A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 516
Just when Henrick was about to follow after Cindy, Arielle tugged his sleeves and asked gently, “Dad. After Shandie’s funeral, will you be sending Aunt Cindy back?”
Henrick shook his head subconsciously. “Nope. It seems like she has almost recovered. Hence, there’s no need for her to remain in the hospital. After all, staying in a psychiatric hospital is nothing to be proud of.”
Henrick paused for a moment as he studied Arielle for a moment before continuing, “Sannie, can I ask you a
question? Do you hope that Cindy will not be back?”
Arielle smiled and replied, “How is that possible, Dad. She’s my aunt and is your current wife. If she can come back and reunite with you, I’ll definitely be happy. But…”
“But what?”
Arielle then shook her head, forced out a smile, and waved her hands. “It’s nothing much. It’s just some rumors. I think it’s better that you don’t hear them.”
However, Henrick got more curious about it and asked with a frown, “Tell me. There’s nothing that I can’t take
on.”
With that, Arielle bit her lips and said uncomfortably, “I think it’s better that I don’t tell you, Dad. The doctors and nurses were probably too bored that they start spreading rumors. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Upon hearing Arielle’s reply, Henrick did not further question. However, his brows tightened further.
He secretly made a memo of this in his head and walked toward Cindy casually.
After seeing Henrick leave, Vinson then walked toward Arielle and whispered, “What plans do you have now that Cindy is back?”
Arielle stared at the scene of Cindy and Henrick walking away side-by-side. She then turned toward Vinson and asked, “The psychiatric hospital belongs to Carter, right? Can you ask him to do me a favor?”
“Sure.”
Arielle then nodded and whispered a few words to Vinson’s ears.
Vinson could not help but laugh upon hearing her and remarked, “Your plan is indeed brilliant.”
Arielle merely shrugged and replied, “Well, I have no choice. I’ve pondered very long on how should I inform Henrick about Matthias and Cindy. In the end, I’ve concluded that it will not be appropriate if I was the one who told Henrick about it. Hence, it will be better for him to investigate it himself. After all, Henrick is so suspicious about everything. I only need to hint to him slightly, and he will investigate it himself.”
Just when Arielle finished her sentence, Cindy’s wail could be heard.
Cindy had been feeling much better after constantly being comforted by Matthias. However, she broke down the moment she saw Shandie in the coffin with her own eyes.
Arielle arched her brows at that scene. Though Cindy was wicked from inside out, the motherly love she had for Shandie was still overwhelming.
Right then, Arielle thought of her own mom, and her expression darkened.
Vinson, who was by Arielle’s side, noticed her change in expression and comforted, “You still have many people by your side. You have me, your step-parents, and Henry. Sannie, you’re not alone.”
Vinson seldom called Arielle “Sannie.” Hence, she was startled when she heard it.
“Thank you.” Arielle curled up her lips and thanked Vinson earnestly.
“Tsk!” Vinson shook her head. “You’ve forgotten again. What should you also say when you thank someone?”
Arielle lowered her head helplessly and replied, “You’re so childish, Vinson.
Vinson did not refute but nodded. “Well, I guess so.”
If I was mature enough, I probably will not need to do my research every day to replace out how to pursue Arielle.
Not long later, the car heading to the crematorium arrived.
Arielle followed behind those who were carrying the coffin.
The weather had been very hot recently. Besides, Shandie’s body had been in the backyard for over a week. Hence, it had started to smell.
Arielle was afraid that Vinson, who had been living a comfortable life, could not take on the smell. Hence, she whispered to him, “Vinson, you can head on to do your own stuff. I can handle the matters over here.”
“It’s all-” Even before Vinson could finish his sentence, he received a phone call from Carter.
