My Killing President novel Chapter 33

I am resigning, why do I have to come on time!?

She rolled her eyes at her own denseness, and marched confidently into the office.

As soon as she entered DoD, she was caught in a surprise.

*POP POP*

And all she could see was fluttering confetti.

A crowd gathered to cheer and applaud festive style.

Annabelle dazed momentarily and then asked awkwardly, “Anything happening here?”

Covi came up and held her hand, “Annabelle, we heard that you have secured the contract with Yuan Shin Group!” She was so gleeful and Annabelle can feel her genuine joy for her success. Annabelle looked around and she saw that everyone in DoD were there to give her this surprise celebration.

“Many have tried but failed. And Annabelle, you who just came managed to slay the dragon, we are so proud of you!” Covi cheered.

Annabelle felt warm-hearted. She had equipped and braced herself for office politics, toxic working environments and worse… and now she found her current workplace really pleasant. More than what she hoped for.

Regrettably, she just couldn’t stay…

Annabelle bowed her head gently and returned everyone’s goodwill with a bright smile.

“I was just lucky!” She crooned, unsure whether her colleagues caught wind of what happened or not.

Frankly speaking, it was truly lucky that she got the contract. And Mu’s appearance after that was climacteric. It sent shivers down her spine just imagining what can happen otherwise.

“Congratulations Annabelle!” Covi wrapped her arms enthusiastically around her shoulder.

“Congratulations…? For what?” Annabelle was thrown in confusion again.

Her colleagues cheered it off, but they definitely heartfelt her genuine gratitude. Everyone loves a humble and generous person. And Annabelle excused herself to the president’s office.

In Mu’s office.

The door opened and Annabelle stepped through. And as per usual, Mu was sitting on his Bond-villain swivel chair, his coat on it. He was wearing a black tailored shirt that fitted tightly like a glove.

And he looked like a man who lifted heavy objects and put them down, and then done it again a few million times.

“Have a seat.”

Annabelle averted her gaze and hesitantly sat in front of him.

Mu then withdrew a collection of documents and passed them to her.

“Take a look!”
