My Killing President -
Chapter 705 Jealous
Annabelle Xia had a grim expression. What happened was simply inappropriate to share.
When Dorie saw that Annabelle Xia wasn't answering the question, she was assured that something happened, "Didn't she come in?" Annabelle Xia shook her head.
"Did the two of you have a conflict?" Dorie raised an eyebrow and asked.
When Annabelle Xia looked at Dorie's curious gaze, she pondered for a while and nodded. That was considered quite a conflict after all.
When Dorie saw that Annabelle Xia wasn't making explanation, she knew that it was not something to be shared and she didn't pressed further. Dorie simply thought that things was just weird.
"No matter what, take care of your own health!" At that time, Su said from the side.
Annabelle Xia nodded and looked at him, "I heard that you are starring in a TV drama, how was it?"
"Everything is going quite smoothly!"
"Good to hear. I heard that this drama is adapted from a popular novel and has quite the fan-based already. Not only that, it was one of the heavily invested films and I believe it will have a good production team!" Annabelle Xia said smilingly.
"If that's the case, I should really thank her!" As Su said that, he looked at Dorie and his eyes were gleaming in gentleness.
Dorie's mind was all jumbled up and she wasn't paying attention to their conversation. She simply looked at him and nodded.
When Annabelle Xia saw how Su looked at Dorie, she smiled heartily. It seemed that Dorie had found the right person. Now she could just be restful.
After staying there for some time, the friends left.
On their way back, Dorie was in deep thought. Su tilted his face and talked to her but she was completely unresponsive.
Su frowned and stretched forward his hand to rub her hair, "What were you thinking?"
"Huh?" Dorie came back to her senses and looked at Su. She blinked her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong with you? You have been acting weird ever since we visited Annabelle!" Su said.
Dorie blinked her eyes and pouted her lips, "Really?"
"What do you think?" Su asked back. His eyes were gleaming like a prized diamond. It was as if he was able to detect all the mind activity of Dorie.
When Su saw that Dorie wasn't speaking, he asked again, "What actually happened?"
Dorie decided to voice her mind, "Actually, I feel that what happened between Annabelle and Renee An was simply weird!"
"How so?"
"According to what I know, with Annabelle's temper, she would rarely get into conflict with anyone. It was just difficult to imagine that she would get into a conflict with Renee An. Furthermore, I could tell that they were close during Annabelle's wedding. Why would it turned out like that?" "Moreover, coincidentally it is during this sensitive time that Annabelle's birth was exposed. Everything... Don't you think it is too much of a coincidence?" Dorie looked at Su and asked.
Su was silent for a while. After that, he had a tensed expression as he asked, "What are you trying to say?"
"I simply think that things are a little odd..." Dorie voiced out a doubt. However, she didn't dare to share her bold guess.
"It was indeed, a little odd!" Su said agreeably. Renee An simply looked from afar in the hospital. That was just unnatural.
"Therefore, you also agree that they were acting weird, right?" Dorie asked anxiously.
Su nodded agreeably, "I simply think that Annabelle wasn't someone that makes enemies easily. Something must have happened, or maybe some misunderstanding!" Dorie looked at Su and nodded. That was exactly what she was thinking as well.
"Then, what do you think what happened?" Su looked at Dorie and asked. He believed that Dorie must have a guess by saying that.
"I..."
She looked at Su and blinked her eyes. She didn't know if she should say it.
Should she?
She looked at Su and didn't know how to say.
When Su looked at Dorie's struggle, he simply smiled, "If it's something private, you don't have to tell me!"
Dorie was hesitant at first, but after hearing that from Su, she felt guilty. After all, Su trusted her fully.
Dorie bit her lips and hesitated for a while, "It's not that. I am just not confident with my guess..."
Su's eyes lit up and he was trustful towards Dorie. It didn't matter if she tells him or not.
Dorie contemplated for a while and said, "I think that the reason for the conflict between Annabelle and Renee An was Ralphy Xia!"
When Su heard that name, his eyebrows knitted closely. He knew that Dorie had cried and got drunk for the man.
When Dorie saw that Su wasn't talking, she raised her head and looked at him, "What's wrong?"
Dorie didn't notice the flash of worry in Su eyes. The man simply lowered his gaze and looked at Dorie, "What are you trying to say?"
"I think that Ralphy Xia likes Annabelle Xia..."
Although Su had somewhat guessed that as well, he was still shocked after hearing that from Dorie.
"And so, Renee An found out about it and they quarreled?" Su raised an eyebrow and followed her hypothesis.
Dorie nodded right away. That was exactly her fault. After all, she had grew up together with them and she had a good idea of their relationship. If Annabelle Xia was Ralphy Xia's actual sister, it would be fine. However, the brotherly love was simply too much... Su's face was tensed and he seemed to be in deep thought.
"Was it too much for me to think like that?" Dorie asked. She was a little worried with her fault. That had shocked Su and also herself.
Su looked at Dorie, "I don't know!"
"I don't want to think about it as well but I just couldn't shake off the idea. Ever since I learnt of the news, the more I think of it, the more I arrived to that conclusion. Ralphy Xia had treated Annabelle so well and it had far crossed the line of normal brotherly love!" Dorie said.
When Su saw that she was anxious, he held her hand, "And why are you so troubled about it?"
"I was simply..." Dorie didn't know how to describe the conflict and vex in her heart.
She tilted her face and looked at Su, but she didn't notice the abnormal expression on his face.
"I didn't know how I should describe it!" Dorie said.
"No matter what, that is their private matters and it has nothing to do with you!" Su enunciated.
"I know, but..." Dorie just couldn't describe what she was feeling and she simply harrumphed, "Forget it, just treat it like I never said anything!"
She was agreeable that she shouldn't overthink. But she just couldn't control herself.
Su didn't say anything after that. He looked outside the window and there was a flash of upset in his eyes...
Dorie was troubled and she had completely overlooked Su's emotion.
Kaleb Hua saw the news that Annabelle Xia fainted and got admitted into the hospital.
The moment he saw the news, he was just nervous, worried that anything might happen to Annabelle Xia.
However, the man didn't dare to do anything and he simply waited in the car outside the hospital.
After sometime, the door to the car was opened and Hua got inside. The moment Kaleb Hua saw him, he asked, "How is she?"
"Brother Kaleb, don't worry. Miss Xia is completely fine!"
"Really?"
"I asked the doctor personally. The doctor said she was simply exhausted and too riled. It's nothing at all!" Hua said.
Kaleb Hua heard that, he finally rested his high strung heart.
The man reclined back to the cushion and relaxed himself.
"Luckily!" He mumbled.
When Hua looked at Kaleb Hua, he pondered for a while and said, "Brother Kaleb, do you want to visit her?"
Kaleb Hua stared at Hua for some time and shook his head, "There is no need for that. Since she is fine, let's just go back!" "Go back?"
Kaleb Hua nodded.
"But, we are already here..."
"Go back!" Kaleb Hua said uncompromisingly.
Hua looked at the man and he knew Kaleb Hua wanted to go in very much. The man was simply holding himself back.
Hua felt very heavy hearted for Kaleb Hua.
However, there was nothing he could say and do.
Finally, he gave the driver instruction, "Let's go!"
When the driver heard that, he started the car and drove away.
Kaleb Hua sat in the car with no emotion. However, his chiseled and wrinkled face looked troubled and in distressed.
The man that had overcome all sorts of hardships and challenges in his prime looked helpless and lonely.
Hua averted his gaze because it was too much of a heavy sight for him.
He sincerely hoped that Brother Kaleb could enjoy such heavenly blessing to spend time with his family. It was undeniable that he made a mistake several years before, but everyone would have times when they were forced by circumstances... He looked outside the window and felt very burdened.
"By the way, try everything you can to get someone to suppress the news!" Kaleb Hua said.
The man was worried about Annabelle Xia.
Although he tried so hard to appear unbothered.
Hua said, "There are a lot of public condemnation towards Miss Xia in the Internet, I can tell that someone was arranging that on purpose!"
Kaleb Hua frowned and he had a grim expression.
"No matter what, make sure you suppress the news!" Kaleb Hua said sternly. He even raised his voice and it was obvious that he was infuriated.
Hua nodded and took out his phone to make a call.
"Do everything you can to suppress the news!" After giving his instruction, he hang up.
Kaleb Hua reclined to the seat and breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, there were four forces clashing in the Internet.
The first one came from director Wu, a malicious attempt to slander Annabelle Xia and the Xia family. The next came from Ralphy Xia, Alistair Mu and now, Kaleb Hua.
Most of the people were in favor of Annabelle Xia but there was just some troubling and misleading comments. Therefore, the public was still confused. All of a sudden, nobody could tell what was happening and they were just too many versions and interpretation of the story.0000000000000000
