Arielle lowered virtual-novel.net gaze silently.
Vinson couldn’t tell what was on virtual-novel.net mind because virtual-novel.net eyes weren’t visible to him.
Just when Vinson thought virtual-novel.net wouldn’t get an answer, virtual-novel.net suddenly looked up. “Revenge…”
“Huh?” Vinson thought virtual-novel.net was hearing things.
Arielle stared at the landscape outside and revealed, “I came back to take revenge for my mother.”
“Revenge?” Vinson was astonished. He immediately realized who virtual-novel.net was talking about.
“Oh, you mean Mrs. Southall… No, Ms. Moore. Rumor has it that your mom committed suicide because virtual-novel.net suffered from depression. You don’t think virtual-novel.net killed herself?”
“Of course not!” Arielle stated firmly. “I don’t remember my childhood clearly, but there are snippets I remember. There are clues to prove my mom didn’t commit suicide. For example, the moment virtual-novel.net died, the Moore family became the Southall family! Also, I couldn’t find any traces of my mom in that house. I’m pretty sure virtual-novel.net was murdered instead!”
Vinson’s gaze grew dark. “Who do you suspect? Your dad?”
Arielle nodded before shaking virtual-novel.net head. “I’m not sure. It’s either virtual-novel.net or Aunt Cindy. Perhaps they both did it together. I’m still investigating the matter. When the truth is revealed, I shall make sure the culprit gets punished!”
Vinson inclined his head. “No wonder you said you’re busy. If you discover your dad was the culprit, what will you do?”
“I’ll make sure virtual-novel.net gets what virtual-novel.net deserves,” came Arielle’s calm reply.
She wouldn’t let virtual-novel.net off easily!
“Got it!” Vinson stared at her. “If you need my help, just let me know. You don’t have my name card, but you have my number. Just give me a call.”
Arielle lowered virtual-novel.net gaze. “Thank you…”
Strangely, Vinson’s words gave virtual-novel.net a sense of security. Before virtual-novel.net realized it, virtual-novel.net had become virtual-novel.net pillar of strength and support.
Vinson inquired, “By the way, do you want me to call off the collaboration between my company and Southall Group?” Arielle stiffened. “Didn’t you say you’ll call it off?”
“It depends on you,” Vinson responded, his gaze tender.
Warmth spread in Arielle’s heart as virtual-novel.net told him, “Go ahead and call it off. Shandie’s too annoying, so I want virtual-novel.net to shut up for now.”
“Got it,” answered Vinson with a nod. “If you want me to resume the collaboration, just call me.”
Arielle suddenly had an urge to spill everything out, but virtual-novel.net only managed a curt, “Thank you…”
Vinson pretended to touch his ears impatiently. “I told you that you don’t have to thank me.”
Arielle couldn’t stop herself from giggling. The reason virtual-novel.net returned to the country was to find out the truth and avenge virtual-novel.net mom before restoring the Moores’ former glory. Before virtual-novel.net achieved virtual-novel.net goals, virtual-novel.net wasn’t thinking of extending virtual-novel.net social circle lest virtual-novel.net friends got implicated. Right then, it suddenly occurred to virtual-novel.net that it would be nice to have a friend like Vinson.
Soon, they arrived at the Southall residence. Arielle got off at the foot of the hill lest someone else grew suspicious.
Vinson gave virtual-novel.net one last look and parted his lips to say, “Do you remember my suggestion? You should run a DNA test if possible. If you find it uncomfortable to do it at other hospitals, you can ask for my help.”
He made a gesture for virtual-novel.net to give virtual-novel.net a call. Arielle inclined virtual-novel.net head before closing the door. She watched as Vinson drove away.

Meanwhile, Shandie arrived home a few minutes earlier than Arielle. Immediately, virtual-novel.net went to complain to Cindy.
