My Killing President

Chapter 678 Love

The next day.

Alistair was working in his office as his office line rang. The man simply pressed on the hands-free.

"Mr. Mu, there is a man called Mr. Lu looking for you!"

When Alistair heard that, his gesture paused. He looked at the phone and said, "Let him in!"

"Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Alistair lowered his pen and closed his documents. At that time, the door

was opened and Antonio Lu walked inside.

"President Mu!"

Alistair looked at him and raised an eyebrow, "Yes, how can I help you?"

"I wish to talk to you!"

Alistair nodded, "Have a seat!"

After saying that, he pressed on the quick dial and said, "Get me two cups of coffee!" After saying that,

he hung up and walked towards the couch.

When Antonio Lu was about to sit down, he noticed that the couch had an expensive looking white

color blanket. It was a conflict to the entire office's design. The man didn't know that it was specially

prepared for Annabelle to give her a more comfortable stay here.

Only those that knew how much Alistair pampers Annabelle could tell the purpose of his office layout.

But Alistair didn't care what he was thinking at all. He walked over and sat down, crossing his long legs

together. The man was carrying a great care of nobility, "What is your purpose of visiting me?"

Antonio Lu looked at him and said, "I'm here to talk about Nancy!"

Right after he said that, the door was knocked on the secretary came inside with two cups of coffee,

"President Mu, coffee!" She lowered them on the coffee table and excused herself.

At that time, Alistair lifted a cup leisurely and glanced at him, "What about Nancy?"

"President Mu, in response to what you told me that day, I want to tell you that I do not have any hidden

motives towards Nancy. I didn't get together with her because of any objectives at all!" Antonio Lu said.

Alistair lowered his coffee and raised his gaze to look at him, "And then?"

"I am serious towards her!" Antonio Lu said.

Alistair harrumphed and his lips curled up mockingly. The man's gaze was deriding as well, "Serious?

Mr. Lu, do you even know her?"

"I don't, but I can find out slowly!"

"I know that we met in a bar and most of the people there were fooling around. But I think they are

definitely exceptions!"

"Are you telling me you fell in love with Nancy at first sight?" Alistair raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Yes!" Antonio Lu did not deny.

Alistair's lips curled up faintly. His gaze was deep and Antonio Lu just couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"I can tell that Nancy treats you differently. However, since you are unable to give her what she wants,

why not give her a chance, give me a chance?!" Antonio Lu asked.

When Alistair heard that, his gaze sharpened and he stared intently at Antonio Lu, "What are you trying

to say?"

"I heard that president Mu is getting married soon, right? Let me congratulate you!" Antonio Lu said.

Alistair smiled. He could tell that the man wasn't as simple as he appeared, "Mr. Lu, you don't have to

tell me that. When Nancy's father comes over, you can tell him personally!"

Antonio Lu frowned, "Nancy's father is coming?"

"Yes, he comes to bring her back!"

Antonio Lu had a weird expression and didn't know how he should respond.

"Therefore, you can save what you just said and tell him personally!" Alistair said slowly. His voice was

deep and charming, as if he had everything under his control.

Antonio Lu looked at him and didn't say anything more. The man simply nodded, "If that's the case, I

shall excuse myself now!"

He got up and walked out the door.

Alistair called out to him from behind.

Antonio Lu turned his head back as Alistair sat on the couch. The man didn't get up and he simply

stared at him and spoke casually, "Before Nancy's father come over, it is best if you can settle your

company's financial issue first!"

Once Antonio Lu heard that, his expression changed. It was obvious that Alistair had investigated him.

"Don't worry, I will!" After saying that, Antonio Lu opened the door angrily and left.

Right after the door was closed, Alistair's lips curled up swaggeringly…

……

Annabelle sat in Dorie's shop and waited.

At that time, a figure rushed over hurriedly.

"Sorry about that, Annabelle. I'm late!" After saying that, Dorie sat down. At that time, An-an served

Dorie her usual drink. The moment the glass was put in front of Dorie, she gulped it down right away.

Annabelle sat in front of her and smiled as she looked at Dorie, "You sure looked different now that you

became an assistant to a hot shot!"

"Sigh, not that, but it is simply time consuming. I think I am in a rather comfortable situation compared

to others. Now I finally realized that not just anyone can be an assistant!"

"Why so?"

"Those celebrities were just abusing their assistants. They showed no mercy and simply left all their

works to them!" Dorie said.

"Now that you look so vigorous and energetic, it seemed that Su hadn't been using you at all!"

Annabelle chuckled.

Dorie smiled and waved her hand, "Still acceptable, I was just a little more relaxed compared to the

rest!" Although she said that, the smile on her eyes had betrayed her. Annabelle could tell that she was

having a good time.

"How about Su? Is he adapting well?"

Dorie nodded, "He had been training diligently for the past few days. However, I heard from Peter that

he wanted to let him start as the male lead for the coming TV drama!"

Annabelle was shocked, "It seemed like Su's stardom is getting laid out!"

When Dorie heard that, she nodded in agreement. Her lies lit up in joy and excitement, "When we went

for the audition this morning, the director was very satisfied with him. He even asked which film college

he graduated from. However, Su had never taken professional lessons at all!"

"Natural talent!" Annabelle concluded.

Dorie nodded. She smiled happily while enjoying her desert, "I think so too!"

"Now that you are so busy and so happy, do you think you can still be my bridesmaid?" Annabelle

asked.

"That's for sure. Don't worry, I had it all worked out with Su. The both of us will definitely be there for

your wedding. We will push through all obstacles!"

"That's more like it!"

Dorie smiled, "By the way, I haven't been talking to you for the past few days. How are things going on

over your side?"

"Same old same old!"

"Did the little girl cause any trouble again?"

"She… She found a new boyfriend!"

Dorie was drinking and she almost choked, "Boyfriend? Really?"

"I am not too sure. But I do know that there was a person like that!"

Dorie was eating as she started to let her imagination run wild, "Could she be looking for a last minute

part-time boyfriend to test Alistair?"

Once Annabelle heard that, she stared intently at Dorie. The friend had that exact same guess as her.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do I have anything on my face?" Dorie asked.

Annabelle shook her head and squinted her eyes, "I noticed that after getting together with Su, you got

smarter…"

But why did Dorie feel that it wasn't a compliment at all…

……

Two days later.

Albert came to A city.

Only a selected few knew about his coming to A city. Due to his identity, he blocked booked the entire

hotel.

In the night, Alistair brought Annabelle to meet him.

Annabelle wasn't showing much of a keen interest. She had only heard a simplistic introduction about

Nancy's father being the wealthiest man in Malaysia from Alistair. Annabelle did not know what kind of

man he was at all.

As they stood outside the hotel, Alistair was speaking in Malay to the guard standing outside. After that,

he opened the door and walked inside.

The lights were brightly lit in the hotel and there were two security guards standing inside. They were

wearing the same black uniform suit. It was observable that the employer must be someone of great

stature.

At that time, there was a man back facing them. He had a medium build. Not fat nor skinny, just nice.

"Master!" At that time, Alistair called out to him.

"You are here!" Albert turned his head back and spoke in a very fluent Mandarin.

Annabelle was a little surprised when she saw the man. Albert resembled more towards Asian and his

deep gaze was very identical to Nancy. It was obvious that Nancy had gotten her charming eyes from

him.

When Albert saw Alistair appearing with another woman, he examined Annabelle from head to toe.

"Master, let me introduce. This is Annabelle, my wife!" Alistair introduced.

Annabelle looked at Albert and nodded her head with a smile to greet him.

Albert averted his gaze and spoke indifferently to Alistair, "Have a seat!"

Alistair brought Annabelle forward and sat at the side.

"I heard that the two of you are getting married soon?"

"Next month!"

Albert nodded and stopped talking. Alistair simply asked, "Master, do you want to stay here and attend

our wedding?"

"No, I'm here to bring Nancy home!" Albert said and his tone was casual. They couldn't tell his emotion

at all.

Annabelle thought to herself that Albert favored Alistair but it turned out Nancy couldn't end up with the

man.

At that time, they heard a sound from behind and Nancy walked in. The moment she saw Annabelle

and Alistair, her eyes dimmed. She looked at Alistair and her gaze carried a hint of blame.

After that her expression changed and she walked towards Albert with a smile, "Daddy, why didn't you

tell me that you are coming!"

She walked over and gave Albert a coquettish hug.

"I was so worried about you that I needed to make this last minute trip!" Although the man was

reprimanding his daughter, his tone was filled with gentleness and pamper.

"I am fine now, someone was just exaggerating!" Nancy simply blamed Alistair.

Alistair simply sat there quietly. Albert had already known what happened in details.

"How is your body? I have arranged some doctors for you. You can do your medical checkup right after

you go back tomorrow!" The father said.

The moment Nancy heard that, her expression changed. So the inevitable had come.

"Daddy, I don't want to go back yet!"

Right after she said that, the atmosphere was tensed. Albert looked at her and spoke, "Reason?"

"My body is fine now and I do not wish to leave this place for the time being!" Nancy said determinedly.

"Your reason is not convincing enough!"

"Daddy, I do not want to leave my boyfriend!" Nancy said.

Albert looked at her with a deep gaze and he wasn't in a rush to speak.

Nancy didn't plan to hide from her father and she explained, "I just got myself a boyfriend, so I don't

want to leave so soon!"

Albert knew what her daughter was thinking. Nancy had been growing up following behind Alistair. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Although she said nothing, the father was aware about her admiration and adoration towards the man.

All of a sudden she got herself a new boyfriend? Although Albert was aged, he was a sharp man.

"Daddy, Alistair and sister Annabelle had seen him before. They could be my witness!" Nancy was

afraid that Albert wouldn't believe her and she leveraged on the two.

Alistair was silent and Annabelle spoke nothing as well.

Albert did not ask them but he simply said, "Ask him to come over here!"

"Right now?!"

Albert nodded.

"But he just went back!"

"It is good for youngsters to move more!" Albert said.

Nancy knew that the father always gets what he wants. Since she needed to convince the man to let

her stay there, she had no choice but to take out her phone and walked away to call Antonio Lu.

About a minute later, Nancy walked back and said, "Daddy, he is on his way and he will be here soon!"

"Okay!" Albert nodded.

Twenty minutes later, Antonio Lu appeared in the hotel.

When Antonio Lu saw the real deal standing in front of him, he was nervous. After all, that was the like

of person he could only see from the news.

The moment he saw Alistair, Antonio Lu's expression changed.

"Hello, uncle!" Antonio Lu greeted.

Albert looked at him and didn't say anything. His deep gaze was staring intently at him, as if he was

dissecting him. Antonio Lu was just restless and nervous.

At that time, Nancy stepped forward and grabbed Antonio Lu's arm. She looked at Albert and said,

"Daddy, he is Antonio Lu, my boyfriend!"

She did look a little convincing.

Alistair and Annabelle simply sat quietly at the site. They looked at them nonchalantly and didn't say

anything.

After sometime, Albert spoke, "Have a seat!"

Antonio Lu and nodded, "Thank you, uncle!" And he sat himself down.

"How long have the two of you being together?"

"Umm… Five days!"

Nancy was showing an awkward expression, "Daddy, this has nothing to do with the amount of time we

are together!"

"How much do you know her?" Albert ignored Nancy and asked Antonio Lu directly.

"… Not much at all!" Antonio Lu answered.

"What do you mean by not much?"

"I simply know that she wasn't in the best health condition!"

"Since you know that, why do you choose to stay with her?" Albert asked.

Nancy was getting upset, "Daddy…"

Albert averted his stare at her and she shut up immediately. Since she wanted to stay here, she must

obey the father.

Antonio Lu looked at them and said, "I know none of you would believe if I said I love Nancy. But that is

the truth!"

"Mr. Lu, how much do you know about me?" Albert asked suddenly.

Antonio Lu was stunned and he understood what the man meant. However, he just couldn't come up

with the right answer.

"When I knew Nancy, I didn't know your identity!"

"Does that mean you know it now?"

Antonio Lu didn't deny and nodded.

Albert smiled, "I came here purposely to bring her back!"

Right after he said that, Antonio Lu looked towards Nancy. The two of them looked at each other and

exchanged gaze.

"Uncle, I do not know what you are thinking. But I wish to tell you that I am serious in this relationship!"

Antonio Lu said, "Even if you bring Nancy back, I will definitely go look for her!"

Here comes the cliché romance drama!

Annabelle watched from the side and kept silent.

She just couldn't believe that Antonio Lu didn't know what Nancy was trying to do.

At that time, Nancy spoke as well, "I will not leave!"

When Albert saw that the two of them were so determined, he said, "Mr. Lu, I still have something to

talk to Nancy, you should go back first!"

The two of them were stunned. Antonio Lu stood up and nodded politely.

"Xiao-an, good night and drive safe!"

"Okay!"

After saying that, Nancy tiptoed and kissed his cheek.

Antonio Lu smiled and left.

After he walked away, Alistair held Annabelle's hand and got up, "Master, since you need to speak with

Nancy, we will head back first. Let's eat together tomorrow!"

Albert nodded, "Okay. I have already instructed someone to send your wedding gift to your company!"

Alistair nodded, "We shall go now!"

After that, he placed his arm on Annabelle's waist and they walked out together.

When Nancy saw them walking away, her eyes were fixed intently on Alistair and Annabelle…

After that, she was showing a dejected expression.

"What are you thinking?" At that time, Albert asked.

Nancy came back to her senses and turned her head back. She walked towards her father, "Daddy…"

"I know what you want to say. But do you know what daddy wants to say?"

Nancy looked at him and nodded.

"Now that you saw what happened, you still can't give up?" Albert asked.

Nancy lowered her eyes and she was completely dejected. She wanted to give up as well but she just

couldn't do it. Whenever she thought about him, she would feel that life was filled with rainbows and

sunshine.

But the moment she remembered the thought of losing him, she would feel a heart wrenching pain…

"Daddy, I don't want to go back!" Nancy said.

"But it is dangerous for you to stay here like this!"

"Daddy, please give me another chance. If I don't succeed, I will follow you back and I will stay by your

side for the rest of my life!" Nancy said.

When Albert looked at Nancy, the father felt burdened. He loved his daughter very much and he didn't

know what to say.

He knew that he couldn't be forcing everything to his own will. And the man knew Nancy's temper and

personality well. She was just as stubborn as himself and the man nodded in approval after sometime,

"Don't let your daddy worry too much…"

Nancy broke into a laughter, "Daddy, don't worry. I won't!"

On their way back, Annabelle sat on the passenger seat. After a long silence, she couldn't help but

spoke her mind.

"Alistair, how is your relationship with Albert?"

"Not bad. Why? Why are you asking that?"

"Nothing. I simply want to see how Albert would react on this matter!" Annabelle said.

"He actually asked me in the past, whether I was willing to stay with Nancy. As long as I was willing, he

would let me manage all of his assets!" Alistair said suddenly.

Annabelle was stunned and she looked at Alistair. After a long while, she asked, "And then?"

"I refused!" He answered casually. After that, he held her hand and kissed it, "If not, how could I be with

you now?"

"You could even turn away from such a huge temptation?"

"Therefore, it is proven that I am a good man. Miss Xia, you must be sure to appreciate me!"

"Don't be conceited. Have you never hesitated about it?" Annabelle asked.

Alistair pondered for a while and nodded, "I did!"

Annabelle's heart sunk. She looked at Alistair and waited his following sentences.

"After what happened to Nancy and she almost lost her life, we thought that she wouldn't get any better

anymore. At that time, I said that I will take care of her for the rest of her life because that was my

responsibility!"

"And after that?"

"After that I felt that it wasn't fair for her. Nancy was a good girl. Although she was childish and

stubborn at times, she deserved a person that loves her genuinely!" Alistair said.

Annabelle was silent. However, she was comforted with the fact that Alistair did not hesitate because of

any feelings he might have towards Nancy.

"After that, she was healed miraculously and I came back. After that, I married you… And you knew the

rest of the stories!" Alistair said.

"Then what about Albert?"

"He is a wise and upright man. Although he was willing to do just anything for Nancy, he was rational

enough to know that he wouldn't be able to force a relationship and genuine feelings. He didn't want

Nancy to marry a person that doesn't like her!"

Annabelle nodded. All of a sudden, she felt that everything was just complicated.

In the end, Annabelle had a conclusion. If one should look for a partner, they should look for a person

with simple background. Otherwise, there would just be a lot of headaches and trouble in the future.

When Alistair saw that Annabelle was keeping quiet, he held her hand tightly. The man had chosen to

speak honestly because he was afraid that she would overthink, "What happened? Are you jealous?"

"I was feeling heavy hearted that you had rejected billions and billions of asset and wealth!"

Alistair spoke solemnly all of a sudden, "But I do not feel that at all. Because you are priceless to me!"

When Annabelle heard that, she raised her gaze and their eyes met. At that very moment, she was

drowned in his loving tenderness. All of a sudden, she could identify with the popular saying in the

design department.

If Alistair wanted any woman, the man simply need an eye gesture. Now Annabelle had experienced it.

The man's charm came from every simplest gesture of his. Even his gaze. The woman was just feeling

fortunate that the man had loved her the way she loved him…
