Chapter 75 The Meeting between William and Phillip
After Rudy failed to teach Ann a lesson that day, not only did she lose her job, but also she was locked
up by Phillip's people and tortured by those gangsters.
Angry and scared, she even wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge.
Later, it was said that the Moore Group had canceled their cooperation with the William Group.
The William Group's share price plummeted. The president personally came put to apologize and even
promised to send Jennifer abroad. He guaranteed that she would not be allowed to return home within
ten years.
Only then did Rudy know who she had offended. She was so scared that she didn't dare to go out for
this period of time.
She regretted participating in their revenge.
It was only when she felt uncomfortable and sick that she went to the hospital.
After a check-up, she was told that she was pregnant.
Thinking about the time, she thought it was very likely due to those gangsters that night. Her face NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
instantly turned pale.
Just as she was about to tell the doctor to have the abortion, she received a phone call from Betty.
Betty asked her why Rudy hadn't seen her for so long.
Rudy originally wanted to sign the surgery list but stopped.
She had been flattering Betty during this period of time. She noticed that although Betty lived in an
ordinary place, the clothes and jewelry she wore were all valuable. She suddenly had an idea.
"Auntie, I ... I'm in the hospital ... I seem to be pregnant...."
...
Inside the apartment.
Seeing Phillip sitting on the carpet with his legs crossed and patiently doing jigsaw puzzles with Nikki,
Ann frowned slightly.
Ever since Phillip moved in next door, he came to her house quite often for various reasons.
Even if he was refused, he could use all sorts of methods to lure Nikki to open the door for him.
Apart from sleeping, it could be considered that Phillip, Carson, and Jackson were stationed at her
house.
Ann was thinking about this when Jackson, who was doing his homework on the table, pulled her
sleeve.
"Miss Ann, something got burnt."
When Ann came back to her senses, her expression changed. Her fish!
When she ran to the kitchen to save her roasted fish, the sound of opening the door sounded outside.
Then, the door was pushed open.
William was holding a large bag of fruits. When he saw Phillip and three children sitting in the living
room, he was stunned.
Phillip was also slightly stunned when he saw William, but he quickly adjusted his emotion. He stood up
and greeted William politely.
"Hello, Uncle. I'm Phillip. Ann is cooking in the kitchen."
William nodded, but in his heart, he was puzzled about the relationship between Ann and the man in
front of him.
He was someone who had experienced a lot in the business world. Judging from the handsome
appearance of the young man and his noble aura, William thought he couldn't come from an ordinary
family.
William had seen Karl's photographs before. He didn't look like the man in the front.
However, from the young man's words and deeds, he seemed to be very familiar to Ann.
"Dad?"
When Ann came out with the dishes, she saw William and Phillip standing face to face. She also felt a
little uncomfortable, so she hurriedly put the dishes on the dining table and walked over.
"Dad, you come so suddenly! Why didn't you tell me?"
William put aside the fruits in his hand and said, "I stay at home all day and have nothing to do. So I
want to look for a job. I just come to see you and my granddaughter!"
His gaze fell on Nikki, who was hugging Phillip's thigh intimately. Nikki widened her big eyes and looked
at him curiously. William frowned slightly, and then he turned to look at Ann.
"Ann, where's Karl?"
Ann hadn't told William that she had broken up with Karl.
Her father's heart was not healthy, and he had been in prison for so many years. Ann was afraid that
her father would not be able to accept it, so she hid the truth from him.
Now that she was asked, her heart tightened. She tried to dodge William's gaze, for she was afraid that
he would discover something.
"There's been some conflicts between us recently. He's not here...."
Suddenly!
Phillip suddenly chuckled, making William turn to look at him doubtfully.
Ann stiffened as well.
Seeing Phillip's unhappy face, she knew that he was dissatisfied.
Afraid that Phillip would say or do something, Ann could only secretly pull Phillip's sleeve. Her eyes
carried a hint of pleading.
Phillip looked at her hand pulling his sleeve, and his gaze fell on her face.
He narrowed his eyes. He knew that there was something in her mind that she found hard to disclose.
Phillip pursed his lips and suppressed his dissatisfaction. Then he bent down to pick up Nikki and sat
down on the sofa.
William turned around and asked Ann, "What is the relationship between Phillip and you?"
Ann felt Phillip's gaze towards her and she answered in a stiff tone.
"He's a neighbor who just moved in. Because his children and Nikki are studying in the same
kindergarten, we become friends."
William turned to look at Carson and Jackson, who were lying on the table and doing their homework
together.
Only then did he heave a sigh of relief, but he still warned Ann.
"Ann, it's normal for young people to have some conflicts. But after all, you have been together for so
many years, and you have a child. You can't be impulsive. If Karl is not at home, you should keep your
distance from other men. Otherwise, you will be easily looked down up by others."
Ann felt the atmosphere getting tenser, so she hurriedly replied.
"Dad, don't worry. I know."
