Cecilia knew her daughter was a smart woman who knew what she was doing, so she didn’t ask any
further questions. All she did was do as her daughter asked and sent someone to look into Arielle.
Arielle had a simple background. Nothing too outstanding, but her photo caught Cecilia’s eye. When
she saw the photo, Cecilia was drawn to it, immersing herself in Arielle’s face for a long while.
When she snapped out of it, she realized that she had stared at the photo for ten long minutes. And
Cecilia was a woman. On top of that, Arielle didn’t have any makeup on, since it was just an ID photo.
All of a sudden, she knew why Cecilia wanted to know everything about Arielle. This girl is a threat.
And a big one at that.
Her husband used to cheat on her with another beautiful woman, but Cecilia won out in the looks
department, so she managed to win her husband back in the end. After she collected her thoughts,
Cecilia called her daughter.
Wendy picked it up quickly. “You’re done?” She was curious. “That’s fast.”
“Yeah. Sent you the email. Make sure it’s not in the junk file.” Cecilia coughed. “Wendy, she’s a simple
girl, but she’s gorgeous. Ruin her if you can, and keep her away from Vinson no matter what.”
Of course Vinson would fall for her. What man wouldn’t? Heck, I almost fell for her too, but that’s
beside the point. The point is, this Arielle girl is bad news!
Cecilia thought Wendy would say something, but when she didn’t get any answer, her heart sank.
“Wendy, Vinson saw her already, didn’t he? Don’t tell me they’ve already met?”
Wendy still wouldn’t answer, but Cecilia knew that her guess was true. After all, she was Wendy’s
mother.
Cecilia gasped, but she calmed down quickly. “Calm down, Wendy. I’ve seen her résumé, and it’s
nothing to write home about. The only highlight is that some pianists praised her during the freshman
party. I can tell you that a woman like her can never marry Vinson, so don’t ruin your plan just because
of her. Keep calm and don’t let anyone catch your opening, especially not Susanne.”
“I understand, Mom,” Wendy finally answered.
Cecilia heaved a sigh of relief. “Just lay low and don’t do anything. Once your first monthly test is over,
I’ll teach that girl a lesson myself. She’ll never come near Vinson ever again.”
Wendy was surprised. Ever since she was a child, Cecilia had always kept her under a lot of protection
and never allowed her to do anything that’d ruin their family’s reputation. She never thought her mother
would get rid of Arielle herself. Does that mean mom thinks Arielle is a threat as well? But I won’t
complain about her helping me out.
Wendy bit her lip. “I understand. I’ll just stay here and wait for you then.”
“Good. Now go back to the campus. I’ll need to settle some things as well.”
After she ended the call, Wendy opened her email right away. She clicked into the résumé Cecilia sent
her and looked through Arielle’s background.
It wasn’t the first time she had seen it, but after finding out that Arielle was also a doctor, she started
doubting the document she found.
However, her mother sent her the same thing she scraped up. The only difference was that it was more
detailed. Is Arielle really just a bumpkin who came back from the countryside? But if that’s true, there’s
no way someone like her can play the piano and be a doctor.
