A Beauty With Multiple Masks

Chapter 1333 Warmth

“Pat!” Hubert chided his son as he was worried Aaron would get mad. But, instead of getting mad, Aaron found their family interesting.

“Dad, Pat’s right. He’s evil!” Arielle chimed in as she glanced at Aaron calmly. Aaron still needs our help, so he won’t harm us.

She continued, “Dad, Mom, you’ll have to come to Turlen with me. I don’t know how long we’ll have to be there, so you should make some arrangements for your work, too.”

Arielle helped Pat up before helping her adoptive parents to the couch.

The Wilhelms adored Arielle and doted on her like their own, so they knew she had been looking for her biological father.

Previously, they heard there was a clue in Turlen, but the country was closed to outsiders, so she couldn’t head there to check things out for herself.

Now that Arielle finally had a chance to go to Turlen, they would definitely keep her company.

Even if Aaron agreed to release them, they would rather be kidnapped so they could follow Arielle to Turlen to take care of her.

“San, it’s nothing. You’re our daughter, and we’re delighted to go on a trip with you,” Andrea said gently as she ruffled Arielle’s hair. Despite being forced to head to Turlen, they were treating it as a family trip.

Hearing her words, Arielle nearly burst out crying.

“Mom!” She buried herself into Andrea’s embrace, taking in the warmth and love from her mother. Pat quickly flung his arms around Arielle and Andrea tightly. Seeing that, Andrea and Hubert shared a glance and smiled.

Aaron’s gaze tracked their movements, and he felt envious to see their interaction. This was how a family should be like—to always be happy no matter what as long as they were together. On the contrary, his family was detached and cool. His parents had never acted this way.

He longed for this kind of familial relationship.

“Aaron, can you leave now? We’ve agreed to go to Turlen, and we won’t go back on our word. There’s no need for you to stay and watch us.”

Sensing Aaron’s gaze, Arielle belatedly remembered there were still outsiders in their house. She pulled herself away from Andrea’s embrace and told the man to leave right away. Embarrassment crept up her heart when she realized outsiders had seen her acting coy in Andrea’s arms.

“You won’t get to go back on your word. I’ve arranged for my men to keep an eye on you, so you can’t escape. Since you don’t want me here, I shall take my leave. Remember, you only have one day to settle your stuff. Tomorrow night at this hour, we shall leave Lightspring for Turlen.”

Aaron was amused to see Arielle’s embarrassment. I can’t believe the little kitty is acting shy!

“I got it. So leave!” Arielle harrumphed. She wouldn’t escape, for nothing was more important than getting to Turlen.

Without a word, Aaron spun on his heels and strode away. He had bugged their electronic devices. If they tried to ask for help, he would find out about it right away. There was no harm in giving them another day.

After his departure, the Wilhelms started questioning Arielle.

“Are you here alone? Or did you come with Vin?” Hubert asked.

Arielle’s expression changed at the mention of Vinson. “Dad, Vinson came here with me. Aaron didn’t want Vinson to find out about your kidnapping, so I kept it a secret from him. I was delaying time and trying to shake him off when a shooting happened. Vinson was shot when he tried to save a child.”
