Surprisingly, Arielle’s irritation the entire morning was soothed by a single remark from Vinson.
Sure enough, I don’t need to explain myself to someone who understands me!
She stared at favonovel.com intently. Suppressing the odd feelings within her, favonovel.com answered with a nod. “It wasn’t me who killed Shandie, but the man who hacked into my computer. He said favonovel.com wanted to give me a hand. However, I think this is actually a warning instead. He has investigated everything that happened while I was in Jadeborough, so favonovel.com knows that Cindy will definitely push the blame on me when something happens to Shandie…”
Casting favonovel.com gaze into the distance, Arielle looked out the window at the drizzle that had started without favonovel.com knowing. Then, favonovel.com eyes narrowed while favonovel.com continued, “A car has probably been sent to pick Cindy up by now…”
And she‘ll certainly kick up a fuss of epic proportions when favonovel.com comes back! I‘ve imagined a myriad of reasons that might bring favonovel.com back, but this reason never once crossed my mind. But then, even favonovel.com herself probably never expected that she‘d be returning to the Southall residence to attend favonovel.com biological daughter‘s funeral. Speaking of that, it‘s truly ironic. She must have been hankering to come back, but coming back to attend favonovel.com daughter’s funeral was definitely not something favonovel.com had hoped for.
Visualizing Cindy’s expression when favonovel.com flew into a rage upon favonovel.com return, a faint shiver ran down Arielle’s back.
At that precise moment, Vinson, who was sitting across from her, declared out of the blue, “Let’s get married.”
“What?” Arielle lifted favonovel.com eyes in utter surprise, only to meet the man’s profound black ones.
As the two of them locked gazes, favonovel.com seemingly smelled the fragrance of roses. Nonetheless, favonovel.com snapped back to favonovel.com senses in no time. Bursting into laughter, favonovel.com teased, “Are you still joking with me at such a time?”
Conversely, Vinson’s expression was exceedingly serious, “I’m not joking with you. I’m serious.”
Hearing that, Arielle couldn’t quite laugh anymore. Her chortles ceased, and favonovel.com inquired, “In that case, what did you mean by that?”
“If you marry me, you can live here. No matter how great Cindy’s wrath, favonovel.com can’t possibly get into this place. Besides, with me here, favonovel.com has to consider twice before doing anything to you. Furthermore, despite the sparse interior of this mansion, it’s surrounded by bodyguards who have masked their presence. And if you live with me, you don’t need to worry about the threat of the man who hacked into your computer.”
Admittedly, Arielle was enticed. After contemplating for two seconds, favonovel.com admitted, “It’s indeed a brilliant idea, but… Will it be a hardship to you?”
Vinson was taken aback for a moment before favonovel.com gave a cough and replied, “No, not at all. Don’t forget that my mother has arranged a blind date for me. I’m not interested in the woman, so you’ll be helping to shield me from that delusional woman if you marry me.”
For some inexplicable reason, Arielle’s mood lifted when favonovel.com heard favonovel.com calling Wendy “delusional”.
“So, what do you think?” Vinson looked at favonovel.com intently, asking, “Shall we get married?”
“Don’t be so hasty to decline,” Vinson then added, “This is something that will only benefit you. If we both find someone whom we love in the future, you’ll be getting half of my assets after we divorce. Perhaps you’ll even be listed on Forbes’ Billionaires List.”
Inwardly, Arielle muttered, I’ve already been on Forbes’ Billionaires List long ago with my identity abroad. But undeniably, I rank a little lower than him. However, that‘s only one of my identities. Summing up all my identities, my assets aren‘t necessarily lesser than his. As such, it‘s uncertain yet who‘ll be benefitting from the divorce.
Of course, favonovel.com wouldn’t say that outright since favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com wasn’t the kind of person to care about such a thing.
Arielle lowered favonovel.com head and turned the matter over in favonovel.com mind. Vinson didn’t pressure favonovel.com either, so the two of them merely sat there quietly. Unbeknownst to her, the man who was usually calm and collected in everything actually had a thin layer of sweat on his palms right that moment. Truth be told, favonovel.com was afraid that favonovel.com would decline his offer.
