His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 268

Matthias heard the voice as well. After hugging Cindy hastily, he spun around and climbed up the locust tree to the wall before leaping down outside.

“Cindy!”

Louisa's voice sounded increasingly nearer.

Pretending as though nothing had happened, Cindy whirled around in surprise and trotted over to her. “Why are you up so early, Louisa?”

Louisa regarded her coldly and drawled, “I seem to have seen someone else here earlier.”

In response, Cindy spread her hands innocently. “There's no one else here. You must have been seeing things, Louisa. I just got up early and didn't want to wake you, so I decided to get out

of bed and take a walk to get some fresh air.”

Louisa's expression was grim, making it clear as day that she didn't believe the other woman.

But just as she was about to say something else, a monk in green robes came over and whispered a few words in her ear.

Her expression changed slightly, and there was a conflicted look in her eyes as she gazed at Cindy.

Cindy felt very much ill at ease at her odd scrutiny.

Don't tell me they spotted Matthias? But that shouldn't be possible. He was in the army many years back, and he still keeps in shape to this very day As such, his movements are exceedingly light and agile. He couldn't possibly have been discovered so easily.

While she was panicking inwardly, Louisa finally murmured, “You can go back now.”

Cindy didn't realize the meaning of her words at first and even thought that Louisa was asking her to go back to her room. Thus, she nodded fervently. “I'll go back and wash up right away in preparation for fetching water.”

However, Louisa's brows furrowed, and she retorted, “I'm not asking you to return to your room. I'm saying that you can go home.”

Cindy was instantly stumped. With her eyes almost popping out of her head in disbelief, she exclaimed, “Are you joking with me, Louisa?”

Louisa merely uttered with a frigid expression on her face, “The car is already waiting outside.

Wait for me for a bit. I'll pack some things and go back with you.”
