If the rumors about Turlen's ancestry being out of the ordinary were true, perhaps he should keep this a secret from Arielle.
This was his way to protect her.
Vinson had decided to investigate more about Turlen before telling Arielle about this.
Meanwhile, Arielle had interrogated Cindy again but to no avail.
Matthias was concerned about Cindy's situation as he urged again, “Arielle, please let us go now. Cin told you everything she knows, and I can assure you that she has told you the truth!”
Arielle didn't react to that as she took in even the slightest change in Cindy's expression.
The Wilhelms had only picked up ancient Chanaean medicine in the past decade. Growing up with two of the top psychologists in the world, Arielle was skillful in reading one's micro-expressions.
She analyzed Cindy's micro-expressions with her knowledge in behavioral psychology, and she could finally conclude that Cindy was indeed not hiding anything from her.
“All right then.” Arielle nodded. “I'll keep true to
my words. Untie Matthias now.”
Matthias' eyes lit up upon hearing that, and he quickly untied himself with the help of the bodyguards around him.
Once he was freed, he immediately ran over to Cindy and hugged her.
“Cin, are you okay?”
There were traces of blood on her lips as she leaned against Matthias. She shook her head weakly. “I'm fine...”
“Let's go! She has agreed to let us go.”
Cindy was still in a daze, and she regained some energy upon hearing this.
