Obsessed CEO Throws Himself At Me Chapter 1157 Read Online

Chapter 1157 Losing Confidence

While James had decided to use the secretly filmed content, Jason was staring at the call history on his
phone with a glum expression.

Even though the call lasted less than a minute, it infuriated him and negatively affected his mood.

Can it be that she isn’t playing hard to get and really doesn’t have feelings for me?

“Gracie,” he asked, “how many fans do I have now?”

“Around eighty million. Why?”

After a brief hesitation, Jason continued, “Do you think girls generally like me?”

Even though Gracie did not know why he asked her such a question, she replied honestly, “All the girls
that I know are your fans. All my relatives, from my mom to my niece in kindergarten, are also your
fans.”

Having heard her words, Jason finally regained his confidence.

“Perhaps, I was just overthinking.”

Gracie sensed that something was amiss, so she asked curiously, “What’s wrong? You’re a megastar,
so why do you doubt your own charm?”

A wry smile touched his lips. “Would you believe me if I told you that I have lost my confidence?”

Looking at Jason’s expression, she racked her brains and inquired, “Are you in a relationship? Or is it
one-sided?”



Jason reclined his chair with a darkening expression and covered his face with a sleep mask. Evidently,
he was no longer in the mood to talk.

The company doesn’t bar him from having a relationship. All he’s required to do is report it ahead of
time. However, why does it seem like Jason has not successfully pursued this girl?

Just when Gracie was tempted to delve deeper into the matter, she bit her tongue after sensing that he
was in a bad mood.

Back at Maureen’s kitchen, the line had not shortened in any way, even though they were approaching
closing time.

“Should we extend the operating hours?” Glenn asked Arielle.

She waved the bills she was holding. “We have made enough for today, so we will not extend our
operating hours, and neither will we do so in the future.”

In response, Glenn heaved a sigh of relief.

This old body of mine is already aching all over.

If it were any other employer, they would definitely insist on extending the business hours to rake in
more money. Consequently, Glenn counted his blessings that Arielle was the one in charge.

After sending Rayson to tell those waiting in line to return the next day, Arielle pulled Glenn aside and
remarked, “Chef Quigley, as you can see for yourself, business today was decent.”

Glenn nodded repeatedly. “Definitely beyond decent. Even though I’ve been working as a chef for
years, I have never seen a restaurant as busy as ours before.”

Even the restaurants that were wildly popular online paled in comparison.



After grunting in acknowledgment, Arielle added, “If word of mouth about the restaurant continues to
spread, I’m sure business will continue to pick up. Well, I was wondering if you want to stop working in
the kitchen.”

Stunned, he asked, “What do you mean by that? Are you firing me?”

The woman chuckled and explained, “How can that be? My intention is for you to step down from
cooking so that you can focus on training more chefs. Or else we won’t have enough hands in the
kitchen at all. Furthermore, I’m aiming to open more branches and certainly won’t be stopping at just
one. Who knows, we might actually get to a hundred branches. As a result, I want you to groom more
chefs in line with our planned expansion.”

After a momentary silence, Glenn nodded in agreement. “Sure!”

Just when they finished their discussion, Vinson’s voice rang out from behind.

“Mrs. Nightshire, is the kitchen still open?”

Arielle turned around in delight and was greeted by the sight of Vinson holding a large cake. Given how
exhausted he looked, it was apparent that he had rushed over from the airport.
