Chapter 266 Explain 4
“Why?” Yoi asked. The office was spreading rumors that Alistair did that because of her. The woman
felt humiliated.
“There was no reason!” Alistair answered. The man was not interested to argue with her.
Yoi stared at the man. She knew he was always unbiased at work but she hadn’t expected such extent.
The woman then said, “I shall get back to work now.”
“Ok.” Alistair answered and Yoi turned around and left.
Alistair sat on his desk and watched as the woman left. His eyes dimmed slowly… Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Yoi had made appearance in the company frequently in the past and she wasn’t the most popular
person. After a whole day working alongside her, her arrogant attitude had caused lot of dissatisfaction.
However, there were a few that approached her and fawn over her because of her identity.
Nonetheless, she was still the daughter of the Hans group, the girlfriend of Alistair. Therefore, there
was quite a number of people that gathered around her.
However, Annabelle was not included amongst them.
For the rest of the day, Annabelle simply ignored her and focused on her own work. But it was not the
same for Yoi. The woman was always leering at Annabelle. As if she was afraid that she might do
something to harm her.
Annabelle had a habit. She would go to the pantry to make herself a cup of coffee every afternoon at
the same time.
Everyone that knew her was aware of that habit. Of course, Yoi was excluded.
When she was making coffee, she heard a sound from behind.
“You are quite on time!”
When Annabelle heard the voice, she turned her head back. The moment she noticed that it was
Alistair, she was stunned momentarily and she greeted him courteously, “president Mu!”
Alistair looked at Annabelle’s coffee and it seemed inviting.
The man then said, “make me a cup too!”
“……”
When Alistair saw that Annabelle was unwilling, he said, “your expression is suggesting that you are
unwilling!”
“President Mu, I am not your secretary!” Annabelle said.
“But I am your life savior!” Alistair corrected her.
“……”
Life savior again…
Annabelle could anticipate that Alistair would be using that on her for quite some time.
Therefore, Annabelle helplessly made another cup of coffee for Alistair.
“Please enjoy yourself, life savior!” Annabelle said smilingly.
Alistair played in concert and took over the cup. He took a sip and was pleasantly surprised with the
taste. The man nodded in approval, “It’s not too bad!”
Annabelle simply smiled back, “If that’s the case, please enjoy yourself, President Mu. I shall excuse
myself!” Annabelle wanted to leave before Alistair said anything.
“Wait a while!” Once she took a few steps, Alistair called out from behind.
“Is there anything else, President Mu?” Annabelle asked manneredly.
“Are you avoiding me!?”
“……”
“No!”
“Then why are you leaving the moment I came!?”
“I do not want others to misunderstand and I do not want others to spread rumors!” Annabelle said
slowly and Alistair could feel the distance in her words.
Alistair could notice something was off right away.
“Are you referring to Yoi?” Alistair stared at her and asked.
Annabelle smiled, “To anyone that cares!”
Alistair was most annoyed whenever Annabelle behaved so courteously and distancing towards him.
He felt as if he had no way to get close to this woman.
He pondered for a moment and walked towards her. He looked at Annabelle and said, “Actually… I did
not know that she is joining the company.”
When Annabelle heard the man, she was puzzled. But she replied smilingly, “President Mu, you don’t
have to explain that to me. You are my boss and I am your employee. There’s no such need for the
higher ups to explain things to their underlings.”
Her words frustrated Alistair. The man frowned and he called out furiously, “Annabelle…”
“President Mu, you don’t have to be so loud, I can hear you perfectly well!” Annabelle
