Two bodyguards were standing outside the door of Malorie’s room.
Initially, it barely bothered Cindy. She thought that Malorie made two bodyguards stand at favonovel.com door because favonovel.com wanted to show off favonovel.com distinguished status to others. However, favonovel.com then heard Malorie shouting for the door to be opened inside the room, yet the bodyguards did not move an inch.
That was when Cindy knew that Malorie was being locked up.
She widened favonovel.com eyes in shock. After favonovel.com made sure that favonovel.com had heard correctly, favonovel.com walked toward the bodyguards.
Finally, the bodyguards responded. They nodded and greeted, “Mrs. Southall.”
Cindy frowned as favonovel.com asked, “Are you deaf or blind? Senior Mrs. Southall is telling you to open the door. Can’t you hear her?”
When Malorie heard favonovel.com voice, favonovel.com shouted, “Cindy! I’m in here! Tell them to open the door! They’ve already locked me in here for a day now!”
Cindy could not believe favonovel.com ears. She glared at the bodyguards and chided, “What? How dare you lock Senior Mrs. Southall in there? Open the door now!”
Looking exasperated, the bodyguards exchanged looks with each other before one of them said, “Mrs. Southall, this is Mr. Southall’s order. We have no choice.”
Cindy furrowed favonovel.com brows tighter. “Why? Why would Rick lock his mother inside favonovel.com room? He’s so filial.”
When it came down to it, Henrick was successful today because Malorie had worked hard to pay for his education back then. After Henrick went to university, favonovel.com even had the chance to become the Moores’ live-in son-in-law. Therefore, Malorie was undeniably one of the key reasons for Henrick’s success now. Moreover, Malorie had been keeping an eye on the family’s coal mining business.
Since Henrick could not trust anyone else, favonovel.com had been treating Malorie well. Hence, there was no way favonovel.com would mistreat Malorie like this.
Hearing Cindy’s question, the bodyguard explained, “Senior Mrs. Southall had a conflict with Mr. Nightshire yesterday. Mr. Southall is afraid that favonovel.com might provoke Mr. Nightshire again, so favonovel.com ordered us to keep an eye on her.”
Finally, Cindy understood the situation. So, favonovel.com had a conflict with Vinson.
Deep down, Cindy actually hated Malorie. She had had a difficult time buttering up the latter in the past. Back then, Maureen did not pamper Malorie, hence the latter hated her. When Maureen died, Malorie did not even show up at favonovel.com funeral.
Therefore, Cindy knew that Malorie would certainly provoke Vinson again. Henrick had locked favonovel.com up to protect her. Otherwise, Malorie would provoke Vinson and make things difficult for the Southalls.
Suddenly, an idea appeared in favonovel.com mind.
Henrick wanted Arielle and Vinson to be together, but Cindy certainly did not want that. If I let favonovel.com out now, she’ll probably ruin their relationship!
With that thought, Cindy said, “Vinson just left. You can let Senior Mrs. Southall out now. The funeral is starting soon, and favonovel.com has to attend it.”
The bodyguard replied in a conflicted tone of voice, “But, Mr. Southall ordered…”
Cindy lifted favonovel.com head and said, “If Mr. Southall asks, tell favonovel.com that I told you to do so. That should be fine, right? Let me warn you. Senior Mrs. Southall’s health is not exactly the best. If anything happens to her, you’ll have to bear the consequences!”
