"What are you talking about? Dog eyes? Ha! It seems that you are not as polite as you claim to be, Annie An." Eugenia also got up from the chair with these words. She didn't want Annie to look at her in such a condescending way. And she didn't want to raise her head to look at Annie anymore.
"Well, spoken from a certified vicious woman. You should be the expert on that! Excuse me. I have something better to do than this kind of shit." Annie didn't think that she had anything else to say to Eugenia. And with that, she turned to leave.
"I heard that you have a daughter and a son. I am wondering, do they like playing games like hide and seek with their lovely mommy?" In truth, Eugenia didn't want to continue this conversation either. But she wasn't the type who would easily let an opponent like Annie go like this. She was the type of woman who always wanted to have the last word. That was why she casually and mildly threatened Annie in an indifferent tone.
"What do you mean?" Annie immediately turned around to look at Eugenia upon hearing her words? What did she mean? Was she threatening her with her kids? Did they send someone to do a close surveillance on them? Annie had a bad feeling about this all of a sudden.
"Nothing. It was just a friendly reminder. It is never easy to get into the Ke family and take our money, as you imagine." Eugenia tilted her head and looked at Annie with a smirk on her face. She felt happy when she saw a flicker of panic in Annie's eyes. But much to her disappointment, Annie quickly shook herself back into being calm and indifferent.
"I am not afraid to tell you this. I have no interest in your family's money at all. But if you dare to do anything to my kids, then I won't hesitate to make your company go bankrupt overnight, and I won't leave you a single cent," Annie said in a cold tone, gritting her teeth to contain her anger. Eugenia could say anything and do anything she wanted to her, but she could never do anything, not even lay her eyes on the ones she cared deeply about. If she did anything to her kids or Rain, Annie would surely make sure that she and the entire KD Group would pay for it.
"Keep bluffing. You can't do anything to our company. You are nothing but a jewelry designer." Eugenia paid no mind to Annie's threat. She had nothing to be afraid of, with this small designer. She was just bluffing. She had nothing but empty words and threats.
"You can try if you don't believe me. As the daughter of the C Financial Group, it is easy for me to destroy your company if I want to." Annie was never as meek or gentle as Leena, who wanted to hide her real identity. In sharp contrast, Annie wasn't afraid of people knowing who she really was. In her eyes, if she could make things easier by revealing her identity, she would do it. She never wanted to make things complicated. She was a practical girl but at the same time, she was also cautious when it came to her loved ones.
"Wha... what did you say? C Financial Group? The one in the UK? The company that cooperated with FX International Group on a case years ago?" Eugenia couldn't even believe her own ears. She looked at Annie in utter surprise. It couldn't be real! She just wouldn't believe it. How did Annie, an ordinary designer, become the daughter of the C Financial Group? If she wasn't lying, then it meant that Rain had more power, now that the two of them had gotten married. Now this was bad news for the Ke family. If this were true, then it would also be more difficult for them to beat Rain down and kick him out of the company. No! It couldn't happen! She had to get home immediately and tell her family about this shocking news. They could never let Annie and Rain merge their powers and aim at them. They should do something to destroy their relationship or Annie would surely help Rain to put the KD Group down. Eugenia's mind was racing, trying to process this new and unacceptable information. It seemed that things got complicated all of a sudden, and unfortunately for them, they no longer had the upper hand. They needed to have an emergency meeting for they had a lot of plans to make.
