Chapter 40
Feigning an innocent and happy look, Arielle nodded and exclaimed, “Thank you, Dad! I was just feeling scared to go there alone
Henrick was over the moon. It was his fortune to have such an easily manipulated daughter
Taking back the contract, he stood up and said, “We’ll head to Nightshire Group tomorrow morning at ten I’ll bring you to the stylist two hours before that. It’s getting late, so I’ll go to sleep now. You should rest earlier too.”
Grabbing the opportunity, Arielle asked, “Dad, I still can’t sleep. Can I read in your study room?”
Henrick hesitated for a few seconds before nodding. “Sure, but you can only read the books on the left side of the shelf Don’t touch the other
areas.”
“Okay, Dad” replied Arielle
After Henrick left, the obedient look on Arielle’s face disappeared.
Standing up, she closed the door before turning around and scrutinizing the room

The shelves, tables and chairs were all made from luxurious rosewood. Furthermore, they looked quite old
Arielle ran her fingers over the shelf. Mom has probably touched these spots before, right?
She had lost all her childhood memories due to a high fever. All she could remember was her mother,
She could still remember the feeling of her mother’s hands gently caressing her face. In addition to her gentle smile, Arielle could also remember her saying, “Run away, Sannie! When you grow up, take revenge for me…”
However, she could not remember what exactly happened that prompted her mother to say that.
When she investigated her mother’s cause of death, Arielle discovered that she had been going for health check-up every year. Even though her health report did not show anything wrong with her mental state, she had committed suicide due to depression,
She had asked the doctor who gave her mother the check-up. The doctor had a strong impression of Mom and was certain that she did not have depression
In that case, her mother did not die of suicide. Instead, she was murdered!
Arielle closed her eyes. She felt a layer of mist obscuring her vision, preventing her from discovering the truth
When she opened her eyes again, she could finally think and see clearly
I will definitely discover the truth!
Arielle rummaged through the shelf carefully, but did not discover any of her mother’s belongings. There was not even a photo in sight.
Logically speaking, after someone’s wife died, he would still keep a few photographs of her.
However, she could not spot a single momento of her mother in the study room,
There were two possibilities for this…
Either Henrick did not display a photograph because he was scared that Cindy would be jealous, or he did not have any feelings for her mother at all. In fact, he might even have detested her.
It was impossible for him to be scared that Cindy would be jealous. His male chauvinistic ego would have no room for Cindy’s crap.
Hence, the latter explanation had a higher possibility.
