My Killing President novel Chapter 618

"President Mu? Miss Xia…" Esther Ji greeted them. After that, she explained, "I am here to visit grandma Mu and apologize to her!"

The grandmother sat on the couch and smiled gently, "Miss Ji, you have no reason to apologize. Everyone has their own hardships and choices. We don’t blame you. As for these gifts, please bring it back!"

"No, how can I do that? These are my sincerity towards you!" Esther Ji said anxiously, as if she was very worried that the grandmother wouldn’t accept it.

"Miss Ji, you hadn’t done me any wrong, therefore, you don’t have to visit me with gifts!" The grandmother said.

"But…" Esther Ji frowned. She looked at the family and didn’t know what to do.

At that time, Annabelle walked forward and said, "Grandma, since this is her goodwill, let’s just accept it!"

Esther Ji nodded hurriedly.

At that time, Annabelle turned her head over and looked at Esther Ji, "Miss Ji, thank you for the kind gifts. However, don’t do it again. You haven’t done anything wrong and you simply lacked the courage. Hence, you don’t have to apologize. We will accept it this time but please don’t do it again!" Annabelle said smilingly.

Although she was smiling, she was exuding a strong presence. Showing her authority as the female owner of the Mu family.

However, what Annabelle said made sense and Esther Ji couldn’t argue with her. Finally, she nodded, "I understand."

Annabelle smiled, "Do you want to stay for dinner?"

"Oh, there’s no need. Now I just remembered that I have something going on, I shall leave first!" Esther Ji said awkwardly.

Annabelle smiled, "All right, then we shouldn’t keep you up for long, let me see you off!"

Esther Ji nodded and the two women walked outside.

When Alistair looked at their back view, his lips curled up. The man didn’t follow them but he walked towards the grandmother. They looked at each other and raised their eyebrows.

They were both satisfied with Annabelle’s action.

At the doorstep, Annabelle looked at Esther Ji and said, "Miss Ji, safe trip!"

Esther Ji stood by the doorstep and looked at Annabelle. After some contemplation, she said, "Miss Xia, do you have any misunderstanding towards me?"

"What kind of misunderstanding?" Annabelle looked at her and asked back.

When Esther Ji looked at Annabelle’s eyes, all of a sudden, she didn’t know what to say.

Annabelle was just like what the rumor said, she appeared to be gentle and harmless. However, she wasn’t an easy person.

"I am simply here to express my apology towards the grandmother!"

Annabelle nodded, "Yeah, then what do you think I misunderstood about?"

Esther Ji, "……"

She looked at Annabelle and didn’t know how to continue the conversation.

"Miss Ji, now that you joined Yun Rui, if you want to be serious with work, you should put your attentiveness in work. You shouldn’t pay too much attention to ‘other’ things!" Annabelle looked at her and enunciated.

That reply rendered Esther Ji speechless.

She looked at Annabelle and pondered for a long while. Finally, she said, "I will make sure to work hard in work, and that doesn’t mean I will neglect other things too!" After saying that, Esther Ji didn’t say anything anymore and walked away.

Annabelle stood there and looked at Esther Ji’s back view. Her lips curled up and she went back.

After going back to the living room, she saw the grandmother and Alistair sitting in the couch and laughing at her.

"Is anything the matter?" Annabelle blinked her eyes and asked.

The grandmother chuckled, "Annabelle, you resemble the Mu family more and more!"

At that time, Annabelle said, "Grandma, we can all tell that she has a different agenda…" After saying that, she looked over at Alistair.

At that time, Alistair stood up and walked towards Annabelle, "So now you finally realized how popular I am!"

Annabelle pretended to give it a serious thought and nodded, "Yeah, that what do you plan to do next?"

"Miss Xia, that question should be directed to you! You should secure me as soon as possible!" Alistair hugged her and reminded her.

Annabelle smiled and broke free from his hug, "I prefer to give each other freedom and space!" After saying that, she walked towards the grandmother and sat by her side. She wrapped her arms around grandma Mu and said, "Grandma, what do you think?"

"Of course, and aside from Annabelle, I will not accept any other granddaughter in law for our Mu family!"

Alistair, "……"

"Grandma, if you do that, you grandson will be treated unfairly!"

"Then go and handle your affairs properly! I do not want them to ‘visit’ again in the future!" The grandmother said.

Annabelle wrapped her arms around the grandmother and laughed heartily.

Esther Ji did not affect their mood. The woman couldn’t hold a candle against Annabelle in her opinion.

They wouldn’t have any conflict or quarrel just because of one Esther Ji. Not only that, her episode reminded Alistair that he should protect Annabelle…

In the company.

Esther Ji would frequent Alistair’s office for all sorts of reasons. Although it was for work related matters, the way she carried herself was not too agreeable within the company.

Even Covi couldn’t stand it anymore and she complained to Annabelle during lunch time, "This Esther Ji is too ‘eager’, she would seize her every chance to get inside president Mu’s office!"

Annabelle smiled and continued to eat. She didn’t say anything.

"Why are you still laughing? How can you still eat? I would have long taken action if I were you. Aren’t you afraid that she will seduce your president Mu?!" Covi couldn’t help but expressed her vex.

When Annabelle heard her, she chuckled, "Then what do you think I should do? Go ahead and give her a slap? Warning her not to be so ‘eager’? I believe there are a lot of eyes waiting for me to erupt. Not only that, she was merely working, what do you think I should say?"

"Aren’t you afraid that president Mu might be seduced? If I were a man, I would like you too and not her. However, a man wouldn’t just look at the appearance, sometimes, the reason was simply because she was another easy target…" Covi explained sensibly.

Annabelle simply smiled, "If that’s the case, then I should feel grateful!"

"What?"

"I could know Alistair’s real character and stop wasting my youth on him!"

Covi, "Unbelievable… You are still in the mood for jokes!"

Annabelle chuckled, "I can’t stop her from doing that. However, now I am just interested to see what will happen!" Annabelle said. The woman decided to be an observer this time.

Covi looked at Annabelle and frowned. If only she was half as confident as Annabelle…

After lunch, Annabelle went upstairs. At that time, there were still some time before work resumed.

Right when Annabelle got to the doorstep, she heard some sound from inside.

She frowned and walked inside.

"President Mu, I brought this for you when I came up!"

Alistair took a look and said, "Thank you, but I don’t drink this kind of coffee!"

"Ah? That’s okay, I will just get rid of it…"

"Oh dear me, sorry about that, president Mu. I didn’t do it on purpose…"

When Annabelle heard the sound from inside, she frowned and opened the door.

At that time, she saw Esther Ji wiping Alistair with tissues.

When the door was opened so suddenly, the two of them looked towards the door together. They were surprised to see Annabelle.

"Annabelle, why are you here?" Alistair said. He took out another piece of tissue and looked at Esther Ji, "I can do it myself!"

He wasn’t nervous to prove anything, but simply doing what he should in the most natural manner.

Esther Ji looked at Annabelle and said, "Miss Xia…" After that, she recalled something all of a sudden and she said, "I accidentally spilled the coffee, and then…"

At that time, Annabelle walked inside and looked at them. Her lips curled up, "Miss Ji, you don’t have to explain so nervously. I did not misunderstand anything. But if you were to explain like that, you would look suspicious!"

"I…" Esther Ji looked at Annabelle. She realized that although Annabelle appeared harmless, she couldn’t argue with anything she says.

"I shall excuse myself first!" Esther Ji didn’t say anything and turned around to leave.

Even as she disappeared outside the door, Annabelle did not move a muscle. She simply stared at Alistair, emotionlessly. No anger nor sadness. She simply looked at him like that.

At that time, Alistair walked over and looked at Annabelle, "Darling, do I need to explain myself?"

"What do you think?"

"Your eyes tell me that you believe me!" Alistair walked towards Annabelle. And Annabelle pushed him away with one finger, "President. Mu, you should change first!"

"Help me to change!"

Annabelle smiled, "Excuse me but I am very busy. I shall leave you to that, bye bye!" After saying that, Annabelle wanted to leave.

At that time, Alistair stretched out his hand suddenly and pulled Annabelle back. He looked at her as his lips curled up, "Miss Xia, please be more serious about getting jealous!"

"Like how?"
