Chapter 1317


    "You guys had such a huge fight this time. She is a child, so she''s still impulsive. Just don''t be so


    stubborn and give her some space and time to admit her mistakes. I believe things will be much


    better," Katherine said frankly.


    "I''m not the person who gave birth to her," Cindyined, "She''s not my own kin. For me to


    raise her for so long, does she even know how much I spent on her?"


    "Then why did you raise her in the first ce?" Katherine asked.


    Cindy was instantly rendered speechless.


    A sh of panic flitted across Cindy''s eyes. She lowered her gaze and picked up the cigarette on


    the table. After lighting it up, she took a long puff.


    "Cindy, I''ve been with you for so many years. I don''t often stick my nose into your private affairs, but


    you''ve been raising her for so many years. You should continue raising her since it''ll benefit you in


    the future."


    "This d*mned brat hasn''t contacted us yet. She wants to cut off all ties with me but I''m still her


    rightful guardian. Let''s see what she can do next," Cindy took another puff. She tightened her fists,


    her fingernails sinking into her palm.


    "Beep beep."


    Suddenly, the phone rang.


    She had received an email.


    Cindy tapped on it and opened her email inbox. The photo attached in the email was toorge.


    She needed to zoom out to see what it was.


    Hence, Cindy bit on the cigarette and quickly tapped on the screen to zoom out. Soon, she saw the


    entire picture clearly.


    Her face suddenly turned pale.


    With her mobile phone in her hands, she stood up from the sofa in a panic.


    "Cindy, what''s wrong?" Katherine asked with concern, "You don''t look too good. Who emailed you?"


    "It''s nothing. I''ll go back to my room first," Cindy said in a trembling voice. Her tone sounded pretty


    urgent, "Don''t bother me. I promise I''ll be fine."


    After that, she strode back into her room.


    The door mmed shut behind her.


    Katherine was very puzzled. She had a feeling that at that very moment, Cindy''s steps seemed like


    they were trembling.


    Katherine was not certain what had happened, but she knew Cindy very well. To suddenly have


    such arge change in expression was indeed strange. Should she contact her manager>


    Cindy entered the room and locked the door behind her. After clicking on the email once more, she


    found that it was indeed a photo of her nudes.


    Why did this photo still exist?


    Wasn''t this photo already bought and confiscated by the public rtions team?


    Wasn''t it already destroyed?


    Cindy looked at it carefully and saw that it was sent anonymously. It was then that she realized that


    this was another attempt to ckmail her.


    It was just a photo, with no other words or content written in the email.


    It didn''t seem right at all.


    Cindy was so frightened that her hands and feet were shivering. She was constantly wondering:


    was this photo sent by the press, or not?


    She paced back and forth in the room, at a loss for what to do.


    About half an hourter, a series of notifications rang out again. Cindy opened it in a panic and saw


    a passage written in the email.


    The content read, "Cindy White, you''d better don''t do anything dumb. Stop trying to take things that


    aren''t yours. If you do, trust that not only will this photo be exposed, your fun time with the director


    will also be exposed. I believe that this will mean the end of your career, and you''ll be known as a


    b*tch by the public."


    After reading the threat, Cindy waspletely stupefied.


    She was shaken to her very core.


    She wanted to reply to it, but she didn''t know who to send it to.


    With that, Cindy lost sleep for the entire night. She looked extremely weary.


    The next day, Katherine noticed Cindy''s haggard face. The thick makeup could not conceal her


    fatigue.


    Cindy seemed to be in a very bad state. It was as if she had suddenly aged a few years.


    "What''s wrong with you?" Katherine asked out of concern, "Would you like me to tell your


    manager?"


    "It''s nothing. Don''t say anything," Cindy did not say anything else and stopped Katherine from


    reporting things to her manager. She then plopped herself down on the sofa and asked, "Have you


    contacted that brat?"


    Katherine hurriedly replied, "Oh, I''ve gotten in touch with her. She asked me to convey a message


    to you. She said that she wishes for you to give up being her guardian. When she grows up, she will


    repay you when she is able to do so. Until then, she hopes that you can forfeit being her guardian."


    "What?" Cindy''s eyes widened in disbelief as she muttered, "Are you kidding? Forfeit? Is she going


    to search for another household?"


    "Cindy, what do you think? How could Celeste be so bold?" Katherine analyzed the situation with


    her and spected, "Could it be that she has already found a home to take her in and found


    someone to back her up?"


    "No," Cindy denied directly. "Her life is too simple. She doesn''t have many friends. At most, she is


    friends with Heinz''s son and Zachary''s daughter."


    "Celeste only has a few friends. Recently, she just got to know Liam. However, it is impossible for


    Liam to be her guardian without discussing this with me."


    "What about the Jones Family?" In Katherine''s opinion, the Jones family was a very capable family


    and was sufficient to support her.


    Cindy was taken aback, and there was a trace of suspicion in her eyes. At the thought of Heinz''s


    words, she suddenly stood up and rushed out.


    "Cindy, where are you going?" Katherine was shocked.


    "I''m going to look for Heinz," Cindy walked out without looking back.


    Katherine wanted to stop her, but she couldn''t do so in time.


    Cindy ran directly to the Jones family''s vi and knocked on the door forcefully.


    When the butler came out and saw Cindy, he was very puzzled and asked, "Who are you looking


    for?"


    "I''m looking for Heinz," Cindy was stern, "Heinz Jones, get the hell out here."


    In Cindy''s opinion, someone who was capable of obtaining her nudes as well as the video of her


    sleeping with the director would be someone who was influential. Moreover, the person had to be


    able to send an anonymous email without being tracked down. Apart from Heinz, no one else could


    fit the criteria.


    Therefore, she had a feeling that Heinz was the person who sent her the email.


    Cindy couldn''t help but feel extremely ashamed and exasperated when she thought of how Heinz


    could''ve seen her obscene videos.


    Her hard work for all these years seemed like a joke.


    Wouldn''t Heinz secretly think that she was an embarrassment? She would be even more ashamed


    in the future.


    "Cindy," Katherine rushed over and grabbed Cindy by the arm. She dragged Cindy back whilst


    pleading, "Cindy, listen to me. Let''s go back."


    "What on earth do you want to do?" The butler was surprised to see Cindy here.


    To have some crazy woman knock on the door noisily just to meet the master of the house early in


    the morning was peculiar.


    "I''m really sorry," Katherine smiled apologetically at the butler, "We''ll leave now."


    "Why do we have to leave?" Cindy''s impulsive acts were fueled by the shame and anger in her


    heart. She shoved the butler aside and broke in.


    "Stop!" The butler shouted angrily, "What on earth do you want to do?"


    "Heinz Jones," Cindy shouted loudly, which startled everyone in the building.


    "Heinz Jones, you''re such a loser. You''re so disgusting. What the hell are you scheming against me


    behind my back?"


    Heinz just happened to go downstairs with Grace.


    When he got downstairs, he heard themotion outside. After listening carefully, he found that it


    was Cindy''s voice. He suddenly frowned.


    Just then, Hermione, Yvonne and Nerissa arrived downstairs as well.


    "What''s going on outside?" Hermione frowned and asked, "Why is it so noisy? Who is it that''s


    cursing Heinz?"


    "It''s Cindy White," Heinz also cooled down, "Who knows what''s going on in the head of that crazy


    woman."


    Meanwhile, both Ernest and Maria were standing on the stairs.


    As soon as she heard Cindy''s name, Maria quickly said to Ernest, "I''m going to apany Celeste.


    You stay here."


    "Hurry. Don''t let Celestee down," Ernest instructed.

    "Okay," Maria hurried upstairs.


    Ernest walked downstairs slowly.


    Meanwhile, Cindy had already broken into the living room.


    She was initially filled with rage. When she entered the living room, she saw so many people staring


    at her. All of them looked healthy and had a good night''s sleep.


    She thought of how sleep-deprived she was, and how they were so well-rested in contrast.


    Cindy had no time to care about that. She stared at Heinz with a shrill look and used him,


    "Heinz, you are a business tycoon. How could you trick me like that? What do you get in return for


    destroying my career? I''ve been working so hard all these years. Even if I have blundered, it''s my


    privacy. What does it have to do with you? Why do you have to ckmail me like this?"


    Heinz waspletely puzzled and asked, "ckmail you? When did I ckmail you?"


    "You''re still pretending?" Cindy was even angrier and shouted, "I can''t believe you''re trying to deny


    it after pulling it off! Can you even call yourself a man?"
