A Beauty with Multiple Masks novel Chapter 1529

Chapter 1529 A Slap

When Dylan saw Arielle’s face, he could not hold himself back anymore. All of a sudden, he staggered backward, but Vinson managed to catch him in time. After Dylan regained his balance, he turned to Vinson and slapped him.

‘‘W-Why… Why didn’t you take care of… take care of her?’‘ Dylan roared in sorrow as he clutched his chest and glared at Vinson.

He had trusted Vinson so much and had believed that the latter would protect Arielle with his life, but in the end, what happened? Why didn’t he protect her? Oh, my dear daughter…

At that thought, Dylan’s tears kept streaming down his face. He was utterly devastated by the loss of his daughter.

Meanwhile, Vinson could only watch him sob in silence. He did not know what he could do to lessen the pain the old king was feeling.

‘‘Please don’t cry. She’ll definitely be upset if she sees you in this state.’‘ Vinson’s cheek had turned red right after the slap, but he said no words of complaint about it. He knew that Dylan only did that because he loved Arielle wholeheartedly. If Arielle had meant nothing to him, he would not have cared whether she lived or died.

However, Dylan did not respond to him. He turned away to fix his gaze on Arielle instead. The longer he looked at her, the thinner the air around him seemed.

It had taken eons before they finally found each other, but it seemed like just the blink of an eye before they were separated by the line between life and death.

‘‘What happened to her? Why did she suddenly—’‘ Dylan choked out but could not even finish his sentence in the throes of his sorrow.

Sybil quietly wiped away his tears as he watched the scene. He, too, could not believe that the princess was gone just like that. The king had not even gotten the chance to announce her existence to the people before they lost her.

Sybil could only imagine how anguished the king must be.
