Chapter 6 Masked Man
The night was silent.
Evian town had become quieter since it was bought by the Winsors, especially at night, and no sound
could be heard.
Ceres stood on the balcony on the third floor. She was staring at the silver moon on the horizon.
The messages from her mobile phone deeply hurt her heart.
"Ceres, I have not contacted you for several days. I cannot even find your student status in the school.
Your bed in the dormitory also was given to another student. What happened"? You must tell me." The
news came from Alice Clark, Ceres's friend.
"We can go to England together, but the teacher informed me that your application was canceled, and I
could not even find your student status. What happened to you? Return the text quickly." The news
came from Kirs Shaw, another of her friend.
In order not to let people saw the flaw, Mike wiped her past clean, as if there had never been Ceres in
the world.
She replied to them respectively, "I am fine. I have to leave for a while, don't worry."
After sending the message, she turned off her mobile phone.
If she did not marry as a substitute for Mary, she could go to England with Kirs, which would be a good Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
thing.
Looking at the time, she went to her husband's room. In order to avoid the other day's embarrassment,
she only wiped his face and hands after massaging.
After doing those things, she went back to the balcony. Sometimes she thought that she was quite
sorry for him.
Marriage for dispersing bad luck was a feudal superstition. That was right.
But what if it really worked? Then she harmed him. After all, she was a fake. Her birthday was different
from Mary's. If she could not dispel his bad luck but brought him some bad luck as to make him dead.
That was a sin.
Suddenly, she felt someone behind her, and she suddenly turned around. Sure enough, a man wearing
a mask stood there!
She looked at him warily. "Who are you?" Then, she let out a cry of fright.
"It's me." The deep and magnetic sound came.
The sound was too easy to be recognized.
Ceres remembered the man's voice. It was the person who saved her that day!
"It's you!"
In fact, those two days she also wondered why she could not see the bodyguard that day.
He was her husband's bodyguard and should be beside Johny.
"I'm sorry about that day. I did not mean to slap you. I was scared..."
The masked man did not speak.
Looking at the masked man carefully, she spoke. "Hey, what are you doing wearing a mask in the
middle of the night?"
"My face has been injured, so I don't want others to see my face." The masked man's voice was still
low, without any emotion.
Ceres shook her head. "So what? Look at me!"
As she spoke, she pointed to the right half of her face. "Why do you care so much about what others
think of you? Being yourself is the most important thing. People who care about you will not care about
the injury on your face. People who do not care about you are not worth your attention at all."
The masked man looked at her with deep eyes. Although the calm smiling face was spotted, it did not
hinder the agility and beauty of his eyes.
He could not believe she lived so thoroughly at an early age.
She was not like those pampered darling daughters in the rich family, but like a girl who had
experienced many hardships.
The masked man frowned slightly. "Who are you?"
