Chapter 348

Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me

“Oh…” Arielle seemed disappointed by his answer.

Henrick said nothing else and focused on driving.

However, Arielle noticed he kept blinking, which was a sign that he felt guilty.

Of course, he feels guilty. After all, he killed someone. She sneered inwardly. It’s disgusting to be in the
same car as him. Why aren’t we at the psychiatric hospital yet?

When they were about to reach their destination, Henrick’s phone rang.

As his phone was mounted to the phone holder, Arielle saw the caller’s ID on the screen—Matthias Ford.

Matthias Ford? He’s in contact with Henrick?

It came as a surprise to Arielle, but she managed to conceal her emotions well.

Henrick connected his phone to the Bluetooth speaker in his car and answered the call.

“Hello, Matthias.”

“Mr. Southall.” Matthias’ voice rang out. “Mrs. Southall’s overseas company has a new project that needs
her signature, but she’s not answering her phone. I wonder if you can contact her on my behalf.”

Those words took Arielle by surprise.

Oh? So Henrick knows about Cindy’s overseas company?



Seemingly embarrassed, Henrick asked hesitantly, “Do you need her to sign the document personally?
You’re her right-hand man. Can’t you sign it on her behalf?”

Matthias replied, “This project is beyond my authority; it involves millions. I need Mrs. Southall to sign it
in person and record the whole process.”

“Millions?” Henrick’s eyes lit up. “I thought her company has always been in the red. When did you
suddenly receive a huge order?” Surprise and confusion laced his voice.

The words registered differently to Arielle.

Her investigation results reported that all of Cindy’s overseas investments were extremely profitable.
None of them were losing money.

Thus, she concluded that the company Henrick knew was different from the ones she knew.

Looks like Cindy and Matthias have been fooling Henrick all the while. If Henrick finds out Matthias is
Cindy’s lover instead of her employee, how will he react? I believe he’ll want to kill them in a fit of rage.

As Arielle’s lips curved into a grin, Matthias continued, “Yes, you’re right. I spent over six months striking
the deal. Mrs. Southall and I are waiting to close the deal to turn the company into a profitable one. What
happened

to Mrs. Southall? Why can’t she sign the contract in person?”

Henrick was in a dilemma.

He was caught between money and reputation, which he both valued importantly.

Matthias urged, “Mr. Southall, if we close the deal, our company will receive similar orders every quarter.
We can’t miss this opportunity!”



Henrick promptly made up his mind after Matthias said that.

Exhaling sharply, he declared, “Got it. I’m going to her now, so you can join me.”

“What’s the address?” asked Matthias.

“Morgan Psychiatric Hospital,” came Henrick’s reply.

“What?” Matthias exclaimed in surprise.

Nevertheless, it was obvious to Arielle that he had orchestrated the situation.

Matthias is smart. He knows it’s more convenient and safer to visit Cindy with Henrick. She arched a
brow at the thought.

“I’m nearby. I’ll be there in ten minutes!” Matthias replied.
