A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 355
Designer: Maureen Moore
“Mom?” She turned to look at Vinson in disbelief. “My mother designed this pair of earrings?”
Vinson nodded. “I was at an auction, and it so happened that I saw the earrings. Of course, the interesting thing is that the designer is your mother. What a great coincidence!”
In fact, he had spent a lot of time and energy finding this pair of earrings.
Tears welled up in Arielle’s eyes. She was clear that the coincidence he mentioned was just a made-up story.
There are no such coincidences in this world.
She sniffed and said gratefully, “Vinson, thank-”
“Don’t mention it!” Vinson cut her off by placing his finger on her lips. “Have you forgotten what I said earlier? What should you say instead?”
Arielle blushed. She then pulled his hand and awkwardly replied, “Vinson, you’re the best!”
He snapped his fingers upon hearing that. “Yeah, that’s right. But I guess you have to say it again later.”
“What do you mean?”
“Take a look at the other gift!”
After unwrapping the first gift, Arielle couldn’t help wondering what the second gift would be.
Without wasting any time, she removed the wrapping of the gift, only to find that the gift was packed in a plain and undecorated bag.
However, Arielle knew that the thing inside must be something that would again take her breath away.
She then opened it. The box was filled with scented candles.
Arielle recognized that they were therapeutic candles that were made by Andrea to help one relax and prepare for sleep.
Basically, they were not available on the market, and Andrea had never gifted them to anyone. It was merely for own use.
Fixing her gaze on the candles, Arielle was at a loss for words.
Seeing her remain silent, Vinson didn’t say anything. He just quietly watched her as she stared intently at the candles.
After a while, Arielle finally came to her senses. She picked up one of them and took a sniff of it. That’s a familiar smell.
She turned to look at Vinson. For the first time, she took the initiative and said, “Vinson, you’re the best.”
Vinson was startled for a moment before putting on a smile. “If I had known that seeing Andrea would make you happy, I would have visited her earlier.”
Arielle remained silent for a moment before asking anxiously, “No one found you when you were there?”
“Don’t worry! I was also worried that I would cause them trouble, so I changed a couple of cars on the way there.”
Arielle heaved a sigh of relief. “How are things going with Mommy and Daddy?” she asked.
Vinson nodded. “They are doing fine. It’s just that they miss you.”
Her eyes reddened. She quickly wiped her tears away and forced a smile. “Thank you, Vinson!”
Shaking his head, he replied, “I just dropped by.”
As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something. “Oh yeah! It almost slips my mind.”
Confusion overtook Arielle’s features. She then saw him fishing out a letter from the pocket of his coat and handed it over to her. “Pat asked me to pass this to you.”
Arielle took it, but she didn’t open it immediately because she had something more important to do.
“Sasha is now in the housekeeper’s room. I just gave her
an injection to reduce fever. I think her fever is gone now. She really misses you. You should go check on her.”
At the mention of her name, Vinson’s relaxed facial expression was gone and was replaced by a solemn look.
After a brief moment of happiness, it was time to face the cruel truth.
He had already learned that Toni and Andy were killed and Blake was still missing.
If only I had killed him the other day… He felt irritated at the thought of that.
