Chapter 520
In the moving car, Donovan’s eyes were locked on the scenery outside his window. His grim gaze was filled with determination.
Arielle can’t blame me for this. I have to complete my mission for my teaching career. With such a bad
influence in my class, my career would be ruined. I have no choice. I have to do this!
Meanwhile, at the Southall residence, the funeral had
just begun.
One by one, all the guests had arrived.
Cindy had changed into black mourning attire. Her makeup was elaborate and flawless, but she chose to wear a lighter shade of lipstick.
She had cried several times since she returned. After talking with Matthias over the phone, she felt calmer.
No matter how hard she cried and how upset she was, she could not bring Shandie back to life.
Knowing that, she knew that she had to pull herself together. She was determined to avenge Shandie’s death by taking Arielle’s life in return.
With that thought, Cindy picked herself up. She applied some makeup on the bridge of her nose to accentuate her features.
That morning when she saw Henrick, she had seen the desire in his eyes for her.
She knew that she had to use him in order to take revenge for Shandie.
After she finished putting on her makeup, she went downstairs, but Henrick was nowhere to be seen.
Thus, she asked Alan, “Where’s Henrick? Is he greeting the guests in the backyard?”
The latter shook his head and answered, “No. Mr. Southall informed that he needed to head out all of a sudden.”
Cindy frowned suspiciously. All the guests are here now. Where did Henrick go?
An ominous feeling began to grow in her.
Right at that moment, a housekeeper came and reported, “Mrs. Southall, there are two persons without invitation cards outside. Do you want to see them?”
Cindy hesitated and questioned, “Without invitation cards? Did they mention their identities?”
The housekeeper nodded and replied, “They’re teachers from Jadeborough University.”
Cindy turned to look at Alan, who had just secured his job as the butler not long ago. With a smile on her face, she asked, “How long have you been working here?”
