Chapter 572

A Beauty With Multiple Masks

The doctors’ eyes that were once full of respect for Arielle now had a hint of contempt in them.

As a doctor, helping the injured and the sick was supposed to be their job. Yet, she was asking for money
from a patient who had just woken up.

She was tarnishing their careers by doing so.

It didn’t matter how good her medical skills were, as it wasn’t enough to cover up a taint like this.

Just as they were about to criticize her, Arielle said coldly, “Do you really think I want money? I saved
your life, so you better tell me the truth.”

Everyone was shocked by her words. However, the young man’s eyes widened when he heard what she
said, panic surfacing on his face.

The woman caught the change in expression on his face and was convinced that her hunch was right.

This young man had ingested the poison himself and blamed it on Soir Coffee.

It’s also obvious that his snobbish brother knew of this too.

“Does your mother not know what you and your brother planned?” Arielle asked coldly.

“I..” The patient didn’t dare to meet eyes with her, as it seemed like she could read right through him.

He looked away and came up with an excuse to brush her off, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.
I’m tired. I’d like to get some rest.”

“Rest?” Arielle raised a brow and continued, “It seems like you have no idea of your mother’s condition.
She fainted when she found out that you were in danger. I wonder if she finally woke up.”



“Mom…” The patient turned his head abruptly, panic filling his eyes.

Arielle was sure that he wasn’t the same as his brother.

That’s great. I found his weak spot.

“You have hemophilia, but the nurse outside told me that your mother has no idea of your condition. Let
me guess… You did this because of your medical fees, right?” she said.

“No…” the patient replied, instinctively shaking his head.

Not wanting to waste any more time with him, Arielle got straight to the point and said, “As long as you
admit to it, Rocher Private Hospital will handle all your medical fees. You won’t have to pay even if you
need å blood transfusion in the future.”

Hearing this, the patient bit on his lips, his heart already wavering at the option.

The woman then continued, “But… we still have a way

to get you to admit to it even if you don’t want to. The poison in your body is extremely rare, and it will
only work when mixed with coffee. Besides, finding out which snake it’s from isn’t difficult. However, if
that happens, not only will you not be able to get even anything, but there’s also a possibility that you’ll
end up in jail. How do you think your mother will feel if she finds out that her son framed a coffee shop for
the sake of money? She might think that it’d be better for you to die from your sickness. Those without
morals live a wasted life after all.”

Arielle was absolutely straightforward with her words, and a pained expression flashed across the
patient’s face.

He was pure at heart and his conscience wasn’t going to let that happen. His eyes reddened as he
spoke, “Alright. I’ll tell you what happened. But… You have to promise that you’ll keep this from Mom.”



“Sure,” Arielle nodded. “I’ll let her stay in the hospital for free with the excuse of having to recuperate her
body for one month. A month later, once this crisis is over, no one will mention the incident. An old lady
like your mother wouldn’t be going on the internet either, so she wouldn’t know. But you need to follow
me to the venue of the press conference right after this. Explain what actually happened to the press,
and you need to tell me who ordered you to do it.”

“I don’t know.”

The patient shook his head before adding, “I told my brother immediately after I found out that I’m sick. I
don’t know where he found out about this, but someone had promised us one million which we would be
getting from them, and also compensation from the Nightshire Group. That is if I inject the poison into my
body, drink the coffee at Soir Coffee, and then put the blame on the coffee shop. My brother was the one
they contacted so I know nothing about it.”
