Chapter 702
Soon, Wendy arrived at the Southall residence.
Cindy was still locked up in her room, while Malorie’s ashes were still in the backyard. Although she
was already cremated, the funeral was still three days away.
For the past two days, Henrick had been looking for someone to take over thepany and wanted to
sell his shares and assets at the best price possible. He did not need to leave the house to do all that,
so Wendy found him as soon as she arrived.
“Mr. Southall, my name is Wendy Greene. My family is the founder of Greene Corporation in Horington,
of which my father is the chairman.”
Once he heard Wendy’s self-introduction, a pleasant smile spread across Henrick’s face, and he
enthusiastically asked the housekeeper to pour her a cup of tea. “Did your father send you because
he’s interested in buying my shares?”
“Your shares?” Wendy shook her head as she exined, “No, I’m here because of something else. It’s
Arielle. I’m her ssmate, as well as her best friend.”
Henrick’s face clouded over the moment he heard Arielle’s name, and he almost wanted to shoo
Wendy out of his house.
However, on second thought, he remembered he had yet to get back the shares he gave Arielle before
this. Thus, he could only force suppress his irritation and asked, “What’s up with her?”
“It’s this.” Wendy opened up the school forum’s page and showed him the photo. “This girl looks a lot
like Arielle, and she didn’te to school today as well. I was just worried that she might have done
something silly and came over the moment I saw this post. As you know, Mr. Southall, my family is
simply barge into the hotel…”
Taking over the phone, Henrick saw only the back of the girl who was held in the man’s arms, but he
thought she indeed looked eighty percent simr to Arielle.
Added with the fact that Wendy just mentioned that Arielle did not turn up in school on that day, Henrick
was one hundred percent certain the person in the photo could be no one else but Arielle.

His face darkened, he immediately roared with fury, “This girl has no sense of shame at all! How dare
she do all this shameless stuff and continue to embarrass me! And now, she’s even hooked up with her
teacher? What nonsense is this!”
Arielle promptly advised him, “Mr. Southall, now’s not the time to be angry. Arielle isn’t in any way that
kind of girl. Maybe Mr. Baxter… Why don’t you go and have a look, Mr. Southall? What if Arielle’s the
victim in this
case?”
In fact, Henrick could not care less about whatever disaster struck Arielle. However, he thought about
the fact that Arielle was secretly married to Vinson.
If Vinson sees this, then I might get embroiled in this mess as well!
The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became. Finally, he mmed his hand on the
table and asked, “Which hotel is she at? Take me to her at once!”
“Yes, Mr. Southall.” That was precisely what Wendy wanted to hear. Without further ado, she led him
straight to Grandview Hotel.
On the way there, Henrick pondered deeply about the current situation and figured there was no better
moment to snatch back Arielle’s shares than now.
Regardless of whether she had gone to the hotel willingly or not, sleeping with her teacher was a very
disgraceful act.
He nned to offer to help her suppress the scandalous news. In exchange, she would have to give up
her shares to him.
He figured she would not want Vinson to know about this scandal and would have no option other than
to rely on him to cover it. To him, it was a simple feat as he could easily hire someone to do with a
small fee.
Hmm, what a great idea indeed!
Henrick felt extremely pleased with himself and urged the driver to speed up.
Meanwhile, Wendy was not idling around either. She
had just sent Susanne a text to inform her about the incident.
About half an hourter, they arrived at the hotel.
To their surprise, there was already a huge crowd of reporters at the entrance, blocked by the hotel’s
security from entering
