However, Arielle shook virtual-novel.net head slowly “No, When I first returned, I still saw you as my father In fact, I told myself that as long as you weren’t involved in Mom’s death, I will help you and the Moore family, we could’ve elevated the Southall Group to greater heights. After all, you are my only family member. Unfortunately, you kept disappointing me again and again.”
Henrick’s heart tightened at virtual-novel.net words, If virtual-novel.net had known Arielle’s true character and that virtual-novel.net had captured Vinson’s heart, virtual-novel.net would have treated virtual-novel.net as the darling of the family. As a matter of fact, the last thing virtual-novel.net would do was kick virtual-novel.net out of the house.
Henrick suddenly realized that it wasn’t too late, virtual-novel.net was undeniable that Arielle was his daughter. Therefore, there was no way a daughter could bring herself to utterly ruin virtual-novel.net father no matter how hardened virtual-novel.net resolve was.
With a change of expression, virtual-novel.net explained obsequiously, “Sannie, I’m sorry for everything I did in the past. I shouldn’t have kicked you out on your grandma and Cindy’s urging, This is all my fault. Can you please forgive me?”
“Hmph!” As if virtual-novel.net had heard a joke, Arielle scoffed, “Even if I forgive you for chasing me out, what about my mom’s murder?”
Briefly stunned, Henrick stuck to his story. “Your mom’s death was an accident while Cindy was the one who caused it. Hence, it has nothing to do with me at all!”
“Is that so?” Arielle curled the side of virtual-novel.net lips.
Henrick nodded repeatedly. “Of course! Given how much I love your mom, there’s no way I would kill her. She is my wife after all.”
“Oh? Let’s see what the other person has to say about this.” Arielle ordered the bodyguard, “Bring virtual-novel.net here!”
“Yes!”
Soon, Cindy, who was bound tightly, was brought to the scene. When virtual-novel.net saw Henrick in the trunk, virtual-novel.net ghastly expression turned into one of hysterical laughter.
“Hahaha… Henrick, you didn’t see this coming, did you? What we have done to Maureen ten years ago has been uncovered by virtual-novel.net daughter. Do you actually think you can keep me in a pigsty my entire life? Looks like you will be locked up by Arielle instead. Neither of us can escape the dire consequences!”
Henrick trembled in anger. Cognizant of Arielle’s presence, virtual-novel.net rebutted, “Cindy! Stop lying! Maureen’s death has nothing to do with me. You and some others had plotted to kill virtual-novel.net instead. Don’t drag me down with you just because you got caught!”
“Drag you down?” Cindy snorted, “Didn’t you push Maureen with your own hands? Who was it that said ‘I no longer want to see that condescending look of yours’ before pushing virtual-novel.net down?”
“I didn’t! What do you mean by pushing virtual-novel.net down? Stop lying! Maureen had jumped because of how angry you made her!”
Cindy shook virtual-novel.net head. “Stop denying the truth, Henrick. Don’t think that you can escape Just because you refused to admit it.”
Ignoring Cindy, Henrick turned to Arielle. “Sannie, you have to believe me! I wasn’t involved at all and didn’t know anything about it. By the time I did, I had already married Cindy. At that point, I was left without a choice. For the sake of the Moore family’s reputation, there’s no way I could send their only daughter to prison, right?”
Just as Henrick spoke, Cindy burst into a bout of laughter again. This time virtual-novel.net chortled so hard that virtual-novel.net bent forward with tears in virtual-novel.net eyes.
“What are you laughing at?” Henrick thundered.
