Chapter 1266 Selection Of The Head Of The Family
Arielle brought Sasha along to the Mill residence. At first, Vinson wanted to personally send them there but was rejected by Arielle. She refused to be treated like a princess. With that, Vinson watched her leave before heading to his company.
When he was on his way to work, he thought about that one time he stood up for Arielle at the shooting set. It suddenly dawned on him that the incident might impact Arielle negatively. Therefore, he requested his subordinate to silence all viral comments on the internet, leaving no room for the netizens to suspect that he was behind all these.
The big picture that the netizens had gathered was that it was Annabelle who had offended Arielle and brought all the disaster upon herself.
Arielle was ten minutes late when she arrived at the Mill residence. When the butler ushered her into the house, everyone stared at her in disbelief.
All those who were competing for the head of the house position were either old enough to be Arielle’s father or grandfather.
Scanning across the hall, one could not spot any youngster. The handful of young people were all from families of doctors and medical experts. Each one of them had watched and learned from their elders since young. They all possessed impeccable knowledge and skills in medicine. They were very surprised to see Arielle, wondering if she was the all-rounder goddess that everyone talked about on the Internet. People knew her by her renowned titles as the chairwoman of Sann Group and the owner of Maureen’s Kitchen. Even those who only nerded out on medicine had heard about her.
What brings her here? Is she joining in the selection to become the head of the Mills? Does she actually know medicine?
Although everyone present had a million questions they were dying to ask, they kept their cool and remained silent.
Queenie and Donovan almost jumped out of their skins when they saw Arielle. Queenie was exceptionally jealous of her archenemy whom she did not expect to see at her own home. She knew that Donovan liked Arielle. She side-eyed him and saw that there was a twinkle in his eyes. Instantly, she became livid.
“Why are you here? Do you know where is this place? Who allowed you to come in?” Queenie turned green in envy as she clasped her hands on the handles of the wheelchair.
Arielle looked in the direction of the angry voice and saw Queenie staring daggers at her. If her glares were a weapon, I would have died a million times.
“The head of the Mill family invited me here. So, I can come and go as I like. Why? Does my presence make you feel uncomfortable, Ms. Queenie?”
Speaking confidently, Arielle took her seat. She tried not to pick on Queenie so much, for the sake of the Mills.
“We’re selecting the head of the Mills. Aren’t you ashamed to showcase the little that you know about medicine? It’s better for you to go operate a restaurant or be that little superstar in your own right. You don’t belong here,” Queenie bellowed while suppressing her murderous intent.
Donovan was disgusted at Queenie’s odious character despite not showing any expression on his face. When Queenie was not looking, he stole glances at Arielle, only to realize that she had become even more alluring than before. Donovan could not take his eyes off of her at all.
However, Arielle was revolted by the look in his eyes, and she averted his gaze almost instantly. Queenie caught her reflex action and knew what was going on. Swiftly, she looked up and saw Donovan keeping his gaze fixated on Arielle. The dreamy look on his face angered her to the maximum.
