Chapter 3

Vinson pressed his voice and said, “Are you sure that's your wish? I'llgive you another

chance.”

Arielle knitted her brows and looked at him. “You want to grant meanother wish? Do you

think you're the magical Genie?”

Everyone, including Shandie and Cindy, looked at Vinson and Arielle indisbelief. What's going on? Does this beggar know Vinson?

Vinson gazed into her eyes. When he was about to respond to herquestion, Henrick interrupted. “Nice to see you, Mr. Nightshire! Whydidn’t you tell me you're coming?”

All the guests’ jaws dropped when Henrick greeted Vinson. Cindyinstantly closed her eyes as she dared not imagined what wouldhappen next.

What on earth is happening?

Henrick finally noticed something was amiss and started lookingaround. A sudden frown warped his face the moment he saw Arielle.Henrick turned to Shandie and said, “Why did you invite a beggar toour birthday party? Get her out of here!”

Shandie froze for a moment even though deep in her heart she waspleased with his

reaction. “Dad, she’s...”

“Dad!” Arielle interrupted. “Don’t you remember me? I'm Sannie!”Sannie was Arielle’s nickname. “San...” Henrick raised his brows andwidened his eyes in shock. “You're Arielle?” “Yes, Dad. I'm Arielle,” shewalked up to him.

Arielle did not remember anything that had happened a decade ago,but she remembered that familiar face.

Upon hearing that, Henrick staggered.

Fear was written all over his face as he was afraid that his secret wouldbe exposed.

Arielle knew what was going through his mind. In a steady voice, shecontinued, “We have

not met for years. I miss you so much!”

Henrick was at a loss for words. He had no choice but to give her a paton the shoulder.

“Welcome back, honey, but... what happened to you and Mr.Nightshire? Why do the both of you

look so messy?”

All the guests then started paying attention to Vinson's clothes. Theywere so drawn to the

man himself that they did not notice how wet his clothes were.Shandie cast a puzzled look at Arielle and Vinson.

Is there something going on between these two?

But she somehow dismissed her suspicion. Vinson falling in love withthis country bumpkin? No way! Unless he’s blind!

Upon seeing how awkward the atmosphere had become, Cindystepped in and said, “I think

it was Mr. Nightshire who brought Arielle home.”

“Really?” Henrick seemed to be a little less disgusted by Arielle afterhearing that.

Since she was still young and doesn’t remember a thing from herchildhood, I guess she

doesn't exactly know what happened.

Imagine the benefits we can reap if we could use her to get closer tothe Nightshires.

Henrick instantly plastered a smile to his face and looked at Vinson. “Soyou're Arielle’s

friend? Thanks for bringing her back to us. If you don’t mind, would youlike to stay back, clean

up a little, and dine with us?”

Cindy added, "Oh, yes. We have extra pairs of clothes for our guests.”Vinson initially wanted to turn down their offer, but he could not standwearing that

sea—soaked clothes anymore.

Since Vinson did not reject his officer, Henrick extended his hand andshowed him the

direction to the guest room. He then whispered in Cindy's ear, “CleanArielle up too.”

Cindy and Henrick had been married for nearly a decade, so sheunderstood what he

wanted her to do.

It was clear that Henrick wanted to use Arielle to get in the Nightshiresgood books.

Damn it, why is luck on Arielle’s and not my daughter's side?

Maureen had been oppressing Cindy when she was still alive. I'll neverallow her daughter

to step all over mine!

Cindy nodded and played along. She then pulled Shandie aside andsaid, “Bring her to the bathroom. She's your older sister now, so be niceto her.”

Shandie was able to read between the lines. She turned around and puton a smile. “Hey, Arielle. Let's go to the bathroom, shall we?”

Arielle did not believe that the mother-daughter duo would accept herinto the family.

Yet, she hid her suspicion and responded with a grin. "Okay!"

They held hands and walked into the mansion.

Meanwhile, other guests continued to exchange whispers as they triedto figure out what

Vinson was doing here.

No matter what the reason was, it was clear that from now on, theywould have to show

more respect to the Southalls.

At the guest room upstairs, Shandie said, “You can stay heretemporarily while we tidy up

your room, and you can also replace all the toiletries here. Ill bring you adress.”

“All right. Thank you,” Arielle responded. “Oh, before I forget,” Shandieturned around and asked, “Do you know how to use the water

heater? We've fixed the temperature, so you don't have to adjust itanymore,” she reminded

kindly but somehow forgot to hide the disdain in her eyes.

Arielle seemingly did not notice her expression. She responded with agentle smile. “Thanks.”

Does she really think I don’t know how to use the water heater?“Great. I'll bring your dress over.” Sandie smiled and walked out of theroom. After closing

the door, the smile on her face disappeared almost instantly.

She took out a handkerchief and cleaned her hands thoroughly beforethrowing it on the

floor.

Her hand stinks, and her body stinks. Everything about her stinks!Vinson must have brought her here by accident. I'm sure he wouldn'tlike a filthy woman

like Arielle!

Meanwhile, Arielle was taking her own sweet time enjoying a nice warmbath in the

bathroom.

Even she felt disgusted by how she looked and smelled after spendinga week on the island.

As the warm water streamed down from her head to toes, she wiped offall the dirt on her

face, revealing her fair complexion.

Her delicate face with fine features made her look like a dainty littlefairy.

About ten minutes later, Shandie knocked on the door. “Arielle, can youplease open the door? I want to pass you the dress. I've also placed apair of heels near the door. You can wear

them later.”

“All right.” Arielle opened the door slightly to retrieve the dress. Onceagain, she did not see the disgust and mockery on Shandie’s face. Thedress Shandie gave to Arielle was a couture dress by Gucci. It was morecostly than the

dress she was wearing now.

Though it took her some effort to get her hands on the dress, she couldnot wear it as it had a specific cut.

Its wearer must be slim and possess a supermodel-like physique. At thesame time, the

person needed to have a busty, curvaceous figure to be able to fit inthe dress. Without an

hourglass figure, any ordinary woman would look plump in it.

Since Shandie had broad shoulders but no collarbones, the dress wouldlook unflattering on

her. This was why she did not wear it for tonight's party.

Once that hideous woman comes out with that dress, I'm sure all theguests would laugh at

her!
