Chapter 715
The call was soon picked up, and Susanne immediately said, “Vinson Nightshire, get home right now or else I’ll end my life here and now!”
Susanne had been loud and firm, and the butler could not help but gasp in silence.
After all, he had never heard Susanne speak to Vinson in that way before.
As she expected, Vinson did not reject her this time.
“I’ll be back once I’m done with the company’s matter.”
“You better be fast, or else you’re going to hold a funeral for me!” With that said, Susanne ended the call.
On the other side of the call, Vinson irately threw the documents aside. They slid before coming to a stop by the laptop, where the tenth episode of a romance show was playing
Vinson then turned off his screen and rubbed the bridge of his nose before calling Arielle.
Arielle was just about to pack her things and head home when Vinson called. At the caller ID, her heart raced, and she cleared her throat before picking up the call.
“Hello?”
“Sannie,” came Vinson’s soft voice. “My mom asked me to go home and visit her, so I won’t be coming home tonight.”
Arielle was silent for a few seconds before muttering, “Do you need me to come with you?”
“No, it’s fine. She won’t have a filter in her mouth when she’s angry. I don’t want her words to hurt you.” Vinson paused. “Don’t worry. I can deal with this on my own.”
“All right.”
“By the way, the manager of Maureen’s Kitchen has called me and told me that the monthly report is out. As the owner of the restaurant, I think you should take a look at it.”
“Okay,” Arielle answered.
Right then, Trisha walked by her.
When she noticed the grimace on Arielle’s face, she asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Nothing,” Arielle said with a shake of her head. “Something came up at the last minute, so I won’t be able to go to the library with you. I’m sorry.”
