Chapter 167 Anything Unusual

Arielle let go of the name card. “Okay. The flight is tomorrow. Send your child overseas and keep a low profile. I promise I’ll bring him back safe and healthy.”

Larissa’s heart was beating fast, with her eyes brimming with tears. “Thank you so much, Ms. Arielle. I knew that you were a good person all along. But, what is it you want me to do for you?”

“I… I want to know about my Mom.”

Right as those words left Arielle’s lips, Larissa’s face paled in fright, as though the former had mentioned something terrifying.

“Why?” Arielle asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

 

Larissa said with a soft voice, “We’re forbidden to mention Mrs. Moore in this house.

Arielle furrowed her brows. “Fret not, Mrs. Southall is currently at the monastery, while Dad is occupied with his works. They won’t show up here. Just tell me everything you know about my Mom.”

 

Larissa carefully headed to shut the door, before coming back to the conversation.

“Ms. Arielle, to be frank, there’s a rumor among the elder staff here.

“Rumor?” Arielle shook her head right away. “I don’t want to hear any rumor, just the facts that you know. Starting with the day my Mom got killed, did you notice anything unusual that day?”

“Anything else?”

“I could not recall anything else about that day. But I remember that Mrs. Southall cried hard at the funeral, even though they were not close as sisters. However, Mrs. Southall did not live here during that time. So if you’re suspecting her with the death of Mrs. Moore, there’s nothing I can help.”

Larissa added, “Plus, Mrs. Moore was also not close with Mr. Southall. She used to attend all occasions alone without him. As Mr. Southall was the one who married into her family, he got a low status during the time. He got looked down on by some of the housekeepers, and Mrs. Moore would not allow him to be part of your life.”

Thinking that Henrick was not her birth father, Arielle could comprehend her mother’s action fully.

Larissa spoke while observing Arielle’s expression. “Shortly after we heard about Mrs. Moore’s suicide, we heard that you were gone. Rumor has it that it was because Mrs. Moore didn’t pick you up at school, so you tried to find your way to the company but were abducted on the way. Strangely, Mr. Southall did not call the cops, as he said he had hired people to search for you. That’s all I know.”
