Chapter 658 Picture
Alistair stared at him and his gaze was deep, "Mr. Kaleb, what do you think I am doing here?!"
Kaleb Hua laughed loudly, "How can I know why is president Mu looking for me?"
Alistair looked at him, "I believe Mr. Kaleb definitely knows why I am here!"
"President Mu, I really have no idea what are you doing here! I can't be reading your mind, right?"
Kaleb Hua smiled. He had been with the mobsters for so long. This kind of conversation was just ABC
for him.
The two of them were just beating around the bush.
Alistair had a grim expression. He looked at Kaleb Hua and he couldn't suppress himself anymore, "Mr.
Kaleb, where is Annabelle right now?!"
When Kaleb Hua saw Alistair's outburst, he was completely undisturbed.
"Are you referring to Miss Xia?" He raised an eyebrow and asked back.
Alistair did not deny and stared intently at him.
Kaleb Hua smiled and he exuded a strong aura, "Isn't she your fiancée? Why are you asking me her
whereabouts? What do you mean?"
The man was denying the obvious.
Alistair looked at him and said, "Mr. Kaleb, let's not waste time anymore. Earlier this morning, you and
another person called Hua helped her to arrange the discharge procedure in Ren He hospital. Are you
telling me that you haven't seen her?"
When Kaleb Hua heard him saying that, he wasn't surprised at all. He knew what Alistair was capable
of.
He wouldn't be able to hide that from him.
"Yeah, Miss Xia fainted yesterday and she was admitted. I was the one that sent her to the hospital.
And this morning as well, I was the one that helped her to get discharged. However, after we were
done, she left!"
When Alistair heard that Annabelle fainted, he gripped his fist, "She left? Where did she go?"
"I think she went back!" Kaleb Hua said nonchalantly.
"By the way, the doctor said she is pregnant and her condition isn't stable!" While he was answering,
Kaleb Hua did not shy away from giving Alistair a little punishment.
As expected, Alistair's expression changed. He stared at Kaleb Hua and didn't know what to say.
However, he knew very clearly that Annabelle didn't go back. Now that Annabelle was gone, Kaleb Hua
was definitely a part of it.
It is clear that Kaleb Hua had no intention of telling him anything.
"May I ask why is president Mu asking me questions like that? Did the two of you quarrel?" Kaleb Hua
looked at him and asked.
Alistair looked at him and said, "I just recalled that I have something urgent to do. And since Mr. Kaleb
didn't know anything, I shouldn't interrupt you anymore!" After saying that, Alistair wanted to leave.
"President Mu, since you already have a fiancé, you should be more considerate. Otherwise, if you
really lose something you hold dearly, it might be too late to regret!" Kaleb Hua said from behind.
Alistair was stunned for a while. He didn't say anything and walked out directly.
As Kaleb Hua watched as Alistair walked away, he averted his gaze and continued with his work. He
simply ignored the episode.
Right after Alistair walked out, he came face-to-face with Hua.
The moment Alistair saw him, he recognized him right away.
This was the person that facilitated the discharge of Annabelle. When he thought about that, his eyes
narrowed.
Of course, Hua knew about Alistair as well.
He simply pretended to not know him and walked past him.
Alistair stood there and glanced at Hua. No matter what, he must make sure to find Annabelle.
When he sat in the car, he called Jack's number.
"Where are you?"
"In… In the company!" Jack was diffident, as if everything he did was transparent for Alistair.
"For the coming few days, help me to keep a close eye on Kaleb Hua. I want to know where he is going
and what he is doing!" Alistair enunciated.
Jack was stunned for a long time. After he came back to his senses, he asked, "Sir, are you suggesting
me to… tail him?"
"Yes!!!"
"Okay, I got it!"
Jack knew that if Annabelle were to go missing, Alistair must be in a bad mood. Therefore, he didn't
dare to ask any questions and simply followed his instructions.
After hanging up the call, Alistair looked at Kaleb Hua's company. Now that he had a target, it was
much easier. It was much easier than searching amongst the endless crowd.
Annabelle, I will never let you leave me like this!
In the company.
Hua knocked on the door and walked inside, "Brother Kaleb, what was Alistair doing here?"
"He found out that we were the ones that helped Annabelle to get her discharge done!" Kaleb Hua said
indifferently, he didn't seem to care at all.
"What a surprise that he managed to get it so soon. No wonder he was looking at me so weirdly
earlier!"
Kaleb Hua chuckled, "He is quite the competent kid!"
The man did not dislike Alistair. Not only that, he even admired his wits. However, he wouldn't be able
to identify with his actions when Annabelle was involved.
Hua looked at Kaleb Hua and said, "According to Alistair's personality, he wouldn't let this go easily!"
"Therefore, we must make sure to be careful. He is quite the smart one, be careful not to let him find
out anything!" Kaleb Hua said.
Hua nodded, "Got it!"
"How was your investigation going?"
"We are still proceeding. We will be knowing it after two days!", Hua reported.
Kaleb Hua nodded. The man was looking forward in great anticipation yet he was somewhat fearful to
know the answer.
"By the way, how was she today?"
"Not too bad. She was sleeping amply!"
"Ask auntie Li to prepare accordingly with the doctor's prescribed nutrition plan!"
"I have already given the instruction. You don't have to worry about Miss Xia's stay!"
The man wanted to be restful as well, but he just couldn't.
It felt as if Annabelle was his dearest family. He couldn't help but think and worry about her all the time.
Kaleb Hua nodded.
"If you couldn't be restful, you can be visiting her in the night. Maybe Miss Xia would have dinner with
you!" Hua smiled as he gave the idea. He could tell that Kaleb Hua wanted to spend time with
Annabelle.
Whenever they were together, he could always see a different side of Kaleb Hua.
It was something he had rarely seen for the past years.
Kaleb Hua pondered for a while and said, "Forget it, let's give her some privacy for now!"
Hua nodded in agreement.
"Get someone to send more nourishing food over!"
"Okay!"
It was obvious that the man wanted to go very much. However, he held himself back.
Hopefully the answer was just what they expected and it wasn't a letdown.
In afternoon.
Kaleb Hua sat in the car and Hua sat in front. After they were driving for a long time, Hua noticed a car
that tailed them from behind.
He turned his head back and looked at Kaleb Hua, "Brother Kaleb…" He didn't say anything but
signaled him to look behind.
Kaleb Hua did not turn his head back and simply smiled, "Just let him be!"
Hua didn't say anything and looked at the driver, "Let's go back!"
The driver nodded and drove back.
Kaleb Hua knew that Alistair would definitely do that. Therefore, he pretended to be unaware and let
them follow him.
On the other side.
As Annabelle didn't see Alistair and Nancy, she didn't have much of a mood swing and she was able to
be at peace.
Her face was a healthy color and she had gotten much healthier.
She had someone to take care of her accommodation and daily necessities. She could just completely Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
rest herself.
The woman couldn't help but think to herself, that she must get someone to take care of her like that in
the future.
The weather was nice that day. Annabelle was doing some gardening outside. At that time, auntie Li
walked out from inside and said, "Miss Xia, you don't have to do that, hurry and get inside to rest!"
When Annabelle heard auntie Li, she raised her head and smiled, "I wasn't working but simply doing it
for recreational purpose. It's not tiring, please don't worry!"
When auntie Li looked at Annabelle's smile, she was restful, "Miss Xia, you look healthier and better! I
believe your pregnancy is much more stable now!"
When Annabelle heard that, she stood up, "Really?"
"Now that the child is in your stomach, connected to you. Know that every change in your mood, your
food or even your daily routine would affect the child directly!" Auntie Li said.
When Annabelle heard her, she nodded, "Got it, I will definitely be sure to maintain a good mood!"
"All right, I shall go inside and start cooking!"
"Okay!" Annabelle nodded.
After auntie Li walked inside, Annabelle continued to water the plants. When she felt a little tired, she
got up and sat on the swing to rest.
She looked around and enjoyed herself. She didn't know why but she just loved the place.
It felt as if she simply needed to look around the place and she would be in a better mood.
She thought to herself that the woman that liked this place must be a peace lover.
The place was free from the bustling outside.
When Annabelle thought about that, her lips curled up gently.
She was in a great mood.
During her separation with Alistair, life wasn't as interesting. However, she had a peaceful time and she
could have a long time to think properly.
She stood up and walked inside the house.
After taking a shower and got changed, she was bored. She wanted to find something to kill time. At
that time, she walked out the room and saw another room that resembled a study room. Annabelle
planned to go in and find a book to read.
When she opened the door, it was a study room.
The window faced the sunset and it had white curtains. Right in front of the window was a working desk
with computer.
The study room was properly equipped.
Although the woman wasn't around anymore, Kaleb Hua paid attention to every smallest detail.
Annabelle walked inside and looked around. Everything seemed to be arranged leisurely. However,
Annabelle knew that it was meticulously designed.
Annabelle wanted to find book to read, but all of a sudden, a picture by the shelves caught her
attention…
