When Arielle walked out of the master bedroom, she noticed that Vinson had opened one of the
luggage.
In fact, she had been thinking about it just now. She wondered why Vinson brought two pieces of
luggage up when she only had one.
Feeling puzzled, she leaned closer to look at the luggage. It turned out that there were a lot of tools and
equipment for cleaning inside.
Arielle glanced at the luggage. There were even tools to clean the windows inside.
Then, Vinson laid out all of the tools. There were so many of them that they took up half the living
room.
Arielle laughed under her breath upon seeing Vinson taking out a broom in his work uniform. It feels
like I’ve hired a professional cleaner.
“You have a lot of professional equipment with you. I’ll give you a raise in your salary later.”
“Thank you, boss.” Vinson bowed politely toward Arielle.
Seeing that, Arielle could not help but chuckle.
Not long later, they started cleaning the room.
To Arielle’s surprise, Vinson was efficient at cleaning. The dusty room turned sparkly clean in less than
two hours.
Arielle opened the air conditioner, and the moldy smell in the room dissipated gradually.
Then, she turned around to Vinson and said, “I’m going to make the bed now. You can throw the
rubbish downstairs. Then, we can go get some groceries for our dinner tonight.”
Vinson made an OK sign with his hand before carrying the garbage down.
Staring at his back, Arielle felt the empty holes in her heart fill up instantly. She did not know how to
explain the complicated feelings within her heart, but she had to admit that it was, indeed, a good
feeling.
After Vinson left, she went into the bedroom to make the bed.
Suddenly, she noticed a photo under the mattress, so she leaned over to pick it up.
As soon as her gaze fell on the photo, she was stunned.
Vinson came back a few minutes later. He noticed that Arielle was not in the living room, so he headed
inside the bedroom to look for her.
Right then, Arielle was staring at the wall in a daze with the photo still in her hand,
Vinson could not help but ask, “What are you looking at?”
Arielle immediately regained her senses upon hearing that. She lifted her head to look at Vinson. She
was so excited that her eyes began to glimmer with tears.
Vinson frowned slightly. Subconsciously, he reached out a hand to wipe away the tears at the corners
of her eyes.
There were calluses on his fingers. Arielle felt like an electrical current shot through her body as he
rubbed her face with his rough fingers.
Suddenly, her heart began to beat faster. She froze for a second before taking a step behind
subconsciously.
With that, Vinson’s hand stopped at the mid-air. His gaze darkened, but he soon recovered from it.
“What’s wrong? What are you looking at?”
Arielle coughed, trying her best to calm herself down. Then, she handed the photo to Vinson. “Look at
this! I found it under the mattress just now. It must’ve been left by Mom back then. Henrick moved all
the valuable things away, but he had never touched any furniture. That’s why this photo is still here!”
Vinson took over the photo to look at it. Maureen was smiling sweetly in the picture. The man who
stood beside her wrapped his arms around her as he looked at her affectionately,
That man was very handsome-looking. He had perfect facial features. Every corner of his face was well
chiseled. His eyes were dark, and his nose was beautiful. Moreover, his look exuded a domineering yet
elegant aura.
Most importantly, his facial features were very similar to Arielle’s.
“This man…” Vinson widened his eyes in surprise.
Arielle knew what was on Vinson’s mind. She nodded and said, “I think he might be my biological
father.”
