Chapter 774 The Deal
Cindy’s face was filled with horror as soon as Arielle mentioned the pigsty. “How did you know? Have you always
known?”
Without answering the woman’s question, Arielle ordered the bodyguards to move Cindy to the pigsty.
“No! Stop it! I don’t want to go back there.” Kicking her legs, Cindy struggled like a madwoman trying to escape her
captors but to no avail.
It did not take Vinson’s bodyguards long to get Cindy completely under their control.
“So you don’t want to go back there?” Arielle then nodded understandingly. “That’s not a problem, but you have to
promise me something.”
Cindy would do anything to stay out of the pigsty, for she could still remember how she was forced to sleep with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpigs and be fed with pig fodder.
“Name it!” demanded Cindy with gritted teeth.
“It’s simple, really. All you have to do is tell me how you and Henrick got my mother killed, and I’ll let you go.”
Cindy’s face quickly turned pale but remained adamant. “As if! What makes you think we’re the ones responsible
for your mother’s death?”
As much as she wanted to leave that barn, Cindy knew that she would be sent to prison even if Arielle did let her
go. Worse than that, her life could be in danger if word got out. This is a terrible deal, and I’m not going to agree to
it!
Without responding to the woman, Arielle scoffed and took a step back before snapping her fingers.
Immediately afterward, the two bodyguards lifted Cindy and started to head out with the woman.
“Let me go! Let me go now! If you dare leave me in the pigsty like your father did, I swear you’ll pay for it when I
get out! Do you hear me?”
“Perfectly,” answered Arielle coldly as she stared at the woman, unfazed by the threat.
Although the last thing Cindy wanted was to go back to the foul-smelling sty, she was unwilling to give what Arielle
wanted either.
Still gagged and bound to a pillar, Matthias seemed even more agitated as he made all kinds of noises to attract
attention.
“Wait,” commanded Arielle when Matthias finally got her attention.
Immediately, the bodyguards stopped in their tracks as ordered.
Before Arielle could reach Matthias, Vinson swiftly rushed over to remove the gag in the man’s mouth before
turning to look softly at Arielle. “I’ll handle this. There’s no reason to get your hands dirty over a man like him.”
In response, Arielle smiled warmly at the gentleman before setting her icy-cold glare back on Matthias. “It seems
like you have something to say… tell me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter taking deep breaths to ease the pain, Matthias explained himself. “Ms. Moore, I admit that what Cin and I did
was wrong. If you let us go, I promise you that you’ll never have to see us ever again.”
Compared to Cindy, Matthias was more calm and reasonable, for he knew well what kind of situation he was in.
“Is that really the best you can do? Tell me. Do you take me for an idi*t? I have no doubt that you can keep your
promise by staying far away from me, but what about Cindy? That woman’s convinced that I killed her daughter.
You think she’s going to just leave me alone?”
“What do you want me to do then?”
Arielle tucked her hair behind her ear calmly before answering, “Like I said, I’ll let both of you go as soon as Cindy
tells me the truth.”
“That’s it?”
“That’s it.”
Matthias then turned to Cindy and pleaded, “Just tell her what she wants to know, Cin. Please! You know well that
we’re not getting out of this if you don’t give her what she wants.”
