Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me

Chapter 8 A Venomous Snake

Shandie’s mood improved greatly after knowing that she was the winner of the Socialite Coffee Competition. After tidying up her appearance, she went downstairs with Cindy again.

Once they reached downstairs, Shandie started looking all around for Vinson but the man was nowhere to be seen.

Just then, she saw another socialite whom she was on friendly terms with and asked, “Did you see Mr. Nightshire?”

“Mr. Nightshire has left long ago.”

“Did he say anything before he left?” Shandie pressed on.

The socialite gave it some thought and replied, “He kept talking to your sister. There were bodyguards around him and I couldn’t hear their conversation, but they did not look too happy.”

“Did not look happy?” Shandie’s face lit up and continued asking, “What do you mean by that?”

“I’m not sure. In the end, Mr. Nightshire just walked away after saying something. Your sister chased after him, wanting to continue the conversation, but was stopped by his bodyguards.”

“That means she and Mr. Nightshire are not that close after all,” Shandie analyzed.

The socialite nodded and replied, “Well, of course, that’s the case. No matter how pretty your sister is, she’s still a country bumpkin. Given the status of the Nightshire family, how is it possible for a girl from the countryside to have any connections with them? Shannie, don’t be discouraged yeah? You’re definitely the only one in the whole of Jadeborough who is good enough for Mr. Nightshire!”

Happy to hear that, Shandie raised her brows and said, “I like you very much! I’ll tell my dad to give your family more businesses.”

“That’s wonderful! Thanks Shannie…”

While the two women were chatting away, Shandie suddenly heard a few other socialites mocking her from a distance away. “I can’t believe Shandie even has the cheek to come downstairs! She even fainted after seeing how gorgeous her sister was… “

“Exactly! If I were her, I would hide at home for at least three years and only come out when everyone forgets about the incident!”

Fuming, Shandie was just about to argue with that group of women before she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
