Chapter 14 Billion

Arielle watched Cindy bring Shandie upstairs with unsympathetic eyes. In fact, there was a solemn look in them.

It seems like the slap from Cindy is worth it.

However, this will be the last time Cindy will be allowed to hit me.

Once Shandie was gone, Henrick walked toward Arielle and said, “Sannie. I remember you used to be called Sannie, right?”

Arielle nodded. Her nickname had sounded like Shandie’s name, so she did not like it much anymore.

“What about this, Sannie?”

Henrick sighed before pursing his lips. Then, he said, “I’ve spoiled Shandie. It’s partially my fault that she has done such a horrible thing. We should’ve called the cops, but she’s still your younger sister, and we’re a family. Moreover, you’re fine, and she has reaped what she sowed. Let’s forget about this, all right? However, I’ll still punish her and compensate you. Is that okay?”

Arielle balled her hands into fists under the sleeves of her pajamas.

What do you mean by “you’re fine?”

If I was really bitten by the snake, Shandie would have made sure no one knows about it.

By the time the sun rises, my body would have gone cold. Yet, you’re asking me to pretend as if nothing has happened? You’re only grounding her for a month?

At that very moment, Arielle knew what kind of person Henrick was.

As long as it was nothing threatening to him, he would not easily abandon Shandie.

After all, the more daughters he had, the more chances for him to cling to a wealthier family.

Henrick was a man who would do anything to get what he wanted.

Arielle could not wrap her head around why her mother had fallen in love with someone like him.
