Chapter 97,A Beauty with Multiple Masks

Shandie answered, “She entered Mr. Nightshire’s car, so I don’t know where she is.” Right then, the

housekeeper knocked at the door. “Mrs. Southall, Ms. Shandie, Mr. Southall is back. He wants to see

both of you downstairs.” When Shandie heard that Henrick’s back, her whole body trembled in dread.

She tugged at Cindy’s clothes instinctively. “Mom, what should I do? Dad’s going to punish me.” Cindy

didn’t even flinch and replied calmly, “That’s good news.

Since Arielle bullied you, I shall inform your dad. He won’t let this slide! Don’t worry. Your dad adores you

more than Arielle as you grew up by his side.” Cindy turned on her heels to leave. Shandie was flustered,

for she had pushed the blame onto Arielle out of fear. She didn’t even tell her mom that Vinson had

called off the collaboration with Southall Group. Shit, Dad’s back. How should I explain? She was

sweating profusely when the housekeeper urged, “Ms. Shandie, you should head downstairs now.

Mr. Southall wants to talk to you.” “I’m not deaf. Stop being annoying!” Shandie gave the housekeeper a

menacing glare and pushed her away before stalking down the stairs. Fine. I shall head downstairs.

Mom will deal with it. I don’t think Dad will disown me just because of one contract.

Shandie caught up to Cindy and appeared relaxed. Downstairs, Arielle had just arrived when she saw

Henrick storming in furiously. She immediately knew Nightshire Group had informed Henrick about the

revocation of their deal. Pretending not to know anything, she went to him with a concerned expression

on her face. “Dad, what happened? Why are you so upset?” Henrick furrowed his brows and snapped,

“It’s none of your business.

Is Shandie back? I want to see her and her mom now!” Arielle shot the housekeeper an uneasy look, so

the latter immediately scurried upstairs to summon Shandie and Cindy. Soon, they both walked down the

stairs. When Cindy spotted Arielle, she immediately averted her gaze and gave Henrick a warm smile.

“Dear, why are you back at this hour? Are you suffering from a headache because you drank too much

last night?” “The nerve of you!” Henrick barked out angrily and pointed at Shandie. “Ask your daughter



how she offended Mr. Nightshire! He called off the deal with our company out of anger!” Cindy’s lips

parted in shock as she had no idea about this. Her astonished gaze landed on Shandie, who cowered

back in fear.

“I know nothing. D-Dad, is this a misunderstanding?” “Misunderstanding?” Henrick raised his phone. “I

had just returned from work when Nightshire Group called me. The person in charge told me you

offended Mr. Nightshire, so they are canceling all collaborations with us! Tell me. What happened?”

Cindy’s shock heightened when she heard what Henrick had said. Clenching her fists, she demanded,

“Shannie, what happened? Did you upset Mr. Nightshire?” “No! Of course not!” A terrified Shandie

denied instantly. She had already calmed down before getting downstairs. Now, upon seeing how furious

Henrick was, she couldn’t stop her legs from trembling.

“Hmm? Are you telling the truth?” Strangely, Henrick calmed down after venting out his anger. He took a

deep breath before uttering with an indecipherable expression, “Explain what happened today in detail.”
