Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 278
Henrick sighed in frustration.
I shouldn‘t have brought this crazy b*tch back! Her antics have thoroughly
embarrassed me.
The backyard once again regained its serenity after Cindy had been escorted back to the house.
“Apologies, everybody,” Henrick started. “Cindy is too distraught tonight to think straight. She has made a fool of herself in front of all of you.”
The crowd exchanged glances before dismissing his apology by waving their hands. “Not to worry, it’s completely understandable.”
“Make sure Mrs. Southall takes care of herself. You can always try for another child. It wouldn’t do if she fell ill.”
“You must take care of yourself too and be strong throughout this ordeal.”
With the words of consolation offered by his guests, Henrick felt much calmer.
Russell hesitated before stepping forth.
“Henrick,” he said, tugging his arm. “Cindy doesn’t look too well, I’m afraid. We should find a good doctor to have a look at her. I’m worried for her if this goes on.”
Henrick nodded. “I’ll do that.”
“Speaking of doctors,” Russell continued, with a thumbs-up of admiration, “your daughter Arielle is an excellent one. If it weren’t for her, I would have died from a cerebral hemorrhage last night.”
Henrick was shocked. “Arielle practices medicine?”
Russell returned Henrick’s look of surprise. “Don’t you know that your daughter is a miracle doctor?”
“How is that possible?” Henrick murmured, his mind a blank.
Didn‘t Arielle grow up in the village? From where would she have learned the art of medicine?
How am I completely unaware that my daughter is skilled in the medicinal arts? Did she keep it from me on purpose? Why would she do such a thing? Is Arielle up to something like Cindy is? Or did she return here with a motive all along?
Perhaps I need to take the initiative to know my daughter better.
