Chapter 932
Hurt, Peter rushed to the girl and asked, “Who are you?!”
She stopped, still not facing or talking to him. Suppressing her anger, Barbara glared at Peter. What do you want now? After almost choking my sister to death, you’re going to hurt my friend too?!”
“Who is she?” Peter asked again as he stared at the girl. He wanted to take off her mask so badly. He had an urge to see her face.
cap and
Barbara shielded the girl behind her, intending to protect her from Peter. She had made up her mind. If this jerk dared to come closer, she would break his left arm right there and then!
“My friend has no obligation to entertain you, Peter Hall!” Barbara said as she clenched her teeth. Her hatred for this man was so intense that she could hardly hold it in.
Suddenly, the girl tapped on Barbara’s hand before taking off her cap. Peter’s irises shrunk and he took a few steps back.
“Didn’t you want to see how I look, mister?” the girl said.
A deep, long scar could be seen on the girl’s face, sliced across one of her eyes. It was clear that the eye was hurt to the point of deforming the eyelid. Yet, it was unclear if the eye was blind from the injury.
“Do you want a clearer view?”
Upon saying that, the girl took off her mask, showing her face to everyone in the room. She even flicked her hair.
The maid was so shocked that she had to cover her mouth to stop herself from screaming. Barbara’s friend had such an ugly face!
Peter widened his eyes as though he was trying to find something from the girl’s face. Yet, there was nothing for him to uncover.
The girl’s nose and mouth were deformed from an injury. There was a horrible burn from the chin to neck, making her already disfigured face even harder to look at.
“Did I scare you, mister?” The girl smiled, yet it made her face look even uglier.
“I met with some misfortune a while back. Someone sliced my face with a blade and poured acid.”
Peter’s eyes began welling with tears as he stared at her. Seeing this, the girl shoved Barbara’s hand away and walked to him.
“Why did you chase after me, mister? What do you want to do to me?”
Still staring at her, Peter was speechless. Her voice sounded hoarse and strained as she maintained her scary smile. “I have a habit of hiding my face when I go outdoors. Some people think I’m a beautiful babe so they flirt with me. When I showed them my face, they were so frightened that they fled right away!”

Peter continued staring at her silently with his red, teary eyes.
“I suppose you’ve seen enough.” She flicked her hair to the back, revealing even more burned skin below the neck.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Unable to let this go on, Barbara hugged the girl. “Please stop. This is all temporary. We will definitely find a way to recover your looks.”
Peter gulped and asked, “Is there anything I could help you with?”
“Hahaha!” The girl burst into laughter. Her voice was so hoarse that it was hard on the ears. It was clear that the acid also damaged her vocal cords aside from burning her skin.
Yet, this man asked if he could help her? What a joke.
“Forget I said anything.” Peter had not experienced such humiliation in a long time. This time, he was not just humiliated. He felt helpless too. He immediately left.
Still hugging the girl, Barbara said, “You must be tired from the long journey. I’ll show you to a room where you can get some rest.”
“Sure.” The girl put her mask back on while Barbara helped her put the black cap before combing her hair back to the front to veil her neck.

“Barbara!” Esme stumbled out of the bathroom and said anxiously, “Peter has gone mad! He almost killed me just now!”
Glaring at the wench who wore her sister’s face, Barbara said coldly, “Then you should thank me for coming back home just in time to save you!”

Esme stared at Barbara in a daze, not understanding what she did to upset her.
The girl in black tapped on Barbara’s hand, silently signaling her to not lose her cool.
