“You, where are you?” Annabelle asked without thinking.
Alistair was stunned momentarily and he answered, “right downstairs!”
“……”
And so, Annabelle walked towards the balcony and looked down. She saw the man’s car and she was
surprised. She hadn’t thought he would be there.
“It’s getting late now…”
“Come out here!”
“Huh?!” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“Come out now!” Alistair said.
When Annabelle heard him, she was taken by surprised, “it’s already very late!”
“Do you want to come down or do you want me to get up? Choose one!” Alistair said.
Did she even have a choice?
“Wait right there, I’ll go down now!” After that, Annabelle hung up the call in frustration. She changed
and outfit and walked downstairs.
When she got down, Alistair’s car was parked right in front. She hesitated a moment but went forward.
Alistair opened the car door.
“Get in!”
“Huh?!”
“Get in the car!” Alistair ordered.
When Annabelle saw Alistair’s expression, she had no other choice but to get in the car.
It was a little chilly in the night and it felt much better after closing the car door. However, the
atmosphere in the small compartment in the car was just awkward.
“President Mu, why are you looking for me so late in the night? Anything happened?” Annabelle asked
but she was looking in front of the car.
Alistair turned his head over and stared at Annabelle, “can’t I find you if nothing happened?”
“……”
Why was she feeling such frustration when she was speaking with Alistair?
“Not that you can’t, but it is already so late. Others might misunderstand if they see us!” Annabelle
answered.
“Misunderstand? Who?” Alistair asked back, “Song Jing?”
Once Annabelle heard the name, she frowned, “I am referring to everyone else!”
“Since when you, Annabelle cared about things like that!?” Alistair asked back.
Annabelle, “since when I didn’t care…?”
“When you married me!” Alistair enunciated.
“……”
The woman came to a conclusion that it was just frustrating to speak with Alistair. Especially in the
night, she was just speechless towards him.
“You didn’t even care about your own reputation to marry me, and now you are afraid that others might
misunderstood?” When Alistair said that, he drew in closer. His deep gaze was fixed on Annabelle’s fair
face.
Annabelle frowned and moved backwards. She couldn’t help but said, “I didn’t have a choice back
then!”
“You didn’t have a choice?” When Alistair heard that, his eyebrows knitted closely, “are you telling me
that if you have a choice back then, you wouldn’t be marrying me?!”
Annabelle didn’t even need a split second to come up with her answer, “Yes!” She nodded.
“……”
Although the man knew that it was just a political marriage three years ago and both of them weren’t
willing, now that he heard Annabelle saying that so unhesitantly, he was still taken aback and greatly
infuriated.
“Annabelle!!!” Alistair roared at her.
Annabelle simply looked at Alistair calmly, “isn’t that the truth? If you had the choice, you wouldn’t be
marrying me too!” Annabelle looked at Alistair and enunciated.
If it weren’t for Zen that forced him to marry, the man wouldn’t agree to the marriage.
Annabelle’s words made Alistair pondered.
She was right.
If he had the choice, he would definitely not marry her…
But now…
Alistair simply stared at Annabelle and he was speechless for some time.
At that time, Annabelle looked at Alistair and said, “president Mu, actually I am here because I want to
talk to you too!”
