CEO's Revengeful Queen novel Chapter 10

 "Would this stony, abnormal man do such a thing? Maybe she had overlooked a lot of things in her previous life."

Annetta's clear eyes flashed with confusion as she thought of these things.

Bettina had been standing outside the door. She never expected Young Master Ethan not only to let Annetta off so easily but also to treat that woman so tenderly. Bettina was furious and wished she could chop off Annetta's legs on the spot.

However, no matter how unwilling and angry she was, there was nothing she could do. She could only leave angrily after a hateful glare at Annetta. 

Even Howard was surprised. Other people did not know how abnormal, possessive and territorial Young Master Ethan was, but after years of service to him, he was well aware. He could not understand how Ethan had let this woman off so easily. 

And had even specifically instructed him to bring Annetta to her grandfather's birthday banquet?

Howard felt like he was dreaming. No, he didn't even dare to think of such things!

Although it was strange, Howard still walked to Annetta and said, "Miss White, let's go!"

"Where are we going?"

"Miss White, have you forgotten? Today is your grandfather's 60th birthday."

Annetta's heart skipped a beat when she heard that, and her eyes were red-rimmed with tears once again. Grandfather was still alive!

She remembered that in her previous life; she had been imprisoned by Ethan because she met with Caleb. The White family had thought she was dead. Hunk White, her cruel and unscrupulous father, had used the news of her death to upset her grandfather, who loved her dearly. 

Her father, her stepmother Cicely, her stepsister Carla, and Caleb Taylor had also spread rumours about her. They claimed she had been having affairs with many rich businessmen. Everyone called her a vixen and a seducer of men, just like her mother.

Her grandfather had a heart attack and died on the spot due to anger.

Annetta had been released a month later and heard the news of her grandfather's passing. By that time, her father and her aunt had seized the opportunity to embezzle all of her grandfather's family property.
