Arielle felt nothing. She was no longer the same person she was when she first returned to the Southall
residence.
Henrick’s words could no longer hurt her.
However, she put on a pitiful expression and replied sadly, “You misunderstood. I didn’t go out to play
or anything. It’s just that I didn’t see either of you when I exited the liospital,so I thought that you
might’ve left due to some emergency. I assumed that you will return to pick me up once-you finished
settling the matter. That is why I waited at the.hospital’s entrance. I waited for hours, but you never
came back…”
Henrick was takertabacl<..He was about to speak up when Cindy beat him. to it. She pointed out,
“Sannie, kids shouldn’t lie in frontof their parents. Why didn’t you call us if you had been waiting for so
long?”
Arielle replied sadly, “My phone ran out of battery. Besides, I never thought that the two of you would
just leave and never come back for me.”
Hearing those words stung Henrick’s heart. Guilt washed over him as he walked to Arielle and tapped
the back of her hand. He apologized and promised, “This is my fault. There is simply too much to do
today, and I neglected you. I promise you this, though. It will never happen again.”
Arielle had her gaze down as she nodded. She seemed extremely pitiful at the time.
That was the side of Arielle that Cindy hated the most. Henrick has never seen Arielle’s true colors
before, but I have! This pitiful sh*t is just an act. How shameless of that b*tch.
Cindy was infuriated, but her phone rang at that moment.
It’s the psychic I hired!
The psychic was famous and rather good at the job, but
Cindy had spent enough money to get the psychic to say whatever was necessary.
A sharp glow flashed past Cindy’s eyes, but it only took an instant before it vanished.
She had a smile on her face when she picked up the call and said, “Hi. Oh, you’re waiting by the door?
Okay, I’ll go pick you up now.”
After saying her piece, Cindy hung up and told Henrick. “Rick, Mom asked me to hire a psychic for
Shandie’s funeral. The psychic is here now, so I’ll get Mom over.”
Henrick was quick to stop Cindy. He sounded heartbroken when he informed, “Have you forgotten that
you are pregnant? Why are you still running around like this? Just have the housekeeper call Mom
over. Sit and rest well. I will open the door for the psychic.”
Cindy grinned and pointed out, “I’m only a few months pregnant. and we can’t even hear the heartbeat
yet. I feel line. so it’ll be okay.”
“Fine? You’ve been having morning sickness all day! Just sit tight.”
Cindy put on an exasperated expression before she nodded and reminded, “Okay, then remember to
be polite when you see the psychic, okay? He is renowned, and it is ridiculously difficult to hire him.
Many rich and powerful families hired him to read their palms. The Morgans, in particular, have a
weekly reading.”
Henrick couldn’t help becoming more stern after hearing about the Morgans.»
He was a graduate of Jadeborough University and had scientific knowledge. Howevenhe grew up poor,
and like Malorie, he was rather superstitious deep down. He believed that there were invisible forces in
play.
Hearing how reputable the was get Henrick to become more serious. He promised, “Don’t worry, I won’t
make a mistake. I’ll get him over now.”
After Henrick said his piece, he told Alfred to get Malorie over.
She was the one who asked for the psychic to be there, so it was only natural that she would be
worried until she saw everything done with her own eyes.
Henrick then turned to Arielle and instructed, “Remember to pay your respect to your sister.”
