Chapter 1230 Refused To Enter
Arielle turned her attention to Cornelius when she noticed an expression change on his face.
Cornelius continued saying with mixed reactions, “When Queenie got discharged from the hospital, she begged my Dad to allow
her to run for the patriarch position, and...my dad agreed.”
Cornelius knew Arielle was on bad terms with Queenie, as he had often heard how Queenie had cursed Arielle in the past.
The fact that Queenie wanted to contest for the family’s patriarch position meant that these two women would be competing
against each other.
Arielle was not triggered by the news. She responded calmly, “Got it. Thanks for telling me.”
Cornelius looked at her and tried to defuse the tension. “Queenie’s temper had improved ever since she cback from the
hospital. | don’t think she'll give you a hard ttomorrow, but if she did, tell me. My dad and | will not turn a blind eye to it just
because she’s a family. We'll treat every contender equally, so don’t worry.”
“Thanks for the assurance,” Arielle said.
Cornelius’ car had finally arrived at the Nightshire residence.
“All right.” Cornelius stopped his car. “Take a good rest. I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow.”
“Okay. Thanks for sendinghtonight.” Arielle got down from the car.
After dropping Arielle off, Cornelius left the Nightshire residence.
Arielle stood in front of the door for a few minutes as if something was holding her back from entering the house.

Arielle’s expression stiffened, and she replied, “Yeah, there's still something | need to do.”
For sreason, she didn’t have the courage to step into the house.
Perhaps she was afraid she might see the escort lying in Vinson’s arms.
Should | return to Maple Mansion instead?
When she was about to turn around and leave, a car stopped right in front of her.
“Sannie?” Susanne got down from the car and greeted Arielle with a grin.
Susanne’s body reeked of alcohol. It was obvious that she had just returned from a party.
Arielle could not help but knit her brows.
Why do | have to bump into her when I'm about to leave?
Susanne had been observing Arielle from afar when her car arrived on the driveway.
She could tell something was amiss and was worried about Arielle.
“Why are you standing here in the middle of the night?” Susanne went up and held Arielle’s arm.
“Mom...” Arielle forced a smile and asked, “Did you just cback from a party?”
Susanne nodded and sighed. “Vinson doesn’t like to attend social events, but as businesspeople, networking is important. So |
have no choice but to do it for him.”
After realizing she got distracted by Arielle’s question, Susanne turned to her and asked again, “You haven't answered my
question. Why are you standing here?”
“]..." Arielle stammered. “There's something | need to do. | got to go now.”
Susanne looked into her eyes and paused for a moment. “Did you have a fight with Vinson?”
Arielle froze right away. She didn’t expect Susanne to see through her.
