Chapter 131


    Henrick was finally relieved after receiving the much needed reassurance from Arielle. He queried


    further, “Did Mr. Nightshire say anything else?” Right when Arielle was about to answer, Henrick’s


    phone rang. He took a nce at it and quickly picked up the call. “Hello, Mr. Chance? Continuing the


    coboration? Oh, how wonderful, thank you very much! Yes, even if we have any disagreement in the


    future, we shouldmunicate more effectively.


    Sure, you go ahead.” After hanging up, Henrick stared at Arielle approvingly. “That’s my daughter,


    smart and capable! The other party has confirmed their willingness to coborate with us.” Arielle


    shed a faint smile. Am I not smart and capable? I have to promise to make a ravioli feast for Vinson,


    in exchange for that business opportunity. Right when she wanted to respond to him, Cindy came out,


    all smiles. “I’ve heard… Shannie, thanks for saving my family.”


    Arielle scrutinized Cindy’s expression and realized that she was truly d. It did not look like she was


    faking it. Seems like Cindy’s plot is going well so far. She’s probably waiting to see how I’ll fall from the


    throne and into a quagmire. Arielle pretended not to suspect anything and smiled sheepishly. The next


    moment, Cindy held Arielle’s hand. “I’ve asked the kitchen to make some herbal soup for you. My heart


    aches seeing you so tired.


    Go and drink it while it’s hot. Besides nourishing your body, it has other advantages too.” I guess the


    other benefit of the soup is to boost fertility, especially at this so-called critical moment. Arielle studied


    Cindy’s every gesture. She must be scheming something huge this time. Henrick was pleased to see


    how polite and courteous Cindy was. Maybe I shouldn’t sleep in the study room and neglected Cindy.


    No matter how misbehaved Shandie is, it’s got nothing to do with Cindy.


    I shouldn’t have med it on her. “Go ahead and finish your soup. Don’t waste Cindy’s effort. We’ll


    catch up thereafter,” Henrick advised. As he spoke, he held Cindy’s hand like a loving couple. If it was? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    in the past, Arielle would have turned sour seeing such a scene. That was because she felt so sorry for


    her mother. Conversely, there was no negative emotions felt by her now. She could even smile sweetly


    at them.


    “Sure, I’ll drink it now.” This couple deserves to be with each other, or they will harm more people. Then


    again, Cindy might not want to be locked down with just one man… With her own thoughts ying in


    her mind, Arielle strode toward the kitchen and drank the herbal soup. Cindy was not a fool to do


    something nasty to the soup which others knew was served by her. However, to be safe, Arielle


    smelled the soup first.


    The herbs would be nutritious enough to supplement her body’s needs after receiving acupuncture


    treatments. When she was done, Henrick asked to see her. He requested for all the housekeepers to


    leave the room, keeping only Cindy by his side. Chuckling, he asked, “Last night… did Mr. Nightshire


    promise you anything?” Arielle nodded. “He did mention that Nightshire Group won’t terminate our


    projects.”


    Henrick was rather frustrated. “No, I’m not asking about this. Besides this… is there anything else? Did


    he promise to marry you?” A mocking look flitted past Arielle’s eyes. Given an inch, he’s trying to take a


    mile.
