Chapter 89:
Anna?
Surprised, Annabel raised her head to look at him. It was the first time Rupert had called her Anna.
Though it was just an ordinary pet name, it sounded so different.
“Anna, haven’t we met before?” Rupert asked with a smile, moving closer to her.
The girl in front of him was so kind. For some reason, he always felt that she was like Candy, the girl in his memory.
By now, the two of them were so close that his lips could have touched her forehead if he moved forward just a bit.
When he called her Anna, it sounded as if he were calling out to his beloved.
Annabel was confused and looked at Rupert.
Why did he always ask her such strange questions?
How could they have met each other before?
Regardless, Annabel rubbed her temples and tried to recall the past. She had no memory of someone like Rupert.
The first time she had seen him was less than a month ago. They met at his house.
Annabel was sure that before then, there had been no prior meeting between them. “No.” Annabel shook her head in denial. “I lived in the countryside before. How could we have met p>
“I see.” Rupert nodded thoughtfully, a dash of disappointment flashing through his eyes.
“Well, don’t think too much. I haven’t finished bandaging your wound yet.” Annabel lowered her head and continued to bandage his hand.
A few minutes later, the bandage was finally done, and Annabel breathed a sigh of relief.
Though the wound on Rupert’s hand had bled, it was just a relatively slight cut. He needed to go to the hospital to have it disinfected and bandaged. He would be fine after taking some anti-inflammatory drugs.

But the effect of her kick on his leg seemed to be more serious.
As she packed up the medicine box, Annabel said, “I just gave you the simplest first-aid treatment. You have to go to the hospital to get properly examined. I’ll take you there p>
“Can you drive?” Rupert asked.
“Yes,” Annabel nodded.
Taking the driver’s seat, Annabel skillfully stepped on the accelerator and drove straight to the hospital.
Sitting beside her in the front passenger seat, Rupert rubbed the spot where she had kicked him. “Why did you kick me? Did you want to murder your fiancé p>
“It wasn’t deliberate,” Annabel said with a frown. “I was going to kick Nina. I didn’t know you would suddenly come between us. If it weren’t for you, I would have subdued her p>
“Really?” Rupert asked, his eyebrows raised in surprise.
He hadn’t even seen the kick coming. And it was hard and accurate, unlike what an ordinary girl could do. Was Annabel good at fighting?
