Annabelle was diffident because Covi was just too sharp and witty. When she was thinking hard on how to avert the topic, someone walked towards them, “Annabelle, this is your drawing. Please double check it and then pass to president Mu!”
Annabelle took a look at the document and she nodded in acknowledgment, “Okay!” After that, she took it over and flipped it open.
Covi was still sinking in her own thoughts. That time, Annabelle stood up and said, “Let’s get back to work first. I’ll need to go to president Mu’s office.” After saying that, Annabelle stood up and walked away.
Covi stared at Annabelle’s hurried steps but she still couldn’t remember anything.
Where had she seen it?
When Annabelle was on her way to Alistair’s office, she was hesitant.
She recalled that they ended up in a conflict this morning and it would be awkward to meet now.
She wasn’t considering that much earlier and she simply walked to his office. Now that she thought about it, it would definitely be awkward.
The woman had always been able to separate work and personal matters. However, she was just jumbled up when she met Alistair.
She took a deep breath and reminded herself: This is for work matters! Do not mix personal life with work!
As she thought about that, she relaxed herself and walked courageously to Alistair’s office. The woman knocked on his door.
However, there was no response after a long time.
Annabelle knocked again and it was the same.
Annabelle frowned.
Did anything happen?
When she thought about that, she pushed the door open.
But as she looked around the room, it was empty.
Annabelle frowned and asked, “Why would you ask that?”
“I heard boss making a call this morning and I recalled him mentioning your name and Cole Ho. After that he ran out!”
The moment Annabelle heard that, she was completely shocked, “What else did you hear?”
“I think it’s something about getting news on Cole Ho. After boss heard that, he ran out!”
“Where did he go? Did he go alone?” Annabelle asked nervously.
Because Cole Ho had been trying to kill her. Not only that, the man was deranged and seemed to have an excessive fervid to do that. It was dangerous for Alistair to face him alone.
When Jack heard Annabelle, he nodded, “He went out alone and I didn’t know where he was going!”
When Annabelle heard that, she was even more high strung. She took up her phone and called Alistair. However, the only thing she heard was: the number you called, is unavailable…
