Chapter 221:
“Good morning,” Rupert said when he spotted Annabel.
They had breakfast, then got in Rupert’s car. Annabel was surprised when she noticed that he wasn’t driving toward Benton Group.
“Aren’t we going to the company?” Annabel asked, looking out the window and trying to guess his intended destination.
“Well then, where are we going?” Annabel was curious. The press conference was scheduled for the afternoon. Where was Rupert taking her now?
Rupert gave her a side glance and said, “You’ll know when we get there p>
Ten minutes later, Rupert parked his car in front of a salon. “Here we are p>
Annabel got out and considered the salon’s golden sign. It read: ANA Studio.
ANA Studio was a high-end salon that catered to the elite who wanted a one-stop shop to completely beautify themselves. Here, a woman could have her clothing chosen and her hair and makeup done by the best stylists in the business.
The moment Rupert was out of his car, the manager came to greet him. “Mr. Benton, this way, please p>
“Let’s go.” Rupert looked at Annabel with a smile.
“Miss Hewitt, this way, please. We are ready,” the manager said with a smile.
Now Annabel understood why Rupert had brought her here. He had made an appointment for her in preparation for the press conference. Perhaps he was more concerned about this afternoon than he was letting on.
Annabel nodded and followed the manager into the dressing room.
When Annabel came out again, everyone was amazed.
Rupert couldn’t stop staring at her.
The red dress that Annabel wore had a vest-style top that greatly flattered her chest. Just enough of her porcelain skin was visible to be alluring yet elegant. Her long hair was draped over her shoulders in a particularly attractive fashion.
She was dazzling.

“Do you like it?” Annabel asked Rupert when she noticed him staring at her.
“You’re so beautiful,” he answered, coming back to his senses.
The press conference began at two o’clock.
It was being held in a luxurious conference room on the eighteenth floor of the Benton Group building.
Annabel reviewed the preparations once more. Everything was ready.
She looked at her watch and saw that it was ten minutes to two.
In ten minutes, the press conference would start.
Besides the press, there would be many attendees from influential families. The guest list included Margo, Rory, and many VIPs in the jewelry business. Of course, as CEO of Benton Group, Rupert would also be there.
It was obvious that Benton Group attached great importance to this press conference.
Meanwhile, the journalists scrambled for the best seats in the room. They were all excited for the press conference to begin, and all of them feared missing out on breaking news.
The press conference began on time, and at exactly two o’clock, Annabel appeared on stage.
