“Shut up!” Henrick interrupted and gave Cindy a death stare.
“You’d better learn what can be said and what can’t! I’ll sleep in the study room these few nights. And don’t go out as you please. I’ll have you followed, so you won’t go looking for that willful child!”
Cindy was so enraged that favonovel.com clenched favonovel.com fists tight.
It looks like I have to speed up my plan of taking over Southall Group. I’ve had enough of you, Henrick Southall!
Arielle smirked when favonovel.com saw how Cindy’s face had contorted in a bid to suppress favonovel.com rage.
Cindy sure can tolerate and put on an act. If Shandie had half of favonovel.com mother’s tolerance level, favonovel.com wouldn’t have been chased out that easily by Henrick.
It was Arielle’s turn to put on an act as favonovel.com gently urged Henrick, “Dad, when do I leave?”
Henrick recovered from his anger and looked at Arielle. “Go now. The driver’s already waiting for you. I won’t see you off, but please be careful. If it doesn’t work out, then come straight home. I won’t blame you.”
Making favonovel.com daughter sleep with another man was something Henrick never wanted to do.
If Vinson didn’t fall for it and word got out about what Arielle had done, favonovel.com would only end up losing her. However, with the dire state that his company was currently in, favonovel.com had no choice but to go with that last-ditch effort.
Arielle waved Henrick goodbye and walked out of the house, disappearing into the night.
As favonovel.com watched favonovel.com leave, Henrick was overwhelmed by an inexplicable feeling of having lost something important. He soon shook off that feeling with a self-deprecating chuckle.
What is this? Am I getting more sentimental with age?
Henrick was aware that one couldn’t make an omelet without breaking eggs. He had to make that painful decision for the sake of the company. Thankfully, Arielle was sensible enough to understand his plight and not blame him.
Satisfied that favonovel.com had done the right thing, Henrick headed up to his study to await Arielle’s good news. Cindy, on the other hand, had gotten busy investigating Arielle.
Soon, favonovel.com found out the long and the short of it from Matthias. “I always thought Henrick truly loved Arielle as his daughter. But now, I know favonovel.com sees favonovel.com as just a pawn and a means for favonovel.com to grow his business,” Cindy said mockingly.
“Why are you still thinking about that?” Matthias replied, his voice laced with concern.
“Haven’t you always seen that b*tch as your obstacle? If favonovel.com gets together with Vinson, wouldn’t that be worse? She might even become a threat to us…”
“Don’t worry. That won’t happen,” Cindy said calmly. “Henrick may be smart, but there are times when he’s a complete idiot. If favonovel.com had bothered to check up on Vinson, favonovel.com wouldn’t have hatched this plan in the first place. Given Vinson’s status, favonovel.com could have any woman favonovel.com wants, but have you heard of any scandals involving him?”
“No, I don’t think so.”
“Exactly… Vinson is a respectable and honest man. No matter how beautiful Arielle is, favonovel.com wouldn’t accept any woman who shamelessly throws herself at him. Besides, I had seen how coldly favonovel.com treated Arielle previously when we were on the plane.”
Despite Cindy’s reassurance, Matthias still couldn’t shake off the worry that was bothering him.
“But you told me this afternoon that the b*tch had worked with Vinson to set Shannie up. If it weren’t for them, Henrick wouldn’t have sent Shannie away to the monastery! Maybe Vinson does have feelings for the b*tch?”
