Chapter 4
Chapter 4:
Her beautiful eyes were just like that girl’s.
Annabel squinted at him with a smile.
“What? Why are you staring at me like that? Are you obsessed with me p>
Rupert came to his senses. His face darkened again. He ordered coldly, “Get out! And don’t come into this room ever again p>
Annabel sucked her teeth, then left with her belongings without hesitation.
This was their first meeting, but they already didn’t like each other.
Cathy, who was still at the door, was surprised to see Annabel come out.
Annabel said with an ambiguous smile, “Good morning! As you wish, your cousin held me in his arms and slept for the whole night. We got along pretty well. You must be happy about that p>
“Nonsense!” Cathy’s face was livid. She didn’t believe that at all.
In her opinion, there was no way Rupert would like Annabel, let alone hold her in his arms for hours.
But the fact that they had slept together for the whole night was plain to see.
Annabel walked away with a fake smile.
Cathy lost it. “You bumpkin! Stop right there. I’m not done talking. Let me tell you, Rupert won’t marry you p>
Just then, Rupert walked out of the room.
“Ermm… Rupert…” Cathy stuttered, moving back in fear.
Rupert’s face darkened. It was obvious that he was angry, so Cathy didn’t dare say anything more.
Annabel asked a maid to take her to her room. She unpacked her things and then went downstairs for breakfast.
Erica, Cathy, and Rupert were already seated at the dining table.
Erica began to criticize her as soon as Annabel sat down. “Weren’t you taught proper etiquette? Not only did you wake up so late, but you also didn’t bother preparing breakfast. Do you think you’re already the hostess here p>
Let your imagination soar with gαℓησν𝒆𝓁s．çο𝗺
Taking a glance at Erica, Annabel said flatly, “I’m not a servant either p>
She would never make breakfast for this family.
Although Rupert didn’t say anything as the two argued, there was no denying that he didn’t like Annabel either.
The atmosphere in the dining room was tense. They ate in silence for most of the time. After breakfast, Erica held out a bank card to Annabel.
“This card is loaded with about five thousand dollars. Buy yourself some decent clothes before going to the company. Remember to behave well. You mustn’t cause any trouble for Rupert p>
To develop the relationship between the two, Bruce had proposed that Annabel work in the company as Rupert’s secretary. Leonard Hewitt, Annabel’s grandfather, agreed to the arrangement. She didn’t refuse. After all, it was only temporary.
Her new employment was no big deal for her, but the bank card was. It was obvious that Erica looked down on her.
“Thanks, but no thanks,” Annabel said in a sarcastic manner.
There was nothing wrong with her clothes, as far as she was concerned. They were specially made for her. That was why the Bentons thought they were not designer clothes.
Without waiting for Erica or anyone else to retort, she went upstairs to get ready for work.
