Confession
“How did you find out those who kidnapped Geoffrey’s family are Turlenians?”
“Geoffrey described the person’s face. We ran a search but didn’t find this person in the global face
database. Turlen is the only country not in the database,” Vinson revealed calmly. After a pause, he
added, “Besides, someone saw Sannie in Turlen.”
“Someone saw Sannie?” Susanne was confused. “But isn’t Turlen closed to outsiders? How did you
know someone spotted her there?”
“Previously, I hired an investigator and told him to sneak into Turlen to find out something. I didn’t know
he’ll see Sannie there,” Vinson explained patiently.
Susanne was at a loss for words.
Seeing her reaction, Vinson belatedly recalled she used to be against their relationship because of
Turlen. He massaged his temples and assured her, “Mom, don’t worry about Turlen. I’ll bring Sannie
back safely.”
“You’re going there personally?” Susanne was concerned.
“Mm. You know how difficult it is for outsiders to enter Turlen. I can’t leave this to someone else. Our
efforts will go down the drain if we alert the enemies.”
He’s right. But as a mother, I can’t watch my son risking his life to save Arielle. He’s already wounded!
“You should rest and head there after you recover.” She tried to persuade him to delay his departure.
Vinson shook his head. He refused to wait any longer. In fact, he wanted to bring Arielle back right that
instant.
“Mom, don’t worry. I’m fine. Sannie’s more important now,” Vinson told her. He got to his feet to head
out.
Suddenly, Susanne’s eyes widened. She ran to the door and yelled, “Vinson…”
At that moment, back in Turlen.
Aaron arrived at Paelsford Manor with a bouquet of lush roses.
“Arielle, this is for you!” He flashed a devilishly handsome smile and offered the bouquet to
Arielle. From today onward, I shall court Arielle and make her forget about Vinson.
“Are you crazy?” Arielle rolled her eyes irritatedly.
Hearing that, Aaron brightened up. “How do you know I’m crazy? Yes, I miss you like crazy!” he
declared.
“You’re a lunatic!”
“Ms. Moore, I’ve decided to court you. No matter what you say, I won’t take it to heart,” Aaron
announced cheerfully, ignoring her comment.
“Thanks for that, but I won’t accept it. I’m already married to the man I love,” Arielle snorted.
Aaron was upset to hear that Vinson was the man Arielle loved from her lips. “So what if you’re
married? You can get a divorce anytime.”
“Yes, you’re right. I can get a divorce.”
“Yes, you shall get a divorce then!” A triumphant smile hung on Aaron’s lips.
Arielle gazed at him as though he had gone mad. “Why would I divorce him? We love each other
deeply. There’s no way we’ll get a divorce.”
Aaron was speechless.
“I’m better than Vinson,” he argued.
“But I only love Vinson,” Arielle replied calmly.
Aaron felt his heart break into a million pieces. “I’ll make sure you fall in love with me.”
Arielle shot him a look and shook her head. “Perhaps the next lifetime. You don’t stand a chance this
lifetime.”
“Why?” Aaron managed between gritted teeth.
“Because Vinson is the only man I love in this lifetime,” Arielle repeated. Is he a fool? Haven’t I made
myself clear?
