    Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 260


    Disheartened upon seeing Shandie’s corpse, tears slid down Henrick’s face uncontrobly.


    Witnessing the man grieving over his deceased daughter, the bystanders inevitably felt distressed.


    It was almost like he really was a father crying over his daughter’s death.


    The housekeepers crowded around Henrick and offered their condolences, but only Arielle understood


    what he truly felt.


    He had spent immense effort and money to nurture Shandie, and she was quite pretty when dressed


    up appropriately. With her appeal, she could undoubtedly marry into a wealthy family in Jadeborough.


    Her sudden death was solely a blow to his master n.


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Hence, he was not grieving for the loss of a daughter but a useful pawn.


    Arielle did not further contemte Henrick’s feelings. She merely stared intensely at the dagger in


    Shandie’s hand.


    Suddenly, she found something wrong.


    She stealthily took out her phone and snapped some pictures of the scene.


    Only then did she walk toward Henrick and feign sorrow. “Dad, I’m as saddened as you are. However,


    now is not the time to mourn because I think Shandie’s death might not be as simple as it seems. We


    should contact the police first.”


    As Shandie and Arielle did not see eye to eye, unfavorable rumors would arise from the former’s death.


    To prevent troublesome gossips, she had to prove her innocence.


    However, Henrick immediately refused, “Why should we contact the police? Look at her! It’s obvious


    that she cut her wrist. Do you want the outsiders to gossip about us?”


    His words were indeed true. Besides, the injuries on Shandie’s back were his work. Thus, if the police


    were to investigate, he would be the first suspect.


    Even if he could prove his innocence, rumors would still spread among the public


    As he was concerned about his reputation, he would never agree to the risky measure.


    Disappointed, Arielle mentally shook her head. She had anticipated his refusal, which was why she


    discreetly took the photos earlier.


    As Henrick was adamant in his stance, she did not bother mentioning the police again. Instead, she


    suggested, “Still, we should hold a funeral for Shandie. However, regarding Aunt Cindy…”


    Henrick stood up and assured in a pained tone, “T’ll appoint someone to fetch her. Also, we’ll announce


    to the public that Shandie passed away from an illness. You don’t need to worry about this matter


    anymore. If the news gets out, it will impede your marriage into the Nightshire family. Right now, you


    should head back to your room and take a rest. I’ll handle this matter.”


    “All right.” Arielle nodded docilely as she secretly scorned him, He‘s still thinking about my marriage to


    the Nightshire family at such a moment? What an unbelievable man.


    Before leaving, she stole a nce at Shandie’s corpse. Upon confirming she had not overlooked any


    details, she turned and walked back to her room as she gestured for Larissa to follow her.


    Right after they entered her room, Arielle immediately questioned, “When I arrived, you were already


    there. Do you know what happened? Who was the first to discover the corpse?”


    With Arielle’s help, Larissa’s child had received treatment abroad and convalesced after some time. As


    such, she had now devoted herself wholeheartedly to Arielle.


    She answered truthfully, “I’m in charge of the cleaning of this household. The first person to discover


    the corpse was a housekeeper working with me today. As you and Mr. Southall asionallye back


    due to the slippery floor.”
