“Annabelle!!” Alistair fumed at her.
“President Mu, can you tell me what is your intention for asking that?” Annabelle stared at him and asked.
“…”
The man simply stared right into her eyes and he didn’t know what to say.
Annabelle chuckled, “President Mu, it’s getting late now. If you don’t have anything important, I shall go up first!” After saying that, Annabelle turned around and left.
Alistair stood there and watched as Annabelle left. His eyebrows drew closer but he couldn’t say anything.
The man was completely frustrated.
For the coming few days, Song Jing had picked Annabelle to and back from work.
The two seemed to have a fun time chatting and laughing. They seemed to be very happy together.
After that, there were rumors starting in the company saying that Annabelle got together with Song Jing. However, Annabelle had never come forward to address it. The woman simply smiled when being asked. She was uninterested to entertain the rumors.
As Jack saw that Alistair hadn’t been doing anything, the man was anxious for his boss’ sake.
Alistair sat in the office and looked outside the window. The man was frowning and nobody knew what he was thinking.
At that time, Jack walked inside and saw Alistair’s back view. He had always thought that the president was a guileful and shrewd man. As he was facing the window silently, it just looked as if he was planning something bad.
“President Mu!” Jack greeted the man and delivered a piece of document, “This is the inventory list for this month.” After that, he placed it on his desk.
“Ok.” Alistair simply acknowledged him and said no more.
Jack stood there waiting. He didn’t know if he should leave or not.
The man knew that his president Mu was unhappy because of Annabelle. However, the boss simply did nothing and there was just nothing the little assistant could do.
Finally, the assistant went out helplessly.
Alistair stayed in his office until nighttime.
At that time, his phone rang.
When Alistair saw the number, he accepted the call.
“Grandma!”
“Alistair, where are you?” The grandmother asked.
“I am in the office!”
“Working overtime?” She asked.
Alistair was stunned for a moment and he said, “Yeah, there’s still something to handle!”
“Me and your parents are eating in the Red House, hurry and come over!” The grandmother said.
“No, grandma. You guys go on ahead!”
When grandma Mu heard that, she frowned and said, “Hurry and come over, bring Annabelle as well! It has been a long while since I last saw her!”
Alistair was stunned. Before he rejected the woman, he seemed to recall something and then he said, “All right then, I’ll give her a call.”
“Okay, grandma will be waiting for your call!” After saying that, they ended the call.
At that time, Alistair sat on his chair and spun his phone. He had been sitting in the office for one whole day. Finally, the man seemed to have regained some vigor.
After contemplating for some time, Alistair took up his phone and called Annabelle.
The woman picked up after a long time.
“Hello, I am Annabelle!”
When Alistair heard that, he was shocked to realize that he was excited and even nervous.
Damn it!
“Annabelle, where are you now?” Alistair asked directly.
When Annabelle found out that it was Alistair calling, she was stunned and she answered, “I am eating outside. What’s the matter?”
“Eating? With who? Song Jing?” Alistair bombarded her with questions.
“Is anything the matter?”
“Grandma wants to see you!” Alistair had no other choice but to use his grandmother as a front.
