Chapter 763
Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire
Sasha, Blake, and Arielleâs subordinates stayed in that town.
That was a small village, so the arrival of strangers would attract the villagersâ attention.
Whenever Arielleâs subordinate headed to the town, he would always disguise himself as a businessman to hide his identity.
As soon as they met, Blake began to start chattering. âBoss, the roads in that village are bumpy and uneven. Moreover, there are buildings collapsing from time to time. Many villagers do not dare to stay inside their houses, so they build their tents outdoor.(This novel will be daily updtaed The structures of those houses will definitely kill someone in the future.â
Arielleâs subordinate, Rube, shook his head vigorously. âNo. That had already killed someone in the past. From what I know, an elderly and her daughter got killed when their house collapsed. They went to ask for explanations from Mrs. Southall, but she evaded the responsibility by saying that it was an accident. She only paid part of the funeral fees as compensation.â
Blake widened her eyes as she spat, âThey are so cunning and despicable!â
Arielle turned to Rube and asked, âI have asked you to spread the news about Mrs. Southallâs death.
What are the villagersâ reactions upon hearing that?â
âInitially, only thirty percent of the villagers had signed the petition. However, after they heard about the news, the number of villagers signing the petition has increased to sixty percent.â
Arielle shook her head. âThatâs not enough yet. We need at least eighty percent of villagers to sign it.â
âThen, what should we do now? Should I disguise as a businessman to persuade them again?â
âNo need for that.â Arielle narrowed her eyes. âHenrick hasnât held a funeral for Mrs. Southall in Jadeborough. Based on his personality, heâll always try to make himself look like a filial son. Moreover, heâs feeling little guilty toward Mrs. Southall, so heâll definitely hold a grand funeral for her when heâs back. I want you to add fuel to the fire when the time comes.â
âUnderstood.â
âAlso, Iâm following you to the village tomorrow. Please bring Teddy along too. I need him to help me with something.â
âAll right!â
Arielle could not sleep that night. When she woke up, she noticed that Vinson was smoking on the bench in front of the hotel.
She got off the bed and walked toward him. As soon as Vinson saw her, he stubbed out the cigarette in his hand.
Then, he waved his hand to get rid of the smoke. âWhatâs wrong? You canât sleep?â His tone was gentle.
Arielle sat down beside him and sighed. âIâm not sure whether I understand Henrick enough. Iâm worried that he wonât hold a funeralâ¦â
âDonât you still have Teddy? He is part of your backup plan, isnât he?â
Arielle chuckled softly. âIt seems like I can never hide anything from you, huh? But in fact, I donât really want to let Teddy join. He might get injured in my plan.â
âYou can ask for his opinion tomorrow. If that doesnât work out, we can think of other solutions. Donât worry. There must be a way.â
âOkay.â Arielle nodded. They then continued to chat for a while longer.
Soon, both of them gradually felt sleepy.
Arielle rubbed her eyes. âIâll go to bed now. Donât stay up too late.â
âOkay.â Vinson responded as he watched Arielle leave. After that, he opened his laptop and started doing his work.
There were a lot of properties under Nightshire Group. Besides, Vinson was a perfectionist. He preferred doing most of his work on his own.
Finally, Vinson headed back to the bedroom at the first crack of morning sun.
The next day, Rube acted according to the plan by disguising himself as a businessman.
He passed by Teddyâs house when he was on his way to the village.
Coincidentally, Teddy had just come back from gathering coals.
âRube!â A bright smile appeared on his dirty face the moment he saw Rube.
