Captive Hearts: The Tycoon's Ugly Bride novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48 Scar Gets Rubbed Off

Diving into the water, Louis searched around before he found Blanche trapped at the bottom of the pool. He swam over to her, his expression angry.

Blanche's eyes widened in surprise and relief as she saw someone coming to rescue her.

However, as Louis approached, his pupils trembled. Through the water, he could clearly see the hideous scar on Blanche's face.

Her mask had fallen off, revealing an ugly scar that looked like a grotesque bug crawling on her face. She looked like a female ghost.

It happened too suddenly and Blanche didn't realize her mask had fallen off. She grabbed Louis's hand and pointed to her leg anxiously.

Louis didn't care what Blanche was trying to say. Without any mercy, he grabbed her and tried to pull her out of the water.

When he couldn't move her, he turned around and glared at her.

Blanche anxiously pointed to her leg again. Louis looked over and finally noticed that her leg was entangled in the water plants.

He swam over and untangled her leg before swimming away.

As soon as Blanche surfaced, she realized something was wrong with her face. She touched it and found that her mask had fallen off!

She dove back into the water to look for it.

Meanwhile, on the shore, Cathy quietly clenched the mask and put it in her bag. She was waiting for Blanche, the ugly woman, to come ashore and face everyone's ridicule.

Louis pulled Blanche out of the water, wondering why she was still swimming around like she had a death wish.

"What are you still swimming for? Get out of the water!"

Blanche finally understood why Louis looked so terrified when he saw her underwater.

But she was exhausted and couldn't swim anymore. She touched her scar. What was the point of being afraid? Anyway, she was determined to make them think she was ugly.

With her head held high, Blanche stepped onto the stairs and walked ashore.

As expected, people started to gossip about her.

"Oh, she's so ugly! That scar is so scary-looking."

"Seriously, she's so ugly. She makes me want to puke."

"How can someone so ugly marry into the Herbart family? It's so unfair. I'm much more beautiful than her!"

......

As soon as she got ashore, Blanche was bombarded with comments about her appearance.

Louis was embarrassed. He didn't want to face Blanche who looked so ugly, so he turned to leave with a cold face.

But Blanche beat him to it. She was affected and threw herself into his arms, her slender arms wrapped around his strong waist as she whispered.

"Honey, I'm so cold. Someone pushed me just now deliberately and scared me. You have to avenge me."
