Chapter 4 Face
Chapter 4 Face
"Mr. Herbart, Mrs. Herbart''s face..."
nche''s heart skipped a beat because she thought her lie would be exposed. She hurriedly
lowered her head, picked up the mask, put it on, and grabbed the servant''s hand.
"Don''t me her. I scared her when taking off the mask."
"No, you did not scare me. It''s..."
Before finishing speaking, the servant felt a sharp pain in her hand. It was because nche had
pinched her hard out of desperation.
"Mrs. Herbart..."
The servant nkly stared at her, wondering why she didn''t let her tell the truth.
nche patted her on the back andforted her, saying, "Don''t be afraid. I''ll wear a mask all the
time. Don''t worry. I won''t scare you again."
The servant kept her mouth open because she couldn''t close it. She did not understand why Mrs.
Herbart was telling such a lie.
Seeing the weird scene, Louis pondered for a moment and frowned, "Since you know how ugly you
are, you should cover your face well! Don''t show it to people to disgrace me."
Although he maintained a calm face, he felt chills down his spine. Since nche''s face had made
the servants scream in fright, she must be extremely ugly!
nche breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he believed it.
Louis soon turned around and went downstairs. He didn''t even want to go into the bedroom after
such an incident.
"Mrs. Herbart, your face has no scars at all. Why are you wearing a mask?"
nche sized the servant up. The girl had an immature face and seemed in her early twenties. Her
eyes looked clear, so nche did not think she would stir up trouble.
"What''s your name?"
"My name is ra."
"ra, please don''t tell anyone about it. I have my reasons for doing this. If you keep the secret, I
will return your favor."
"Well, OK," ra nodded with difficulty.
After ra went out with the tableware, nche picked up her phone and found her best friend Erin
had sent her a text message.
"nche, are you still alive? Has the Herbart family torn you apart?"
nche quickly replied, "You wicked girl, are you expecting something bad to happen to me? I''m
fine! By the way, how are the sales of D&S''s new jewelry?"
Erin instantly responded, "I am caring about you! D&S''s new products are selling well. nche, you
are amazing! Every piece of jewelry you design is popr. You are a genius."
nche twirled the small ruby ring on her middle finger and smiled brightly.
"You finally realized it. Treat me better in the future! If you follow me, I will help you make a fortune."
"Tch, don''t be smug. By the way, do you n to wear a mask all the time in the Herbart family? You
are a beautiful woman, but you wear a mask to make people believe you''re ugly. What a pity!"

nche replied, "Yes, I will always wear a mask. I was forced to marry Louis. He thinks I am
extremely ugly, so he will be in a hurry to divorce me. I will regain my freedom soon. But before that,
I must find Henry and persuade him into performing the surgery on my grandma."
nche had married into the Herbart family because Dany and Nicole had threatened her with
Ang''s surgery. Her grandma Ang had a tumor in her brain and needed a veryplicated
surgery to remove it.
Only two doctors could do the operation. One was Nicole''s uncle James, and the other was Louis''s
cousin Henry.
Henry was very mysterious. Although he was famous, few people had seen him. Before she found
him, only James could keep Ang alive. It was because of Ang''s operation that Nicole
managed to pin down nche.
If she had refused to marry Louis in ce of Nicole, James would have refused to operate on
Ang.
Louis was rumored to be a worthless cripple. Nicole was proud and arrogant, so she was unwilling
to marry such a man.
The dowry from the Herbart family was a piece ofnd, so Dany had been tempted. Her daughter
had refused to marry Louis, but she wanted to get the valuable dowry. Therefore, they hade up
with the idea of letting nche marry him.
After chatting with Erin, nche felt a little thirsty.
She picked up the teapot in the bedroom but found it empty. So, she could only go downstairs to
drink water.
After reaching the living room, she stopped a servant. The ce was so big that she could not see
where the kitchen was.
"Where is the kitchen? I''m thirsty."
The servant intently stared at her face as if she could see the ugly scar through the mask. Seeing
nche frown, she suddenly realized she was too impolite. So, she hurriedly said, "Mrs. Herbart,
please follow me".
Following the servant to the kitchen, nche looked back. The servant had nced at the door
next to her with a strange look just now. There might be something fishy inside.
After entering the kitchen, nche ordered, "Please add some water to the teapot in the bedroom."
After sending the servant away, nche took a sip of water, left the kitchen, and stared at the room
the servant had nced at just now. The door was ajar.
Suddenly, there was a delicate voice from inside.
