Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 16

Once Cindy left, Henrick‘s gaze darted over to Arielle. “Sannie. Tell me the truth, how did you meet Vinson? Are you two close?”

Henrick wanted to ask this long ago. However, he worried that Arielle would think he was using her as a stepping stone. Hence, he refrained from asking up till now.

At this rate, it seems like she‘s too naive to question my motives.

I may as well cut to the chase and ask whatever / want to know. This silly girl will tell me anyway.

As expected, Arielle answered him without a sliver of hesitation. “I don‘t actually know him that well. I encountered him by chance when my ship sank at sea. He was injured at the time, so I treated his wounds with whatever herbs | could find. It was later when his subordinates came for him that I got rescued and brought back here.”

What he didn‘t know was that Arielle had summarized the story. She omitted the details where they undressed and huddled up for warmth, as well as the truth that she saved Vinson‘s life.

Hearing her story, Henrick felt both disappointed yet pleased.

He was disappointed because he had hoped for some emotional entanglement between Arielle

and Vinson, but there were none.

At the same time, he was buzzing with joy that Arielle had aided the Vinson Nightshire. Because it meant Vinson owed Arielle‘s family a favor for her kindness.

Imagine that. A favor from the Nightshires!That experience alone is worth its weight in gold!

“Wonderful! That‘s great, Sannie! As expected of my daughter!” Henrick chortled.

He stared endearingly at her as if he was looking at the world‘s rarest gem.

Arielle put on an innocent and unknowing expression. She flashed a quick appreciative smile at this compliment, then resumed with her dinner.

The next day had arrived at the speed of light. All four of them departed Jadeborough and headed towards Norham.

For the journey, Arielle and Shandie sat beside one another in the backseat.

Shandie wore the Crown Coffee Academy‘s yellow team uniform. A soft and glamorous makeup was applied on her face, befitting her

aristocratic status.
