My Killing President novel Chapter 653

For the next few days, Nancy felt that Alistair was deliberately maintaining a distance with her.

She was very uncomfortable with the tension between them but she couldn't say anything.

One day.

Annabelle and Alistair went back to the Mu House to eat.

After the dinner, Annabelle went to the balcony to chill and relax. At that time, Nancy approached her, "Sister Annabelle, I rarely see you anymore!"

Annabelle was holding a glass of warm water and she was looking into a distance, "Yeah, I was quite tired lately and just lazy to move!"

Nancy nodded and looked at her, "Sister Annabelle, I heard that some time ago, Alistair was even willing to sacrifice his own life to save you!"

Annabelle didn't expect Nancy to mention that so suddenly. She tilted her head and looked at her, "Yeah, why?"

Nancy shook her head, "Nothing. I simply thought that Alistair always looks cold and cool but he has a warm heart. I remembered that when we were overseas, he did the same for me as well, almost losing his life…"

When Annabelle heard that, she was stunned. She knew that Nancy was telling her that on purpose. But it was also true that she didn't know about that.

It seemed that the two of them had known each other long ago and their relationship wasn't simple at all.

Nancy looked into the distance and smiled, "I have known him since long ago. At that time, he suffered a grave injury because of me. Now that I think of it, at that time I was completely moved. I even said an oath that I must marry a man like him!"

Annabelle held her glass of warm water and stared into space. Her eyes narrowed but she didn't say anything.

At that time, Nancy smiled and turned her head over to look at her, "That was just a thought when I was younger. Sister Annabelle, you wouldn't mind, right?"

Probably it was due to the pregnancy and Annabelle was just sensitive.

Nancy smiled and her tone felt intentional. It was as if she was telling Annabelle that Alistair saved her not because of love but it was simply due to his character.

Annabelle looked at her and said, "Of course not. That was all in the past. Everyone was young before and it is understandable that they could do something crazy. Why should I mind?"

Nancy's expression tensed up. After that, she smiled even more sweetly, "Yeah, I think so too. Therefore the moment I heard that story, I figured that Alistair must love you very much. Hence, he did that!"

Annabelle smiled and didn't answer anymore. However, Nancy just couldn't guess her thought while looking at her smile.

The two of them were silent for a while. After that, Nancy spoke suddenly, "By the way, it is my birthday tomorrow. Sister Annabelle, you must make sure to come! You can also bring your good friends along, since I don't know anyone here!"

Annabelle nodded, "I will."

"Then I should get back inside first!"

Annabelle nodded as Nancy turned around and left. The woman continued to stand in the balcony and she seemed completely unbothered by Nancy's words. However, her flickering eyes betrayed her true feelings.

On Nancy's birthday.

Since the woman didn't know many people here, she invited her only friends: the four young masters of A city. And the men brought a few closer friends.

It was a small party.

Organized in the Mu House.

The Mu House was huge and it had more than enough space for a small birthday celebration party.

Not only that, the Mu family had invested plenty of effort and money for this celebration.

Nancy purposely went to buy a birthday dress and she wanted to get all the spotlight during the party.

Annabelle decided to go as well. Although she dreaded it, it would be too obvious if she were to skip it. Meanwhile, she invited Dorie.

That was after Dorie's relentless nag to come along. She wanted to see this Nancy for herself and Annabelle just couldn't stop her. However, since Nancy herself asked Annabelle to invite her friends, Annabelle agreed to Dorie's request.

During this occasion, Annabelle avoided wearing high heels and she wore a pair of comfortable sneakers. She wore a loose one-piece dress and it was impossible to tell that she was pregnant. Luckily she was only two weeks in and her body figure was just as great.

Dorie wore a party dress. She was curious to see how this woman looked like. Previously, Dorie had only seen her from afar and she didn't get a clear look.

Once Annabelle entered the house, Jerry Kuang noticed her get-up and he joked, "Miss Xia, you are dressing up weirdly!"

Annabelle chuckled and she knew that he was referring to her shoe. She smiled and asked back, "What's the problem? Doesn't it look nice?"

"It does look nice but it just isn't your style!"

Annabelle smiled, "I accidentally twisted my ankle and I need to avoid wearing high heels for the time being!"

Jerry Kuang raised an eyebrow and didn't think much. After that, he looked at the woman next to Annabelle.

Annabelle caught on and she said, "Let me introduce, my BFF, Dorie!"

"That is Jerry Kuang, Sean and Thomas Mo. They are all Alistair's friends!" Annabelle introduced.

Dorie looked at the three legendary men. Although she had seen them in some dinner parties before this, she hadn't been standing face-to-face with them in such close distance. Not only that, she was introduced as friends.

A smile blossomed on Dorie's face, "Hello guys, just call me Dorie!"

"Dorie, what an adorable name!" The playboy Jerry Kuang started to flirt at her.

Dorie smiled. Although she did not have any association with the three men in the past, she had heard numerous gossips about them. She simply smiled back to greet them.

At that time, Sean looked at Annabelle, "Where is Alistair? Didn't he come with you?"

"I figure he would come straight from the company!"

Sean nodded and didn't think much.

At that time, Dorie nudged Annabelle. She looked at them and said, "Excuse me for a moment!"

The three men nodded and Annabelle and Dorie walked away.

Dorie was touring around. It was her first time visiting Alistair's house and she was completely awestruck.

"Does president Mu have a lot of family members? Isn't this house just too big?!"

When Annabelle heard her, she giggled, "Then do you want to move here?"

"Not at all, I'm afraid I might get lost!"

Annabelle burst into a giggle.

Dorie dragged Annabelle away to the dining table. When she saw those foods, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "It is just a simple birthday party. Is there a need to be so extravagant?!" Her tone reflected her irritation.

At that time, Dorie looked at Annabelle and said, "By the way, Annabelle, your birthday is coming soon too, right?"

"It's still early!"

"Not at all, just in one month!" Dorie pondered for a while and said, "Let us wait and see what Alistair would do. If it is just like this for even inferior to this, then you can kick him out!"

Annabelle simply smiled undisturbedly, she didn't have any demands for her birthday. As of the moment, her major concern was to maintain a good mood.

When Dorie looked at the food, she harrumphed, "Hmph, I shall see what this woman is all about, and then finish all this food!" As she said that, her eyes were twinkling in stars as she stared at the food.

Annabelle smiled, "All right, you can start eating first. I'll go sit over there!"

Dorie nodded hurriedly, "Okay!"

Dorie was starving. She came right after finishing work and she didn't manage to eat anything at all. Now that she saw so many good foods, she was trying to avenge Annabelle by finishing them off.

Annabelle was sitting by the corner. There was quite a small crowd gathering that but they were mostly socializing with the three young masters.

The crowd was lingering near to their couch.

At that moment, Nancy came down from upstairs. The woman had dressed herself up sensationally. She permed her long hair and wore a long dress. She looked youthful and sexy at the same time.

When she came down from upstairs, she walked towards the three men.

"Brother Jerry, brother Sean, brother Thomas, you guys are early!"

"That's of course! It's your birthday!" Jerry Kuang said. He was the most talkative person amongst the three.

Nancy smiled and looked at them, "Am I pretty today?"

"Absolutely gorgeous! You are our star for the night!"

"How about my birthday presents?"

"You want to see us or the birthday presents?"

"Both!"

"We will give it to you later!"

"That's more like it!" Nancy laughed.

When they were chatting about, there was a furore at the door and there could only be one possibility: Alistair came home.

The man's appearance could always cause a furore.

Alistair was wearing an authentic Armani suit and he had a dominating posture. Especially his face, it was so gorgeous that the ladies just couldn't help but screamed.

His appearance was like sunshine to Nancy and she cheered, "Alistair, you are here!"

Alistair looked at Nancy and walked towards her, "Happy birthday!" After saying that, he hugged her.

Nancy hugged him back, "Thank you!"

After that, she looked at him from head to toe, "Alistair, did the few of you agreed beforehand not to bring me any presents!?"

Alistair chuckled and looked around. After that, he noticed Annabelle sitting in a corner. It was obvious that she had seen the earlier scene.

The moment he saw Annabelle, his lips curled up, "Don't worry, you will definitely get it later!"
