Chapter 306
Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire
Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 306 âI hadnât intended to tell her the news either. I knew it would only break her heart. However, sheâd caught wind about it somehow, and sheâs now insisting that I go and get her. Since youâre not occupied with anything here and havenât seen your grandmother for years, I suggest you come along with me,â
stated Henrick firmly.
Knowing she did not really have the option of saying no, Arielle readily agreed, âSure! Just give me a moment to get dressed.â
âAll right. Iâll wait for you downstairs. You might want to pack another set of clothes to bring along. The place is rather far away, and weâre most likely staying overnight there.â
âGot it.â Arielle nodded and watched as Henrick left her room.
Once she was certain he had gone far enough, she reopened the firewallâs page.
It indicated that nobody had hacked into her computer throughout that day.
Looks like whoever it is seems to have no problem keeping his cool, or⦠has he forgotten about me?
After some thought, she figured the former possibility was more likely.
Following that, she added another layer of security to the firewall and connected the settings to her phone before starting to pack her things.
By the time she arrived downstairs, Henrick was already quite fed up with waiting. He frowned at her, asking snappishly, âWhat took you so long?â
Arielle unzipped her backpack and smiled as she showed him the contents. âI packed more stuff since weâre spending the night there.â
With a glance, Henrick saw a messy assortment of girlish objects in the bag. It really did look like a bag packed by a young girl to bring for a vacation.
If it had been Shandie, he would definitely have reprimanded her, but it was Arielle.
His expression softened the instant he saw the chaotic jumble of stuff in her bag. In a way, the more childish and girlish she acted, the more relieved he felt, as it would mean she was easier to control as well.
For a moment, he seriously wondered if his wariness toward the girl was completely unfounded.
After all, no matter how smart she was, it did not change the fact that she was only a girl who had grown up in the countryside and lost her memory.
Averting his gaze, he stated, âLetâs go, then. We have to arrive before it gets dark or itâll be too hard to drive.â
âYes, Dad.â Arielle did not waste another minute but entered the car at once.
The car was filled with an unusual silence as they drove toward their destination.
Ding! Arielleâs cell phone chimed suddenly.
Tapping into the notification, she saw a brief message from Vinson: Taking off soon.
After a momentâs thought, she replied just as briefly: Have a safe journey.
Right after she sent it, Henrick asked from her left, âWho was that?â
âVinson. Heâs traveling to Epea for a business trip,â she answered honestly.
Upon hearing that, Henrick immediately furrowed his brows. âVinsonâs going on a business trip? Why didnât he bring you along, then? Did he even invite you?â
Arielle shook her head. âNo. Something urgent popped up, so he left in a hurry.â.
âIn the future, always follow your husband if heâs going away for business trips,â Henrick gritted out disapprovingly. âHeâs young, rich, and important. Do you have any idea how many women are trying to climb their way into his bed? And the myriad of methods they would use to succeed in doing that?
Besides, heâs just an ordinary man. Thereâs no way he would be able to resist that sort of temptation.
Youâve got to watch out for yourself, okay?â
Despite feeling rather uncomfortable at his words, Arielle suppressed her displeasure and smiled at him. âSure, Dad.â
