Chapter 137
Confused, Arielle asked, “Dad, didn’t you say you want to keep mepany? Aren’t youing in?”
Henrick coughed. “Your team is very professional, it’s best I don’t disturb your flow. I’ll go and check on
your Aunt Cindy. She isn’t familiar with certain things, so I’m afraid she can’t handle it on her own. Call
me when you’re done, i’ll treat your team to a good meal.”
At that moment, Arielle realized that Henrick started having dubious assumptions about Cindy.
That was a good chance for Arielle to find out if the secretpartment in her mother’s office was still
there.
“Okay, you go ahead. I’ll look for you when I’m done.” She smiled
“Sure, have a good time. I’ll get going.” Henrick said as he turned to leave in a rush.
Obviously, he had no trust for people around him, including his wife. Ament from others would
easily sow a seed of doubt in him.

Arielle thought that it would be quite easy and yet challenging to attack people who were not resolute.
She could not give herself away in front of Henrick, otherwise, she would be suspected too.
The smile on her face remained until Henrick disappeared from her sight when the elevator door
closed.
Iris did not notice the changes in Arlelle’s expression. She teased her, “Ms. Sannie, do you remember
my text message? There’s a new person in charge today. Do you want to know who it is?” Arielle’s
response was slightly dyed as she was not paying attention. “Who?”
To her, she could not be bothered about the new personnel. All she wanted was a smooth day at work.
Iris chuckled. Before she could say anything they had arrived at the top floor. The elevator door
opened, revealing a towering figure.
That man outside the elevator was exceptionally good-looking. He had a pair of deep-set eyes, a
chiseled face, a defined jawline, and outstanding features.
Who else could it be if it’s not Vinson?
Arielle was so stunned to see Vinson showing up at the elevator. The next moment, she turned to Iris
as she recalled her text message.

Iris giggled, “Ms. Sannie, Mr. Nightshire is the person in charge of today’s shoot.” Arielle was
bbergasted / Why is he the person in charge? As the CEO of Nightshire Group, is he that free?
Vinson was nning to go downstairs and pick Arielle up. Seeing that she had arrived, he took a step
back and cast a look at Iris. Instantly, Iris got the cue. Keeping her head low, she scurried away and left
them alone. Confused, Arielle asked, “How-did you be the person=in charge? You don’t have
anything to do in yourpany?”

Vinson replied casually, “It’s just a simple shoot that won’t take up a lot of my time. Moreover, I can
continue working from here. I’m more worried about your performance as the ambassador. This is a
project that I ce great emphasis on, don’t you mess it up.”

She answered, “I can guarantee that I won’t let you down. Let’s get started!”
She had toplete quite a bit in the afternoon due to the fact that she had requested for a half-day
leave in the morning.

It should not be too stressful to look through the to-do lists for both the morning and the afternoon tasks
in the absence of the woman who liked finding fault with her
Soon, both of them entered the CEO’s office one after the other.
When she was passing by an office, she could hear children’sughter.
She stopped in her tracks and queried the staff, “Why are there children at the office?”
The staff replied, “This is ourpany policy. Working parents are allowed to bring their children in and
stay in the kids yroom. With a specialized person taking care of the children, employees can be
more devoted to their work.”
Arielle nodded. When the staff left, she turned to
Vinson andmented, “I didn’t expect that my dad is quite humane to his employees.” “Humane?”
Vinson chuckled as if he had just heard a joke
Dumbfounded, she asked, “Why? What are youughing at? Did i say anything wrong? It’s not easy for
females to find a suitable job after bing a mother. He’s willing to hire them and amodate their
needs by setting up a kids yroom. Isn’t that a humane
move?’
Vinson shook his head. “That’s what you think when you don’t know the full story. Henrick did employ
working mothers, but he pays them ording to part-time wages although their workloads are more
than full-time staff. This isn’t a humane move, but an act of oppression. Do you really think that the
yroom has a conducive environment?”
As soon as Arielle heard that, she opened the door to the yroom and was immediately greeted by a

pungent stench of pee and poop lingering in the air.
Some of the kids were ying by themselves but a majority of them were crying. The so-called
‘specialized staff was seen sitting at the side, ying games on her mobile phone.
Arielle was dumbfounded.
There’s nothing humane about this whole situation. In fact, it’s a form of oppression in disguise. =*
She was horrified at the sight. Yet, she was not too surprised that it happened because it did seem like
something Henrick_would do.
How selfish and immoral could he be to recruit employees through such despicable means?_
Arielle made a firm decision to reorganize Southall Group back to what was originally Moore Group
Regardless of whether Mom’s death has anything to do with Henrick, it’s an indisputable fact that he
has snatched away Mom’s business empire./ must take possession of Southall Group!
“Let’s go.” Arielle’s face darkened as she went ahead to the CEO office.
Vinson had no idea why she suddenly looked glum; he suspected it was rted to Henrick. He blurted,
“If you beg me when I’m in a good mood, I can help you teach Henrick a lesson.”
“No need. I can handle it myself.”
Arielle appreciated Vinson’s good intentions even though she did not express it so.
The CEO office was thest room at the end of the hallway. It was extremely spacious and nicely
decorated with French windows and potted nts. Compared with the dirty and smelly yroom, they
are worlds apart.
Iris quickly approached Arielle, “Ms. Sannie, the equipment have all been set up. Pleasee with me
to get changed. Your clothes have been carefully selected for you.”
Arielle nodded and followed Ins to go get herself ready.
Watching Arielle leave the room, the director could not help but voice his concerns to Vinson, “Mr.
Nightshire, although Ms. Sannie is a gorgeous girl, do you think that something is missing if she were
to assume the role of a CEO? Something about her aura”
“Aura?”
The director nodded. “Yes, you know, an air of dignity thatizens talk about. She’s such a goody two
shoes. So, I’m afraid that she’s not able to y the role well. Consequently, it will have an adverse
effect on themercial. I’d rather we select another person to y this role.”
