A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 844

The sudden news left Cornelius in a daze. It wasn’t until Arielle’s reminder that he finally regained his senses.

“Francis is my younger brother. Occasionally, he would drop by the shop to help out,” he explained.

In truth, Arielle didn’t want to involve herself with the Mills’ family matters.

“Her uncontrollable convulsions and the red welts on her skin are clear signs of tick paralysis. Was it possible that

your brother brought in ticks when he visited Jennie?” Arielle asked.

Cornelius’ eyes lit up. “My brother is an avid hiker.”

“An avid hiker…” Arielle mumbled before she turned to Jennie’s parents and said, “Can the two of you wait outside?

I want to give her a thorough examination.”

The couple trusted Cornelius immensely. Naturally, they listened to Arielle as she was a fellow doctor introduced by

Cornelius.

After they vacated the room, only Arielle, Cornelius, and Jennie were left.

“Did you and Francis sleep together?” Arielle asked without beating around the bush.

Jennie’s face flushed with embarrassment as she glanced at Cornelius, unsure if she should tell the truth.

“Jennie, please don’t lie. Although I’m Francis’ elder brother, I am also your doctor. There is nothing that you can’t

share with me,” Cornelius said with a frown.

“Yes,” Jennie murmured as she hung her head in embarrassment.

“Okay.” Arielle nodded. “I’ll get Dr. Mill to give us some privacy before I check your body. Is that all right?”

“Okay.”

Upon hearing Arielle’s words, Cornelius left the room.

Although Jennie was mortified and scared, she allowed Arielle to remove her pants and inspect her body.

After all, they had checked every part of Jennie’s body except for her private areas.

Since Jennie and Francis had just engaged in sexual intercourse, the tick must be somewhere here.

True to her assumptions, it didn’t take long before Arielle found the tick. Its tiny head was already burrowed into

Jennie’s skin.

Now that the tick had been removed, Cornelius could handle the rest.

With the tick in hand, Arielle opened the door and showed it to them.

The tick’s abdomen was swollen with Jennie’s blood.

Arielle hurled it to the ground and stomped on it. “You know how to handle the rest, right?” she asked Cornelius.

The man nodded. “Yes. Thank you for your help, Ms. Moore.”

The grateful couple rushed forward and showered Arielle with their thanks.

Arielle merely waved her hand sheepishly. “Don’t forget my herbs, all right? I’ll be waiting outside.”

With that, Arielle made her way back to the foyer.

After the ordeal, the staff was finally back from their lunch break. After Arielle purchased the herbs she needed, she

was ready to leave.

All of a sudden, Cornelius ran after her. “Ms. Moore, please wait!”

Arielle came to a screeching halt as she whirled around in panic. “Did something happen to Jennie again?”

“Not at all.” Cornelius ushered her to a corner so that no one could eavesdrop on their conversation. “I have dealt

with Jennie’s illness. Please forgive me if this irks you, but I relayed the incident earlier to my father. He wants to

invite you to the Mills’ heir selection happening next month.”

“The Mills’ heir selection?” Arielle echoed in confusion.

“Yes.” Cornelius nodded. “There are a total of three siblings in our household. Since our father married late, he was

forty when I was born. Now that he’s getting older, he thinks that it’s time for him to step down and pass on his

position as the head of the house to someone else.”

“Does your father want me to help him pick his heir?”

“Not at all.” Cornelius waved his hand to dismiss Arielle’s assumptions. “He wants you to partake in the Mills’ heir

selection.”

“Huh?” Arielle was utterly shocked by Cornelius’ words. “But I’m not part of the Mills.

Besides, Queenie would murder me if I were to join the selection.
