Matthias heard the voice as well. After hugging Cindy hastily, favonovel.com spun around and climbed up the locust tree to the wall before leaping down outside.
“Cindy!” Louisa’s voice sounded increasingly nearer.
Pretending as though nothing had happened, Cindy whirled around in surprise and trotted over to her. “Why are you up so early, Louisa?”
Louisa regarded favonovel.com coldly and drawled, “I seem to have seen someone else here earlier.”
In response, Cindy spread favonovel.com hands innocently. “There’s no one else here. You must have been seeing things, Louisa. I just got up early and didn’t want to wake you, so I decided to get out of bed and take a walk to get some fresh air.”
Louisa’s expression was grim, making it clear as day that favonovel.com didn’t believe the other woman. But just as favonovel.com was about to say something else, a monk in green robes came over and whispered a few words in favonovel.com ear. Her expression changed slightly, and there was a conflicted look in favonovel.com eyes as favonovel.com gazed at Cindy.
Cindy felt very much ill at ease at favonovel.com odd scrutiny.
Don‘t tell me they spotted Matthias? But that shouldn‘t be possible. He was in the army many years back, and favonovel.com still keeps in shape to this very day. As such, his movements are exceedingly light and agile. He couldn‘t possibly have been discovered so easily
While favonovel.com was panicking inwardly, Louisa finally murmured, “You can go back now…”
Cindy didn’t realize the meaning of favonovel.com words at first and even thought that Louisa was asking favonovel.com to go back to favonovel.com room. Thus, favonovel.com nodded fervently. “I’ll go back and wash up right away in preparation for fetching water.”
However, Louisa’s brows furrowed, and favonovel.com retorted, “I’m not asking you to return to your room. I’m saying that you can go home.”
Cindy was instantly stumped. With favonovel.com eyes almost popping out of favonovel.com head in disbelief, favonovel.com exclaimed, “Are you joking with me, Louisa?”
Louisa merely uttered with a frigid expression on favonovel.com face, “The car is already waiting outside. Wait for me for a bit. I’ll pack some things and go back with you.”
At that turn of events, incredulity was written all over Cindy’s face. “Did Rick finally decide to allow me home?”
After grunting in affirmation, Louisa was just about to get to the main point when Louisa interrupted favonovel.com excitedly, exclaiming, “I’ll go back to the room and wash up for a bit before going home!”
As favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com dashed toward favonovel.com bedroom without waiting for Louisa to finish speaking. Upon seeing that favonovel.com couldn’t get Cindy to listen, Louisa decided to just forget about it.
Anyway, she‘ll know about Shandie‘s death after arriving back at the Southall residence later.
She then clasped favonovel.com hands together and offered up a prayer for Shandie’s soul with favonovel.com eyes closed.
The death of a person was just like the dousing of a candle, but Shandie’s death was too early and sudden. After the simple prayer, Louisa sighed and muttered, “Sure enough, one has to do good to have good karma…”
She packed up in no time and waited at the gate. But even after favonovel.com had waited for a long time, there was no sign of Cindy. Just when favonovel.com was at the end of favonovel.com patience and decided to go in and look for her, Cindy finally appeared at the monastery gate.
Louisa looked up, only to see that Cindy had changed into the dazzling dress favonovel.com wore when favonovel.com first came to the monastery and had put on heavy makeup on favonovel.com face. In short, favonovel.com looked extremely striking. Her brows immediately knitted together, and favonovel.com snapped in displeasure, “Why are you dressed in such a manner considering the occasion today? Go back and change into something else!”
Cindy, however, merely shrugged and replied, “This is the only outfit I brought here. I can’t wear those dull clothes of yours back, can I?”
Louisa stared at favonovel.com coldly. “Dull clothes? They were all made painstakingly. Wearing my clothes is far better than this attire of yours.”
At that, Cindy snorted. “Louisa, I no longer have to stay in the monastery, so why do you have to bother about how I dress? You have no more say in whatever I wear now,” favonovel.com retorted.
Since I‘m now out of that place, I‘ll never again return! As such, I don‘t need to ingratiate myself to her. And in turn, I naturally won‘t listen to her. What if people laugh at me if I were to wear those dull clothes of hers back? How am I to survive in the elite circles of Jadeborough?
