Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 1089

Chapter 1089 Who Did This

Arielle’s phone rang suddenly.

It was Vinson.

“Sorry.” She turned to Selena and continued, “I’ve to take this call.”

Smiling, Selena waved her hand and stated, “I shall stop taking up your time. Since you haven’t visited the university for such a long time, you should take a walk around. I’ll head back and prepare for the student’s thesis defense the day after tomorrow.”

“Okay, sure.”

After Serena left, Arielle answered the phone. “Hello, Darling.”

Her voice was relaxed and soft. Hearing that, Vinson suddenly had the urge to fly from Horington to Lightspring.

“You’re playing with fire.” He gulped, and his voice was hoarse.

Chuckling, she responded, “Didn’t you ask me to call you that? Fine. I won’t call you darling anymore.”

“Don’t.” He hurriedly stopped her. “I like you calling me that.”

Lowering her head, she smiled faintly. “If I went bald, would you still love me?”

Despite being startled by her question, he still replied in a low voice, “Even if you’re bald, you’re still my precious baby.”

“Tsk.” Arielle pouted. Only a fool would believe that!

Nonetheless, he could guess why she asked that. “The people from the lab asked you to join them?”

Surprised, she queried, “How do you know?”

“Back then, they asked me to join them too.”

Abruptly, Arielle remembered that Vinson was also one of the four people who obtained full marks in the final exam and came to a realization.

After a short moment of silence, she uttered, “Actually, I’m a little tempted. Joining the lab is equivalent to participating in various research that are classified as top secrets. Perhaps, I can learn more about Turlen from there.”

Upon hearing the word Turlen, Vinson’s tone became serious.

“Did you manage to find anything?”

“Yes.” Arielle nodded. When she realized that he could not see it on the other end of the phone, she said, “Ms. Selena told me that the man in the photo, who’s probably my biological father, graduated from Maxwell University. After graduating, the university made an exception and let him teach for a year. It was when he went to Jadeborough University for exchange learning that he knew my mother.”

“What happened after that?”

“He disappeared.”

“I see.” Obviously, Vinson was not surprised by the answer.

He paused for a while before adding, “You suspect that he’s from Turlen because only people from Turlen need to hide their identities and can disappear from the world.”

“Yes.” Arielle bit her lip and stated, “Ms. Selena said that the current principal was his mentor and should know something. However, the principal is recuperating in the hospital and won’t see anyone. So, I can only wait at the university.”

“I’ll wait with you after I finish dealing with the matters here.”

Arielle did not reject him and inquired, “You just arrived in Horington?”

“Yeah. I just got off the plane. Now, I’m heading to the branch office by car.”

“Be mindful of your health and take care. Work is never as important as your health.”

Smiling bitterly, Vinson enunciated, “As expected, great minds think alike. I wanted to say the same thing as well. Sannie, I know that revenge is very important to you, but to me, the most important thing is your safety.”

“Don’t worry. I’m safe at Maxwell University.”

Having said that, she glanced at her watch and commented, “It’s almost dinner time here. I’ll go for dinner with Jared and Trisha. You can get back to work.”

“All right. I’ll finish my work swiftly so that I can meet you early.” Since he had a lot of things to deal with, he did not say much, only asking Arielle to call him darling before hanging up.

After hanging up, Arielle called Jared.

“Where are you?” she asked.

On the other end of the phone, Jared sounded excited. “I’m in the shopping mall. There are many tech products made by the students from Maxwell University. Boss, if I’m admitted, I want to major in artificial intelligence studies!”

Curling her lips, she remarked, “That’s a great major. I’ve studied it for a few months back then. If you can pass the exam, I’ll introduce you to the best professor in this field, and you can learn from him.”

“Boss, you’re amazing!”

“I bet you’re tired after being busy for the whole day. Let me take you and Trisha out for dinner.”

“Okay. I’m on my way to the girl’s dorm. Let’s meet at the entrance.”

After the call ended, Arielle made her way toward the girls’ dorm.

The cafeteria was not far from the girls’ dorm. Within five minutes, she was already standing downstairs of the dorm.

When she arrived, her phone had run out of battery, so she could not contact Trisha. Coincidentally, she saw the room allocation table posted at the entrance.

As soon as she saw that Trisha and Wendy were assigned to the same room, she immediately furrowed her brows.

Staying in the same room as Wendy must be difficult for Trisha as she has such a gentle personality. Furthermore, Wendy likes to bully those who are weaker than her. I’m afraid that something might happen in these three days. After charging my phone, I should call Ms. Selena and ask her to arrange a single room for Trisha.

After making the decision, Arielle came to the door of Trisha’s room according to the room number written on the table.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

She reached out to knock on the door and did not speak.

While she was on the way to the dorm, she passed by a store.

They were selling materials for sand painting, so she bought some to surprise Trisha.

Soon, Trisha’s voice came from inside the room. “Coming.”

A few seconds later, the door opened from the inside.

Arielle averted her gaze toward Trisha with a smile on her face. The moment she saw Trisha’s swollen face, her expression turned grim, giving off an intimidating aura.

At the same time, the bag containing colorful sand and stones in her hand fell to the ground. Consequently, the glimmering sand scattered all over the floor.

The atmosphere was so tense that Trisha did not dare to breathe.

Never had she expected that the person who knocked on the door was Arielle.

She was momentarily stunned, and when she regained her senses, she immediately reached out to close the door.

Bang! Just then, Arielle raised her hand and slammed the door, stopping Trisha from closing it.

Obviously, the latter was no match for her.

No matter how hard Trisha tried, she could not close the door.

Realizing that her strength was incomparable with Arielle, she gave up on closing the door and covered her face with her hands.

Undoubtedly, that action of hers was pointless, for Arielle had seen every wound on her face.

“Tell me. Who did this?” Arielle’s voice was colder than the expression on her face.

Knowing that she could no longer hide it, Trisha put down her hand and said, “No one did this. I injured myself while I was making the bed. The bedframe fell, and I was—”

“Trisha,” interrupted Arielle. “Stop lying. The wounds on your face weren’t caused by the bedframe.”
