True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1721

Cindy cried out, but the towel gagging her mouth prevented her from shouting aloud. Try as she might, she could only let out muffled cries.

The huge mirror in front of her clearly reflected her entire face and the bright red bloodstain on it.

The cut was about three to four centimeters in length.

Celeste was so cruel. Cindy thought to herself.

Cindy looked at Celeste in fear.

Gary and Alex were also very surprised.

They had not expected Celeste to go ahead with it.

After all, it was easier said than done.

It took a lot of pluck to put those words into action.

But Celeste really took the knife to Cindy's face.

The sight of Celeste forcing herself to carry out her threat made Gary's heart ache even more. It was extremely distressing.

His beloved Celeste had experienced many hardships.

Life was so unfair to her that she was born without a mother.

To make matters worse, her father was that scumbag, Sinclair.

Even after Cindy took her in, things did not look any better. She grew up in Canada, lonely and alone, and she was still lonely even after returning to her home country.

Cindy provided her with nothing but basic needs. She neither gave her warmth of love.

Fate had been so unjust to her.

Her life had not been a bed of roses.

It must have taken her so much courage to reach where she was.

He looked at her with a tender and doting gaze, feeling sorry for everything she had gone through.

Celeste stood in a daze. It had taken her a lot of courage to cut Cindy's face with the knife.

She felt weak. It was as if her soul had left her body.

And she felt like she was about to collapse at any minute.

However, her mind told her that it was not over yet.

She said to Cindy, "This is what you owe my biological mother, Yannie. You harmed her. Even though you don't admit it, I can distinguish right from wrong. However, her death wasn't because of your fault only. It had more to do with her character and the fact that she lacked willpower.

"Therefore, I won't kill you. I'll only cut your face. You owe her that much."

Celeste said every word slowly and clearly.

When Cindy heard that, her eyes were full of disbelief.

Alex was also staggered. It seemed that Miss Celeste was sagacious indeed. Alex thought to himself.

Even after all that had happened, Celeste remained clear-headed.

She was still so young, so how could he ask more of her?

The behavior and attitude she had shown thus far were beyond her years.

A hint of gratification flashed across Alex's eyes.

Only someone who was decisive, judicious, and adaptable to critical situations in achieving their goal was worthy of praise.

Alex could tell that Gary had found a decent girlfriend.

Therefore, he could let go of his previous worries about Gary.

Suddenly, Celeste's arm moved.

She had slashed Cindy's face again with the knife.

"Ouch..." The pain made Cindy whimper in anguish.

For Cindy, the most insufferable part was not the pain, but the thought of the additional scar on her face.

"This is what you owe Uncle Jones," Celeste said. "You tried to seduce him all those years ago but to no avail. Despite your failure, you didn't restrain yourself. He didn't hold you accountable for what happened and even allowed you to flee and save your face. But yet, you weren't satisfied at all."

Cindy made a muffled sound as if she was trying to say something.

However, the gag in her mouth made her words incomprehensible.

In truth, no one wanted to hear what she had to say.

Alex and Gary were both a little astounded.

The second cut was to avenge Heinz.

And the first cut was to avenge Celeste's biological mother.

They thought that she had done well.

If it had not been her mother, she would not have been born.

Her mother gave her life.

Alex could not help admiring Celeste even more.

Then, there was another cut.

The knife swished through the air.

Another bloody cut appeared on the other side of Cindy's cheek.

Celeste spoke again. "This is for Uncle Jones and Aunt Smith. Four years ago, you still had your eyes on Uncle Jones and even tried to stir up trouble between them.

"You bought the villa next door to theirs. That was so disgraceful and detestable of you.

"Even after the change in my custody order, Uncle Jones and Aunt Smith were still very lenient with you. They didn't blacklist you in the entertainment industry, but you were neither grateful nor felt sorry for what you did. Instead, you persisted with your twisted obsession.

"You're utterly contemptible. I feel sorry for you. These two cuts are for what you did to Uncle Jones and Aunt Smith."

Cindy was utterly dumbfounded.

At first, she struggled to say something, but now, she was silent.

She did not dare to move, afraid that she would accidentally brush against the knife and inflict another scar on herself.

So, she sat unmovingly, and could only stare blankly at Celeste, the girl who looked so much like Yannie.

For a moment, her eyes were blank.

She seemed to have entered into a trance, detached and distracted.

No one knew what she was thinking.
