A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 266
Upon hearing that, Arielle suddenly felt that Vinson seemed to have been plotting the marriage for a
long time.
But… he doesn‘t have romantic feelings toward me, so there’s no reason for him to do so, no? I must
be reading too much into things
Vinson continued, “You, however, lack the necessary documents. I’ll go to your place with you to
retrieve your household registry. I don’t think your father will object.”
Chuckling bitterly, Arielle scoffed, “How could he possibly object when he has gone as far as handing
me to you on a silver platter?”
“Let’s go, then.” As Vinson said that, he started heading out.
He was taking huge strides as though he couldn’t wait to arrive at City Hall.
Seeing that, Arielle hastily put down her cutlery and followed after him.

Well, this is indeed the best time to go to City Hall. When Cindy comes back, she’ll
definitely be downright astonished!
At the visualization of Cindy’s possible expression then, anticipation inundated Arielle.
While Arielle went back to the Southall residence to retrieve her household registry, Cindy finally
managed to escape Louisa’s monitoring and met up with Matthias under the locust tree beside the wall
in the monastery.
Matthias had been waiting under the locust tree for a very long time. When he first caught sight of
Cindy, he couldn’t quite believe his eyes.
In just a few days, Cindy had turned as thin as a stick, and her skin had lost its fairness since she had
been working under the sun for an extended period.
Besides that, her skin was no longer as taut or supple as before now that she wasn’t doing any facial
treatments. On the whole, she looked as though she had aged ten years in the blink of an eye.

Matthias, who was five years younger than her, was wholly stunned.
Is this really my goddess, Cindy Moore?
Afraid that Louisa would abruptly wake up, Cindy was in a hurry and didn’t notice the peculiar
expression on Matthias’ face. The moment she opened her mouth, she demanded, “How is it? Has
Arielle’s reputation been ruined now?”
Only then did Matthias snap back to his senses. Shaking his head, he muttered,
“No.”
“What?” Cindy’s voice went up several decibels at once. With her brows deeply creased, she snapped,
“What do you mean by that? Didn’t you tell me that the plan was foolproof?”
Heaving a sigh, Matthias replied, “The plan was foolproof, but Yvette made a mistake. For some
unknown reason, the person in bed with Mason wasn’t Arielle but Yvette herself. Now, her father is
forcing her to marry Mason.”

At once, Cindy’s knees went weak. If Matthias hadn’t supported her in time, she would have collapsed
onto the ground.
A long while passed before she finally
found her voice. She immediately snarled, “How useless! She couldn’t even accomplish her task when
it was such a perfect plan! How dumb! She’s no more than a stupid pig!”
“Calm down.” Matthias then mollified her, saying, “We might have lost the opportunity this time, but
there’s always another time. I don’t believe I can’t handle a mere slip of a girl. If worse comes to worst,
I’ll just hire an assassin and have her dealt with somewhere.”
Despite his words, regret swamped Cindy that she chose the wrong person to collaborate with.
Argh! I really shouldn‘t have chosen to work with that foolish woman Yvette!
Recalling what happened with Shandie, Matthias spoke again. “There’s something else I forgot to tell
you. Yvette arbitrarily got Arielle a black evening gown, but the evening gown ended up on Shandie
instead for some inexplicable reason. Russell was so incensed that he almost kicked the bucket.
Fortunately, Arielle saved him. However, Shandie’s reputation might suffer for quite some time.”
Henrick had been keeping Shandie’s death a secret from the outside world, so Matthias didn’t yet know
that the latter had already passed away.
