Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me novel Chapter 1443

Chapter 1443 Insolence

However, her insecurity was fleeting.

This is the first time anybody has dared speak to me like this. How presumptuous! The queen was about to explode with fury as she pointed a shaking finger at Arielle. “You arrogant little b*tch. Who do you think you are to speak to me like that?”

Arielle sneered at the sight of the queen’s austere features that contorted from her anger. “Is my gruff manner of speaking too much for your delicate palate? Let me return to Chanaea, then. I don’t care much for your country.”

Her impertinence took the queen’s breath away.

“What are you still standing there for?” the queen shrieked at her men. “Take him away!”

The guards started at once for Vinson, who caught Arielle’s eye and nodded grimly as an unspoken understanding passed between them. Just as the guards were about to lunge, Aaron burst through the doors.

“Stop!” he roared. The guards froze at the sound of his voice. Aaron glanced at Arielle before walking to the queen’s side. “Mother,” he asked sullenly, “what are you trying to do?”

“This peasant dared raise a finger against you,” the queen snapped at her son for his gallantry. “As a punishment befitting the crime under our laws, I’m having him arrested and put in jail.”

Aaron agreed with his mother. “It’s indeed a crime to beat the prince in his own country, Ari,” he said as he turned to look at Arielle. “Nobody in Turlen is above the law.”

In truth, Aaron had an ulterior motive. Having intensely disliked the bodyguard from the moment he saw him, Aaron had planned to replace him just so that he could not remain by Arielle’s side.

She knows that I would never have the heart to put her in jail. She’s saying these things just to hurt me further.

“It feels as though you are putting the screws on me instead. You want your mother to put him in jail despite knowing that he acted on my orders. If you are dissatisfied with my presence, you can send me back to Chanaea. I’ve had enough of Turlen.”

Arielle took a small pause before continuing, “If you’re going to arrest him by force, I promise you that not a single one of you will leave this palace alive. Don’t test me.”

If it were not due to the fact that she was looking for her biological father, Arielle would have attacked Aaron back when he kidnapped her adoptive parents in Lightspring.

Disregarding most of what Arielle said, the only part that had caused a stab-like pain in his heart was her disdain for remaining in Turlen. Has nothing in Turlen captured her heart at all?
