Chapter 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

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

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.
