Chapter 1071 My Adoptive Parents Are The Wilhelms

While the Jewells were not one of the four most influential families in Chanaea, they were certainly at the top of the

pyramid.

Moreover, the Jewell family had an ancient bloodline. Although they no longer dabbled in the business world, the

Jewells played a prominent role in politics to this day.

With Hans backing Arielle up, no one would dare to question her background or even raise the matter if she

married Vinson in the future.

Arielle’s background bothered Susanne the most, so she was delighted to hear Hans’ proposal. She mulled over it

for a couple of seconds before nodding her assent. “The two children would have a much brighter future if you

would take Arielle as your goddaughter. As you know, rumors may not leave wounds, but they can bury a person

alive.”

Hans nodded in understanding. “If my men- If Arielle agrees to it, I’ll throw a banquet and announce this news,” he

said, overjoyed.

“Sounds good,” Susanne agreed.

She figured that even if Arielle did not end up marrying Vinson, the young woman’s life would be a lot easier if Hans

had her back.

Maureen, this is the best I can do for you.

At this moment, dinner was ready.

Arielle served three steaming bowls of ravioli and took her seat. Unable to contain his excitement, Hans blurted out

his plan to take Arielle as his goddaughter.

Arielle hesitated before replying, “I… I’ll have to ask my parents about this.”

Hearing her response, Susanne was dumbfounded. “Your parents?” she echoed.

The younger woman nodded. “Mrs. Nightshire, I haven’t had the chance to tell you this, but I actually grew up in

Lightspring. My parents—my adoptive parents, to be accurate—are the Wilhelms,” she explained truthfully.

“The Wilhelms?” Susanne exclaimed in shock. “You mean the Wilhelms, as in the most renowned psychologists in

Lightspring?”

“Yes,” Arielle confirmed, but her answer left Susanne more confused. Unable to hold it in any longer, Susanne

admitted, “To be honest, I did a background check on you. The investigation showed that you grew up in a village in

Chanaea…”

With a rueful smile, Arielle told her side of the story. “I was in a tough spot at that time. I knew that Cindy and

Henrick were not easy to deal with, so I created a smokescreen. Everything that you found about me was no more

than an elaborate lie. The truth is, ten years ago, Cindy planned to sell me to a human trafficking organization. The

Wilhelms rescued me before it was too late and brought me to Lightspring.”

Upon learning that, a myriad of emotions churned within Susanne.

She had once thought that a lowly village girl like Arielle would bring dishonor to the Nightshire family. Little did she

know Arielle was the adopted child of two internationally acclaimed psychologists!

In fact, the Wilhems were more than just psychologists. They were also skilled general surgeons and leading figures

in Epea’s medical field.

Hubert Wilhelm, in particular, had contributed significantly to traditional Chanaean medicine. As a result, he had

made a name for himself in Chanaea and was recognized nationwide.

With this turn of events, there was no need for Hans to stand up for Arielle. The name “Wilhelm” alone carried

enough weight to shield Arielle from any malicious comments.

“You…” Susanne started, but she was at a loss for words. The syllable hung in the air as she dwelt on the newfound

information.

Had she known Arielle’s true identity early on, she would not have even spared Wendy a glance, let alone shun

Arielle for Wendy’s sake.

Although Susanne could not deny that she had a selfish desire for a distinguished daughter-in-law, deep down, she

just wanted to protect her son from any slander.

However, now, not a single soul would dare to denigrate the Wilhelms’ adopted daughter.

“I’m sorry.” Arielle broke the silence. “I shouldn’t have kept this from you, but I was in a bit of a predicament. If I

returned to Chanaea with my real identity known, Henrick and Cindy probably wouldn’t have received their

punishment so quickly.”
