Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 812
“Of course, I‘m not!” blurted Arielle. “I‘ve never idolized anyone.”
“Then why does he insist that you are?”
“Beats me,” she replied, looking quite perplexed. “I don‘t even know him.”
Sasha hooked her arm around Blake‘s. “All right. Crisis averted. Time for us to disappear.”
“Yeah, okay,” said Blake as he waved toward Arielle. “Boss said that we are to stay close for your protection, but also to stay out of sight. So, on that note, we shall make ourselves scarce.”
With that, he and Sasha bolted off.
Arielle was rendered speechless while she watched the duo disappear from view. She did not even have time to say anything else.
Those two had a lot in common with the strange man who preceded them—popping out of nowhere before vanishing. She had been quite baffled by the entire encounter, to say the least.
Arielle shook her head and paid no more heed to them.
She casually tossed the name card that Jason gave her into the bin before striding toward the library ahead where the archive was.
On the other side, Jason made a mad dash and dove
inside the MPV parked in front of the gates to Jadeborough University.
The removal of his mask caused Gracie to exclaim aloud, “Your face!”
“Don‘t worry about it. It‘s just a scratch.” Jason waved her off nonchalantly.
Seeing Arielle in broad daylight that day left him even more astonished than he was previously as she possessed a bare face that was unparalleled across the entire entertainment industry.
Even though Jason did not mind the ding to his appearance, Gracie next to him was practically going bonkers.
“Who‘s the one who did this to you? You’ve still got another interview to do tomorrow! This won’t do. I‘m going to have to get the police right away!”
“No. Don‘t!” said Jason as he snatched the phone from his manager‘s hand. “No one hit me. I fell, that‘s all.”
“That‘s because…” Jason leaned forward with a lifted chin. “She‘s playing hard to get.”
He would never believe that a girl of Arielle‘s age did not know of a popular idol like him.
He reckoned that feigning ignorance and getting violent must be all part of a stunt to leave a lasting impression on him.
Beside him, Gracie regarded Jason quizzically. She had a gut feeling that the truth may be further from what
Jason described.
“Got it.” Jason waved her off. “Let‘s get a move on. I‘ve got to ice my face and then study the script.”
Seeing how diligent Jason was, which a rare sight in itself, Gracie probed no further and instructed the chauffeur to drive.
As this was happening, Wendy and Aaron‘s tour had brought them to the school‘s library.
