The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride

Molly changed her clothes and walked around the house a bit more. Once she got used to it, Ellie took her back to the bedroom to help her undress.

She reminded Molly, "Molly, tomorrow you'll meet a lot of business people. I'll introduce them to you one by one. Don't worry if you can't remember their faces. Just be sweet." Molly nodded. "Don't worry, Mom. I can talk. I'll greet everyone I meet."

Ellie patted Molly's back. "That will be great."

It was getting late. Ellie organized the clothes and put them in the suitcase. She put down the jewelry and said, "Put on a face mask and go to bed early. I'll do your makeup tomorrow." "Good night, Mom."

After seeing Ellie off, Molly went to take care of her skin.

Looking at the jewelry Ellie had prepared, she opened it and said, "Where's my ring?"

The next morning, Ellie changed her clothes and went to Molly's room to do her makeup.

Ellie casually tied up Molly's hair and lightly dusted her face with powder. "Close your eyes. I'll do your eyeliner, and we'll be done."

Molly obediently closed her eyes. Ellie didn't want Molly to wear heavy makeup, so she kept it light.

When they were done, Molly lifted her dress and walked down the stairs in high heels, one step at a time. She said, "Sebastian, come help me. I'm afraid I'll fall."

Sebastian had no choice but to get up and go to the stairs, helping Molly with her dress and holding her hand like a knight. "You attend one event, and the whole family is busy serving you." Molly asked, "Is that not allowed?"

Sebastian laughed. "Of course it is."

When they reached the first floor, Ellie appeared shortly after.

"Sebastian, later, you take Molly and me to the designated hotel. In the afternoon, have your dad pick us up."

The Chase family's Sebastian and Timothy were basically errand boys.

At 9 AM, Ellie took Molly to the venue.

"Ellie, you're finally here. Mr. Miller was talking about you." As soon as Ellie and Molly entered, someone immediately focused their attention on them. "Is this your niece?" someone asked Ellie, pointing at Molly. Ellie nodded. "My daughter, Molly."

Then Ellie introduced the person next to her to Molly, "This is Mr. Russell, the president of Apex Ventures Corporation."

Molly smiled sweetly and said, "Hello, Mr. Russell. Your company's cleansing mask is really good."

"Do you know what my company does?" Tony Russell asked in surprise.

Molly nodded. "My friends and I use your products, so of course, I know."

Ellie looked at Molly in surprise. This little smartie had done her homework last night.

Molly looked at Ellie and raised her eyebrows proudly.

The Olteran family's Vera was still sound asleep at noon, despite Cindy calling her twice.

Patrick said, "Cindy, stop calling her. She was on the phone with Molly last night, and who knows when she went to bed."

Molly and Vera had stayed up late looking at the guest list and doing some research. Vera woke up Patrick, who was next to her, "Honey, what does Vertex Global Holdings do? And the Powell family? Who is this person?" Ellie took Molly to meet Jesse Miller, who was hosting the banquet.

Jesse saw them from afar and came over to welcome them, "Ellie, it's an honor to have you here."

Ellie replied, "You're too kind, Mr. Miller. Let me introduce you to my daughter, Molly."

She turned to Molly and said, "This is Mr. Miller, the chairman of Vertex Innovations Group."

Molly bent slightly, "Hello, Mr. Miller. I've heard my mom talk about you at home. She says you're a respectable opponent."

Jesse pointed at Molly and laughed, "You are so sweet."

"Jesse, I'm serious. I'm not just being polite. My mom really has mentioned your work to my dad, saying it's something we should learn from."

Jesse laughed heartily, growing more fond of Molly.

Just then, Jesse's son Alan Miller came over. Jesse quickly waved him over, "Alan, come here."

Alan walked over, standing tall and looking sharp in his custom suit next to Jesse. "Dad, you called me?"

Jesse introduced Ellie and Molly, "This is Ellie, and this is her daughter, Molly."

Alan nodded to Ellie and greeted, "Nice to meet you, Ellie."

When he turned to greet Molly, he was momentarily stunned.

She seemed like a lamp, emitting a soft and beautiful light.

She exuded a kind of gentle charm.

"Molly, I'm Alan Miller."

Molly, suddenly being addressed so politely, felt a bit uncomfortable, "Nice to meet you."

Jesse noticed the amazement in Alan's eyes and had an idea, "Alan, stop entertaining guests and take Molly around."

Molly immediately looked at Ellie, who also had something to do, and said, "Go ahead. There are many friends your age over there. You might even meet some classmates." Alan took Molly away.

Alan's amazement was only momentary; he quickly hid it. "Molly, did you have breakfast this morning?"

Molly, being straightforward, said, "Yes, my brother was worried I'd be hungry, so he made me eat a sandwich before letting me leave." Alan smiled, his eyes always on Molly, "How old are you?"

"21, and you?"

"26. I just got my PhD abroad and returned home to take over the family business. Are you studying in the US or abroad?"

Molly didn't envy the PhD at all, and the admiration Alan hoped to see in her eyes wasn't there.

Molly replied, "I'm a sophomore at Evergreen University."

Alan asked, "What are you studying?"

"Economics."

Alan said excitedly, "Then we can have common topics to talk about. I have a PhD in economics. You can ask me if you have any questions." Molly thought of her business tycoon friend Patrick and decided not to mention it to outsiders.

So she casually said, "Sure."

Alan was good at conversation, and soon, he and Molly were chatting away.

He guided Molly to talk about many things, "I've heard of Sebastian. He's caught many economic criminals and has made many achievements." Molly nodded proudly. "Yes, no criminal can escape Sebastian's grasp."

Alan asked, "How old is Sebastian?"

Molly replied, "He's also 26, the same age as you. My brother has been working for several years."

"But he's not as good at talking as you are. He only criticizes me for messing things up. But whenever I get into trouble, he's the first person I call. Sebastian gets so mad at me sometimes, but he can't do anything about it." Whenever Molly talked about Sebastian, she had a lot to say, as if she wanted everyone to know how amazing he was.

Alan smiled. "I'd like to meet him someday."

Molly shook her head and said, "Better not, Alan. Businessmen don't usually have a good outcome when they meet Sebastian. You should hope you never have to know him."

Alan laughed out loud at Molly's words. "You have a point, but we could still be friends."
