My Killing President novel Chapter 34

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

“Take a look!”

Annabelle turned to a serious demeanour and picked up the documents.

The first page was a registration form.

“This is…?” She asked in uncertainty.

“Registration form for the Shin Rui Design Competiton (SRD). Fill it and pass it back to me ASAP.” Mu explained patiently.

So what Covi mentioned was true!

Whoever signed off the Yuan Shi Contract will win a spot to join the SRD!

Annabelle was put on the fence. She would really really love to utilize such a golden opportunity, just the experience from participation alone is priceless!

However…

Mu observed that Annabelle suddenly went absent minded. Her knitted eyebrows and faint sigh suggested that she was placed in a tight spot.

“Is there any problem?” Mu asked.

“Mr. Mu, thank you for dropping Dorie’s charges. But I have decided to leave my position here,” Annabelle spoke slowly, and she realized that she wasn’t as enthusiastic when she brought up this topic this time.

“Reason!?” Mu’s pitch raised slightly.

“No reason.”

Of course there couldn’t be one. It’s unthinkable to tell you that I feel uncomfortable being together with you because we were married.

“Is it because of the previous misunderstandings?” Mu said, his fingers tapped rhythmically on the desk.

Annabelle shook her head quickly.

Mu’s gut feeling told him that something was off. Annabelle’s motivation to leave was very queer and unjustifiable. And now it just piqued his interests even more!

He regained his self-possession and spoke unhurriedly, “I hope you consider this carefully. It’s not easy to secure a position in Yun Rui. What more, such an invaluable opportunity for SRD!”

Mentioning SRD brought a frown to Annabelle’s forehead. She seemed to struggle even more now.
