A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 923
More importantly, Arielle couldn‘t believe that she didn‘t know anything about Vinson using himself as
bait. What else has he secretly done for me?
“Aren‘t you the same?” Carter remarked as he swept a nce at Arielle. “You didn‘t make yourself clear
earlier about the patient you were trying to save. Is he an enemy of yours? What on earth happened to
you?”
“Since you won‘t let me call Vin, you’ll have toe clean with me. If anything happens to you, Vin‘s
going to me me for it, so please understand my need to keep you safe and sound.”
Left with no other choice, Arielle blurted everything out about Wendy
The more Carter listened, the more solemn his expression became.
He said coldly, “The Greenes truly deserve to go to hell. Then again, Vin does have ns to expand his
business to Horington. Horington has been developing rapidly over the past years, and its GDP is now
almost on par with Jadeborough. I know it‘s not the best time to wage war with the Greenes at this
crucial juncture, but it‘d be a different story if we can take them down in a single strike.”
“That‘s what I thought too, which is why I‘m keeping the matter from Vinson for now. However, I‘ve
already contacted the Specialized Forces to gather all the evil
deeds that the Greenes hadmitted. Once we have the evidence, we’ll be able to destroy them.”
Pleased with Arielle’s n, Carter nodded in agreement.
Rather than alert the Greenes and give them the chance to take precautions, it‘d be far wiser to lie low
and bide their time. Once they had gathered the evidence, they could then take the Greenes out once
and for all.
Even though the mercenaries sent by the Greenes had failed in their mission to kidnap and kill Arielle,
the Greenes could always hire top–notchwyers to plead their case down to a p on the wrist. Simply
put, Carter knew that suchwsuits wouldn‘t hurt the Greenes at all.
The Specialized Forces might be for special situations, but even they didn‘t have the right to arrest
anyone without evidence.
Thinking of that, Carter looked at Arielle in admiration. “Boss, you truly have the patience of a saint.
Anyone else in your situation, including me, would‘ve stormed up to the Greenes. I have to take my hat
off to you.”
Arielle let out a bitterugh. “If you also had to go undercover in the Southall family and endure months
of humiliation, you‘d have this kind of patience too.”
After all, Arielle knew better than anyone else how important it was to cultivate patience. Nothing good
ever came out of hurry and frustration, including revenge.
Holding Carter‘s gaze, she added, “That‘s why I need you to keep this from Vinson for now. The n has
to be foolproof.”
“Understood. I’ll keep this secret for you.”
As soon as Carter said that, the door to the ward was pushed open.
Jordan strode in, looking utterly confused. “Huh? What secret?”
Carter said calmly, “It’s nothing. We decided that it‘d be better not to tell Vin about this fainting spell lest
he panic and lose focus at work.”
Jordan replied with a nod, “Oh, I see. Don‘t worry. I’m more than happy to keep this a secret too!”
If Vin found out that I had identally touched Arielle‘s waist, I‘m sure he’d beat me to a pulp. On a side
note, Arielle‘s waist sure is slim!
Just then, Carter’s phone rang, and he promptly answered it.
A few momentster, however, his face fell. “I have to go to Harvey‘s.”
“Why? What‘s wrong with him?” Arielle asked.

Carter sighed in exasperation. “He refuses to take the medicine you‘ve prescribed, so I‘ll have to talk
some sense into him.”
Arielle‘s face clouded over as she nodded. “Hurry on, then. I merely fainted from exhaustion, but
everything‘s fine now. I‘ll head back once Iplete the IV drip.”
