Gradually, Vinson lost his patience and asked Susanne what she meant.
Why can't she accept Arielle?
Letting out a sigh, Susanne piped up in a low voice, “Do you know that Henrick isn't Arielle's father?”
Stunned, Vinson responded, “I do.”
Upon hearing that, she could not help but widen her eyes in shock.
“You knew? How did you find out?”
Suddenly, he could see that his mother's eyes were full of fear.
He felt strange, as he had never expected her arrogant self to show such an expression when she mentioned Arielle's identity.
Suppressing his suspicion temporarily, he replied, “There was once where Henrick wanted Arielle to sleep with me in exchange for the benefit of Southall Group. She felt that this wasn't something a biological father could do, so we went to Carter for a DNA test. It turned out that Henrick isn't her biological father, but he didn't seem to know about this.”
Susanne smiled bitterly. “How would that idiot know? Since Maureen decided to marry Henrick, everything was already in her plan. Unfortunately, she never expected that she would die in their hands.”
Furrowing his brow, he stated, “As expected, you knew how Sannie's mother died. Did she die in the hands of Henrick and Cindy?”
In response, she nodded and shook her head. "I don't know the specifics, but the two of them must be involved in the murder.”
Vinson was puzzled, and there was an inkling of anger in his voice. “Wasn't Sannie's mother your best friend? Why did you turn a blind eye to her death? Shouldn't you find out the truth behind her death and punish the murderer severely?”
