My Killing President

Chapter 637 Money

The moment Annabelle heard her name, she recalled her conversation with Belle and she became

quiet.

"Do you think I am a failure? A useless man?" Ralphy asked.

Annabelle raised her gaze and looked at him, "No, because I know you aren't that kind of person!"

"But Belle's incident was real!" Ralphy said. He didn't know why he was telling Annabelle that. Maybe

subconsciously he had already known that the two of them were an impossibility.

Annabelle nodded, "I know!"

"You know?" Ralphy looked at Annabelle and he seemed surprised.

"I met her!"

Ralphy was even more shocked. He looked at Annabelle and didn't know what to say.

"Then… Did she tell you anything…?" Ralphy asked. The man was feeling a very complicated feeling,

nervous and conflicted, fearful yet hopeful.

He wanted to know how Annabelle would react after finding out everything.

He didn't know that Annabelle had known about his feelings all the time. She was simply pretending not

to know.

"Brother, Renee is a good woman. She isn't the same as Belle. I believe that if you would just accept

her with an open heart, everything will be different!" Annabelle said. She did not answer him directly.

"She is indeed a good woman. But I don't love her!" How could he be happy if they didn't have love?"

"Brother, love is built on knowing each other. If you are willing to discover and understand Renee, you

will discover her goodness. I believe as long as you are willing to be open-minded and willfully

understand her, the two of you will be happy!" Annabelle said.

Happy?

Hoho…

Ralphy had one hand on the steering wheel. When he heard that, he smiled bitterly.

"What if I say I won't? I…"

"Bro…"

At that time, Annabelle's phone rang.

When Annabelle saw the number, she was stunned.

Ralphy saw the number as well and he averted his gaze.

Annabelle pondered for a while and said, "Bro, it's getting late now. Let's talk again some other day. I

should go home first!"

Ralphy nodded.

Annabelle opened the car door and walked down. After that, she answered her phone while walking.

Ralphy sat in his car and looked at Annabelle's back. After that, he punched his steering wheel

furiously.

Alistair, everything was because of you!!!

On the other side.

Annabelle answered her phone and walked into the lift.

"Where are you?" Alistair asked directly.

"I just got in the lobby of our apartment, entering the lift soon!"

"Coby said he didn't pick you up." Alistair said. When he said that, he had a good guess already.

Annabelle didn't hide from him and she answered, "Brother was the one that sent me home."

Although she had a hunch that Alistair knew something, she didn't want to hide anything from him.

Alistair was silent for a while. After that, he said, "I will go back the day after tomorrow!"

"Alistair…"

"Hmm?"

"I love you!"

Right after she walked into the lift, she said that before the lift door closes.

Alistair was tensed. But the moment he heard Annabelle saying that, he relaxed a little.

"I love you too!" He spoke to the phone.

Annabelle chuckled, "I will wait for you at home!"

"Okay!"

"Are you in yet?" Right after he said that, the lift's doors opened.

Annabelle said smilingly, "At the doorstep already!"

"I want to see you, switch to video call!"

"Okay, right away!" After saying that, Annabelle hung up with a smile. She opened the door and walked

inside.

After that, she brought out her laptop and a glass of drink. She went to the living room and opened her

laptop. In a few short moment, Alistair's gorgeous face appeared on the screen.

Annabelle sat on the carpet. When she saw him, she smiled and greeted him cheerfully, "Hi, Mr. Mu!"

Alistair answered, "You seemed pretty relaxed all by yourself!"

"With you not around, I will just enjoy myself!"

"Did you miss me?"

Annabelle nodded.

Alistair looked at her and smiled.

He stretched out his hand and touched the screen, "What should I do, I want to kiss you so much, I

want to touch you…"

Annabelle, "Mr. Mu… How does it feel to molest a computer?"

"Frustrating!"

Annabelle smiled, "How was work?"

"I still need two days, I will go back as soon as possible!"

Annabelle nodded. The two of them made a video call until late in the night before going to bed.

"All right, it's so late already, hurry and get some rest!"

"Yeah!" Annabelle nodded, "You too!"

"Wait for me to come home!"

Annabelle nodded.

After they ended the video call, Annabelle went to brush her teeth and take a shower. After that, she

lied in her bed. Although Alistair wasn't by her side, that temporary separation made their feelings

stronger.

Annabelle hugged her blanket and she fell asleep soon.

On the other side.

After Ralphy came back and went into his bedroom, he removed his jacket and threw it to a side.

At that time, Renee An came out from the shower room and saw him, "You're back!"

When Ralphy heard Renee An, he raised his gaze to see her and then looked away, "Yeah."

When Renee An saw that the man was quiet, she walked closer to him and asked, "Are you all right,

did anything happen?"

When Ralphy heard Renee An, he raised his gaze and looked at her, "Nothing!" After that, he got up, "I

just recalled that I still have some work to do. You should rest first!" After saying that, he turned around

and left.

"Where are you going?" Renee An asked.

"To the study room, I still have some work left to do!"

"But…" The words that she wanted to say was stuck in her throat. After all, the woman shouldn't be the

one to say that out.

Didn't he know? They didn't do it during their wedding night. And now, he wanted to go work…

When Renee An saw Ralphy walking out, she frowned. She couldn't deny that she felt dejected.

However, she reminded herself, that she was the one that chose this man and she must be held

responsible for her decision.

She lied on the bed and flipped around but she just couldn't fall asleep. Finally, she decided to get up

and went out her room.

She brought a glass of milk and went to Ralphy's study room.

After knocking on the door, Renee An opened the door softly and walked inside. Ralphy was sitting

there and looking at his computer. The moment he saw Renee An walking inside, he hurriedly closed

the picture window in his computer.

After that, he looked at Renee An and asked, "Why are you here?"

"It's late now and I want to bring you a glass of milk!"

"Thank you!"

"It's so late already. You should go get some rest. I will go back to the room after I finish with this!"

Ralphy said.

And so, everything that Renee An wanted to say was stuck in her throat. She looked at Ralphy and

nodded in disappointment, "All right, don't stay up too late!"

"Okay!"

After that, she lowered the glass of milk on his desk. They didn't even speak more than ten sentences

and Renee An exited his room.

After getting back to their room, she lied down on the bed. Although she felt very uncomfortable and

dejected, she kept telling herself at Ralphy was a busy and successful businessman. She must support

her husband!

As she thought about that, she felt more comfortable. She fell asleep eventually.

When she woke up the next day, she saw traces of the man sleeping next to her. However, she didn't

see him. She was stunned for a while and walked out. After that, she saw Ralphy eating breakfast

downstairs.

The man sat there, having his breakfast while reading the newspaper. His blue top looked as if it was

custom made, elegant and handsome. Just from a simple back view and he could make others want to

see more of him.

She didn't know what time he came back last night, nor what time he woke up in the morning.

Renee An stood upstairs and looked at Ralphy's back view. She pouted her lips and turned around to

get changed in her room. After that, she went downstairs.

After she was done cleaning herself, she walked downstairs.

"You are up!" When Ralphy heard her, he simply raised an eyebrow to look at her. After that, he

lowered his head and continued to read the newspaper in his hand.

"Yeah, why didn't you wake me up when you woke up?"

"I saw that you were sleeping so soundly and I didn't want to interrupt you. Let's eat breakfast!" Ralphy

said.

"Where are dad and mum?"

"They went to attend a friend's gathering!"

When Renee An heard that, she nodded. Auntie Li brought her breakfast and she started to eat.

At that time, Ralphy folded the newspaper and stood up, "I am done. I shall go to the company first!"

She just sat down and he wanted to leave?

When she saw Ralphy stood up and walked towards the door, she couldn't hold back anymore and

called out to him, "Ralphy!"

When Ralphy heard her, he turned his head back, "What's wrong? Is anything the matter?" The man's

gaze and tone did not sound like he was talking to his wife, but to a most ordinary friend.

"You… Do you mind to come home earlier tonight?" Renee An said.

"Is anything the matter?" He asked frowningly.

Renee An was stunned for a moment. After that, she shook her head, "No…"

Ralphy caught on suddenly and he was stunned as well. The man said, "If I am not busy, I will try to

come home earlier!"

When Renee An heard that, a smile blossomed on her face, "All right, I'll wait for you!"

Ralphy did not reply and simply walked out the door.

Renee An's mood became good right away and even her breakfast tasted better.

Just a little bit of attention and she would be elated.

She didn't know that Ralphy was simply saying that perfunctorily…

Early in the morning, Annabelle received a call.

Dorie was admitted into the hospital. Annabelle didn't say anything and rushed to the hospital.

In the ward.

Right after Annabelle walked inside, she saw Dorie sitting on her bed. The woman was biting her lips

and she looked pale.

"Dorie, what happened to you? Why is your face so pale?"

"I'm fine, don't worry about me!" Dorie said.

"How can I not worry? Why are you admitted so suddenly?"

"Miss Yang do not have any problem. She simply overexerted herself and was a little anemic!" The

nurse said.

Anemia?

Annabelle glanced over at Dorie as she sat on the bed. When she heard the nurse, her pale and

nervous face looked restful, "You had been burning the candle on both ends. It is just a matter of time

before you overwork yourself or get into other issues like anemia!"

"I didn't want it too, but it was just too busy at the shop, they couldn't cope!" Dorie said.

Annabelle looked around and asked, "What about Su?"

"He has something going on and he isn't around today!"

Right after she said that, they saw a person hurried inside.

The moment Annabelle and Dorie saw Su, they were stunned.

"How are you feeling?" Su looked at Dorie and asked.

"I'm fine, wasn't you out doing something?" Dorie looked at Su and asked.

"It was An-an that called me!"

"Oh, I'm fine!"

"She had overworked herself and a little anemic. That's why she fainted!" Annabelle said.

At that time, Su noticed Annabelle standing by their side. He looked at her and nodded.

"Su, is this how you take care of Dorie?" Annabelle asked. She wasn't demanding an answer, nor

rebuking the man. She was simply joking.

She believed that Su was more worried about the woman than her.

"I hadn't been taking good care of her!"

"Therefore after this, no matter what she says, you must force her to rest amply!" Annabelle said.

"But this is the busiest period for the shop!"

"I will be in the shop. Don't worry about it too much. As for your company, apply for a few days leave!"

Su said.

"No!" Dorie refused right away, "If I take leaves, all of my incentives this month will be gone!"

"How much is it?"

"Two thousand dollars!"

At that time, Su took out his phone and tapped on it. A minute later, he kept his phone back into his

pocket, "I have transferred ten thousand dollars into your account. Therefore, from now onwards, you

must listen to me!"

What?

Did they heard the man wrongly?

"You, you transferred money to me?"

As Dorie said that, she took up her phone to check her balance. After that, she saw a text notification of

a ten thousand dollar credit. She was stunned.

"You, you… Why do you have so much money?"

"You don't have to care about that. And from now onwards, you must rest!" After saying that, the man

snatched Dorie's phone from her hand and confiscated it.

"I…"

When Dorie looked at Su, he was making an uncompromising expression. After that, Dorie muttered

softly, "Alright alright, I will take a leave then. But I will not be returning that ten thousand dollars to

you!"

When Annabelle looked at them, she smiled and her eyes were a crescent.

That was probably the best for Dorie.

After staying in the hospital for another half an hour, Annabelle wanted to leave.

"All right, you should take a good rest and I will leave now!"

Dorie was having an apple and she answered, "Okay, I'm fine. I will be discharged this afternoon!"

"Take a good rest!"

Dorie nodded, "Don't worry, everything's fine!"

At that time, Annabelle looked at Su and they exchanged thoughts via eye gesture. After that, Su said,

"Rest assured. From now onwards, I will keep her in check twenty-four seven!"

Annabelle smiled and nodded, "If that's the case, I can be restful. See you guys!"

Su nodded.

Dorie waved her hand, "Go on, go on!"

Right after Annabelle walked out, she met someone.

"Mr. Kaleb?"

"Miss Xia, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to visit a friend, Mr. Kaleb, how about you…?"

Kaleb smiled and placed his palm on his heart, "I'm fine, just a regular checkup!"

Annabelle nodded.

"What a coincidence. We met in airport previously and now, in the hospital!" Kaleb smiled.

"Yeah!"

"Are you leaving?" Kaleb asked.

Annabelle nodded.

"Should I get my driver to send you?"

"There's no need, someone is already waiting for me outside!"

"Okay, safe trip!"

Annabelle nodded and turned away to leave.

Kaleb stood there and looked at Annabelle's back view. The more he looked at her, the more he felt

that she looked like Dawson Xiao.

Dawson Xiao…

Whenever he recalled the name, he felt a sharp pain in his heart…

"Brother Kaleb!" Hua called out worriedly from behind him.

Kaleb simply raised his hand and gestured that he was fine. After that, he walked inside.

After he was done with his examination, Hua looked at the doctor, "How was it? Is there any problem?"

"His condition is more stable than before. However, I'll advise Mr. Kaleb to not get emotional or angry.

Try to stay cheerful. As for your daily lives, follow my advices and live a healthy lifestyle. I assure you

that your health will come back!"

"What if we choose to do the operation?"

"Mr. Kaleb's situation is uncommon. We are confident with the surgery but we do not have a suitable

heart. Not only that, we have a complication because Mr. Kaleb had a rare blood type. It increases the

difficulty because we need a heart of the same blood type. We only have a ten percent probable

match!" The doctor said.

When Hua heard that, he had a grim expression, "Even after so long, we still didn't manage to find a

suitable one?"

The doctor shook his head, "We had been trying our best to look for it. But the chances are just slim."

"No matter what, you must find it!" Hua looked at the doctor and said furiously.

"Hua!" At that time, Kaleb raised his voice and Hua stopped talking.

Kaleb looked at the doctor and said, "Pardon us, doctor Lee. He was acting like that because he was

just too worried about me!"

The doctor pushed his spectacles a little and said smilingly, "It's okay, I understand."

"Actually, I am aware of my own condition. It is a great grace from God that I could survive until now.

Let us just try our best and see how it goes!"

"Mr. Kaleb, there is always hope! However, before that, you must maintain a cheerful mood!"

"Got it!"

The doctor nodded. After that, Kaleb turned away and left the room.

Hua watched him helplessly and followed after him.

Right after they got out, Hua said from behind him, "Brother Kaleb, don't worry. Even if I need to give

up this life of mine, I will make sure to find you a suitable donor!"

When Brother Kaleb heard that, he stopped and looked at him, "Hua, I know that you are worried about

me, but know that we aren't in charge of life and the future."

"We can definitely do it. Even if you need my heart, I wouldn't bat an eye!"

Brother Kaleb smiled, "I've lived thus far and I didn't have any family, just you. You must live properly

and live a good life. Everything I have belongs to you!"

"Brother Kaleb!"

"All right, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go home!" After saying that, Brother Kaleb walked

forward.

Hua followed behind him. As he looked at Brother Kaleb's back, he made up his mind secretly.

For the two days Alistair was outstation, everything was normal. However, without Alistair, life wasn't as

interesting.

Annabelle was on a simple routine to work and back home. She would make dinner for herself and

called him in the night.

As time went on, they missed each other more and more.

In the afternoon, Annabelle called Alistair during her break time. She was in a great mood when she

called him. But no one answered. Annabelle thought that the man might be working.

When she was thinking about it, her phone rang. The moment she saw that it was Alistair calling, she

smiled and answered it.

"Hello!"

"Did you call?" Alistair's charming and deep voice emitted from the phone.

"Yeah, were you busy?" Annabelle asked.

"Yeah, I was in the meeting just now."

Annabelle nodded and continued, "When are you coming back tomorrow? I'll go over to pick you up!"

Annabelle said cheerfully.

Alistair was stunned. After a few seconds, he replied, "My return is postponed to 2 days later. I still

couldn't finish the works here!" Alistair said.

When Annabelle heard that, she frowned, "I thought there are no other problems already? Something

happened?"

"Don't worry, you simply need to stay obediently at home and wait for me!"

Since Alistair said that, Annabelle had no other choice but to agree, "All right then, I'll not interrupt your

meeting. Let's hang up first!"

"Okay!"

After the simple conversation, they ended the call.

Annabelle looked at her phone. Although Alistair didn't say anything, she knew that something must be

wrong. However, Annabelle was confident that the man could handle any kind of situations.

Who was he?

The man called Alistair!!

After knowing the man, Annabelle knew that impossibility could be changed to a possibility!

Therefore, Annabelle had faith that he would be able to handle his work matters!

As she thought about that, she breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side.

In the president's office of Xia Group.

Ralphy was sitting on his swivel chair and his deep gaze was casted outside the French window. As if

only the wide, unobstructed view could make his mood a little better.

At that time, his phone rang.

As he glanced over his phone on the table and the number on the screen, he picked it up and

answered it.

"Hello!"

"I have done what you instructed to me."
