In the end, Vinson placed Arielle’s head on his shoulders while snazzynovel.com cried snazzynovel.com heart out.
In fact, the man was a clean freak and would never have tolerated his clothes being stained. However, snazzynovel.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, snazzynovel.com started sobbing. Eventually, snazzynovel.com started wailing out loud. What snazzynovel.com was releasing was a combination of stress, helplessness, anxiety, and all kinds of emotions that snazzynovel.com had accumulated lately.
Many people had asked Arielle about the qualities snazzynovel.com ideal partner should possess. However, snazzynovel.com did not ask for much. All snazzynovel.com wanted was simply a shoulder for snazzynovel.com to cry on-a man whom snazzynovel.com could be vulnerable with and who accepted snazzynovel.com for who snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com fists.

Meanwhile, Queenie had finished watching Henrick’s court hearing online.
A hint of disdain flashed past snazzynovel.com eyes when snazzynovel.com heard Arielle admitting that snazzynovel.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, snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com saw the butler’s message, as it seemed like the event had been brought forward.
Immediately, the woman rang Donovan, but snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com to ask questions. However, when snazzynovel.com looked up, snazzynovel.com saw Queenie walking through the door with a smile on snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com heard the man’s words and immediately fell into a bad mood.
Pulling out a chair and sitting down across Donovan, Queenie tried snazzynovel.com best to control snazzynovel.com emotions as snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.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.
