My Killing President -
Chapter 38 Jealousy
Ralphy nodded in approval. However, his eyes narrowed to a slit and he had an idea in mind...
Did Alistair really forgot about her?
Then why did Ralphy still feel an inexplicable anxiety...
Their divorce two years ago was a beginning to a great start. Ralphy swore to himself, he will never let the two get together again!
No matter what's the cost!
Annabelle noticed her brother's grim face and asked, "Brother, what are you thinking?"
Ralphy was brought back to sense and he quickly hid his thought, he smiled to Annabelle and prattled, "Oh nothing, I was thinking where to bring you for dinner. How about it? Anything you want to eat specifically? It's my treat!"
"Hurray!" Annabelle raised both her arms to a V, "I heard there is a new sushi shop around the corner, I want to try it!"
"Alright, sushi it is!"
The two got up and walked out side by side.
Even though the siblings had been separated for a long while, but there was no air of awkwardness whatsoever between them, only a homely feeling of familiarity and closeness.
Aaaannd, the Charlie Brown karma strikes again!
Coincidentally Alistair and Yoi just reached together, and he saw them walking out the coffee house together. Annabelle and the man seemed to interact intimately and she was putting on a ray of sunshine on her face.
Yoi noticed them too.
Annabelle again!
Everytime when she saw her it was like bull seeing red.
"Oh, if it isn't that Annabelle," and her sight moved on to scrutinize the man next to her, "Isn't that man the president of Xia Group, Ralphy? Why are they...can it be that they are seeing each other!?" Yoi deliberately heightened her tone to pique Mu's attention.
Her girlfriend-instinct was always tingling whenever Mu looks at Annabelle. His gaze was unnatural and fervent even.
This was a perfect opportunity to 'jog' him a bit.
Even without her deliberate attempt, Mu had been eyeing vehemently at the two.
Wasn't Annabelle just back from London? And she is already seeing some other guys!
Moreover, it's Ralphy!
Mu thinned a humourless smile on his sullen face and couldn't avert his gaze from the two walking outside.
They seemed to have such blissful chemistry going on and looked so comfortable together, like a perfect casting for a Nicholas Sparks' book.
"Why all of a sudden sushi?" Ralphy asked.
"My colleague recommended it strongly. So I was thinking to give it a try."
"Alright, sushi it is then!"
Ralphy searched for the sushi shop online and made call to reserve for two.
After that, he opened the car door for Annabelle, and escorted her familiarly into his sedan.
Mu and Yoi were still in their car, watching them the entire time. As their car drove off, Yoi's lips curled up scornfully. "Looks like they have an unusual relationship," She said, "I'm impressed with this woman. She just came back and already managed to score the cakeboss from Xia Group!"
Mu gripped on the steering wheel, his eyes squinted at the leaving sedan and harrumphed, "What's so good about scoring a Ralphy? It's not like she scored me!"
Yoi's pupil dilated in shock hearing his words...‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
