Despite that, Cindyâs blood was already boiling when she heard that Shandie wore the evening gown
Arielle should have worn instead
âThereâs no need to wait. If all else failsâ¦â Cindyâs voice was as cold as ice. Gritting her teeth, she
hissed, âYou know what? I canât wait anymore. I want you to find an assassin and have Arielle
eliminated at once!â
Matthias was taken aback for a moment. While he had indeed done a lot of dirty work for her, he had
never done something of that magnitude.
Seeing that he wasnât saying anything, Cindy put on a pitiful expression and questioned, âWhatâs
wrong? Are you not willing to do so? Do you not love me anymore? You said that youâd do anything at
all for my sake.â
In the face of her weathered countenance, Matthias truly couldnât bring himself to say that he loved her.
Nonetheless, his love for her throughout the years remained, so he inhaled deeply and relented, âOkay
In the next moment, a smile bloomed on Cindyâs face. But little did she know that she now looked even
more unsightly when she smiled since wrinkles creased the corners of her eyes.
As Matthias beheld her in her current condition, he had mixed feelings.
Nevertheless, his love for her had persisted for so many years that it couldnât possibly fade so easily
just because of her appearance. After accepting the change in her, he sorrowfully remarked,
âYouâve suffered so much. I brought the medicine you want, and youâll be able to leave this place soon.â
â
While saying that, he took out a bottle of medicine concocted from herbs from his backpack and
handed it to her. âThis is the medicine you requested. However, it doesnât work with a single
consumption. Youâve got to boil and drink the herbs every day to maintain the efficacy you desire. The
conditions here donât lend to you being able to boil the herbs every day, so Iâll bring you readymade
medicine every day.â
Cindyâs eyes lit up, and she quickly took the sealed bottle of traditional medicine
Southall Group. Weâll travel the globe, visiting every nook and cranny.
âNo way!â Cindy countered staunchly. âItâs almost time, and weâre just a step away from stealing
Southall Group for ourselves. Weâve plotted for many years, so how could we possibly give up at this
critical juncture? Furthermore, Iâve still got Shannie. What is going to become of her if I leave?â
After becoming a mother, she couldnât snuff out her motherly instincts despite being a vicious woman.
No matter how horrible Shandie was toward her, she was still her precious daughter who was born of
her, after all.
Knowing that he wouldnât be able to persuade her otherwise, Matthias sighed helplessly and relented,
âAll right, then. No matter what, Iâll help you. Starting tomorrow, Iâll bring the medicine over every day at
this time.â
No sooner had he finished speaking did Louisaâs bellow ring out from a near distance away. âCindy!
Cindy!â
from him. After opening it, she guzzled it down at a single go.
The medicine was extremely bitter, but she drank it all without even batting an eyelash.
I want to leave the monastery! I must leave this awful place as soon as possible! Even if itâs dog poop,
Iâll eat it without the slightest hesitation as long as I can get out of this place, not to mention traditional
medicine!
After drinking it, she impatiently demanded, âHow long before it takes effect?â
âIf you drink it every day, youâll see the results within a week,â Matthias replied.
âOkay, Iâll wait for a week.â
A week later, Iâll be getting out of here!
At that moment, Cindy finally saw a ray of hope in her life.
Noticing her expression, Matthias reluctantly uttered, âActually, you donât have to do this at all. You can
just leave with me and forget about Henrick and
As soon as Cindy heard her voice, her eyelid twitched, and she felt as though she was going to pass
out anytime
Only God knows what Iâve experienced in the past few days! Sheâs simply the devil!
