My Killing President -
Chapter 500 Ring 5
On the other hand, the moment Alistair saw Annabelle, he walked over and said, "You just came back? Have you eaten yet? Are you hungry?" The man's tone was as per usual, filled with care and warmth. As if nothing happened earlier today.
Annabelle continued to stand unmovingly and answered, "Not yet!"
"Let's go back and eat something!" After that, Alistair held her hand and walked inside.
Annabelle didn't say anything and followed him.
When she looked at his side view, she kept quiet and followed him inside the house.
"You go and take a rest first, I will go make dinner!" Alistair said.
Make dinner?
When Annabelle heard that, she was puzzled. The woman even thought that she heard the man wrongly.
The moment she recalled his 'great achievements' in the kitchen previously, she stopped him, "Just let me do it!" When Alistair heard that, he was stunned. At that time, Annabelle had already got up and walked towards the kitchen. Alistair stood in the living room and watched as Annabelle walked away. The man's eyebrows knitted closely.
After the dinner was prepared, the two of them ate quietly. They didn't have much of an appetite and they ate just a little.
After cleaning up, Annabelle stood on the balcony and Alistair looked at her from behind. After that, the man walked forward and hugged her from behind. "Are you still angry?"
When Annabelle heard that, she was stunned, "No!"
"I will fire her tomorrow, okay? I swear I will never show any emotions towards her. Please don't get angry anymore, okay?" Alistair said.
The man's word surprised Annabelle.
That was their first quarrel. Logically speaking, with Alistair's arrogance, he would never concede. But he humbled himself now, and Annabelle was taken by surprise. Her long eyelashes flickered and she turned back and looked at Alistair, "I wasn't angry!"
A simple gesture and Alistair understood her.
"Is something bothering you?"
Annabelle nodded.
"What is it?"
After momentary consideration, Annabelle decided to tell him.
"Do you know that there was a ring in Cole Ho's crime scene?" Annabelle asked.
The moment Alistair heard that, he was stunned. The man looked at Annabelle and there was a flash of surprise in his eyes, "You found out too?"
Alistair's answer surprised Annabelle.
She frowned, "Have you known about it long ago?"
Alistair didn't deny and he nodded.
When Annabelle heard that, she didn't know why but she felt disappointed, "If you have known that, why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I still haven't found any evidence that linked the ring to Cole Ho." Alistair said.
When Annabelle heard that, she was stunned. But after that she smiled, "Because that ring belongs to Yoi, right?"
When Alistair saw her backing away, he frowned.
""You don't believe me?"
"Why didn't you tell me?" Annabelle asked back.
"I want to tell you after I secured enough evidences!"
""Really?" Annabelle looked at him and asked back.
Alistair started to feel a bad feeling and he walked forward, "I know no matter how I explain myself, you wouldn't believe me. However, at least let me tell you this. The reason I hid this from you wasn't for Yoi!" Annabelle stared at him and didn't speak.
The woman's mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to do.
At that time, Alistair looked at her and said, "Let's not quarrel again, okay? I do not wish to quarrel with you because of this. I admit my fault for not telling you that. However, I did that for your safety!"000
