Chapter 130 A Beauty with Multiple Masks
With a light sneer, Arielle simply nodded and boarded the MPV. There was a change in the driver’s attitude. Henrick must have said something to him. Apparently, she would only receive a decent treatment when she played the role of a useful Sannie. However, all these no longer mean anything to her ever since she found out that Henrick was not her biological father. She looked up at the hotel from the car window and caught the curtains in her room moved, as if someone was standing there, observing her. Am I seeing things?
It’s impossible that Vinson will want to see me off. Retracting her gaze, Arielle sank into deep thoughts again, trying to figure out a way to resolve all these problems she faced. She was confident that the truth would be at her fingertips as soon as she had discovered about her real identity. Soon, they arrived at the Southall residence. Arielle did not get much sleep, except for the short time when she was getting a drip. In the manor, there were also two other people who stayed up all night.
Upon receiving the news that Arielle had arrived, Henrick immediately went out of his study room and dashed downstairs. Meanwhile, Cindy got the news too. “Is she back?” Cindy could not believe what she had heard. The housekeeper nodded. “Yes, Mr. Southall is on his way to welcome her.” “Welcome…” Cindy’s hands started to tremble. If Henrick is welcoming Arielle personally, that means she’s successfully bonded with Vinson. It’d be much harder for me to tackle her henceforth. Feeling like a cat on hot bricks, Cindy paced back and forth after sending the housekeeper away.
She called Matthias and told him all about Arielle. “I told you so, but you didn’t believe me. Considering Arielle’s alluring look, who wouldn’t like getting entangled with her?” Matthias uttered with much annoyance. Cindy shushed him and retorted, “This isn’t the time to criticize me. Hurry up and think of a solution.” Matthias replied, “What else is there to think about? Just go with the original plan. This might not be a bad thing, after all.”
“She’s with Vinson now. Is this not the worst thing that could have happened?” “Don’t fret and listen to me. According to our initial plan, she’d be given a bad name at best. However, things have gotten more interesting now. If our plan goes well, the person that she’s betraying is Vinson. You and I know that the consequences are severe when one offends the Nightshires.” Upon hearing that, Cindy became hopeful again.
“Yes, you’re right! When Vinson blows a fuse, he might take revenge on Henrick too. If the time is right, we can even seize the opportunity and defeat Henrick once and for all. Then, the Southall Group will be entirely ours.” “When that time comes, Cin, you’ll be mine and mine only…” Cindy simpered.
“Yup. You’ll have to arrange this quickly and get the drug that you’ve been looking for as soon as possible.” “All right.” She ended the phone call and headed downstairs happily to take a good look at Arielle. The happier she is now, the more dejected she will become later. The difference between heaven and hell is mind-blowing.
Henrick was over the moon when he saw Arielle. “Sannie, my darling daughter is back! Is everything okay?” It’s a redundant question. Anyone can tell that everything went smoothly last night, judging from the time Arielle comes home. She smiled bashfully. “I… guess so?”
