Chapter 1071
Chapter 1071 My Adoptive Parents Are The Wilhelms
While the Jewells were not one of the four most influential families in Chanaea, they were certainly at
the top of the pyramid.
Moreover, the Jewell family had an ancient bloodline. Although they no longer dabbled in the business
world, the Jewells yed a prominent role in politics to this day.
With Hans backing Arielle up, no one would dare to question her background or even raise the matter if
she married Vinson in the future.
Arielle’s background bothered Susanne the most, so she was delighted to hear Hans’ proposal. She
mulled over it for a couple of seconds before nodding her assent. “The two children would have a much
brighter future if you would take Arielle as your goddaughter. As you know, rumors may not leave
wounds, but they can bury a person alive.”
Hans nodded in understanding. “If my men- If Arielle agrees to it, I’ll throw a banquet and announce
this news,” he said, overjoyed.
“Sounds good,” Susanne agreed.
She figured that even if Arielle did not end up marrying Vinson, the young woman’s life would be a lot
easier if Hans had her back.
Maureen, this is the best I can do for you.
At this moment, dinner was ready.
Arielle served three steaming bowls of ravioli and took her seat. Unable to contain his excitement, Hans
blurted out his n to take Arielle as his goddaughter.
Arielle hesitated before replying, “I… I’ll have to ask my parents about this.”
Hearing her response, Susanne was dumbfounded. “Your parents?” she echoed.
The younger woman nodded. “Mrs. Nightshire, I haven’t had the chance to tell you this, but I actually
grew up in Lightspring. My parents—my adoptive parents, to be urate—are the Wilhelms,” she
exined truthfully.
“The Wilhelms?” Susanne eximed in shock. “You mean the Wilhelms, as in the most renowned
psychologists in Lightspring?”
“Yes,” Arielle confirmed, but her answer left Susanne more confused. Unable to hold it in any longer,
Susanne admitted, “To be honest, I did a background check on you. The investigation showed that you
grew up in a vige in Chanaea…”
With a rueful smile, Arielle told her side of the story. “I was in a tough spot at that time. I knew that
Cindy and Henrick were not easy to deal with, so I created a smokescreen. Everything that you found
about me was no more than an borate lie. The truth is, ten years ago, Cindy nned to sell me to a
human trafficking organization. The Wilhelms rescued me before it was toote and brought me to
Lightspring.”
Upon learning that, a myriad of emotions churned within Susanne.
She had once thought that a lowly vige girl like Arielle would bring dishonor to the Nightshire family.
Little did she know Arielle was the adopted child of two internationally acimed psychologists!

In fact, the Wilhems were more than just psychologists. They were also skilled general surgeons and
leading figures in Epea’s medical field.
Hubert Wilhelm, in particr, had contributed significantly to traditional Chanaean medicine. As a
result, he had made a name for himself in Chanaea and was recognized nationwide.
With this turn of events, there was no need for Hans to stand up for Arielle. The name “Wilhelm” alone
carried enough weight to shield Arielle from any maliciousments.
“You…” Susanne started, but she was at a loss for words. The syble hung in the air as she dwelt on
the newfound information.
Had she known Arielle’s true identity early on, she would not have even spared Wendy a nce, let
alone shun Arielle for Wendy’s sake.
Although Susanne could not deny that she had a selfish desire for a distinguished daughter-inw,
deep down, she just wanted to protect her son from any nder.
However, now, not a single soul would dare to denigrate the Wilhelms’ adopted daughter.
“I’m sorry.” Arielle broke the silence. “I shouldn’t have kept this from you, but I was in a bit of a
predicament. If I returned to Chanaea with my real identity known, Henrick and Cindy probably wouldn’t
have received their punishment so quickly.”
