Chapter 641 Trouble
After that, Teneria sighed, "Let's talk about this next time. Maybe it is just a coincidence, let us not
trouble yourself!"
Since Teneria said that, Waynie had no other opinion. She nodded agreeably and put the ring back into
the safe.
"Okay, it's getting late now, let's rest!" Teneria said.
Waynie nodded, got into the bed and turned off the bedside lamps.
The room went back to silent. But little did they know, Renee An was standing outside the door and she
frowned deeply…
In the night.
Kaleb Hua sat in his study room and looked at the ring in his hand. The man had a bitter and sorrowful NôvelDrama.Org content.
expression. He had asked someone to custom make a replica. That wasn't the real one.
His objective was to put Waynie to test.
However, the results… Made him even more troubled.
He didn't even have the mood to go to New Zealand now. All he wanted was to find out the truth.
At that time, the door to his room was knocked and Hua appeared by the entrance.
"Brother Kaleb, are you looking for me?"
Kaleb Hua looked at him and said, "Help me to reinvestigate Waynie and Teneria!"
When Hua heard that, he was stunned, "What's wrong? Did anything happen?"
Kaleb Hua squinted his eyes, "I have my own reasons!"
"Okay, got it!" Hua answered.
Kaleb Hua was stunned. After that, he said, "What are you busying about lately? I haven't been seeing
you around!"
Hua was stunned and he answered, "No, nothing at all!"
Kaleb Hua stared at him but he didn't ask further, "Help me to investigate properly!"
"Got it!"
"All right, it's getting late now, hurry and go to sleep!"
Hua nodded and walked out. Kaleb Hua sat there and squinted his eyes. No matter what, he must find
out the truth!"
……
Annabelle didn't know what happened to her lately but she was sleepy all the time. She had a feeling
that she would never get enough sleep. Not only that, she felt tired just moving a little. When she woke
up in the morning and saw the clock, she knew she will be late again.
The woman just felt fortunate about her relationship with Alistair. Otherwise the manager would be
complaining about her already.
After a quick rinse, she went to the company.
She held her phone and stared at it all the time, afraid that she might missed a call. Alistair hadn't been
calling her since last night. The man said that he would be coming back today. Annabelle was prepared
to go pick him up but she hadn't received any call.
When she thought about that, she made a call to Alistair. However, all she heard was: sorry, the
number you called is unavailable…
Ever since the previous night, Annabelle had gotten sick of this automated reply.
She didn't know what happened and she was just anxious.
At that time, Covi approached her and looked at her, "Annabelle, what's wrong?"
When Annabelle saw Covi, she came back to her senses and asked, "What do you mean?"
"You don't look too good, did anything happen?"
"Really?" Annabelle touched her own face. Covi nodded.
"Maybe I haven't been sleeping enough last night!"
……
Annabelle was guilty to even give that excuse. She had a long and good rest last night.
Covi nodded, "Are you worried about president Mu?"
"That's justifiable. Nobody would expect things to be so complicated!"
Annabelle frowned, "What?"
"President Mu's business case in Singapore. They already had a deal for the land but it turned out to
be an illegal transaction. That was clearly a fraud!"
When Annabelle heard that, she was stunned, "What did you say?"
When Covi saw Annabelle in shock, she was stunned. She looked at her and asked, "You, you didn't
know?"
"When did it happen?"
"Just yesterday… I heard it from the manager. I think president Mu was even invited to the police
station!"
Annabelle frowned. She hadn't expected that to happen. No wonder Alistair had been acting weird
when they were calling.
The man said nothing and Annabelle knew that he didn't want to worry her!
Even so, she found out about it eventually. Wasn't that just the same?
After Annabelle pondered for a while, she turned around to leave.
"Annabelle, where are you going?!" Covi called out from behind. But Annabelle didn't even turn her
head back and walked away.
"Jessie!"
"Miss Xia!" The moment the secretary saw Annabelle, she greeted her with a smile.
"Did president Mu call?" Annabelle asked.
The secretary shook her head, "He didn't!"
"How about Jack?"
"He didn't call as well!" The secretary shook her head.
Annabelle was showing a worried expression, "Do you know where president Mu stays over there?"
When the secretary saw how anxious Annabelle was, she nodded, "Yes!"
Annabelle walked closer and said, "Help me to book a flight ticket to Singapore!"
"Now?"
Annabelle nodded, "Right now!"
"…Oh, okay!" The the secretary nodded and started to make calls.
Annabelle continued to call Alistair over and over again. However, the result was the same every time.
At that moment, she happened to see the news in the TV screen by the side.
"Approximately half an hour ago, we lost contact with a plane from Singapore to A city, China…" The
moment Annabelle heard the word 'Singapore'. She raised her head and looked at the screen.
Everyone that saw that was stunned. They stared at the news channel with wide eyes.
Annabelle stood there and watched the news report. She couldn't explain the fear she was feeling…
However, she told herself that Alistair will be fine, he is still in Singapore…
When she turned her head back, the secretary looked at her, "Miss Xia, I can't book a flight right now.
The communication traffic is jammed, I couldn't even get my call through. That must be due to the
plane losing contact!"
"Is there any other way?"
"I'm afraid no. Losing communication with a plane is something huge, I believe the airport is currently
being bombarded with calls!"
Annabelle had a grim expression. She hadn't expected something like that to happen.
"Jessie, keep trying. And call me after you have booked the ticket!"
The secretary nodded. Annabelle took her phone and turned away to leave. As she was walking away,
she continued to call Alistair. However all she had was the same automated reply.
The news of the plane from Singapore to A city losing contact was like water into boiling oil.
Annabelle tried everything but she just couldn't get a ticket to Singapore. In the end, she had no choice
but to look for Ralphy.
The moment the brother saw Annabelle, he was surprised. The man saw the news as well, and
Annabelle…
"Bro!"
"Annabelle, what are you doing here?" Ralphy looked at her and asked. The sister would rarely come
here to look for him.
Annabelle didn't beat around the bush and she said straightforwardly, "I'm here to ask for your help!"
"What is it?" Ralphy asked.
"Help me to book a flight to Singapore!"
When Ralphy heard that, he frowned, "What are you gonna do in Singapore? Don't you know that there
was a plane that just lost contact from Singapore?"
"I know, but I must make a trip to Singapore now!" Annabelle said.
When Ralphy saw how determined she was, he was stunned. But he realized what happened right
away, "The airport must be paralyzed right now. How do you plan to go over?"
"I know, that's why I'm here to ask for your help.
"Now that the plane got into trouble, we can safely assume that all of the other flights wouldn't be able
to take off normally. It isn't that I don't want to help, but I am not able!" Ralphy rejected right away.
"Bro!"
"Annabelle, listen to your brother. Don't think of that anymore. It's not that I don't want to help you and
you must understand that it is a big deal for a plane to lose contact. It is beyond my ability to send you
over!" Ralphy looked at her and said.
"You are not alone and you are not a child anymore. Don't do something that worries your family!"
Ralphy said. He knew she was anxious to go look for Alistair. But the brother was just as worried about
her safety as well.
Annabelle stood there and stared at Ralphy. After sometime, she nodded, "I understand."
"Annabelle, don't blame your brother. I am just worried about you!" Ralphy said.
Annabelle forced a smile on her face, "Got it, I understand. Pardon me, bro, I was too impulsive!"
"I hope you don't blame your brother!"
Annabelle smiled, "I won't. I recalled that I have something going on and I shall leave now!"
Before Ralphy could say anything, Annabelle rushed away. Ralphy looked at her back view and
grabbed her hand.
Annabelle was surprised by the sudden grip and she turned her head around.
Ralphy was standing close to her, holding her arm. When the man saw her distanced gaze, a pain
flashed in his eyes, "Annabelle, are you angry at me?"
Annabelle stared into his eyes and shook her head, "No!"
"Really?"
Annabelle nodded, "Bro, I understand. Don't worry, I know what I am doing!"
Ralphy looked at her eyes and it was clear like a lake. However, he just couldn't tell what she was
thinking at all. The man didn't know what to say. In the end, Annabelle struggled and broke free from
his grip and walked away.
After she left, Ralphy came back to his senses. He punched the door furiously…
Alistair, how dare you!!!
When Annabelle walked out from the Xia Group, her eyes were red. She was nervous and worried sick.
Fear was slowly crippling her. She took a few deep breaths and tried her best to smile. She tried to
calm herself down. There must be some ways!
Alistair…
You said you will never let go of me. And now that you got into trouble, I will not leave you alone!
Even if I can't help you, I want to accompany you!
Wait for me!
Wait for me!!!
She wasn't an irrational woman. However, at that very moment, she just couldn't control her emotion
and thoughts anymore. She wanted to meet him. She wanted to see her man… badly.
She continued to think of every possibilities and ways, finally, Annabelle recalled one man…
