My Killing President

Chapter 677 Objective

Annabelle nodded and said no more. The couple went back to their place.

After Annabelle came out from shower, she saw that Alistair was standing in the balcony. Annabelle let

her hair down and walked towards him.

"Are you still worried about Nancy?" Annabelle stood behind him and asked.

When Alistair heard Annabelle's voice, he turned his head back and wrapped his arms around her,

"Yeah, I am worried about her. But I was just worried about her well-being, nothing else!"

"Mr. Mu, if all of your mind was worrying about another woman, how do you expect me not to

overthink?" Annabelle stretched out her hands and hugged him back.

"Nancy saved me a few times in the past. Now that she became like this, it is impossible for me not to

worry. However, she is just like a sister for me. Nothing else!" Alistair explained.

After hearing his explanation, Annabelle smiled, "Okay, I understand. I didn't mind at all!"

Alistair looked at her and smiled.

"I don't think it is a good idea to leave Nancy as she is!"

"I will inform her daddy to bring her back!"

"We are getting married soon. Is it good to send her back now?" Annabelle asked.

"I don't know. But I do not wish to see any ‘surprises' during our wedding!" Alistair said.

Annabelle looked at him and nodded with a smile.

"Okay, it's getting late now. Let's sleep!" Alistair said.

"Okay!" And the couple went to bed.

As they lied on the bed, they didn't continue to talk but they were thinking about the same thing.

Early the next morning.

Annabelle was still sleeping but Alistair had already prepared breakfast and went to the hospital.

When he reached the hospital, it was already nine in the morning. Nancy was already up.

"How do you feel?" Alistair looked at Nancy and asked.

Nancy had a pale face and she looked back at Alistair coldly, "I'm fine!"

"Your body isn't in the best state. You shouldn't be running around like that!" Alistair said.

"You don't have to feel responsible for me, nor is there a need to feel guilty for what happened that

time. Alistair, you don't have to take care of me and I do not need your pity!" Nancy looked at him and

said.

"I wasn't pitying you or taking care of you out of guilt!"

"Then what is it? You care for me?" Nancy raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Yes!" Alistair did not deny. He stared into Nancy's eyes with a deep gaze, "It is most normal for a

brother to be worried about his sister!" Alistair said.

Brother, sister…

When Nancy heard that, she sneered coldly.

That wasn't what she wanted!

Not at all!

She tried her best to control her emotion. She tilted her head and looked at him, "Then thank you very

much for your care. I will make sure to be well!" Nancy said that pretentiously like a stranger.

Alistair looked at her and his eyebrows furrowed deeply. He knew that Nancy was childish and

stubborn. There was just nothing anyone could do when she acts up. They could only hope for her self-

help and come to her own understanding.

At that time, the door to her ward was knocked and pushed opened.

"Nancy…" When Antonio Lu walked inside, he was stunned.

"President Mu, you are here as well!" Antonio Lu said.

Alistair didn't expect him to come and he stared at him. He thought that Nancy was simply using him

yesterday to show her temper. But now the man came.

"What are you doing here?" Alistair asked.

"I was the one that called him!" Right after Alistair asked that, Nancy answered him.

After that, she looked at Antonio Lu and smiled, "Darling, you are here! What did you bring with you?"

"There you go, breakfast!" Antonio Lu said.

"I am starving!"

Antonio Lu smiled and approached her, "Eat it while it's hot!"

After saying that, he opened it for her and put it on top of the over-bed table.

Nancy smiled happily.

Alistair sat beside and looked at them. The man didn't show any emotion.

"You must be worried sick about me yesterday?"

"Yeah!"

"Sorry about that…"

"Don't worry about it. As long as you are safe!" Antonio Lu said.

Nancy smiled at him. At that time, Alistair was completely ignored and they simply treated as if he was

transparent.

Antonio Lu felt awkward but Nancy couldn't care less.

When Alistair saw how ‘lovey-dovey' they were, he didn't know what to say, "All right then, I shall go

back now. Rest well!"

After saying that, he stood up and walked out.

"You don't have to worry about me. Xiao-an will be accompanying me for the time being. Just be

restful!" Nancy said.

Alistair was stunned for a while. He back faced her and didn't say anything. The man simply left.

Even when he was outside the door, he could still hear Nancy's voice, "Thank you, darling…"

When Antonio Lu went out, Alistair was still outside.

The man knew that Alistair was waiting for him and he approached him, "President Mu, are you waiting

for me?"

When Alistair heard him, he turned his head towards him, "Mr. Lu, I believe you know about Nancy's

condition. Why are you together with her?"

When Antonio Lu heard Alistair, he smiled, "President Mu, what do you think?"

"I don't care what are your objectives or agenda of being with her, nor do I care how the two of you

know each other. I simply want to warn you, if I were to find out you have any hidden motives, you

better clean your neck!" Alistair looked at him and said. His gaze was filled with threat.

Antonio Lu smiled, "Both Nancy and I know what we are doing!"

"That better be so. I simply look at the outcome!" After saying that, Alistair glanced coldly at him and

turned around to leave.

Antonio Lu stood in the same spot and looked as Alistair left. The man's gaze was intent but he didn't

say anything more.

When Alistair was driving to his company, Annabelle called.

"Why are you waking up so early?" Alistair asked.

"I have gotten enough sleep. By the way, how is Nancy? Is she awake?" Annabelle asked.

"Yeah, she is fine now!"

"That's great, are you still in the hospital?"

"I am on my way to the company!"

"Going to the company so early?"

"Now that she is fine, I don't see a need for me to stay there!" Alistair said indifferently.

Annabelle nodded, "All right then, drive safe. I'll call you later!"

"Okay!"

After hanging up the call, Annabelle continued to eat breakfast. After she was done, she felt a little

bored to be staying home alone. Therefore, she departed to Alistair's company.

At least, she could help out a little bit in the wedding preparation.

As she thought about that, Annabelle got to the company.

Alistair was in his office. When he saw Annabelle coming in, he smiled, "What are you doing here?"

"Why? Am I not welcomed?"

"How I hope I could bring you by my side everywhere!" Alistair chuckled.

Annabelle smiled, "I am just bored to stay home alone. I might as well come and see if I can help in

anything!"

"Do you really want to help?"

Annabelle nodded seriously.

At that time, Alistair passed her a list, "This is the guest list. Miss Xia, do you want to have a look?"

Annabelle took the list from his hand and nodded, "No problem, I will definitely get this done!"

After saying that, she kissed Alistair's lips and walked towards the couch.

As Alistair sat behind his desk and looked at her smile, the man was in a good mood. All of his

gloominess was swept away.

And so, Annabelle started to review the guest list while Alistair worked. The husband and wife did their

respective work and they had a quiet but comfortable time together.

At that time, Annabelle looked at the name list and recalled something. She raised her head and called

out, "Alistair!"

"Yes?"

"Why didn't I see Mr. Kaleb?"

"Kaleb Hua?"

"Yes!" Annabelle nodded.

"Why? You want him to attend our wedding?" Alistair asked.

Annabelle nodded, "He is my life savior and he had helped me tremendously. I think it is only

appropriate to invite him!" Annabelle said seriously.

When Alistair looked at her response, he smiled, "Don't worry about that. I have already sent him his

invitation card. This is the second name list…"

Annabelle, "…"

There were almost 100 names on the list, and that was the second list?

He was really trying to make it as grand as possible!

"I don't even know most of the names here!"

"Just do it as you see fit, I have already sent out the invitation card to the important ones!"

Annabelle nodded, "All right then. If I missed anyone, don't blame me!"

Alistair smiled, "Just choose it randomly. If you feel like it, you can even discard the entire list!"

"Okay!" Annabelle replied with a smile. Although she said that, she didn't half-assed with the list. She

continued to review the guest list and searched all relevant business partners with Yun Rui and also

potential customers or partners.

After sometime, Annabelle was done and she passed the list back to Alistair.

"So fast?" Alistair asked.

Annabelle nodded.

Alistair took over and had a look. He simply took a glance and remember everything.

"How did you do that?"

"What?"

"All of the people you selected are those I wanted to invite!"

Annabelle smiled, "Most of the guests that I invited had some sort of business relationship with Yun Rui

and I feel that it is important to invite them. The rest was showing good potential and has a good

reputation. Although we didn't have any business cooperation, you have so many businesses and we

might be bumping heads somewhere. It is good to show some goodwill and know more people!"

Annabelle said.

When Alistair heard her, he simply hugged her and made her sat on his lap.

"Miss Xia, it seems that you know my thoughts very well. No, more accurately, you know my company

very well!"

Annabelle simply poked Alistair with a finger, "No no no, Mr. Mu, don't you forget that I am the largest

shareholder of this company now. I am the real President Xia and you are simply a worker!" Annabelle

said with a smile.

When Alistair heard that, he laughed, "Wow, it is so unexpected that I will end up depending on my

wife!"

"Therefore, Mr. Mu, make sure you treat me well. Otherwise, I will kick you out from Yun Rui!"

Annabelle looked at him ‘threateningly'. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"My darling, will you really do that?"

"That depends on how you treat me!"

At that time, Alistair squinted his eyes, "Don't worry, I will make sure to show you loads of love…" After

saying that, he got closer and kissed Annabelle's lips…

When Annabelle saw that he wanted to do more, she hurriedly escaped from his hug.

"Mr. Mu, this is workplace. Don't fool around here!" Annabelle warned him.

When Alistair heard her, he was a little frustrated but there was just nothing he could do. Since he was

just an ‘employee' now.

When the two of them were having fun, his phone on the desk rang.

Alistair took a look at the number on the screen and answered it.

"Hello…"

When Alistair heard from the other party, he frowned, "Okay, I understand. Just let her be!"

After hanging up the phone, Annabelle looked at him and asked, "What's wrong? Did anything

happen?"

"Nancy wants to get discharged!" Alistair said.

"And you agree?"

"Even if I don't, she would just sneak out again. Why shouldn't I?" Alistair said.

Annabelle looked at him and she knew that Alistair was out of option. She looked at him and raised an

eyebrow, "Is she alone?"

"Antonio Lu is with her!"

Antonio Lu…

Annabelle repeated his name, "The man from last night?"

Alistair nodded.

Annabelle was surprised. She thought that it was a one-time thing that Nancy did it on purpose to

provoke Alistair. She didn't expect them to maintain contact.

"What about that Antonio Lu's character?" Annabelle asked.

Alistair shook his head, "I don't know!"

Annabelle frowned and she was in deep thought.

At that time, Alistair looked at her and said, "It's okay, don't get troubled over it. Otherwise our son

might get affected. Let's just think of what to eat for lunch instead!"

Alistair didn't want Annabelle to feel troubled for Nancy's problem.

Annabelle nodded with a smile, "Okay!"

In the noon, Annabelle and Alistair went for lunch together.

When they were eating and chatting, someone interrupted them.

"Alistair, sister Annabelle, what a coincidence!"

When Alistair and Annabelle heard that voice, they turned their head towards the source. They saw

Nancy holding Antonio Lu's arm and they were standing right next to them.

Annabelle simply looked at them and didn't know what to say. After that, she glanced over at Alistair.

Alistair continued to eat his steak classily, "What a coincidence indeed!"

"I just got discharged and Xiao-an wanted to bring me here to celebrate. I didn't expect to see the two

of you here!" Nancy cheered.

"You should watch out what you eat!" Annabelle said.

Nancy nodded with a smile, "Got it. We shouldn't interrupt the two of you now!" After saying that, she

looked at Antonio Lu and said, "Let's go over that side!" After saying that, the two of them walked away.

At that time, Annabelle looked at Alistair and the man maintained the same uncaring expression. He

was completely unbothered.

Throughout the lunch, Annabelle didn't know what to say.

Both of them could tell that Nancy was doing that on purpose.

She hadn't mentioned knowing a person like that at all. She simply met him in the bar and got into a

relationship with him. It was simply too outrageous and no one could believe her.

Therefore, considering the circumstances, that was only one possible objective of her doing that.

It was to provoke Alistair.

"Why aren't you speaking?" As Alistair was driving, he turned his head towards Annabelle and asked.

Annabelle looked back at him, "Alistair, you should understand why Nancy is doing that, right?"

When Alistair heard Annabelle, he tilted his head and held her hand, "You don't have to think so much.

Whatever her reasons, it wouldn't affect us!"

Alistair said that as he was worried that Annabelle might overthink.

"She was doing that to provoke you. We don't even know anything about this Antonio Lu!" Annabelle

said.

"That is her choice. No matter what her motivation was, she should be responsible for the

consequences of her own actions!" Alistair looked at her and said.

"If… If anything were to happen to Nancy, won't you feel guilty?" Annabelle asked.

"She saved me and got into such a health complication, I am guilty about that. But if you are referring

to what she is doing now, I don't. I tried to stop her from doing that. But she stubbornly insisted. She is

an adult now and she needed to be responsible for her actions!" Alistair enunciated.

After hearing what the man said, Annabelle nodded in agreement.

"But, are you really not angry?" Annabelle asked.

"For what?"

"That Nancy purposely get a boyfriend just to provoke you. You should be able to tell that!"

Alistair held her hand tightly, "I'm angry because she was simply wasting her time. It wouldn't change

anything at all!"

"But I wouldn't get angry with her for being with another man. If I even feel the tiniest bit of emotion

from that, I don't deserve your love…" Alistair said lovingly.

When Annabelle heard that, she was cheered.

That was bothering her even if she didn't want to admit it. If Alistair was even a little troubled all jealous,

she wouldn't be able to accept it.

No matter what kind of excuses or reason he gives, she would feel uncomfortable and uneasy about

that. Now that she heard his explanation, she rested her heart.

As they continued to drive, the two of them didn't say anything but they continued to hold each other's

hand tightly.

Although Nancy was discharged, she continued to stay in the Mu House.

Madam Mu and the grandmother treated her well.

She would spend all of her day with Antonio Lu but she would to go home to sleep. It was Antonio Lu

that sent her home every day.

And she seemed to be passionately in love.

One day, Alistair went back to the Mu House to do something. Right after he got out the house, he saw

Antonio Lu sending Nancy home.

The three persons stood there and looked at each other.

In the end, it was Antonio Lu that broke the silent awkwardness as he greeted Alistair, "Hi, president

Mu!"

Alistair stood there in his black windbreaker, the man was carrying a pressuring presence. He had both

of his hands behind his back and didn't say anything. The man simply stared at the two of them.

At that time, Antonio Lu looked at Nancy and said, "It's pretty late now, I shall go back first!"

"Okay, drive safe! I will miss you!" Nancy said smilingly as she moved closer to kiss Antonio Lu's

cheek. She looked completely like a woman in love.

Antonio Lu smiled contentedly and nodded, "You too. Rest earlier and good night!"

"Good night!"

Antonio Lu looked at Alistair and didn't say anything more. He got back to his car and drove away.

After watching him left, Nancy walked inside.

"Are you being serious in this relationship?" When Nancy walked past Alistair, he asked her suddenly.

Nancy stopped and tilted her head to look at him, "What do you think?"

Alistair looked at her and said, "I don't know what is going on in your mind. But Nancy, I hope you don't

do anything that you will regret!"

Nancy looked at him and squinted his eyes, "What now? Now that you see me being happy, you are

upset?"

"If you are really happy, I will be happy for you!" Alistair said indifferently.

Hoho…

Nancy sneered in her heart.

She looked at him and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"I simply want to remind you!"

"I am not a kid anymore. I know what I am doing!" Nancy said and her tone was rude. However, that

was because she was restless.

She just couldn't help but feel upset after hearing him.

Alistair did not show the slightest bit of being upset. He maintained an uncaring attitude as if he was

completely unbothered.

"If that's the case, I can be restful. Rest earlier, I will go back first!" After saying that, Alistair wanted to

leave.

When Nancy stood there and listened to him, she felt pain in her heart. She raised her hand to hold her

chest and her eyes welled up in tears.

"Wait a while!" She said.

Alistair stopped by his steps and looked at her. His gorgeous side view looked mysterious in the night,

"Is there anything else?" He asked.

"I wish you and sister Annabelle could be happy for the rest of your life!" She enunciated.

"Thank you, we will!" After saying that, Alistair got in his car and started it. He drove away without

looking back.

Nancy simply stood at the same place and watched as he left. She couldn't hold back her tears

anymore and they broke out from the corner of her eyes.

Alistair, do you really don't care about me at all?

Not even a little bit…?
