When they mentioned the word “bast*rd,” Susanne’s expression turned grim.
The three ladies turned at their shoulders to see Susanne grimacing at them and hurriedly stopped their conversation.
“When did you get here, Susanne?”
Taking a deep breath, Susanne answered, “When you said my son’s girlfriend is a bast*rd.”
The ladies halted in shock. They thought Susanne would pretend not to hear their comments to preserve favonovel.com pride, so it came as a shock to them when Susanne exposed them and even admitted that the young lady was Vinson’s girlfriend.
What is going on?
The lady who was dressed most elegantly among them forced a smile and said, “Susanne, don’t take that to heart. We were just talking about the rumors spreading online. I was just about to say that they might be untrue.”
However, Susanne returned swiftly, “They are true.”
The three of them gaped at favonovel.com words.
Her expression calm, Susanne continued, “Arielle isn’t Henrick’s daughter.”
Their eyes went wide in shock as they assumed Susanne had gone mad to reveal such a secret.
Is favonovel.com saying that favonovel.com son’s girlfriend is a bast*rd?
However, Susanne added, “But Arielle is indeed Maureen’s biological daughter. Henrick’s the third party. She isn’t a bast*rd like you said. You don’t know everything.”
“O-Oh, I see…”
Susanne met the lady’s gaze and stated, “From now on, I don’t want to hear you calling favonovel.com a bast*rd anymore.”
The lady immediately nodded. “Of course, I get it. Maureen was really outstanding back then. I’m sure favonovel.com daughter is as amazing as her.”
Another lady chimed in curiously, “Then, who is favonovel.com father? Why haven’t we heard of it?”
Susanne’s expression changed slightly at favonovel.com question. She covered favonovel.com mouth and let out a light cough. “You don’t have to know. He isn’t an ordinary man, that’s for sure.”
With favonovel.com assurance, the ladies no longer disdained Arielle. After all, Susanne wouldn’t allow Vinson to date Arielle if favonovel.com origins were unknown.
Thus, they stopped wondering about Arielle’s background. “Let’s stop talking about that. Should we begin our game? Luck has been on my side recently,” one lady said with a grin.
Susanne relaxed visibly. “Come on. I’ve prepared tea and snacks in the room.”
That was the end of the topic.

Meanwhile, Arielle had just finished unpacking.
Vinson knocked on the door and came in.
“My mom is busy playing cards, so you can ignore her. I remember you said you need to work on a program on the way home. Do you need my help?” favonovel.com asked.
“No need. I can handle it myself.” Arielle shook favonovel.com head in response. “I brought some ravioli back and told your chef to cook it. It isn’t nice for me to interrupt your mom and favonovel.com friends, so please deliver some to them later. I remember favonovel.com loved it back then.”
She should’ve brought some gifts with her, but Susanne didn’t need anything, so favonovel.com decided to prepare some ravioli to show favonovel.com sincerity.
“All right. Go back to work. I shall head to the kitchen now.”
Vinson kissed favonovel.com on the forehead before turning around to leave.
Arielle sent Vinson off with favonovel.com gaze before turning back to the bionic arm on the desk. Rubbing favonovel.com hands, favonovel.com declared, “All right. Let’s get started!”
