“That's why, girl,” Henrick continued, “You've to try to get me one ofthose when you're

better acquainted with him, got it?”

Arielle sneered quietly but nonetheless nodded dutifully. “Yes, Dad.”She then continued, “I'm going need more knowledge to perform myrole as ambassador,

Dad. As I haven't attended much school, could I use your study to dosome reading? I noticed

that you have quite a collection in there.”

What she figured was that there might be some clues in there whichmay reveal the cause

of her mother's death.

Henrick’s study was not a place which she was allowed to access freely,so over the past

week, she had not managed to replace an excuse to get in.

The man hesitated before he nodded. “Sure! But you are not to gothrough any documents or

the likes inside.”

“Yes! Thanks, Dad!” Arielle’s sweet smile drew the eyes of the peoplearound her, and only she herself was oblivious to how captivating shewas.

Those looks only served to improve upon Henrick’s good mood, as hethought to himself

what a gem he lucked out on.

Not only was she beautiful, but she was also skilled at latte art as well.He felt that

somebody up there must really like him, and thought how much of atravesty it would be if he

could not manage to put the Southalls on the map.

At this moment, Cindy hastened over. “Dear, I saw someone takeShannie away so could you

help replace out where she is? I'm afraid that she might be in trouble...”

It was only then that Henrick remembered that he still had anotherdaughter, and

proceeded to search for her alongside Cindy.

However, Shandie showed up when they were about to set off.

The aggrieved and irate woman ranted at Henrick, “Dad! Arielle had Mr.Nightshire’s men

lock me up inside a house! She's an evil woman! You've to set this rightby punishing her!”

Henrick’s face darkened as he barked hoarsely, “What are you raving onabout? Keep acting

out like that, and see whether I'll smack you!”

Shandie was stunned and reflexively raised a protective hand over herown tender face.

It took three days of icing for her to get the swelling down the last timeshe got hit, and she had not even had that broken tooth of herspatched up to date.

Shandie staggered back two paces. She could not understand why herfather was yelling at her when it was clearly Arielle who was at fault.Henrick continued to lecture her, “Don’t you know the principle ofseniority? You are not to

speak of your big sister again that way cause if you do, you're going toget it from me!”

“Mom...” Shandie was tearful and trembling all over. Cindy steadied herby her shoulders. “Quickly now. Congratulate your sister.”

Shandie managed to rein herself in but was unable to eke out a smile.Hence, she said stiffly, “Congratulations, Arielle...”

Arielle curled her lips and her eyes hinted at a smile. “If not for yougiving me a chance, I'm afraid I'll be unable to get this endorsementdeal with Soir Coffee. So thank you, Shandie. You truly are my dearestsister.”

"You..." Shandie tried to take in a deep drawl, but she was so angry thatshe could neither breathe in or out. She felt her sight blacken andwould have passed out again in public had

Cindy not caught her in time.

“Arielle!” Cindy could not help but glare at Arielle as she watchedShandie recover. “You've already cost Shandie the ambassadorial role,so would you stop provoking her already!”

Arielle replied innocuously, “I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how I might beprovoking her... Are

you alright, Shandie?”
