Chapter 719 Decision
Unfortunately.
Annabelle Xia did not understand what Alistair Mu meant by saying that.
Probably, it wasn't that she didn't understand but at that very moment, she didn't know there was
something happening in secret and she was resting joyously in Alistair Mu's love.
Regrettably…
Things would go south from here onwards.
Everything seemed to be fine on the surface but it was actually breaking apart.
……
Two days later.
Alistair Mu was sitting behind his desk in his office. The man squinted his eyes in vex and his gaze was
sharp like a blade.
At that time, Jack came inside the office.
"President Mu!"
"How was it?"
Jack nodded with a serious demeanor, "Sir, you are right!"
After hearing that, Alistair Mu's expression turned even grimmer.
"Where are they?"
"They changed the venue. Now they are in Hoana Hotel!"
Alistair Mu's face was tensed and he stood up, "Let's join the party!" After saying that, he took his coat
and walked outside.
Jack followed closely behind.
Hoana Hotel.
Ralphy Xia and Frieda was signing the contract.
"Frieda, didn't I say that we will definitely have a chance to work together!" Ralphy Xia shook his wine
glass gently. The man had a confident and proud smile on his face.
Frieda was a foreigner and he admired Ralphy Xia's confidence. The man's lips curled up as he said, "I
look forward to work with you. Cheers!"
Ralphy Xia moved closer and clinked with his glass, "Cheers!"
After drinking, Ralphy Xia looked at Frieda, "Then, shall we?"
"Sure!"
At that time, the assistant's delivered the documents and also a pen.
Right when they wanted to sign a contract, the door opened suddenly.
Their motion of signing was interrupted and everyone looked to at the door.
Alistair Mu and Jack walked inside.
"What a party, why didn't you invited me?" Alistair Mu strode inside confidently. The man's smile was
self-possessed and poised. He had such a strong and authoritative aura and they just couldn't help but
feel overawed.
When Ralphy Xia saw him, his eyebrows knitted closely. The man glanced at his assistant from the
side.
The assistant spoke right away, "I don't know what happened!"
As Frieda looked at Alistair Mu, he frowned. He hadn't expected Alistair Mu to interrupt their signing.
The man wanted to sign with Alistair Mu initially. But Yun Rui was exposed to be involved in such a
scandal. The project wasn't as important as their reputation. Therefore, Frieda had no choice but to
work with the Xia Group instead.
Alistair Mu simply walked to them and acted carefreely.
"Alistair Mu, what are you doing here?" Ralphy Xia looked at Alistair Mu in annoyance. He was about to
succeed and this man simply barged inside!
When Alistair Mu looked at his hostile gaze, he simply smiled, "It's nothing. I am simply here to look
around. Hi, Mr. Frieda, we meet again!"
Frieda looked back at Alistair Mu. The man didn't know what the president of Yun Rui was doing there
and he simply nodded to greet him back.
After all, he was embarrassed as well to pull out from the collaboration with Yun Rui without saying
anything.
"Alistair Mu, we are here to sign a contract. What are you doing here? To sabotage our project?"
Ralphy Xia reprimanded coldly. His tone was filled with frustration and deride.
The man knew that Alistair Mu definitely had something up his sleeve.
Yun Rui had snatched so many of their contracts in the past and he was just worried.
When Alistair Mu saw how worried he was, he simply sat down together with them and asked lazily,
"President Xia, are you perhaps worrying about something?"
"Hmph, I am not worried. But I have heard that something serious had happened in your esteemed
company. Shouldn't you stay in the company and handle your problem?" Ralphy Xia looked at him and
said. The man was mocking him.
When Alistair Mu heard that, his eyes were gleaming in a cold chill. After that, he sneered, "Since you
think that my company's reputation soiled, what are you worrying about? Or do you think that after what
happened to Yun Rui, we could still pose a threat as your competitor?"
Ralphy Xia's expression changed and he was humiliated.
Alistair Mu simply sneered in deride.
"What do you want?"
"Nothing. I simply came to take a look and give you my best wishes!" After saying that, Alistair Mu lifted
his wine glass and looked at both Ralphy Xia and Frieda. The man sipped on his red wine elegantly.
Ralphy Xia was just boiling in anger, "Now that you have seen us, can you leave now?"
Alistair Mu lowered his glass and sneered at him, "Why are you in such a hurry? Are you worrying that
you wouldn't be able to sign a contract? Or is there something else?" He looked at Ralphy Xia intently.
The man was exuding such a strong chill and it made Ralphy Xia diffident.
Ralphy Xia averted his gaze and harrumphed, "I don't know what you are talking about!"
"You don't know?" Alistair Mu chuckled. However, his laugh was just suggestive, as if he had a
leverage on Ralphy Xia.
Alistair Mu looked at the man, "Ralphy Xia, I'm here to give you my warning. You better know where to
stop. Otherwise, you should know better about the consequences!"
Ralphy Xia looked at Alistair Mu and frowned deeply. The man was feeling a sense of unease.
Could he have find out already?
After that, Alistair Mu stood up and looked at them, "Please continue. I wish the two of you the best!"
After saying that, he glanced at them suggestively and turned around to leave.
After his short interruption, the both of them were made nervous.
After watching him left, Ralphy Xia finally rested his high strung heart.
Alistair Mu, however it may be, you have lost to me this time!!
He turned around and looked at Frieda, "Sorry about that, Mr. Frieda. Let us proceed!"
Frieda nodded. When he was about to sign on the papers, his assistant walked forward and whispered
something to his ears. After listening to that, the man frowned.
"What's the matter, Mr. Frieda?" Ralphy Xia looked at him and asked.
Frieda looked back at Ralphy Xia and smiled, "Sorry about that, President Xia. We have something
coming up and I'm afraid we have to postpone this signing of contract!"
"Postpone? Why?" Ralphy Xia was puzzled and in disbelief.
Frieda did not explain the reason and simply looked at him apologetically. He took his documents and
left.
Ralphy Xia stood up and looked at Frieda's back. The man was erupting in anger!
He slammed the contract on the floor and his gentle face was twisted in wrath.
ALISTAIR MU!!!!!
I will not give up just like this! I will not surrender!!!
After Alistair Mu and Jack walked out, they got into the car.
Jack asked in frustration, "Sir, are you really giving up on such a good chance?"
Alistair Mu said nothing and his face was tensed.
"Sir, that is for Miss Xia… Right?" Jack asked quietly.
The moment he mentioned that, Alistair Mu glared at him right away, "Do not tell anyone about this!"
Jack nodded helplessly, "I understand!"
"Let's go back!"
Jack said no more and drove back.
Jack knew how important the CS project was for Alistair Mu. But he hadn't expected that the man to
give it up for Annabelle Xia!
It seemed that Annabelle Xia was truly important for Alistair Mu…
……
In the night.
In the private club.
Alistair Mu drank glass after glass. Although he had been drinking a lot, the man's gorgeous face
showed no sign of drunkenness.
Sean looked at him, "Alistair, are you really giving up just like that?"
That wasn't like Alistair Mu at all.
Alistair Mu lowered his head and didn't say anything. He simply lifted his glass again and continued
drinking.
At that time, Jerry Kuang came over with a glass of wine in his hand. The man was scornful, "This
Ralphy Xia is really bold! He even dare to incriminate you and frame your company!"
"The reason behind his fearlessness was because he knew he has a triumph card, the good sister of
his!" Thomas Mo scoffed and took a sip of his drink.
If someone with Alistair Mu's influence and resources wanted to retaliate, Ralphy Xia would be
annihilated. The only reason he hadn't do anything was because of Annabelle Xia.
"Sister? Fortunately Annabelle Xia wasn't the real daughter of the Xia family, otherwise, things will get
more complicated!" Jerry Kuang said.
"I'm afraid it was exactly because she wasn't the real daughter that made it so complicated…" Sean
frowned and muttered silently.
"Alistair, are you giving up just like that?" Sean asked worriedly. If Yun Rui were to take up this follows
accusation, the company would just come to ruin.
After their unethical conduct and criminal record, who dares to work with them again?
Alistair Mu sat quietly and drank his wine. After a long while, he answered in frustration, "Let me think Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
about it!"
When Jerry Kuang looked at him, he couldn't help but sighed, "It seemed that love isn't all perfect!"
At the very least, the man seemed to be put into a difficult choice right now.
If he were to choose sides, he would definitely hurt the other. However, if he were to simply concede for
Annabelle Xia's sake, then Yun Rui, the company Alistair Mu spent countless effort and investment
would go to naught, alongside hundreds of employees and their families!
"Ralphy Xia!" Thomas Mo gritted his teeth, "This time round he had managed to get the upper hand of
Alistair…" As he said that, he bottomed up his drink.
When the friends heard that, they learnt a lesson. If they were to look for a wife, they must make sure
to not look for a woman with such background. Otherwise, it would spell potential trouble in the future.
"Even if I can't get that project from CS, I will make sure he doesn't get it either!" Alistair Mu said
suddenly. The man's seemingly tranquil eyes had a storm brewing inside. He wasn't someone that
concedes meekly. He was the exact opposite, if anyone were to challenge him, he would retaliate ever
so fiercely. Due to Annabelle Xia, maybe he wouldn't completely destroy Ralphy Xia. But if he weren't
able to get the project, he wouldn't let Ralphy Xia have it as well.
