Chapter 11 Bad News

“Don’t you remember? When you drew a picture for Anna to design a new house, she left the drawing on my door. I can see that you have a unique design idea, so I signed up for you.” Hebe said with a smile.

“I…” Cinderella didn’t know how to appreciate her boss at this time.

“There’s no need to say thank you. If you really work in AS company, you can invite me to a meal.” What Hebe couldn’t stand most is that others showed a grateful expression to her. She quickly shook her hand and said to Cinderella.

Cinderella knew what kind of person Hebe is. Needless to say thanks, she nodded and said, “I promise.”

Carefully fold the poster and put it in her bag. It was the first time when Cinderella shows a happy smile in a month.

“That’s right. Don’t always be sad. You should smile.” Hebe sincerely said and half-joke about her, “If you really enter the AS Company to work, don’t show your stern face again, although many guests here have called you iceberg beauty.”

At this, Cinderella smiled and nodded.

“Well, it’s getting late. You can go home now! It will take some time for the result to come out. Just be patient.” Hebe said with a smile.

“OK.” Cinderella then stood up, nodded to Hebe and said, “then I’m afraid I will leave now.”

Hebe smiled as Cinderella when she walked out of the office and closed the door softly. After that, she lowered her head and continued to deal with the matter at hand.

Cinderella came out of the office and was very excited. She couldn’t help taking out the poster in her bag and looked at it. She liked several masters introduced on the poster, and took them as an example.

She dreams of becoming an excellent interior designer

She has never forgotten her dream.

When she was very excited about her dream, the mobile phone that had rarely rings, especially when she changed her new number more than a month ago, suddenly rang.

Hearing the sudden ringing of the bell, Cinderella somehow had a premonition. When she took out her mobile phone and saw the familiar number on the screen, she stopped smiling instantly.

Staring at the mobile phone for a long time, she thought that she hadn’t called her father for more than a month. Finally, she could only answer it in a helpless voice, “Hey, Dad, what are you looking for me to?”

“Cinderella, you have no conscience at all. Do you know how hard I found you?” The person at the other end of the line said angrily and shouted in a mean voice when she heard Cindy’s voice.

That’s right. The one who called Cindy is her, Linda. Hearing Linda’s voice, Cinderella frowned immediately. Now she didn’t want to hear Linda’s voice, so she said coldly, “I’m not interested in talking to you.”

Linda felt that Cinderella wanted to hang up the phone. She immediately raised her voice and screamed. “Your father is dying. You have no conscience at all. Don’t you come back to visit him?”

Cinderella was very angry when she heard Linda curse her father like that. She said, “What are you talking about? Crazy people. Do you hate my father that much?”

“I’m not crazy. If you don’t come back, your father will die. Don’t blame me for not informing you.” Linda yelled angrily and then hung up the phone.

After that, Cinderella was very anxious.

She was really worried about what had happened to her father. Although Linda is vicious, she has never said that her father was going to die twice.

Did he really get hurt?

Cinderella panicked. She didn’t have time to think about it and quickly ran to the street and waved to stop a taxi.

In order to save money, she is reluctant to take a taxi ordinarily. She didn’t care about it this time. She got in the car and told the address to the driver, and then it was a long wait.

When the taxi arrived downstairs, Cinderella hurriedly gave the fare, opened the door and began to trot.

Her apartment is not a high-end one, but those who can afford to buy a house in this place, where possesses convenient transportation, can also be regarded as rich people. Compared with here, Cinderella’s rented house is a slum.

Cinderella trotted up the stairs all the way. Before she could catch her breath, she heard Linda’s screaming at home, which made her feel headache, “Vincent, don’t get me and Ella involved. If you want to die, just die yourself.”

When she heard this, Cinderella had no time to think about it. She immediately opened the half-closed door and entered the room.

Vincent sat decadently on the sofa. His wrinkled suit had not been changed for three days, and his tie had been torn loose. His neatly combed hair in the past had been so messy. After many days of lack of sleep, his eyes were full of bloodshot, and there were heavy dark shadows under his eyes. He looked decadent and desperate.

Cinderella was relieved to see her father sitting there healthy and unharmed.

Sitting on the sofa, when Vincent saw his eldest daughter suddenly appear. He was surprised and quickly stood up and said in a hoarse voice, “Cindy... Cindy, here you are.”

Linda also turned her head at this time. She looked at Cinderella with anger, and then she said with a sneer, “Well, I’m so happy to see that Cindy’s home. We are in trouble. You can’t abandon us!”

“Linda, what are you doing?” Vincent looked at Linda angrily and said, “I told you don’t tell Cindy. I don’t want her to worry...”

“Then when will you tell her? You’re going to jail.” Linda suddenly thought of something, stared at Vincent in surprise and asked, “I know it. Do you want to sacrifice Ella and me to keep her safe!”

“What are you talking about?” Vincent didn’t want Cinderella to worry too much. He gave a hint to Linda to stop talking.

“You are evil, Vincent, if you dare to hurt Ella, I won’t make your daughter live a good life.” Linda pointed at Vincent and said angrily.

Cinderella saw Linda blaming her father like a mad woman, and she couldn’t understand what they were talking about. She couldn’t help asking loudly, “What the hell happened?”

Cinderella suddenly asked loudly and interrupted Vincent’s quarrel with Linda. Vincent heard Cindy’s concern and didn’t know how to face her, so he had to turn his face to another side.

Vincent didn’t want Cinderella to worry, so he chose not to say. But Linda was afraid that Cinderella wouldn’t help. She left Vincent and quickly turned to look at Cinderella and said, “You know what? Your father is going to jail.”

“Go to jail...” Cinderella couldn’t believe it. She looked at her father, but her father didn’t dare look at her. Finally, she could only turn her eyes back to Linda and asked anxiously, “why is he going to jail?”

Linda looked a little unnatural and said, “he embezzled the company’s public funds. Now he has been found out... Of course, he is going to jail.”
