Chapter 176 He Has Fallen For Arielle
I found out that Henrick and Cindy have been poaching our employees. The relationship between the both of them is also questionable. But most importantly, I discovered that Henrick has been in contact with his family. For Sannie’s sake, I can’t keep them around anymore!
That was the last entry in the diary.
After checking the timeline, Arielle estimated that the entry was written three days before her mom passed away.
Perhaps, Henrick and Cindy killed mom because she wanted to chase them away after finding out about their evil plot!
But, what is “his family” about?
Is she referring to my biological father’s family? If that’s the case, how did Henrick manage to come into contact with that family that was so out of reach that even mom wasn’t worthy of?
As Arielle was lost in her thoughts, her phone chimed.
The woman glanced at her phone and saw that it was a message from Vinson.
He texted: Are you asleep? The live stream is tomorrow. Are you nervous?
After Arielle returned home, her mind was entirely focused on her mom’s diary and she did not think about anything else. It was only when she saw Vinson’s message that she remembered she had a live stream the next day.
She took a look at the time and realized that it was already past 11 p.m., which meant that she should be going to bed.
Arielle could not stop thinking about the “him” who was mentioned multiple times in her mom’s diary. There was so much that she needed to find out but she knew that she had to be patient.
Henrick might hold the key to the answer.
Arielle closed the diary and rubbed her eyes. After locking the diary away, she quickly washed up and headed to bed.
Before she slept, she texted a reply to Vinson: I’m not nervous. Gonna sleep now.
After seeing Arielle’s short reply, Vinson, who was resting in his company’s lounge, tossed and turned restlessly, unable to fall asleep.
He had thought so hard to come up with a topic to chat with Arielle about, but she had simply ended the conversation just like that.
That made him feel exasperated and frustrated at the same time.
Suddenly, Carter’s words came to his mind and he felt a flicker of irritation.
Have I really fallen for Arielle?
Ha! How is that even possible!
Vinson got up and took a sleeping pill. Only then did he manage to fall asleep.
The purpose of the live stream was to promote Soir Coffee.
The audience’s response to the live stream was extremely favorable and the viewership was high.
Arielle stretched her body after the live stream ended.
Just then, an attractive woman whom Arielle had not met before walked in holding two bags of desserts.
“Excuse me.” The woman approached Arielle and asked, “May I know where Vinson is?”
Arielle was about to remove her cap and turned around when she heard the woman’s voice.
Dressed in branded clothes, the woman looked just like an exquisite doll with a pair of big and bright eyes. Even the way she spoke was soft and gentle.
However, for some reason, Arielle did not tell her where Vinson was right away but asked, “Why are you looking for him?”
Wendy had approached a random coffee shop employee to ask for Vinson’s whereabouts and was shocked to see how stunningly beautiful Arielle was when she turned around.
Wendy had met her fair share of beautiful women when she was in Horington. However, it was the first time she had come across someone with Arielle’s elegance.
Wendy froze for a second and felt enmity towards Arielle.
It was natural for an attractive woman to feel that way towards another woman who was better looking than her.
After pausing for a second, Wendy raised the bags in her hands and replied, “Ms. Stone told me to deliver some desserts to Vinson.”
After she finished speaking, she added intentionally, “Oh, Ms. Stone is Vinson’s mom. Can you please let me know where Vinson is?”
