Chapter 816

A Beauty With Multiple Masks

Marcus had made dinner plans with a few of his close friends. But before he could leave the campus,
he received a phone call from Wendy.

Immediately, he felt irritated as his mood darkened. Isn‘t Wendy responsible for Aaron‘s campus tour?
Why is she calling me now?

Although Marcus wanted nothing more than to ignore her call, the archive was an area with restricted
access.

Though it did not contain any secrets, many of the archive‘s documents were precious, and Marcus
was afraid that they might be damaged.

That being said, an intruder in the archive wasn‘t a big deal, it would only be detrimental if the intruder
decided to wreak havoc.

“Wait for me. I‘ll be there in three minutes,” Marcus said after a brief moment.

“All right, Mr. Brown,” Wendy replied before she hung up the call. A look of glee gleamed in her eyes.

Arielle really is a stupid girl. If she’d come out after I confronted her, things would blow off. Yet, she is
as stubborn as ever. I can‘t believe she remained in the archive to spite me. She‘s practically asking for
it! No one can help her now,

Wendy noticed there were several onlookers around her. Immediately, she wiped the cold smile off her
face and replaced it with a mask of worry, “Can someone here help me? I‘m afraid that the intruder
might slight out before Mr. Brown is here.”





Although Wendy was gifted with gorgeous looks, her personality was rotten to the core.

Most of the students weren’t familiar with her devilish personality and merely saw a beautiful student
begging for help. Without a second thought, they dropped their books and rushed forward to help
Wendy.

“Miss, don’t worry. We will guard the entrance and make sure that the intruder doesn’t have a chance
to escape.”

“That‘s right, don’t worry about it.”



“With us here, we’ll make sure the intruder has no where to run off to!”

Earlier, they were busy studying and did not notice the intruder‘s identity. Instead, they were
mesmerized by Wendy‘s looks and leaped forward to help her. They were oblivious to Wendy‘s sinister
intentions.

“Thank you so much.” Wendy smiled sweetly in reply. The male students were smitten by her gorgeous
smile and it motivated them even more to catch the intruder red-handed.

Back in the archive, Arielle continued to browse through the files after Wendy‘s departure.

She managed to confirm that the mysterious person who rescued Cindy was most likely affiliated with
the organization that killed her mother, too.

Additionally, the man pictured in the photograph with her mother was the only lead she had on the
organization.

Since he was her only clue, Arielle needed to find out his identity as soon as possible.



Although neither Arielle nor Vinson found a match when they ran his picture in the global database,
Arielle refused to give up. The photograph was proof that he existed in this world. There were bound to
be traces of his existence.

In her previous bout of chess with Josiah, she had asked the latter about the man‘s identity. Though
Josiah‘s memory was hazy, he managed to confirm that the man was Maureen‘s secret boyfriend.

I need to find this man as soon as possible!

Since Arielle was a highly focused person, she tended to forget about her surroundings when she was
fixated on something

Hence, she had long forgotten her incident with Wendy.

After a few minutes, Marcus finally arrived at the library.

Coincidentally, the librarian had gone for a bathroom break and missed Marcus’ arrival.

Marcus made a beeline for the archive and noticed the horde swarming outside of the archive‘s
entrance.
