Vinson pressed his voice and said, "Are you sure that’s your wish? I’ll give you another chance."

Arielle knitted her brows and looked at him.

"You want to grant me another wish? Do you think you’re the magical Genie?"

Everyone, including Shandie and Cindy, looked at Vinson and Arielle in disbelief.

What’s going on? Does this beggar know Vinson? Vinson gazed into her eyes.When he was about to respond to her question, Henrick interrupted.

"Nice to see you, Mr.Nightshire! Why didn’t you tell me you’re coming?"

All the guests’ jaws dropped when Henrick greeted Vinson.

Cindy instantly closed her eyes as she dared not imagined what would happen next.

What on earth is happening? Henrick finally noticed something was amiss and started looking around.

A sudden frown warped his face the moment he saw Arielle.

Henrick turned to Shandie and said, "Why did you invite a beggar to our birthday party? Get her out of here!"

Shandie froze for a moment even though deep in her heart she was pleased with his reaction.

"Dad, she’s…"

"Dad!" Arielle interrupted.

"Don’t you remember me? I’m Sannie!"

Sannie was Arielle’s nickname.

"San…"

Henrick raised his brows and widened his eyes in shock.

"You’re Arielle?"

"Yes, Dad.I’m Arielle," she walked up to him.

Arielle did not remember anything that had happened a decade ago, but she remembered that familiar face.

Upon hearing that, Henrick staggered.

Fear was written all over his face as he was afraid that his secret would be exposed.
