Chapter 1630

Bennett seized his brief moment of freedom, stretched his body, and walked over to where Ariana was peacefully resting.

He began rummaging through her backpack in search of water.

The bag was filled with water bottles, yet he specifically selected the one Ariana had previously used.

A blush tinged Bennett’s cheeks.

He hesitated briefly, chuckled at the absurdity of his thought, and indulged in a sip.

He dared not to drink too much, wary of arousing Ariana’s suspicion.

After his sip, he carefully placed the cap back and stealthily returned the bottle to its spot.

Then, he tiptoed away to a secluded grassy area to pee.

He then stumbled upon a stream.

There, he washed his face and deliberately disheveled his appearance once more.
