My Killing President novel Chapter 673

Outside.

Alistair answered the call, "Hello!"

"Alistair, where are you?" The person that called was none other than Nancy.

"With sister Annabelle and her family?" Nancy asked nonchalantly.

Alistair frowned and looked around, "How did you know?"

"I'm afraid everyone in the world knows that you are getting married. How can I not know?"

Alistair, "…"

"Don't worry, I am simply making this call to give you my blessings. I hope you can be happy!"

"Nancy…"

*Beep*

When Alistair wanted to say something, the call was ended.

Alistair looked at his phone for a while and went back after that.

Everything went well at first. But after the call from Nancy, Alistair felt a little down casted.

At that time, Annabelle looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Alistair smiled and put his phone back in his pocket, "Nothing!"

Annabelle didn't ask much and continued to eat.

After the dinner was done, the two families went home.

Annabelle went back together with Alistair while Ralphy drove Teneria, Waynie and Renee An.

The Mu family had their driver picking them up.

After they went home and took a shower, the young couple went to the balcony to enjoy the night breeze. Annabelle looked at Alistair and asked, "What's wrong? After you answered the call, you became a little gloomy. Was it from Nancy?"

Alistair did not deny and nodded, "Yeah!"

"How is she?"

"She simply said a few sentences and hung up before I could say anything!"

"Do you want to go check on her?" Annabelle asked.

"There's no need. It's pretty late now and let's leave it to tomorrow!" Alistair said.

Annabelle did not say further. She nodded and looked into the distance. The woman was in deep thought.

At that time, Alistair moved closer and hugged her from behind, "What are you thinking?"

"Alistair, I have something important to tell you!" Annabelle said suddenly.

Alistair tilted his head and looked at her side. After a short pause, he asked, "What is that?"

"I…" Annabelle hesitated for a while, "Actually, I am not the real daughter of the Xia family!" Annabelle said.

Alistair had known about this long ago. But he was surprised that Annabelle was telling him that.

"Really?" He raised an eyebrow and asked.

When Annabelle saw that he wasn't surprised at all, she frowned and asked in puzzlement, "Your reaction is suspicious!"

Alistair looked at her and said, "Actually I have known about this long ago…"

He knew?

Annabelle looked at him with surprise, "How did you know?!"

"Your father told me!"

Annabelle was stunned.

"Ever since we went to tell them about our relationship, your father told me that and he asked me to take care of you, and be forbearing towards you!" Alistair said.

Annabelle stood there and she was shocked. She didn't imagine that Alistair knew about that.

The woman was just surprised and couldn't react at all.

"Don't worry, it isn't important whether you are the daughter of the Xia family or not. Most importantly, you are my Annabelle. The one and only Annabelle!" Alistair said.

When Annabelle heard that, her lips curled up and she leaned back in Alistair's hug.

"Actually, I still don't know who my parents are!" Annabelle said.

"Have you thought about searching for them?" Alistair asked.

Annabelle shook her head, "I wouldn't force myself to do that. If it is God's will, we will definitely meet. Moreover, my parents treated me like their own daughter. Why should I stubbornly go through such trouble to look for my real parents?"

"Do you want me to help you with that?" Alistair asked.

Annabelle shook her head, "There's no need. I like my life now and let's just follow the flow!"

When Alistair heard Annabelle saying that, he nodded.

Annabelle wasn't a young girl anymore. Although she wasn't old in age, she had a mature mindset.

She wouldn't be disturbed and go to a quest to look for her birth parents. Not only that, she appreciated what she had. Her grateful personality made Alistair appreciated her even more.

After they stood in the balcony for a long time, Alistair said, "It's pretty late now and we should rest earlier. Now that the wedding date is decided, you might be very busy from now onwards. In another word, rest as much as you can!"

When Annabelle heard that, she nodded, "Okay!"

"By the way, Annabelle, I have something to ask you!"

"What is it?" Annabelle asked.

"After getting married, do you want to stay in this apartment in the city or go back to the Mu House?" Alistair asked.

Annabelle looked at him and asked, "How about you?"

"I will follow wherever you go!" Alistair said.

When Annabelle heard that, she smiled, "Then let's move to the Mu House. It wasn't convenient for me to stay alone now that I am pregnant. If I am over there, I still have grandma and mom and I wouldn't be bored!"

Alistair was satisfied to hear that answer.

That was his thought as well. The moment he asked that question, Annabelle could understand his motivation.

"All right, then it's decided!"

"Mr. Mu, you wanted this as well, right?" Annabelle asked smilingly.

"I wanted you to be taken care of. It is the best choice to move in with my family!"

Annabelle smiled as they went up the bed. Annabelle leaned on Alistair and found herself a comfortable position.

Alistair tilted his head and looked at her, "It's late now, let's hurry and sleep!"

"Okay!"

"Good night!"

"Good night!"

After turning off the bedside lamps, the room went into silence.

It wasn't too late at that time.

On the other side, the Xia house.

When the family went home, Ralphy went to his study room and Renee An went back to the bedroom.

Teneria and Waynie went back to the room.

After showering, the parents were chatting.

Waynie couldn't help but sighed.

Teneria looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I am feeling a little sad!"

"Why?"

"People said that you will be sad once-in-a-lifetime when you marry your daughter away. But I have to experience it twice. Marrying my daughter to the same man!" But after Waynie said that, it felt comical.

Teneria looked at her and smiled, "All right now, there is no need to be sad. It's not like we wouldn't be able to see her anymore. I can see that the Mu family treats her well. We should be restful!"

Waynie nodded in agreement, "You are right. We can clearly see that the grandmother loves Annabelle!"

"Although Annabelle isn't our real daughter, we had treated her like our own since she was little. Now that I see she is happy, I can rest my heart!"

"I know you love her very much. Annabelle is a good girl and she definitely appreciates you!" Teneria comforted her.

When Waynie heard that, she had a sudden thought, "Do you think if Annabelle had known it long ago?"

When Teneria heard that, he was stunned. He raised his head and the husband and wife looked at each other in the eye. After sometime, Teneria spoke, "I don't think so!"

"Do you still remember the time when they were teenagers, she was supposed to study business management with Ralphy. Moreover, her results came back better than Ralphy. It is obvious that she was doing a good job in her studies. However, all of the sudden she made the decision to quit…"

"Are you saying…"

Waynie nodded.

After Teneria gave it some thought, he said, "Now that I think of it carefully, it was abrupt indeed!"

"I remember, after that, she even stopped acting coquettish towards me. She had never asked me for anything too!" The more she said it, the more she thought that it was probable.

Teneria looked at her and said, "Let's not overthink. It doesn't matter if she knows or she doesn't, she is still our daughter. So many years had passed, did it change anything?"

"I know!" She we and said, "I am simply worried that after Annabelle finds out the truth, she would blame us!"

"If what you said is true, that she had known long ago, did you ever feel that she was blaming us?"

Waynie shook her head.

"See? You don't need to overthink. It's getting late now and let's sleep earlier!"

"Okay!" Waynie nodded and applied her skin lotion. Right after she lied down, she recalled something suddenly, "By the way, Teneria, do you have any plans for Annabelle's wedding?"

Teneria was lying on the bed. When he heard the question, he pondered about it seriously and asked, "What do you have in mind?"

"I heard that Annabelle has around twenty percent of the Mu family's shares. She is now the largest shareholder for the Mu groups of companies, even more than Alistair!" Waynie said.

Teneria was stunned. He had heard about that but he never asked Annabelle anything.

"It seems that the Xia family treats Annabelle very well!"

Waynie nodded, "Although Annabelle isn't our real daughter, we shouldn't be reserved with her wedding gifts!"

"Why not we give Annabelle twenty percent of the Xia Group's shares? What do you think?" Teneria asked.

Waynie hesitated for a while and nodded, "That is a good idea!"

"Aren't you worried that if she finds out the truth she would leave with the twenty percent?!" Teneria asked with a smile.

Waynie chuckled, "It's just like you said, Annabelle is a good child. Moreover, the Mu family is wealthy enough. She simply needed to lift a finger to break free from us!"

"It is just twenty percent, how can money hold a candle against our twenty years of family relationship? I am confident with Annabelle's character and I am not worried at all!"

When Teneria heard Waynie, he smiled and hugged her, "Waynie, you are really the best woman in this world!"

"Why so?"

"Not just any woman could do what you did!"

"I simply think that Annabelle is a blessing from above!" Waynie said.
