Chapter 526
Back then when Cindy married Henrick, she announced to the public that Shandie was an adopted child in order to protect their pride and reputation.
However, they both knew Shandie was actually their biological child.
Cindy thought that it was a good way to let Shandie enjoy all the privileges as the daughter of the Southalls as well as protect Henrick and her reputation. However, at that moment, she hated herself for hiding Shandie’s true identity.
Now, she could not even reveal the truth that Shandie was actually her biological daughter.
That woman was still consoling Cindy. Unable to bear listening to her any longer, Cindy told the guests she was not feeling well before she left the backyard.
Arielle saw that scene.
She hurriedly went after Cindy and called out to stop her.
“Aunt Cindy?”
Cindy came to a halt. She did not want to act anymore. Since Arielle had made her spit out the truth using Matthias’ herb and Henrick was not around, she knew that she did not need to put up an act there.
Coldly, she asked Arielle, “What do you want? I heard that you chased your homeroom teacher out of here. Do
you think that your father was protecting you? He just wants the money. Although you’re his biological daughter and Shandie was adopted, both of you are just his puppets to make money for him!”
Cindy was trying to provoke Arielle. Since she was upset, she would not let the latter have it easy either.
Yet, she was surprised that Arielle was not mad at all. The latter smirked as she questioned, “Adopted… Are you sure?”
Cindy froze for a while before she calmed herself. I didn’t mention anything about Shandie’s identity that day.
She clenched her teeth and asked, “What do you mean?”
