Chapter 24 Payback
Chapter 24 Payback
“Miss Xia, if you don’t want to be fired, then I suggest you watch your tongue…” She whispered softly
to Annabelle with a threatening tone.
After that, she gave Annabelle a warning glare and strode off towards Mu’s office.
Annabelle was rendered speechless by her warning. And she can almost imagine how Yoi was going to
grumble later in Mu’s office.
She couldn’t care less and carried her drink back to her desk, ready to tidy up and leave office.
Once she was back to her seat, a few colleagues gathered around nosily.
“Hey Annabelle, did you just quarrelled with Yoi?” They asked impatiently.
Annabelle was dazzled at their reaction and she asked genuinely, “Umm… Does it look like I quarrelled
with her?”
“She looked furious!”
“Well… unreasonable people are always angry!” Annabelle joked playfully.
The crowd burst into a giggle, Annabelle had always appeared to be professional and courteous, and
her humour caught them off guard.
“But Annabelle, you should know that not only is she the young lady of the Han’s group, she is also our
president’s lover, a lasting one at that! It’s best if you don’t get on her bad side…”
For her fellow colleagues, Yoi has shown the potential to be Mrs. Mu, ergo any conflict with her is
unthinkable.
However, little did they knew, Annabelle and Yoi had already clashed fiercely on her first day!
Annabelle nodded and thanked them properly. She whole heartedly appreciated their kind gesture to
warn her.
In the president’s office.
Yoi pouted her lips and whined, “What bad luck today!”
Mu paused at his work and averted his attention to the complaining woman. He scanned through her
and asked softly, “Why? Is anything wrong?”
“I almost got splashed again!” She said in a grumpy face.
“Well luckily, you came out perfectly fine.” Mu heartened her up.
What aroused her anger was the fact that the culprit was Annabelle. But she did not wish to mention
that.
Yoi drew closer to Mu and threw her arms around his neck, brushing her body intimately against his
and caressed him gently, “Alistair, why is Annabelle still working here?”
And Mu instantly guessed what happened.
“Had she cause trouble for you again?” Mu stared intently at her and asked. It shouldn’t be too far off
that the person who almost splash on her was Annabelle.
Yoi nodded sullenly.
She tightened her hug and purred softly, “I really dislike that woman, she’s so crude…”
“I let her stay because she is still useful to me…” Mu smiled mysteriously.
Yoi knew Mu will never make insignificant remarks, she looked at him with curiosity and confusion,
waiting patiently for an explanation.
“Now, she is in charge of the Yuan Shi Group’s case!”
The rest was self-explanatory.
Yoi’s eyes widened in surprise, “Are…are you serious?!” She knew all too well, just how dreadful and
vile that CEO of Yuan Shi Group was. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
It was beyond her wildest guess that Mu had assigned her to this task.
“Now she is proceeding with the contract.” Mu replied, his lips curled up thinking about her.
“But… why did she accept?”
“Because she didn’t have a choice.”
Mu’s clarification sent Yoi into complete bliss. How sweet of Mu that he had planned it all out to get
payback for her! She leaned completely on him and melted in his arms.
“Thank you Alistair, I am so touched that you went this far for me…” She whispered tenderly.
As Mu felt a warm, moist sensation down his neck, he just smirked secretly and kept
silent. lightnoveldaily.com.
