Henrick’s fury was beyond words and description.
Arielle was the perfect profit—making machine, and Henrick would never have chased her away if the
psychic never said anything about her bringing bad luck.
“Rick…”
Cindy could see how angry Henrick was, and she got so scared that she almost fell.
Fortunately, Malorie was there to stop her from falling. The former reminded, “Cindy, be careful.”
Malorie glared angrily over before repriinanding, “Rick, why are you being so harsh to Cindy? Have you
forgotten that she is pregnant with my grandson?”
Henrick was about to swing over and slap Cindy across her face, but hearing those words stopped him.
I fC indy wasn’t pregnant with Henrick’s son, he mi ght’ve just divorced her on the spot.
Henrick bit down and thought about Arielle. He reached out to hold her hand before apologizing, “This
is all my fault, Sannie. I bought your Aunt Cindy’s lie. I would never have chased you out otherwise.”
Henrick changed his stance fastc1’ll1an a fish could die in the desert. What’s worse was that he didn’t
think he was wrong at all. Malorie, however, panicked.
“Rick, you can’t let her stay. I don’t like her, so you must chase her away!”
“Mom! You don’t understand anything, so please stop butting in on this matter,” complained Henrick in
frustration.
“Oh, I’m the one who doesn’t understand anything? Hah! There is definitely something bad about her.
You have never spoken to me in that disrespectful tone before she comes around. Besides, I believe
that she brings bad luck, even though Michael only said all that after Cindy paid him.”
Malorie’s words reminded Henrick of something important.
I can ask him to read Arielle’s fortune for real.
“Michael,” said Henrick as he let go of Arielle’s hand and turned to the psychic. Henrick asked, “Can
you do a real reading for my daughter? I will pay you ten times what was offered.”
Arielle’s gaze shifted to Michael.
She couldn’t deny that she had a good feeling about the guy, and it wasn’t just because he didn’t do as
Cindy asked. He also had a clean, holy aura around him.
Hence, Arielle stepped forward and offered, “Okay, please read my fortune.”
Michael was quiet for a few seconds before he nodded and said, “I like your aura, so I will do it for
free.”
Michael asked for Arielle’s date of birth and had her show him her palm.
About ten minutes later, Michael shifted his gaze to
Arielle and stared in astonishment. He asked, “W-who are you?”
Arielle was confused and asked, “What are you talking about?”
Michael checked the reading again and replied, “I can’t see your future because it’s all a blank to me,
but the
readings are clear as day. You are blessed by an angel, and your future is ‘infinitely bright!”
Arielle didn’t believe in what Michael was saying and assumed that he was just helping her out.
Hence, she grinned appreciatively and replied, “I hope that’s true, then.”
Henrick’s eyes bulged in surprise when he heard everything from the side.
Blessed by an angel! That means that she will definitely
become the wife of Nightshire Group’s CEO. Thank the heavens I didn’t chase her out.
Henrick held Arielle’s hand and said, “Ah, my precious daughter. I promise I will treat you well and will
never leave you again. I won’t let anyone hurt you either.”
Arielle scoffed internally, but she put the perfect smile on her face.
In the past, she saw Henrick as nothing but the sperm donor that allowed her mom to give her life.
Arielle also saw the guy as the person who was only her father on paper. However, she had mentally
cut Henrick off completely at that moment.
Naturally, Henrick had no one but himself to blame for that.
