Vinson thought that Carter called him to talk about something regarding the psychiatric hospital. To his
surprise, Carter blurted out the moment the call was answered, “Vin, come over quickly! We’ve found
Blake!”
Arielle, who was by Vinson’s side, had her eyes lit up when she overheard it.
She quickly urged Vinson, “Go quickly! Sasha will be so happy to hear this.”
Nonetheless, Vinson still hesitated. “What about you?”
“Don’t worry.” Arielle shot Vinson a smile and reassured him, “Today is Shandie’s funeral. Cindy will not
hope for any hiccup to happen. Besides, Mason and Yvette died in a car accident. Hence, they will not
cause a scene here.”
Vinson felt relief slightly upon hearing Arielle.
“In that case, I’ll head over to have a look first and see how Sasha has been recovering as well.”
Arielle’s hands stiffened when she heard Vinson. However, she quickly regained her composure and
nodded. “Head over quickly then.”
“Okay. Call me if anything happens here.”
“Okay.” Arielle nodded and sent Vinson off with her gaze.
Out of politeness, Vinson still greeted Henrick before leaving the funeral.
Henrick nodded in understanding. “Head over quickly.
There’s nothing much here. We will be having the ceremony in the afternoon. Do drop by if you have the
time, but it’s all right if you don’t.”
Even so, Henrick still hoped that Vinson could make it for the ceremony.
After all, he had invited many guests over for the funeral ceremony. Though Henrick dared not announce
the news of the marriage of Vinson and Arielle, with Vinson around during the ceremony, the guests
would still treat Henrick with more respect.
“All right. I’ll make a move first.” Vinson gave a nod and left.
Vinson did not look at Cindy once throughout his own time there. It was as if Cindy was transparent to
him.
This made Cindy rather awkward, but she dared not utter a single word.
After Vinson had left, she turned to Henrick and asked, “Rick, did Mr. Nightshire and Sannie get together
during the time that I was in the hospital?”
“Yep!” Henrick shot a proud smile and continued, “That’s my daughter! Although she might look clumsy,
being able to have Vinson pursue her is something extraordinary of her! I know that you don’t really like
Sannie. However, with Shandie gone now, Sannie is our only child left. I hope you can see her as your
own from today onward. She is very obedient, and she will definitely be filial toward us.”
Cindy gave a stiff smile and did not say anything further. However, her heart was filled with a grudge.
That b*tch! She is definitely skillful at seducing men. Even Henrick has so much trust in her now! It’s
okay. Once Shandie’s funeral is over, I will announce a piece of shocking news. By that time, Henrick will
definitely not place all his attention on Arielle.
The crematorium was near.
Cindy wailed when Shandie’s body was being pushed into the incinerators.
Her wailing sound was so loud that it almost shattered glass.
However, Arielle remained a cold look. It was only when Henrick was about to turn over did she put on a
look of grief.
On the other hand, Henrick’s face was filled with genuine sorrow, which was rather rare.
Nonetheless, one would be totally inhumane if they were not sad when the daughter that grew up with
them suddenly passed away.
An hour later, Cindy hugged Shandie’s urns in her arms
as she sobbed. The three of them remained silent throughout their journey back to the Southall
residence.
Right then, it was also time for class at Jadeborough University.
Donovan had no class then, as he had swapped with Arthur. Hence, he quickly headed to the principal’s
office to search for Marcus.
