Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire -
Chapter 632
Chapter 632
Cindy tried her best to control her emotions. However, she could not stop her lips from curling and widening into a bright smile.
In contrast, Arielle did not respond. Neither did she ask for a reason.
All she did was quietly study the expression on Henrick's face, which was as cold as ice.
Seems like he has decided.
She was aware that everything she did now would be meaningless even if she actually knelt.
As such, there was no need for her to go to such an extent.
Perhaps leaving the Southall residence is a good choice too. At least I won't have to put on a pretense anymore. I can now put my attention on preparing schemes against Henrick.
As for Cindy, Arielle was not at all worried either. She had long forged good relationships with the people in the manor. Thus, it did not matter whether she was physically staying there or not. Arielle calmly nodded. "I got it, Dad. Mr. Southall, I mean."
Henrick's face froze when he heard Arielle's greeting for him.
He was shocked and uneasy about how calm she was, especially since she did not even try to plead.
Nevertheless, he did not regret making that decision. To him, his life was much more important than money. That was how he knew he should not let Arielle stay any longer.
Henrick sighed as a surge of complex emotions flooded him. "You can continue staying here for now. It's late; that's all for today."
Without raising any concerns, Arielle only looked deeply at Henrick with her clear eyes. After that, she trotted back to her room upstairs.
Watching Arielle disappear within her sight, Cindy secretly snickered. She then walked up to Henrick and wrapped her arms around that of his, and said, "It's late, Rick. We should take a rest now. Mom's surgery's tomorrow: I'll accompany you to the hospital."
"There's no need to." Henrick shook his head in disagreement. "Rest well at home and take care of the baby in your belly. I'll go alone."
Knowing how Henrick was concerned about the baby, Cindy did not insist on it. She gave a simple acknowledgment and followed him back to their room while suppressing the immense happiness within her. Back at the living room, one housekeeper could not contain her curiosity and whispered to Larissa, "Should we replace another backer since Ms. Arielle has already
gotten kicked out of this house? With the pregnancy of Mrs. Nightshire, she'll gain a stronger status in this house in time to come. We should replace a reliable backer if we want to continue working here. Or else we might get fired anytime with how unpredictable Mr. Southall
is."
Larissa was exasperated. "Hey, you guys are belittling Ms. Arielle, huh? Just wait; I'm sure she has a solution to this."
"What can she possibly do? She'll soon have to leave this place..."
"Even if you don't believe Ms. Arielle, you should have some trust in me. If all of you go to Mrs. Nightshire now, she'll know you guys aren't on her side before this. With the way she handles things, do you think she will trust all of you?"
Hearing that, several housekeepers fell into deep thoughts. They ultimately decided to continue standing with Arielle.
In truth, the housekeepers knew very well how merciless Cindy was. Moreover, they had received more from Arielle than the former.
Beyond that, there was a unique yet attractive aura exuding from Arielle. That alone allowed her to gain the trust of the others effortlessly.
Meanwhile, Arielle sat on the couch for a long while
after returning to her bedroom.
She was clear she had been abandoned by Henrick, despite not knowing the exact reason he did so. She could only attribute it to Malorie's fall.
Putting aside those thoughts, she then began thinking about the plans she had in mind.
Soon, the next day arrived.
Arielle took another half day off to settle matters regarding the household registry. Donovan did not say much and only reminded her to be punctual for classes in the afternoon.
In no time, she had finished settling the household registry. She stepped out of the registry office, no longer having any forms of tangible or intangible ties with the Southalls. That also meant she could be as ruthless as she wanted with the revenge.
