My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

"Snowball was a trained pooch. It doesn't attack people a lot, but it's very alert. With Anne going missing in the Saunders household, I initially thought that it was because Snowball had been poisoned in the Saunders house. However, now, it looks like someone could've led them out of the Saunders property. There are so many surveillance cameras around the Saunders family compound, how could it be possible that nothing was caught on camera?"

Aaron frowned slightly, as if he had realised something. With slight hesitation, he said, "So, you think that someone in the Saunders family did it?"

I nodded. Then, I continued, "Moreover, that person should be quite close to Anne, otherwise Anne wouldn't follow them out of the Saunders house so easily." After a pause, Aaron frowned. "Do you suspect that it was Josiah who did this?" he asked.

"Is it not possible?" I looked towards him and continued, "Monique hadn't wanted Anne to be accepted into the Saunders family, and even more so refused to let Josiah know of Anne's existence. I had initially thought that because Anne was connected by blood to him that it would be best if there would be one more person on this earth who would love her. However, now, it looks as though Josiah wanted to keep Anne forever in the Saunders family, and he didn't want to let Anne leave with me!"

Aaron pursed his lips and looked at me. Somewhat disapprovingly, he said, "Josiah has been a businessman for so many years, and there's no way he would do something like this. First off, if he wanted to keep Anne in the family, although he could make her stay temporarily, she would still grow up eventually. She's the granddaughter of the Saunders family, and she will have to attend all sorts of banquets in the future. Our social circles aren't that big, so it wouldn't take long for you and Hendrix to find out."

I looked down and fiddled with my fingers anxiously, saying, "Perhaps it's a ploy set up by both him and Hendrix at the same time?"

Charles looked at me and slightly knitted his brows, he said, "Arianna, let's go back first."
