My Killing President
Chapter 424 Triumphant 3

On the other side.

Annabelle sat in the car and she wasn't in a good mood.

Alistair was driving silently and the two of them weren't talking. Their cheery atmosphere earlier was completely gone.

Finally, Alistair was the one that broke the silent awkwardness. The man said, "What are you thinking?"

"Nothing!" Annabelle answered with a cold tone. It was obvious that the woman was angry.

The moment Alistair heard that, he frowned, "Did you just get angry at me because of Song Jing?"

"I simply feel troubled with the way you speak!"

"Such as?"

"Alistair, others might misunderstand with you saying that. Moreover, since when had I agreed to remarry you?" Annabelle looked at him and said.

"In another words, are you afraid that Song Jing might misunderstand?" Alistair asked.

"That's not what I meant..." Annabelle felt that she was unable to explain her mind.

"Then what do you mean?" Alistair asked back.

Annabelle was speechless. She just didn't know what she should say.

She was unable to give an explanation to that.

"Forget it. There's no point talking about that!" Annabelle said as she directed her gaze outside the window. She was feeling an unnamed frustration inside.

As Alistair glanced at her with the corner of his eyes, he parked his car by the road side.

He stretched out his hand to grab Annabelle's shoulder and made eye contact with her.

"Annabelle, I do not wish for any unhappiness between us. And I do not want to quarrel with you because of Song Jing!" Alistair said.

When Annabelle heard Alistair's words and saw his sincere eyes, she was lost in thought. After sometime, she replied, "Then you should learn how to be more respectful!" That reply stopped Alistair from continuing what he wanted the say.

The man said no more and started the car to continue their journey.

They did not say another word on their way to the company.

Even when they reached the company, they maintained some distance as Annabelle followed behind him.

When they got into the office, the two separated.

Alistair went back to his office and Annabelle went back to her own desk. None of them said anything to the other.

They looked like a couple that just quarreled.

Annabelle was concentrated in work for the whole morning. When it was about lunch time, someone came to deliver flowers.

There was a card and it was from Alistair, it didn't say anything about lunch but there were a few simple words on it.

Annabelle looked at the flowers and she was stunned. At that time, she turned her head to the watch on her wrist and she recalled the previous night...

When she was in deep thought, Covi approached her, "Annabelle, I am so envious that you get to receive flowers every day!"

Annabelle smiled and moved the flower aside.

At that time, Covi noticed the watch she was wearing right away, "Annabelle, since when did you buy a new watch?" She said that as she examined Annabelle's watch. Annabelle was surprised. She looked at her watch and smiled, "I didn't buy it but someone gave it to me!"

"Really? It looks nice and a little... Familiar! I think I have seen it before!" After saying that, Covi made a pondering expression, she was struggling hard to recall something. At that moment, Annabelle realized that her watch was the same design as the one Alistair was wearing. If Covi were to notice it, she would definitely misunderstand... Annabelle smiled and hid her watch, "Really? I think there are just a lot of similar designs around!" After that, the woman cheered, "Alright now, let's hurry and get back to work!" "No, I am sure about that! Otherwise I would definitely be able to tell the brand. Hmm... Where have I seen it..." Covi pondered.00
