Chapter 1506 The Mystery
Arielle was determined to solve the mystery, for she knew she would regret it for the rest of her life if she left it unsolved.
Hence, the woman decided to stay a little longer to find out more.
The terrified Cindy quickly nodded in response because she would rather be locked away in a prison cell in Chanaea than stay at that godforsaken place, fearing that she might lose her life at any moment.
‘‘No problem. That can be arranged,’‘ promised Arielle.
When Cindy heard that, her lips immediately cracked into a smile. However, it only lasted until Arielle added, ‘‘But you’ll have to tell me who got you into Turlen and why. Only then will I let you go.’‘
The second Arielle stated her condition, her aunt’s smile vanished like the wind.
No, I can’t tell her! I just can’t!
Cindy shuddered when she imagined what would happen to her if she did what Arielle wanted. Hence, she shut her mouth tight and shook her head frantically.
Arielle furrowed her eyebrows tightly when she saw how her aunt reacted. That person must be very influential if she’s this afraid to talk. But who could it be?
‘‘So you don’t want to talk, huh? Fine. I guess I’ll just leave then.’‘ Arielle knew that Cindy would not give her what she wanted if she did not pressure the woman to do so, and the fearful look on Cindy’s face only served to confirm that.
However, Cindy did not seem to budge even after Arielle had taken a few steps away.
‘‘Are you sure you don’t want to tell me? If I walk away now, you won’t be getting another chance, you know?’‘ inquired Arielle on purpose, somewhat irritated by Cindy’s stubbornness.
Still, Cindy remained as silent as the grave.
‘‘I don’t see any point in talking with her. Let’s just shoot her in the head and get it over with!’‘ suggested Vinson intentionally before turning to glare at Cindy, who widened her eyes in fear but remained quiet.
Unable to change her aunt’s mind, Arielle had no choice but to give up.
‘‘I know shooting her will tie up any loose ends we have, but I’d rather have her tell me what I want to hear. My patience has its limits, though. Once it’s exhausted, I won’t give a d*mn whether she lives or dies,’‘ uttered Arielle before turning around to walk away. Vinson, too, left after giving Cindy one last look.
Cindy’s eyes were filled with nothing but dread when she watched the door close.
‘‘What do you plan to do if she refuses to talk until the end?’‘ inquired Vinson on the way.
‘‘Easy. We’ll announce that we have Cindy and see who breaks a sweat,’‘ replied Arielle nonchalantly.
She had her reasons for keeping the matter a secret at the moment. However, if Cindy continued to resist her, she would have no choice but to leave the woman to fate. Arielle saw no point in saving Cindy any longer.
In response to that, Vinson smirked. As expected, Arielle doesn’t disappoint.
Meanwhile, Aaron was getting impatient, waiting for Nico to make her move on Vinson as he was determined to make Arielle his. If I waste any more time, Arielle could leave for Chanaea, and I’d lose my chance. I can’t let that happen!
With that thought in mind, the man took out his phone and called Nico to find out what was going on on her side. If she refuses to make a move, I’m going to have to carry on without her.
As soon as the call went through, Nico answered, ‘‘Aaron?’‘
She was surprised that the man reached out to her but tried to keep her voice down after turning to check on the person lying on a hospital bed beside her.
