Wendy was so agitated that her eyes turned crimson red, but Vinson remained calm as always as he responded over the phone.
“This has nothing to do with that. That customer of ours is doing fine now, and he'll be joining us at the press conference soon.”
“But | thought the news stated that he was still in the emergency room.” The girl widened her eyes in bafflement.
That's true, but Arielle managed to treat him. He's doing_better now, so | won't be needing_your help.” There was pride in Vinson’s
voice as he explained the situation to Wendy.
“Wait. What?” The girl could not believe what she heard. Arielle? She's trained in medicine? How's that possible?
Before Wendy could ask any more questions, Vinson continued, “If you really want to help me, then leave my house as soon as
possible. Like | told you, you and |, it's not going to happen. Please stop wasting both our time.”
The call dropped the second Vinson finished his sentence.
Obviously, the man thought he had said enough and made himself abundantly clear.
As if her heart had been broken into a million pieces, Wendy then started crying uncontrollably.

turn you down? | know you're just trying to be helpful. He has no idea how lucky he is to have you. But don’t you worry. I'll scold
ssense into him. You'll see.”
Having only raised up boys, Susanne had no idea how to comfort the young lady. All she could do was assure Wendy that she
would give Vinson a piece of her mind.
“You don’t have to do that, Mrs. Nightshire.” More than anything else, Wendy worried that Susanne would despise her the way the
woman did at the freshman party.
That was why she had to prevent Susanne from finding out that not only could Arielle play the piano well, but her rival could also
practice medicine.
Before Susanne could reach the phone, Wendy quickly pulled the woman's hand toward her. “| wasn’t crying because | was sad.
These are tears of joy. Vin didn’t turndown; he just toldthat the physician was unnecessary because they managed to save
the customer, who even promised to join the press conference to reveal the truth.”
Still in doubt, Susanne narrowed her eyes at the young lady before confirming with her. “Are you sure? Because you looked pretty
sad towhen..."”.
“] was only sad because...” Wendy paused for a while and plastered on a smile. “It was only because | couldn't
do much to help Vin. | felt useless since | didn’t contribute much. That's why | was sad.”
Susanne then breathed a sigh of relief. “You silly girl. What did that boy do to deserve someone like you?
Trustwhen | say that you're the only person | want as my daughter-in-law. Nobody else. Just you.”
With that, a shy but grateful smile slowly appeared on Wendy's face. “I... | don’t know what to say, Mrs. Nightshire.”
“You don’t have to say anything. Just go back to your class and leave everything to me. I'll talk to Vin as soon as the Soir Coffee
incident blows over.”
As glad as she was to hear that, Wendy was still concerned if Susanne, someone who had no authority in the Nightshire Group,
could command Vinson to marry her against his will.
Pursing her lips, the young lady decided to hide her worries for the moment and embraced Susanne. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Nightshire.

Wendy also promised herself that she would do all she could to make Vinson fall in love with her.
After much anticipation, the press conference was finally about to start.
