Chapter 233 Your Filthy Tricks

“Doesn’t it take a while for the water to heat up? When I was living by the countryside, it’d take about five

to six minutes before the water becomes warm.” Arielle smiled innocently.

Yvette studied her face to make out if she was speaking the truth. She was relieved when she found

nothing odd.

No wonder she’s out here while the water was running in the bathroom. This country girl probably didn’t

know that the water system in my house maintains at a constant temperature, and hot water would run

from the showerhead instantly.

“I knew you were going to hand me some clean clothes anyway. Thus, I decided to wait until you bring

me the clothes before I hop into the shower,” Arielle continued.

Yvette’s suspicion instantly vanished when she heard Arielle’s explanation.

I guess I’ve overestimated her.

Yvette smiled and said, “Actually, our house runs on a constant temperature water system. So there’s no

need to wait.”

“Oh, I see,” Arielle exclaimed in surprise. “How advanced! It’s not like this back at in my place.”

Yvette had never showered at the Southalls, so she didn’t know that Arielle was lying.

Thus when Yvette heard that, she secretly sneered at Arielle’s statement and looked down on the

Southalls too.

I can’t believe they’d have to wait for the water to heat up!

“Alright. You can take a shower now. Do have some cake when you’re done. My dad’s probably done

with his shower as well and is waiting for you. I believe he has prepared a surprise for you. I hope you

won’t refuse it because you deserved it!” Yvette said.

Well, the huge surprise I’m about to gift you is also something only you deserve. It’s a shame you’re

always in my way. Or else I wouldn’t have to do this.

Yet, she did not know that Arielle had understood the hidden meaning behind her words. She had

already guessed what the “huge surprise” was about.

Both Matthias and Yvette had exposed themselves by revealing clues like the guest room and the aroma

diffuser. Hence, Arielle figured out their plan.

I knew they were going to set me up. Yet, I didn’t expect it to be this! Well, they won’t succeed.

Arielle smiled at her gratefully before picking up the clothes on the ground and headed toward the

bathroom.

Nevertheless, she stopped halfway and turned to face Yvette. “There’s a huge crowd today, and I’m

worried that someone might accidentally barge in. So why don’t you wait for me outside? I’ve locked the

door from the outside.”

Yvette began to worry when she heard Arielle’s words.

How am I going to carry out my plan if she locks me outside? She is, indeed, a very careful person.

Things were not going as Yvette planned, but she was very calm.

I will find it weird if things go as planned without any mishaps and thought that she was just playing along

on purpose.

Hence, Yvette calmed herself down and took out the aroma diffuser from her purse before placing it by

the door.

Arielle eyed the aroma diffuser and asked, “Is that a candle, Yvette? It’s super bright in here, so why are

you lighting a candle?”

Yvette secretly sneered at her comment. How could she not know what an aroma diffuser was?

Nevertheless, she held back her laughter and explained patiently, “Oh, this is an aroma diffuser. It

functions as an air purifier once it’s lit. We had a few guests who stayed in this room in the past. I was

worried there might be traces of an odd smell. So, I’ll light it up for you.”

“You’re so thoughtful, Yvette. Thank you, but I’m not particular about such things.” Arielle smiled faintly.

Yvette smiled back.

“Well, that’s okay. But you’ve done us a great favor, and we can’t thank you enough. It’s the least that I

can do for you.”

Then, she took out a lighter and lit the wick of the aroma diffuser.

Once it was lit, Yvette held her breath and said, “Alright then. I’ll leave you to take a shower. But, I don’t

think you should lock your door. I’ll just wait outside and keep an eye out for you.”

Arielle hesitated for a moment and replied, “Okay. But be sure to keep an eye out for me. There are way

too many people today, and it’ll be a catastrophe if someone barge in unintentionally.”

Yvette was nearly out of breath but managed to answer, “No worries. I’ll be on the lookout.” Then, she

quickly left the room.

Arielle watched Yvette close the door behind her and listened carefully to make sure she had gone away.

Then, Arielle quickly walked to the window, opened it, and gasped for fresh air.

She noticed Yvette began to hold her breath the moment she lit the aroma diffuser.

Hence, she followed suit and held her breath until now. It was apparent that there was something wrong

with the aroma diffuser.

Once Arielle regained steady breathing, she took a deep breath and held it until she reached the aroma

diffuser to blow it out.

Concurrently, she brought the aroma diffuser by the window to allow the remaining scent to disperse into

the air before examining it.

She couldn’t find anything wrong with it at first. The aroma diffuser was made of conventional paraffin

wax. Yet, she discovered something out of the ordinary when she looked at the wick.

The wick of the lamp had a hollow space that contained some light blue solids.

So that’s what it is—these little solids hidden in the wick.

Arielle whipped out her bag and grabbed some tools before she extracted the wick to examine the

mysterious blue solids.

In the meantime, Yvette had rushed downstairs to look for Mason.

Mason was both Shandie and Arielle’s cousin. Hence, he was only considered a distant relative of the

Actonwards.

Yvette found Mason drinking by himself, and she believed he was a little tipsy as his cheeks had turned

red.

Mason wasn’t the best-looking guy out there, and unfortunately, the pimples he had on his face made it

worse.

He came from average family background, and his tertiary education funds were also sponsored by the

Actonwards and the Southalls. As soon as he graduated, he was immediately hired as an employee to

the Southall Group with Cindy’s help.

Yet, his ability only landed him as a project lead despite sharing a relationship with the owner of the

company.

Cindy assigned him to get rid of Arielle and promised to promote him as a manager. However, he failed

miserably and almost lost his life at sea!

Ever since that accident, Cindy began to ignore him. Thus, he felt greatly dejected.

When he saw Arielle again, he was surprised to see her transform from a country girl to a beautiful,

noble lady. To add on, she also possessed extraordinary medical skills. Her transformation had made

him doubt himself.

How did a country girl change so much in a blink of an eye? I was born and raised in Jadeborough, yet I

only earn seven thousand per month. This is so unfair!

Mason thought to himself as he sat alone and drank his sadness away.

He took another glass of champagne and drank it quickly.

Before the glass could reach his lips, a long and slender hand reached out and stopped him.

Who is this? How dare you interrupt me?

Mason looked up impatiently and found a beautiful face in front of him. His heart skipped a beat, and he

hurriedly got up from the chair. “What is it, Yvette? Did something happen to your father?” he asked.
