nora’s disappearance with the
kidnapping incident, realizing she had sold her daughter. It would be agonizing for her.
