Chapter 229,A Beauty with Multiple Masks

 

Yvette did not recognize this man and wanted to walk past him. I can’t bear to stay here any longer. This is no longer my birthday party, but Arielle’s party to shine. The man stretched out his hand to block her path. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Actonward.” He grinned. Yvette was stunned when she heard his voice. “You’re the guy who contacted me on behalf of Cindy!” she exclaimed in surprise. She instinctively looked around the hall and noticed Arielle chatting happily with someone else.

 

Yvette sighed in relief when she knew Arielle didn’t notice the mysterious man. She then turned to him and said, “Let’s head to the garden.” Then, she headed toward the backyard as the man followed closely behind her. The both of them quickly disappear as they reached the entrance. At the same time, Arielle’s eyes fell upon them as soon as they turned and headed to the backyard. If I’m not mistaken, that’s Matthias.

Arielle narrowed her eyes as the corner of her lips curled into an unnoticeable smile. “Ms. Moore? Ms. Moore?” someone called as he followed her gaze. “What’re you looking at?” he asked. “Nothing.” Arielle turned back to face the guest and smiled. “I have a feeling it’s going to rain.” “Rain?” The guest was confused. “The weather today seemed rather nice. How could it possibly rain?” Arielle smiled. “Because there aren’t any stars.”

“That’s true. There are no stars tonight.” The guest nodded. Nonetheless, Jadeborough was decorated with bright lights, so it would make sense if one could not spot any stars. As the night went by, the backyard was rather dim as only a few lamps were situated around while the stars hid in the clouds.

Therefore, it was a perfect place to talk in private. The man took off his hat, revealing his handsome appearance. Although he was on the older side, one could tell that he was an extremely good-looking man in his younger days. Yet, there was big scar on his face. The man smiled and greeted, “Hello, Ms. Actonward. My name is Matthias.

I’m Cindy’s assistant, and I was sent here to help you.” Yvette had experienced an embarrassing moment moments ago, yet she was still as arrogant as ever. She grunted and said harshly, “You want to help me? Even Cindy had been sent to the monastery. What can an assistant like you do? I’d rather do things myself! The reason I asked you over was merely to avoid suspicion and nothing else. Hence, you may leave!”

Matthias looked at her and replied, “Ms. Actonward, I saw what happened earlier. If you went with the plan, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.” “That was an accident! Who knew Shandie would end up wearing that dress? That stupid b*tch! She’s always getting in the way of my plans!” she quickly explained. Matthias loved Cindy very much; hence he loved Shandie as well. So of course, his expression darkened when he heard those words.

“Ms. Actonward, did you really think that it was an accident? Perhaps it was a coincidence that Shandie wore your dress to the birthday party as soon as she left the monastery?” Yvette frowned as she pondered for a moment. “What’re you trying to say?”
