Chapter 53,A Beauty with Multiple Masks

“Who exactly are you?” Arielle asked. The man was in such a stupor that none of his words made sense. In the end, he started stripping off his clothes instead. Arielle’s eyes widened in shock as she stumbled backward and instinctively shielded her chest. “Why are you taking off your clothes? Don’t you dare do anything funny! I’ll fight back!” Realizing that he might have frightened Arielle, the man immediately stopped in his tracks.

After a brief hesitation, he pulled up his sleeve to reveal a bandage over his shoulder and proceeded to pull it off. One look at the wound and Arielle instantly recognized it as a knife wound. The wound was deep as if the knife had cut to the bone. Because of the stitches, the wound looked like a big, red, and angry centipede. Due to the force of ripping the bandage off, the wound had reopened, and Arielle gasped as blood started seeping out of it.

It was at that moment that Arielle suddenly recalled an incident. Back when she was living overseas, there was one night when she walked past a street after dinner. To her horror, a group of men with machetes was beating up another man. Incidents like those weren’t an uncommon sight, and Arielle’s initial thought was to walk away. However, when she saw the attackers start to slash the man with their machetes, she hurriedly ran over and fought them off.

No matter how good she was at fighting, she was still one lone woman up against a group of men. In the end, she escaped with the injured man in tow. They ran for almost ten blocks before they managed to shake his attackers off. Once the coast was clear, she gave the man some money and even got a car to send him to the hospital. The man’s knife wound, if she recalled correctly, was right on his shoulder blade, just like the man in front of her now.
