My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 559

Chapter 559

Annabelle said, “Mr. Hughes, I’m truly sorry. I tried to explain things to Mrs. Hughes and clarify that I have no relationship with you. I didn’t expect her to misunderstand. It’s my fault.” 

She tried to justify herself as the call connected 

Thankfully, she was alone in the car. 

Her hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably. 

Jeremy stood by the floor–to–ceiling–windows of the Hughes Group’s building. He gazed outside with no hint of emotion in his eyes; only a chilling coldness emanated from him. 

“Annabelle, you’re asking for trouble.” 

“Mr. Hughes! I genuinely tried to help. I was just passing by and saw a movie being filmed. I saw Mrs. Hughes and thought I should explain,” Annabelle stammered. She frantically tried to explain herself. 

Jeremy exhaled a puff of smoke. Then, he said, “Leave Jipsburg immediately.” 

“I…” 

“Did you think I haven’t investigated you? If you continue to manipulate things, your stepfather will be here tomorrow to deal with you.” Jeremy’s voice was cold and final. 

The seemingly ordinary words caused Annabelle’s face to go pale with shock. 

“You… You investigated me?” Annabelle stammered. She realized he already knew about her past.

The mention of Mason meant he was aware of her cosmetic surgery and the abuse she had suffered. 

“You only have tonight.” Jeremy’s tone sounded very cold. 

Annabelle was on the brink of collapse. “I’ve been with you for so long. Isn’t it too heartless for you to be this cruel? If you’ve investigated my past, you should know I’m the victim here. I’ve been mistreated. 

“That doesn’t change my feelings for you, Mr. Hughes. Why are you so indifferent and biased? You’re indifferent to me, yet you greatly favor Mrs. Hughes. She’s already planning to divorce you. Why do you still favor her so much? I don’t understand.” 

After all her efforts, it felt like a complete waste. She couldn’t accept it. 

What she struggled to achieve, Natalie seemed to obtain effortlessly. 

Annabelle had done everything she could to please him in bed. Yet, she was only met with a cold rejection as soon as he got out of bed.

She couldn’t understand or accept it and was unwilling to give up. 

“You’re not worthy compared to Natalie,” Jeremy said coldly before hanging up the phone. 

He then turned to Tristan and instructed, “Keep an eye on Annabelle. Make sure she leaves Jipsburg before tomorrow morning. Go to her home now and collect anything related to scents and that painting hanging on the wall.” 

After the past few days of reflection, the memory of that peculiar scent in the hotel kept invading his mind. 

The scent had briefly made him lose control. When he first became involved with Annabelle, her allure drew him in. However, Jeremy had suspected that Annabelle might have used some kind of drug or substance–to–manipulate his emotions. 

Once Tristan left, Jeremy returned to his desk and opened a drawer filled with several keys. There were several keys in the drawer. Jeremy picked out one. This key could unlock the apartment where Natalie currently lived. 

It was also a spare key she had previously left with him. 

Since Natalie was avoiding him, he took the initiative to see her. Their issues needed resolution, and he was determined that she could only be his wife. 

Skylar went to the traditional dress shop according to the address Paul had sent her. 

Inside, there was only one shop assistant, Ralph Marrow, and a grandfatherly figure in his 60s. 

“Are you the young lady Mr. Ziegler mentioned?” the elderly man, Terence Jimenez, asked with a warm smile.
