Just by looking at the message, Arielle could imagine Vinson’s sloppy face.
She typed her message swiftly and sent it to him: I’ll have ravioli then. You can pick the flavor.
On the other end, Vinson let out an unsatisfied smile. Is she cajoling me like I am a child?
He replied, “You’ve promised to cook me ravioli for all your life. Why don’t you accompany me to a
banquet next week? That’s settled, then.”
Vinson did not give her a chance to reject.
Arielle stared at her phone screen in hesitation.
She was reluctant to do anything that did not contribute to her purpose-particularly this sort of banquet,
which required her to meet many
people.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNevertheless, she felt strange that she somehow did not feel annoyed by Vinson’s invitation.
As Arielle always followed her heart, she accepted the invitation with a brief reply.
Driving on the road slowly, Arielle gazed at the scenery along the way while pondering about the recent
events.
Even though she managed to eliminate Cindy temporarily, she bet that the latter would find her way to
get back in the game.
She will try to come back by all-means.
Hence, Arielle needed to bribe all the housekeepers before Cindy got back. Other than that, she got to
investigate the manor thoroughly by then.
Who knows. Maybe I will discover some new clues or find out about some history.
As long as Cindy was not around, there was plenty that Arielle could achieve. That was precisely why
she suggested Cindy clear her thoughts at the monastery, even just for a short period.
Upon arriving at the house, Henrick asked the doctor to take care of Arielle’s wounds.
Most of the wounds were not serious, and along with the best medicine from the doctor, most probably,
they would not leave a scar
after recovery. Upon knowing that, Henrick let out a sigh of relief. “Sannie, you have to be more careful
next time.”
Arielle nodded and pretended to be touched
“Thanks, Dad. II be careful. Don’t worry.”
Henrick nodded with satisfaction and headed towards his study room to complete his works.
He was trying to acquire money from Vinson through all possible methods but in an unobvious manner.
Strangely, all the potential projects in the company ended up losing money recently. If this continued,
Henrick was afraid the company would not be able to hold up for long.
That was why his current priority was to boost the cash flow, as that was the only way the company

Meanwhile, Vinson and Carter had gotten back to the Jupiters’ residence.
Harvey and Jordan had also returned after being trapped for such a long time.
Four of them met and started catching up with each other.
Harvey uttered, “Those assassins were highly skilled. I recognized one of them-he was the third-best
assassin. The person who engages such a top assassin must be powerful.”
At the same time, Jordan reached his hand to check the wounds on Vinson’s body. His expression
turned relieved after confirming there was no severe injury.
The Nightshires was the leader among the four families, as Vinson was also the core person among
the four of them. If anything were to happen to him, the other three families would not be able to
escape the blow either.
Nonetheless, Jordan’s care for Vinson acted out from pure brotherhood.
Seconds later, Jordan’s relief turned into fury. “That guy is a snake in our backyard. If we cannot find
out who he is, there is no way we can hit back!”
“Who says that we cannot find him?” Just then, Vinson stated faintly, with a bit of pride within his smile.
Harvey and Jordan stared at him simultaneously. “What do you mean?”
