Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me novel Chapter 1780

Chapter 1780 A Slap

While negotiating with the general the other day, I actually did name another term. And that’s for him to send me back after he recovers and his wife conceives. Alas, he gave me an outright refusal right there and then.

He told me he could let me stay and I’d want for nothing, but he couldn’t let me leave. Then, he walked away after uttering those words. Maybe I can try to talk to Lena’s mother instead. However, I’ll need to think carefully about how to cross paths with her.

Arielle ruffled Lena’s curly hair and said with a smile, “After I cure your father and your mother gives you a baby brother, she won’t cry anymore.”

“Okay!” Lena nodded happily, then looked at Arielle and added, “I’ll take you to go and meet Mommy. She’s very gentle and kind, and you’ll definitely like her after meeting her.”

Since Arielle had decided to approach Lena’s mother, the proposal fit right into what the former had in mind.

“Sure. I’ll go with you to meet your mommy, then.”

Seeing that Arielle agreed, Lena led her back home cheerfully.

“I don’t drink coffee. Who told you to pour me some?” After they heard those words, a loud crash rang out.

The expression on Lena’s face shifted. Then, she let go of Arielle’s hand and hurried into the living room. Although Arielle knew it was not really the right time for her to go in, she still decided to do so after pondering for a while.

She reasoned that under such extreme circumstances, she could not pass up on any opportunity to glean information.

At that moment, Lena was bristling with anger as she stood protectively before a woman with reddened eyes. The woman was Abigail, Lena’s mother. Lena’s eyes were wide as she glared at Anna, who was standing opposite her.

She turned to the younger girl angrily and chided, “How can you talk to Anna like that? Apologize to her at once.”

“No way. Why should I apologize to her? She’s clearly the one at fault. Mommy, she did something wrong first. Why am I always the one who has to apologize?” Lena asked, looking at Abigail sadly.

“Because she’s your elder sister!”

“So what if she is? What’s so great about that? Does being an elder sister mean she can do whatever she wants? I don’t want to apologize. She’s no elder sister. I certainly don’t want her as my sister,” Lena said stubbornly, gazing at Abigail with red-rimmed eyes.

The moment she said that, a slap landed on her cheek.
