My Killing President
Chapter 554 Invaluable 5

"Why? Are you home?" Ralphy asked.

"Yeah, I came home together with Alistair!" Annabelle added.

The man was elated when he first heard that she was home. But after he heard Alistair's name, his heart sank.

"Got it!"

"Are you coming home?" Annabelle asked..

"Yeah, I'll go over right now!"

"Okay, we will wait for you to eat together!" Annabelle said.

"Okay!"

After hanging up the call, Ralphy sat in his car and looked forward. The man's eyes were flickering in thoughts. A few minutes later, he started the car and drove home. In the Xia household.

After Annabelle ended the phone call, she sat there in deep thoughts.

Ralphy couldn't hide that from her. The phone call from earlier had explained sufficiently.

What about Dorie?

The woman knew Dorie's feeling towards Ralphy.

If Dorie were to know about that, she would be devastated. Annabelle didn't know if she should tell her or not. It seemed that either way would hurt Dorie. Sigh, she hadn't thought that Ralphy would do that...

As she was contemplating, Alistair approached her. When the man saw that she was absent-minded, he sat beside her and said smilingly, "What are you thinking?" Annabelle was stunned and she came back to her senses. The woman looked at Alistair and smiled back, "It's nothing. Why? The two of you stopped playing?" "Yeah, taking a break!" Alistair chuckled.

Annabelle nodded, "My brother is coming back soon!"

Alistair nodded in acknowledgement. The brother wasn't his favorite.

"I could see that you were having a good time with my dad!" Annabelle chuckled.

Alistair's lips curled up smugly, "That's for sure. There is no one I couldn't impress!" "Cocky!"

Alistair laughed.

The two of them continued to chat for a while. And Ralphy came home.

"Bro, welcome home!" When Annabelle saw Ralphy, she cheered. As if nothing happened over the phone. Ralphy was the one feeling diffident.

Annabelle nodded.

Alistair looked at Ralphy and said, "President Xia is quite the hard-working man, working overtime until now?!"

Ralphy was stunned and he answered right away, "There's no choice, too many pending works!" After that, he added, "I shall go get change, be right back!" Annabelle nodded.

The man was wearing a suit he wore to Yun Rui's anniversary party. It was obvious that he had spent the night outside.

If he was in the office, his assistant would bring him a set of change...

Ralphy went upstairs.

At that time, Waynie looked at them, "All right, the food is ready, let's eat!"

The family went to the dining table and seated themselves.

"Mum, let's wait for brother!"

"There's no need to wait for him. He will come down shortly and let us eat first!" Waynie said.

The family got themself seated right away.

At that time, Alistair's phone rang. He took up his phone and answered it.

After a simple acknowledgement, he ended the call.

"What is it? Company matters?" Annabelle looked at Alistair and asked.

Alistair simply smiled and shook his head. After that, he looked at Teneria and said, "Dad, I have a good news to tell you!"

Alistair didn't have any problem calling Teneria 'dad', as if it was the most natural thing. Teneria was even used to it too. The man looked at him and asked, "What good news?"

"The Xia Group have been eyeing at that piece of land in Holly for a long time, right? I just got approval for it and I plan to transfer the ownership to the Xia Group!"
