A Beauty with Multiple Masks novel Chapter 1765

Another week went by, and the rescue team had fished more than a hundred bodies out from the sea. Yet, there was no sign of Vinson and Arielle.

Aaron was overwhelmed with despair. He had not been able to sleep well as he was busy handling national affairs and keeping a watchful eye on the rescue operation.

Celeste was so worried about her son that she decided to leave the palace to meet him. Her heart sank when she saw how frail and skinny Aaron had become.

“It has been a week, Aaron. Arielle and Vinson might have…”

Before Celeste could finish her sentence, she noticed Aaron had turned around and glared at her. “Don’t utter those inauspicious words, Mother. Don’t make wild guesses.”

He gritted his teeth and emphasized those last four words, as he refused to believe Arielle and Vinson were dead.

Celeste did not want to think they had perished in the incident either, but she did not believe the couple could survive in the ocean for a week, no matter how capable they were.

Upon seeing how determined Aaron was, she decided not to say anything that would make him feel awful. Nonetheless, Celeste was still worried about his health since he had not had enough rest during this period.

“I understand you’re worried about them, Aaron, but you have to take care of yourself too. What if you fall ill, and they’re still not found? Who else can command the search operation?” Celeste said while looking at him.

At first, Aaron wanted to continue monitoring the rescue operation, but he had to agree with Celeste. When he decided to return to the palace with her to take a rest, Celeste was overjoyed.

In the meantime, a man leaned against the chair with his legs crossed while tapping on his phone.

He asked with a wicked smirk, “How did the share acquisition go?”

The man standing opposite cautiously answered, “Mr. Rhaylie, though the price has plunged, no one has sold off their shares yet.”
