My Killing President -
Chapter 73 Jealous
Yoi frowned in indecision. And Mu tilted her chin up and looked into her eyes gently, "Be a good girl, I have important things to take care of in Yun Rui. I'll replace you again!"
"But..."
"No buts!" Though he was coaxing her, Yoi could feel his resolute tone. Therefore in order to not be distasteful, she could only nod obediently, "Okay... Remember to call me!"
"Sure!"
Yoi gave him a light peck on the lips, "Ok, then I'll go in now!"
"Ok!"
And she lumbered off in low spirit.
Mu did not stop for long. Got in his car and drove off.
Hearing the impatient screeching of tyres moving further, Yoi turned her head and stared at the direction Mu left. Her face slowly gloomed darker. Mu rejected her! She was certain that she felt an unhesitating rejection from her man!
Previously, as long as it was not in his office, whenever she initiated, he would be stirred and affectionate. But now... it was like a kick in the teeth.
He was cold, uninterested the whole time. Even when she spoke to him, his mind was wandering off.
The sudden realization haunted her like a ghost, she couldn't rid of the thought that she was slowly, surely losing him...
And the root of all these was that wretched witch!
Annabelle!
Yoi's face twisted and pinched, a black mood shrouded on it. Her fists were tightly gripped, shaking and her eyes were wet, filled with hatred. Annabelle, I won't sit back and let you ruin my life!
When Mu got back, he leisurely walked nearer to Annabelle's department and his eyes were searching around.
How come she is not in her seat?
Where'd she go?
He went back to his office. As he sat on his chair, he swivelled on and on and couldn't get rid of his restlessness. Therefore he picked up his office line. "Miss Yarvy, call Miss Annabelle in."
"Noted!"
His secretary put down the call and went in search for Annabelle.
Sometime later, Mu's door was knocked. Mu straightened his back in anticipation thinking it was Annabelle.
But when it was his secretary that entered, the sparkle in his eyes dimmed.
"Mr. Mu, Miss Xia took a time off."
"Time off?"
Why didn't he know?
"She mentioned that she wasn't feeling well, and took time off to get some rest!"
Mu frowned in perplexity. He offered her to get some rest this morning, she rejected and seemed quite lively. And now she was feeling unwell after lunch? "Alright, you may leave!" He waved her off, feeling a little irritable.
Miss Yarvy nodded and quietly left.
Mu reclined on his chair and was unable to concentrate on work. Finally, he picked up his phone and dialled her number.
"Sorry, the person you called cannot be reached. Please try......"
Her phone was off?
A deep frown knitted on his forehead. What in the world is she doing!?
All of a sudden, a supposition struck him.
Is she jealous...?
Annabelle saw how he went to lunch with another woman. And he took quite a long time too...
Maybe she got edgy and took leave because of that?!
On the other hand, Annabelle was at the doorstep of a place she was all too familiar...
It had been a while since she came back, but she never dropped by to visit Mrs. Lee, not even a call.
She felt blameworthy and this kind woman definitely deserved a proper closure. Ergo, she was here, carrying a full bag of fruits.
It was the same villa, nothing much has changed, not even the grounds keeping and decorative gardening outside.
Annabelle put her phone back in her bag. It was Mu's call just now and she decided to ignore it.0000000
