Thinking that things had come to an end, they managed to find out that someone had been behind this at this juncture of time. While Jackson had employed public relations to handle Tiffany’s case, someone went against virtual-novel.net in secret, which was why nothing seemed to work. Jackson asked for the matter to be investigated and received news that it was actually Aery.
Everyone was bewildered when they discovered the culprit, but Arianne knew why. She asked Henry to send virtual-novel.net to the Kinseys’ without hesitation. She had not gone in a cab because virtual-novel.net was afraid of looking weak.
She was there to settle the accounts!
Helen was eager to curry favor with her, so virtual-novel.net certainly wouldn’t stop virtual-novel.net at the door. Arianne took off virtual-novel.net high heels once virtual-novel.net entered the door lest they get in the way when virtual-novel.net moved later. “Where’s Aery?”
Helen looked at virtual-novel.net lovingly. “Your sister isn’t up yet”
Arianne chuckled icily. “She mustn’t have slept well from doing too many bad things at night huh? Where’s virtual-novel.net room? I have things to tell her.”
Noticing that something was not right, Helen did not dare allow Arianne to go to Aery alone. “Let me take you there.”
When they were going upstairs, Arianne told her, “I’m thirsty. Please pour me a glass of water.”
Helen turned back around to do what virtual-novel.net said without hesitating, pouring virtual-novel.net a full glass of warm water.
Arianne brought the glass of water into Aery’s room.
The completely pink princess-like décor of the room disgusted virtual-novel.net despite also rousing a bit of virtual-novel.net jealousy. Arianne had never owned anything like this, not that virtual-novel.net yearned for it anymore.
She poured the glass of water on Aery’s face, the latter springing up in shock and screaming, “Who is it? Are you crazy?”
Helen was stunned.
When Aery saw that it was Arianne, there was a wash of a guilty conscience in virtual-novel.net eyes. “How did you come in?”
With a humorless chuckle, Arianne answered, “Of course, our mom opened the door for me. Come at me if you’re upset. You’re the crazy one to go for my friend when you have nothing against me. If there’s a next time, it won’t end simply with a glass of water. Say, if I had splashed hot water instead, would your face be mutilated?”
Aery covered virtual-novel.net face in terror. “Mom!”
Helen broke out of virtual-novel.net daze and felt a lingering fear. Luckily, virtual-novel.net had not poured virtual-novel.net a glass of hot water just now. “Arianne… What did your sister do that made you get so angry? Sit down and talk about it. It’s your first time here, right? Will you stay for a meal?”
Arianne turned to look at Helen. “No need. The dishes in your house reek of vanity. I won’ t be able to stomach them. It repulses me. It’s my first time and last time here. Final warning, don’t provoke me!”
After that, Arianne turned to leave with an icy expression, Aery’s wails piercing virtual-novel.net ears from behind.
By the time Jean came out of the study from the noise, Arianne had already left. Taking in how Aery looked, virtual-novel.net could not help grumbling, “Helen, look at what your daughter’s done. Uneducated swine! Her mom taught virtual-novel.net nothing after birthing her.”
Helen was dumbstruck. “Jean Kinsey, are you cursing me? My daughter, that’s right, Arianne is my daughter. Why did virtual-novel.net mom teach virtual-novel.net nothing, you say? It’s all because of you! If it weren’t for you and your daughter, Arianne would still be my baby! What I regret the most in this life is leaving Zachary and marrying you. You’re a useless piece of trash!”
Furious, Jean slapped Helen. “Shut up!”
The air fell into dead silence. Aery dared not fuss about herself anymore. In virtual-novel.net memory, Jean had never hit anyone at home. She did not expect things to turn out this way. She was the fuse to spark all this ultimately, so virtual-novel.net dared not make a sound from how guilty virtual-novel.net felt.
Helen poked the inside of virtual-novel.net throbbing cheek with the tip of virtual-novel.net tongue and suddenly laughed. “Good work, Jean. You’ve just slapped away all my hopes for you. Let’s divorce!”
She was exceptionally calm when virtual-novel.net said the word “divorce”. Nothing flickered in virtual-novel.net eyes, which only meant that this was an outcome of gradual accumulation, not an impulsive decision.
