Chapter 601Chapter 601
Once the party started, Molly followed Sean every inch of the way, since she did not know where else to go.
Many people cast their eyes toward the two of them from time to time. Some women who intended to talk to Sean were hesitant
to go forward because of Molly. As this went on for a long time, everyone had formed a perception inside their heads: they must
be a couple.
The woman was following Sean so closely that with a little use of the brain, one could figure out what this meant. It was to tell
people like them not to make a fool of themselves, and that Sean was taken. Everyone in the ballroom was a prominent figure,
and no matter how eager they were, no one would not approach Sean, lest people would talk about them behind their backs after
they left the hotel. As ladies of prominent families, they had dignities to take care of.
As slow-witted as Molly was, she could already tell how people were looking at her just by looking at their faces, she leaned
close to Sean and said, "Looks like I'm 'effective'?" She, as a shield, came in handy.
Molly sounded so calm that Sean could not even tell what she really meant. 'Is she upset or is there
something wrong with her?' he thought. Sean looked at her with his head tilted, as he softly and
nervously asked, "You mind?" He did mean to bring her out as a shield, but not entirely. He also wanted
his family to see his determination and know that he was serious.
Molly raised an eyebrow, feigning indifference, and rhetorically asked, "Would you mind if it was you?"
Sean was silent and distraught, as he did not know how to answer her.
Molly could not hold back and burst out in laughter. Then, she patted his shoulder affectionately to
reassure him. "It's okay." she never thought that even the CEO of Anderson Corporation would be
fooled one day. She honestly thought that he was so handsome that even his momentary loss of
composure was making her soften her heart up, and she wanted to coax him."Really?" Sean patiently asked as he regained his composure.
"Yeah. I don't mind." Molly replied affirmatively. In fact, she even felt a little happy inside. 'This is
something that only a proper girlfriend would do, right?'
"That would be good."
They talked and laughed as they went, so much so that many ladies looked at them and felt sorry for themselves. They had
dressed up so meticulously, hoping to marry into a rich family, but all their efforts were in vain. They had gained nothing by doing
that.
After a while, Molly felt soreness in her ankle. Her feet could not endure standing and walk in high heels for too long, she smiled
at Sean and said, "I'm going to take a break. I'm a little tired from all the walking."
"Okay, I will come to you later." Sean swept a glance at the soles of her feet. It hurt just from looking at the pair of exquisite and
beautiful high heels. He watched Molly go to the lounge area and then asked Tony to push him around. Even if Sean was now
alone, those women had lost their courage to approach him.
As soon as Molly came to the lounge area, several young ladies, who were chatting there, stopped talking and watched her sit
down. 'Is she Sean's girlfriend?' They shot a knowing look at each other and looked for an excuse to gossip about how Molly had
captured Sean. But, before they could do it, someone else beat them to the punch.
