Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7 Unable To Forget Her

While Arielle was deep in thought, a few socialites approached her in a friendly manner.

“Ms. Moore, you look like a really nice person. Shall we be friends?”

“Ms. Moore, you have such a good figure. Do you mind sharing some tips to keep fit?”

“We should exchange contacts. Since you’re now back to Jadeborough, we should keep in touch more often.”

Those women appeared to look really friendly and seemed to be truly interested in befriending Arielle. However, Arielle could easily see through their real intentions.

However, she pretended to be ignorant and nodded with an innocent expression. “Sure… I would love to make some friends here.”

While the socialites gathered around Arielle and chatting with her enthusiastically, Shandie, who was upstairs, finally woke up.

She saw Cindy, who was holding her hand tightly, with a worried expression, while Henrick looked distracted as if he was not concerned about her at all.

Shandie’s resentment festered at once.

It’s all because of that b*tch, Arielle, that my dad doesn’t love me anymore!

Feeling aggrieved and frustrated, tears streamed down the woman’s face. “Mom… “

“Darling, you’ve finally woken up! Don’t cry, don’t cry…” Cindy comforted her daughter and could feel her heart aching.

After seeing that Shandie was fine, Henrick told the two women that he was going to head back downstairs.

“There are still a lot of guests downstairs. I’ll go and entertain them first,” the man said.

Before the mother-daughter pair could reply, Henrick had already turned around and left.

After the door was shut, Shandie could no longer contain her frustration and threw a pillow against the door.

“Mom! Just look at dad! I can’t stand it anymore! I want Arielle to disappear right away!”

Cindy was also burning with anger. It was supposed to be her darling daughter’s birthday party. However, Arielle had stolen all the attention instead.

Cindy took a deep inhale to calm herself down and tried to comfort her daughter instead, “Darling, let’s not rush it first. If something bad happens to her right after she returned to the country, your dad would definitely suspect us. As you know, your dad is really chauvinistic and hates it when people don’t listen to him. So, you have to be patient and don’t act rashly yeah!”

“So what should we do now?” Shandie covered her face with her hands and started bawling her eyes out. “My birthday party is ruined! Everyone will start making fun of me. Those women’s favorite activity is gossiping behind other people’s backs!”

Just when Cindy was about to reply, Janet knocked and entered the room. Holding an envelope in her hand, the nanny exclaimed in delight, “I have great news! Mrs. Southall, Ms. Shandie, there’s another joyous occasion to celebrate!”

Shandie was not interested in knowing what it was at all and looked away.

“There’s absolutely nothing to celebrate, everything is so screwed up! Today is the worst day ever in my entire life!”

Not to mention that Arielle was the center of attention throughout the party, and Shandie had even fainted in front of everyone! Who knew what those socialites would gossip about?

Meanwhile, Cindy remained composed and asked Janet, “What’s the good news about? What’s that in your hands?”

Janet walked towards them excitedly and explained, “I have just received a document for Ms. Shandie. It has the emblem of the Crown Coffee Academy on it.”

“Really?” Cindy immediately took over the envelope from the nanny.

After opening the envelope and looking at its contents, she tugged on Shandie’s hand excitedly and exclaimed, “Shannie, it’s really good news! You’ve come in first in the Socialite Coffee Competition!”

The Socialite Coffee Competition was a competition organized by the top baristas around the world. The winner of the competition would become the ambassador of Soir Coffee, which belonged to the Nightshire Group.

To be able to take part in the competition was already not easy. Cindy was over the moon that her daughter had emerged as the winner of the competition! To her, it was indeed a great honor.

Sharing her mother’s excitement, Shandie had also looked through the document a few times.

Apart from the usual congratulatory words, it was also stated on the document that she had to attend the awards ceremony held at the International Hotel at Norham the following week.
