Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me novel Chapter 528

Chapter 528

Under Cindy’s pressure, the bodyguards could only open the door.

“You may go now! You might need to help out in the backyard,” Cindy ordered. After the bodyguards left, she quickly rushed inside the room.

“Mom, how are you?” Cindy asked in a worried tone.

Malorie bought her act. She sighed and complained, “Rick has been bewitched by that little witch! He even locked me up because of her!”

Cindy could tell that Malorie hated Arielle. She pretended that she did not know anything. “Little Witch? Who is that? Did someone come here when I was hospitalized?”

Malorie spat hatefully, “That blasted daughter he brought back! She even glared at me last night!”

“Arielle did that?” Cindy pretended to be shocked. “You’ll need to tell Rick about this and have him make Arielle move out. Since I’m her stepmother, it’s not really my place to do that, if you know what I mean.”

Malorie replied, “I’ll talk to Rick now!”

“Don’t…” Cindy hurriedly stopped her. “Shandie’s funeral is more important. It’ll be more appropriate to talk to him after the funeral ends and all the guests leave.”

“Fine!”

Both of them walked toward the backyard together.

When Henrick saw Malorie, his expression turned grim. He frowned and looked at Cindy.

Seeing the cold glare, Cindy felt that Henrick was unhappy with her.

However, she did not think much about it. She assumed that he was unhappy that she had brought Malorie out of her room.

Since Henrick did not say anything, Cindy tended to the other guests after talking to Malorie for a while.

Soon, the funeral began.

Cindy could not help but cry again. In the end, she could not even stand still..

Without the strength to even get up, she thought that Henrick would come and help her. However, the latter was still talking to other guests.

That was when Cindy realized that something was amiss. After the funeral ended and all the guests were eating, she pulled Henrick aside and asked, “Rick, are you mad at me because I let Mom come out of her room?”

Yet, Cindy and Henrick did not notice that Arielle was watching both of them from afar.
