Chapter 775

Matthias was so anxious that he could die.

If he knew what happened back then, he would have told Arielle everything in Cindy‘s place.

Biting her lower lip, Cindy looked at her lover with bloodshot eyes. “You think I don‘t know how bad
things look for us right now? But I just can‘t do it.”

If I tell Arielle the truth, I‘ll spend the rest of my life in prison. Even if she decides to let me go, those
guys will come knocking. I don‘t really have a choice here.

Arielle shrugged in response. “I guess you two couldn‘t come to an agreement, huh? Then I have no
choice but to send Cindy back to the pigsty.”

“No! Please don‘t!” Cindy could feel her stomach turning when she remembered how the rats and
cockroaches crawled over her face in the sty.

What followed was the sound of Cindy vomiting her guts out.

“Please, Cin. Just tell Arielle what she needs to hear. Staying in prison is a hundred times better than
rotting away in this godforsaken place!” begged Matthias, who was already drenched in sweat.

“But…” Cindy knew that her life would be ruined if she was sent to jail.

“Think about it, Cin! Do you really want to spend the rest of your life in the pigsty? Living your life like a
pig?”

After a moment of internal conflict, Cindy finally gave in. “I‘ll do it! I‘ll tell you everything you want to
know. Just don‘t send me back to that disgusting hole!”



“You have my word. Now start talking,” demanded Arielle after pulling up a chair.

One of the bodyguards then kicked Cindy behind the knee and forced her to kneel before Arielle.

With her teeth clenched, Cindy started revealing the truth to the woman.

“Back then, Maureen was both beautiful and brilliant. She had lifted our family to new heights single
handedly. As for me, her sister, I had always lived in her shadow. I became invisible to everyone
whenever she was around. Heck, many people didn‘t even know that I existed because that was just
how overshadowed I was by your mother. I hated it. I hated it so much! So, I decided to get back at her
by ruining her relationship with Henrick. That coward was terrified that your mother would find out about
him and me, but I was dying to let her know the truth. I wanted to see how she would react after finding
out that her husband had slept with me, so I texted her and told her everything.”

“You told my mother the truth yourself? inquired Arielle curiously.

“Yes,” answered Cindy with a bitter smile and eyes full of regret. “However, I never expected her to
give.

Henrick and me her blessings after hearing about our affair. That crazy woman even divorced Henrick
just so I could be with him.”

“You don‘t deserve a sister like her. How could you hurt

someone who had been nothing but kind to you?” Vinson scowled frustratingly at the woman kneeling
before Arielle.

“Kind to me?” asked Cindy rhetorically before cackling in disbelief. “Do you actually think that was what
I wanted? Her kindness? The only reason I slept with Henrick was just so that I could get back at her.



Unfortunately, it turned out that she never cared for the man at all. Henrick was worthless to her. Your
mother gave me a worthless man! Is that what you consider kindness?”

Vinson shook his head. “You were too blinded by your jealousy and hatred toward your sister. You‘re
never going to be satisfied with whatever she did for you.”

“You think you know me so well, don‘t you?”

“Go on. Tell me how you killed my mother,” instructed Arielle coldly.

After chuckling to herself, Cindy continued, “I knew something was off. Someone as proud as Maureen
would never let me have the man she loved. That woman didn‘t even flinch when she divorced Henrick.
So, I started digging, and as expected, I found out that she was looking for a man. I was sure that was
the man whom her heart belonged to, so I tried to expose her.”

“And?”
