Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire novel Chapter 14

Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 14

Arielle watched Cindy bring Shandie upstairs with unsympathetic eyes. In fact, there was a solemn look in them.

It seems like the slap from Cindy is worth it.

However, this will be the last time Cindy will be allowed to hit me.

Once Shandie was gone, Henrick walked toward Arielle and said, “Sannie. I remember you used to be called Sannie, right?”

Arielle nodded. Her nickname had sounded like Shandie’s name, so she did not like it much anymore.

“What about this, Sannie?”

Henrick sighed before pursing his lips. Then, he said, “I’ve spoiled Shandie. It’s partially my fault that she has done such a horrible thing. We should’ve called the cops, but she’s still your younger sister, and we’re a family. Moreover, you’re fine, and she has reaped what she sowed. Let’s forget about this, all right? However, I’ll still punish her and compensate you. Is that okay?”

Arielle balled her hands into fists under the sleeves of her pajamas.

What do you mean by “you’re fine?”

If I was really bitten by the snake, Shandie would have made sure no one knows about it.

By the time the sun rises, my body would have gone cold. Yet, you’re asking me to pretend as if nothing has happened? You’re only grounding her for a month?

At that very moment, Arielle knew what kind of person Henrick was.

As long as it was nothing threatening to him, he would not easily abandon Shandie.

After all, the more daughters he had, the more chances for him to cling to a wealthier family.

Henrick was a man who would do anything to get what he wanted.

Arielle could not wrap her head around why her mother had fallen in love with someone like him.

Arielle was thoroughly disappointed. It did not matter to her that Henrick was her biological father anymore.

However, she showed none of that on her face. Instead, she plastered a sweet smile on her face and nodded. “I can’t decide, so, Dad, I’ll just heed your words. Shandie’s still young, so I won’t blame her for anything. I’ll pretend nothing happened, and I’ll still be a good sister to her. I just hope Shandie won’t mind too.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll ask her to forget about this as well. No one will mention this anymore. I’m sure the two of you will be able to get along fine.”

“Of course.” Arielle smiled, her dimples emerging on both sides of her face.

Anyone who looked at her would assume that she was innocent and sensible.

Henrick sighed in relief, feeling glad about the situation.

Not only was this daughter of his pretty and forgiving, but she was also obedient.

She’s much more obedient than I thought she would be. That’s good. She’ll be easy to control.

“It’s getting late. I’m sure you must have been shocked today too. Rest earlier. Tell me what you need, and I’ll do my best to fulfill your requests.” Henrick was in a good mood. For once, the miser was not stingy, for he handed Arielle another card.

“There’s one million in this. In total, you’ll have two million, including the other million I’ve given to you earlier. You can spend it on anything you like. Once you’ve spent it all, you can come and ask for more. You shouldn’t live as you used to in the village. You’ve got to act like the daughter of the Southalls. I’ll ask Alfred to bring you to shop for clothes tomorrow.”

“Thank you, Dad! You’re the best!”

Ego stroked, the upset from Shandie’s incident dissipated from Henrick’s mind. He then hummed a tune as he went upstairs.

The moment Arielle returned to her room, the sweet smile on her face disappeared.

Even if Shandie’s stupid, she has Cindy watching out for her. On the other hand, I have no one.

I only have myself.
