My Killing President novel Chapter 626

Annabelle did not deny and she nodded.

After that, she observed a slight hint of upset on Song Jing's expression, "So you asked me out today to persuade me?"

Song Jing would rarely speak to her like that. Annabelle frowned, "I know you wouldn't feel comfortable if I do this. But Song Jing, Vanessa was doing it for your best interest!"

"Then what about you?"

Right after Annabelle said that, Song Jing looked at her and asked. His gaze was deep and menacing, yet hopeful.

As if he was just waiting Annabelle to say the word and he could give everything up.

Annabelle looked at him and she knew what he wanted to hear. She said, "I am the same as Vanessa, I want your best interest. Do you want to simply throw away everything you owned in London just like that?"

"As long as you are happy…"

"I am not!!" Before he finished, Annabelle interrupted her.

There was a great distress and hurt flashing in Song Jing's eyes. Annabelle's reaction this time was even more shocking than the slap previously.

Her answer was determined and uncompromising. Cutting of all of his wishful thinking.

Annabelle stared at him as her eyebrows lowered faintly. There was a small part of her that felt burdened to act so cruelly to Song Jing, but she didn't have a choice.

Annabelle was just one woman. She couldn't separate herself into two and she couldn't give him anything.

"Song Jing, I have seen how hard you had been working in London. I do not wish to see that you lose everything to others. Not only that, your family is there. You shouldn't stay here just for me…" Annabelle said. After that much, she didn't know how she should continue.

When Song Jing heard that, he lowered his gaze and smiled bitterly.

He had no way to stop his feelings now. He didn't want it as well. And now, he was just powerless over his own feelings.

"What if I say I am willing to do that?" Song Jing asked.

Annabelle didn't know what to do. She looked at him and all she felt was heartbroken and frustration.

"Song Jing, Vanessa is a great woman. You should appreciate her!"

"I simply want to know, if there is no Vanessa, no Alistair, do I have a chance?" Song Jing asked.

Annabelle didn't expect him to ask such a hypothetical question.

She looked at Song Jing and the man looked back at her expressionlessly. However, his eyes that lit up with hope betrayed his emotions.

Annabelle said helplessly, "There are no ifs in this world!"

"What if there is?"

"Song Jing, you should know I will never answer such hypothetical questions. We must learn to face the truth!" Annabelle said.

Song Jing looked at Annabelle and laughed bitterly. He knew that Annabelle wouldn't answer his question. But he just couldn't stop himself for asking.

"I understand now!" Song Jing lowered his head and replied.

Annabelle looked at him and she didn't know if what she said were effective. However, as she looked at Song Jing, she knew that she could no longer carry on their conversation.

The meeting ended up without a closure.

Song Jing offered to send Annabelle home and she didn't reject him.

However, when they were in the car, they had nothing to talk about. They kept quiet all the way until they reached Annabelle's apartment. And Annabelle said, "I shall get up now, drive safe!"

"Okay!" Song Jing nodded.

Annabelle unfastened her seatbelt. Right when she wanted to get down the car, Song Jing grabbed her hand suddenly.

Annabelle was stunned and she looked at the man's hand instinctively. When she raised her gaze, it met with his dispirited eyes.

Song Jing continued to grab on Annabelle's hand and his gaze was telling her that he had many things to say.

"What's up?" Annabelle asked indifferently. Her voice was calm and gentle. Even as he was grabbing her hand like that, Annabelle did not show any emotion. It was as if she was talking to the most ordinary friend. There was no meaning in doing anything anymore.

All of his words were stuck in his throat.

Finally, he loosened his grip and said softly, "Be careful!"

Annabelle smiled and answered, "Yeah, you drive safe as well!" After saying that, she got down the car.

Song Jing had no choice but to drive away after that.

When Annabelle saw that he left, she went up her home.

In the night.

Alistair called and told her that he had an appointment in the night, and that he would be coming home late. Therefore, Annabelle made herself dinner and sat on the couch to watch TV.

She was simply doing that to kill time and she wasn't even paying attention to the TV. Whenever she recalled what Song Jing said to her, she couldn't help but sighed.

And so, time flew and it was almost ten o'clock.

The moment Annabelle heard the door, she turned her head back and she knew that it was Alistair.

At that moment, she seemed to be able to identify with what Alistair said in the past. That if she really loves another person, she would be able to tell just from the footsteps.

Annabelle turned her head back and Alistair walked inside.

"You're home!" Annabelle looked at him and smiled.

Alistair changed into the house slipper and then walked towards Annabelle. Right when Annabelle wanted to get up, Alistair lowered his body and gave Annabelle a long, passionate kiss.

When Annabelle felt his cold lips, she looked at him and asked, "Were you drinking?"

Alistair nodded, "A little bit!" After saying that, he walked over and sat on the couch, hugging Annabelle.

It felt so good to come home to a wife waiting for him.

Annabelle didn't say anything else and simply leaned on him quietly. Alistair recalled something all of a sudden, "I heard that you left earlier this afternoon. Where did you go?"

When Annabelle heard that, she was stunned and she looked up at him after that, "Vanessa came by to look for me today. She wanted me to persuade Song Jing to leave!"

When Alistair heard that, he frowned, "And so, you went?"

Annabelle had no intention to hide anything from him. She nodded, "Yeah!"

"Did he agree to it?"

Annabelle shook her head, "I don't know."

Alistair's lips curled up. If Song Jing were to leave just like that, then that simply proved that he wasn't that much in love with Annabelle. It was in Alistair's expectation that he disagreed.

When Annabelle saw that Alistair wasn't speaking, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. I simply think that he will be leaving sooner or later!" Alistair said affirmatively. His eyes were gleaming in confidence.

Although Annabelle didn't know why Alistair was so confident, she hoped that was the case, "No matter what, at least I did what I could!"

Alistair tilted his head and lifted her chin with his hand. He was feeling a little jealous as he asked, "Are you worried about him?"

"… Can't I?"

"Of course… NOT!" As he said that, he kissed her aggressively…

Annabelle smiled and wrapped her arms around Alistair's waist. She didn't need to say much to explain herself. Because she knew that Alistair understood her.

In the night.

The moment Song Jing came home, Vanessa welcomed him, like a longing and happy wife. "You're home!" She cheered.

Song Jing stood by their doorsteps and glanced at Vanessa. His gaze was cold and harsh and Vanessa blinked her eyes diffidently. She didn't dare to make eye contact.

He didn't say anything and walked inside directly.

"Aren't you going to eat anything?" Vanessa asked from behind.

"When do you plan to leave?" Song Jing asked coldly.

……

Vanessa's froze and stood behind him, looking at his strong and wide back. "I said it before, I will go back whenever you are willing to go back with me!"

Song Jing turned his head back and glared menacingly at her. After that, he went upstairs without saying anything.

Vanessa followed closely behind.

The man walked inside his study room and Vanessa followed inside.

"Song Jing…"

"Who let you in?" Song Jing asked.

"You… Are you angry?" Vanessa asked. Although she knew that Song Jing wasn't happy with her being here, the man had never treated her so coldly.

When Song Jing heard that, he sneered coldly. Turned his head towards her and his gaze was an icy chill, "Angry? Why should I be angry?"

"Because… Because I went to look for her!" Vanessa said. His fierce and furious gaze seemed like it would pierce through Vanessa any moment.

Song Jing sneered, "You should remember that I have forbade you to look for her. Vanessa, Vanessa… You have crossed the line! And now, you must go back!" Song Jing said threateningly. His tone was uncompromising.

Vanessa was anxious, "I did that because I was too worried that you. I promise I will not do that again next time!"

"There is no next time!" He said.

Vanessa stood there and looked at Song Jing's heartless demeanor. Her eyebrows furrowed deeply, "Is she so important in your heart?"

"Yes, and you know about that from the beginning!" Song Jing said unhesitantly.

"Then what about me? You are just as important to me like how important she was to you! Song Jing, have you ever thought about me!?" Vanessa said, "I have never done anything to hurt her, I simply asked her to persuade you to leave with me. I do not want you to lose everything you worked so hard for!"

When Song Jing heard that, he was stunned for a while.

He had never expected the meek Vanessa would say so many things in one go.

He stood there and back faced her. After a long while, his anger slowly subsided. "I have my own plans. No matter what, do not find her again!"

Vanessa's eyes welled up in tears. She looked at him and felt wronged.

"Okay, I understand."

Right when Vanessa wanted to leave, Song Jing said suddenly, "I have asked Mike to book a ticket for you. He will be sending you to the airport noon tomorrow!"

Vanessa was stunned.

She hadn't expected Song Jing to be so determined. He didn't even give her a chance to protest.

"No, I will not go!" Vanessa refused.

"You don't have a choice!"

"I said, I will not leave! Song Jing, it is fine that you don't love me, but you don't have the right to interfere with my freedom!" As she said that, she looked at Song Jing's back view and ran out the door.

When Song Jing heard the door banging after him, he stood in front of the window and closed his eyes slowly…

After a short while, he heard Ira yelling from downstairs, "Young lady, where are you going? Young lady…"

Song Jing was stunned and he walked out right away. Ira was about to get out as well.

"What happened?" Song Jing asked.

Although Ira was pissed at Song Jing, she had no other choice but to rely on his help.

"Young lady was crying when she ran out. She wasn't familiar with the place, what if anything happens?" Ira said worriedly.

Song Jing frowned. Vanessa had never done anything like that. The woman had always been the most obedient and exemplary child. It was unimaginable that she would run out in the middle of the night like that.
