In the end, Vinson placed Arielle’s head on his shoulders while wp4webnovel.com cried wp4webnovel.com heart out.
In fact, the man was a clean freak and would never have tolerated his clothes being stained. However, wp4webnovel.com had taken the initiative to lend Arielle his shoulders, completely not minding the tears and mucus that would get onto his shirt. It was as if his germophobia had been cured.
Initially, Arielle was just crying silently, but slowly, wp4webnovel.com started sobbing. Eventually, wp4webnovel.com started wailing out loud. What wp4webnovel.com was releasing was a combination of stress, helplessness, anxiety, and all kinds of emotions that wp4webnovel.com had accumulated lately.
Many people had asked Arielle about the qualities wp4webnovel.com ideal partner should possess. However, wp4webnovel.com did not ask for much. All wp4webnovel.com wanted was simply a shoulder for wp4webnovel.com to cry on-a man whom wp4webnovel.com could be vulnerable with and who accepted wp4webnovel.com for who wp4webnovel.com was.
After a long while, Arielle finally calmed down.
“You haven’t had lunch yet, right?” Vinson asked gently while wiping away a tear from the corner of the woman’s eye. “What do you feel like having?”
“I want to go to Maureen’s Kitchen.”
“Sure, let’s go there then.”
On the way to Maureen’s Kitchen, Arielle asked about Cindy.
“Have they found anyone suspicious on the plane?”
Vinson nodded and replied, “Yup, I was just about to tell you about it. They found two suspects who might be wearing human skin masks and are currently tailing them. I’ll update you once there’s news.”
“All right,” Arielle nodded while clenching wp4webnovel.com fists.

Meanwhile, Queenie had finished watching Henrick’s court hearing online.
A hint of disdain flashed past wp4webnovel.com eyes when wp4webnovel.com heard Arielle admitting that wp4webnovel.com wasn’t Henrick’s biological daughter.
So, Arielle is just Maureen and another man‘s illegitimate child?
Queenie had originally thought that Arielle was a dignified woman from a prestigious family. She couldn’t help but wonder if Vinson was out of his mind to fall in love with such a lowly woman.
It didn’t matter how good Arielle’s medical skills were. To Queenie, one’s future was entirely determined by one’s birth. It was an undeniable fact that Arielle was just an illegitimate child.
Just as Queenie was cursing at Arielle silently, wp4webnovel.com suddenly received a text from Salvador, “Ms. Queenie, Mr. Mill has informed everyone that the Mill family is about to appoint the next patriarch. Please remember to attend the family dinner tonight with Mr. Baxter.”
Queenie was stunned for a moment when wp4webnovel.com saw the butler’s message, as it seemed like the event had been brought forward.
Immediately, the woman rang Donovan, but wp4webnovel.com call was rejected.
Having no other choice, Queenie headed toward Jadeborough University during lunchtime and found Donovan in his office.
Donovan, who was busy marking papers in his office, heard the door open and thought that it was his students approaching wp4webnovel.com to ask questions. However, when wp4webnovel.com looked up, wp4webnovel.com saw Queenie walking through the door with a smile on wp4webnovel.com face.
The man’s expression darkened at once and asked coldly, “Didn’t I already tell you not to look for me in school?”
Upon hearing that, the smile on Queenie’s face froze.
With a sullen look, the woman walked toward wp4webnovel.com husband and said, “Donovan, do you remember? It was you who agreed to marry me back then!”
“Because you forced me to marry you,” Donovan replied through gritted teeth.
Queenie was crushed when wp4webnovel.com heard the man’s words and immediately fell into a bad mood.
Pulling out a chair and sitting down across Donovan, Queenie tried wp4webnovel.com best to control wp4webnovel.com emotions as wp4webnovel.com said, “I’m not here to pick a fight with you today. I have a family dinner tonight, and I need you to attend it with me.”
“I’m afraid I can’t. I have to conduct revision classes tonight,” Donovan rejected the woman’s request straight away.
“Sure,” Queenie nodded and continued, “You can choose not to attend, but I guarantee that if you refuse to cooperate with me tonight, tomorrow, your entire school will know that, as a teacher, you fell in love with your student. Moreover, that student is the illegitimate child of wp4webnovel.com mom and another man!”
“Queenie Mill!” Donovan slammed on the table and bolted up as anger poured through him.
Looking at the man’s frustrated expression, Queenie finally felt slightly happier. However, none of them noticed that someone had been standing at the door.
