Chapter 1319
"That being said, this is not how the world works. Celeste has been missing for so many days, but
you haven''t even tried to look for her. You are still in the mood to buy a house and take part in
various shoots in London. Are you not afraid that your actions might actually cause her to actually
go missing?"
Cindy felt a pang of guilt listening to her words.
However, she was still stubborn, "I deliberately let her suffer."
"She''s underage and hasn''t returned for so many days. Aren''t you worried?" Hermione scoffed,
"Cindy, do you think everyone else is a fool?"

Cindy''s face darkened, "No matter what you say, I will not forfeit being her guardian."
Everyone could see how hard-headed Cindy was.
Heinz''s gaze was sharp, "You must have the capital in order to continue being her guardian."
To refuse giving up ownership but insisting on treating Celeste unkindly was simply despicable.
Cindy''s expression froze and she said through gritted teeth, "Heinz, that''s precisely why I''d like to
ask you to return me the things in the email. Then, I''ll bring Celeste with me and I''ll leave you alone
for the rest of your life."
"The things in the email?" Heinz frowned and asked with slight surprise, "What email?"
"You sent me an email to threaten me because you want topete for being Cindy''s guardian,
don''t you?" Cindy exined, "I know it''s you. You don''t have to pretend."
"What email?" Grace also looked at her husband in surprise. She didn''t know. Did Heinz do
something behind her back?
Seeing as his wife was looking at him, Heinz was even angrier and shot back, "I don''t know what
you are talking about. Why don''t you take it out and let''s have a look?"
"You..." Cindy''s face drained of colour before blushing furiously. She growled softly, both ashamed
and furious, "You know that I can''t show it to others. You''re just doing it on purpose!"
"It can''t be shown to others?" Heinz noticed her concern at one nce. He squinted his eyes and
looked around sharply, "If that''s the case, the contents of this email is really worth scrutinizing."
"Heinz Jones," Cindy stood up. She really couldn''t sit still since the existence of that video made her
feel as if she was sitting in a pile of needles. She snapped, "Can you stop pretending?"
"I really don''t know what you are talking about. I have never sent you an email, nor have I ever
asked anyone to send it to you. Therefore, no matter how indecent the content could be, I have no
idea what it is. If you doubt it, then you should report it to the police," Heinz was solemn.
"It''s you. Who else can it be except for you?" Cindy red at Heinz.
"I don''t agree with what you said," Heinz smirked coldly, "Your niece is indeed in our house, but I
have no idea about the email."
"I don''t believe you."
"I don''t need you to believe me," Heinz replied sinctly, "You''d better forfeit the title as Celeste''s
guardian. If not, I''m not sure if I can withhold my curiosity from searching for that email of yours and
actually using it to threaten you to give up guardianship over Celeste."
"You''re despicable."
Heinz sneered and looked at her indifferently, "Whatever you say."
"Cindy," Katherine couldn''t keep up with the situation. She didn''t know what was going on, thus she
could only whisper to Cindy, "What email? Why am I not aware of this?"
Cindy nced at her and met her shocked and puzzled gaze. She immediately avoided it.
She couldn''t say it. Katherine was her assistant. If she told Katherine, this would definitely be known
to her manager.
Although she had the same motive as her manager, she had done this behind her manager''s back.
Cindy didn''t wish for her manager to know or be involved in this. Therefore, she couldn''t tell
Katherine about this either.
"Don''t ask," Cindy didn''t tell her.
"But if you don''t tell me, how can we solve this problem effectively?" Katherine looked at her in
dismay, "Let''s reach an agreement first so that we can solve this problem."
Cindy ignored her and remained silent for a while. She turned to Heinz and said, "Heinz, how about
I hand over Celeste to you and you delete everything in the email. How about this?"
"Cindy, think twice about it," Katherine was stunned. She didn''t expect Cindy to give up so easily.
The contents of the email must be something very serious.
Cindy''s expression sank. She gnashed her teeth and said, "I''ve thought about it. I can''t let them ruin
my lifelong reputation."
"Cindy White," Heinz said again, "We are very happy that you are willing to hand over the title of
being Celeste''s guardian, but I still have to say that I was not the one who sent the email to you."
"You didn''t send it to me?" Cindy was a little stunned.
"It''s really not me," Heinz was absolutely serious.
"Miss White, did you offend someone?" Grace took this time to ask, "Did someone send something
to you?"
"Isn''t it obvious enough?" Hermione rolled her eyes, "Just look at her! She''s probably offending
people everywhere she goes. I really don''t understand. Why does an actress like her choose to
stoop so low?"
Cindy pursed her lips and suddenly panicked.
She noticed that Heinz had denied everything calmly.
After thinking about it carefully, she realized that this was really unlike Heinz. If he really sent it, he
would admit it. It seemed that this email really had nothing to do with Heinz.
If that was the case, who on earth would ckmail her?
Katherine was also questioning Cindy. In fact, Heinz, Grace and all the people in the room were
staring at her. It was like she was the butt of their jokes.
Everyone''s gazes were so sharp that it felt like they were stripping her bare and revealing all of her
secrets.
Such a revtion made Cindy feel extremely embarrassed. She just stood there in a daze, unable
toprehend what was going on anymore.
What she was unaware of was that Celeste had been listening to the entire conversation. She knew
that Cindy was willing to use her guardianship over Celeste as a bargaining chip. Hence, Celeste
was both shocked and extremely upset.
Celeste was eager to have someone else be her guardian. However, when she realized that Cindy
was serious, she still felt downcast. Her entire face was ashen.
And what about that email?
Celeste was a little worried about what had happened to her aunt. Was someone trying to ckmail
her?
Celeste stood in the corridor frozen in ce.
"Celeste?" Maria asked in a soft voice.
Celeste shook her head and assured her, "I''m fine."
Maria knew that Celeste must be very sad since she looked quite pale.
Meanwhile, themotion downstairs was still ongoing.
The bitterness in Cindy''s heart continued to spread, and her embarrassed face had turned ashen.
She hesitated for a long time.
It was dead silent in the living room. No one spoke, but everyone was looking at her.
The atmosphere was frighteningly quiet.
Katherine was very anxious and urged, "Cindy, let''s contact your manager. She will help us solve
this."
Cindy shook her head.
Hence, Katherine also couldn''t do anything about it.
Cindy closed her eyes in frustration and opened them some timeter. It seemed that she had
made up her mind.
She was determined, "Fine, I''ll hand Celeste over to you. I believe that you will not mistreat her.
Please hand me the official documents and I''ll sign it as soon as possible."
Heinz and Grace were both taken aback.
After saying that, Cindy was ready to leave.
"This afternoon," Heinz told her, "I''ll hand over the official documents to you by this afternoon."
"Okay," Cindy did not stop and strode out of the hall.
Grace suddenly changed her mind. After a slight pause, she chased after her.
At the door, Cindy''s figure was stiff.
"Miss White," Grace called out.
Cindy stopped in her tracks. She turned around and looked at Grace.
Grace walked over quickly and stood in front of her.
She then said, "I''m very grateful that you agree."
Cindy scoffed, her expression still dull, "Grace, you don''t have to be a hypocrite and thank me. I''m
the one who wants to thank you for what happened to me. Now, you''re thanking me because you
obtained Celeste''s guardianship? Are you out of your mind?"
Grace was startled. Momentster, she shrugged, "Maybe I''m really out of my mind. Who knows,
maybe I''m really just being pretentious."
Cindy was the kind of person who would not be grateful to others. It was actually unnecessary for
Grace to catch up with her, but she couldn''t help but do so after being reminded of Celeste''s kind
personality.
"Although you have agreed to hand Celeste over to us, you are still the person who brought her up,"
Grace contemted seriously before adding, No matter what happens, I hope that you''ll be able to
resolve the issue with the emails carefully. At the very least, none of us hope that your entire life will
be ruined."
Cindy''s eyes narrowed.
"I''m not doing this for you, it''s for Celeste," Grace exined.
