My Killing President novel Chapter 674

Annabelle simply smiled, "That's because I don't have to worry about anything!"

When Dorie saw her smile, she squinted her eyes, "Annabelle, are you showing off?"

"What do you think?"

"I think you are!"

"Then it is…" As she said that, Annabelle broke into a giggle. Dorie simply gave her an eye roll in return.

After the two friends were done, Dorie shooed Annabelle to the couch and she went to do the dishes.

"Sigh, I am just here to do hard labor!"

"Don't worry, when you get pregnant, I will go and help out as well!" Annabelle laughed.

"Okay, I shall remember that. If you aren't coming, I will just stay in your house and live off you!"

"You are most welcome!"

After doing the dishes, Dorie came out from the kitchen and sat on the couch. She looked at Annabelle's stomach and asked, "How was it? Are you feeling better lately?"

Annabelle nodded, "Yeah, much better. I will go to do a checkup with Alistair tomorrow!"

Dorie pondered for a while, "With him?"

Annabelle nodded.

"You should have asked me…"

Annabelle, "…"

"Just let me accompany you. Don't you think it is embarrassing to bring a man to your maternity inspection? By the way, we can even invite Covi and let's go together!"

"Covi?"

Dorie nodded.

"Don't you have to be in the shop today?"

"Su is there, I don't have to worry!"

When Annabelle looked at Dorie's response, she didn't know what to say, "I'll go get changed. You give her a call!"

"Okay!"

Therefore, about twenty minutes later, the two girls departed. They decided to meet in the hospital entrance in half an hour.

"Sorry I'm late. It took some time to apply for a half day leave!" Covi said.

When Dorie saw that Covi was breathing heavily to catch her breath, she asked, "Is it so difficult to apply for a leave in your company?"

"The manager was just being difficult!"

"You should have just gone straight to find Alistair for the leave!"

"In the end I told the manager that I am going for a maternity inspection with Annabelle and he let me go!"

Annabelle, "…"

Dorie, "…"

The law of the jungle!

After bringing out the boss, the manager had no way but to release her!

"All right, let's hurry and get inside!" Dorie chuckled.

Covi walked forward and the two friends walked side-by-side Annabelle and entered the hospital.

When they were in the clinic, Covi and Dorie remained quiet. They were afraid to disturb the doctor's examination.

"Miss Xia, everything is good and the baby is doing well. However, you must make sure to rest amply. Remember, the first three months are most important!" The doctor said.

When Annabelle heard that everything was fine, she was relieved, "Okay, I understand. Thank you, doctor!"

"You are most welcome!"

When the friends heard that, they were restful as well. At that time, Dorie walked forward and asked, "Doctor, can we tell the gender now?"

When the doctor heard Dorie, she was stunned. Annabelle wanted to know as well. However, she didn't ask because she didn't mind the gender. She would be fine with either boy or girl.

She was surprised that Dorie asked that question in her place.

"Doctor, I know that it might not be too appropriate. But do you mind to disclose that to us?"

The doctor smiled, "It's not that I don't want to tell you. But the baby still small and we couldn't tell. We need to wait a few more months to be able to do the detail scan!"

Dorie blinked, "Really?"

"We need to wait at least another four months to be able to tell!"

Dorie laughed awkwardly, "So that was it, thank you!"

"You are welcome!"

After the friends left the hospital, they were very happy.

"Now that the results come back fine, you should be restful!" Dorie smiled, "But sadly we still don't know the gender!"

"Be it a boy or girl, it is my child and I would love them the same!" Annabelle said that as she caressed her stomach. The woman was showing a motherly love already.

"I know, but I am still curious!" Dorie said.

"Then we shall wait another three months!" Covi said smilingly as well.

At that time, Annabelle's phone rang. Covi and Dorie glanced at her phone screen and saw that it was Alistair calling.

"How sweet, calling already!"

Annabelle looked at them and chuckled, "What now? Jealous?"

"Yeah, totally!"

"Then keep it up!" After saying that, Annabelle answered the call.

"Hello…"

"Are you outside?"

"How did you know?"

"It is noisy in your background!"

Annabelle felt that it was a waste of talent Alistair wasn't a detective for private investigator. He could even tell that…

"Yeah, I'm outside!"

"Why are you going out alone? Why not you get the driver to pick you?"

"I went to do a maternity inspection with Dorie and Covi. We are thinking of shopping after that so we got a cab!" Annabelle said.

Covi and Dorie were listening and imitating her from the side. After that they were giggling to themselves. Annabelle simply gave them an eye roll.

"I thought we are going there together tomorrow?"

"Dorie said it might be embarrassing for you to go into the women's clinic. Therefore she accompanied me!" Annabelle made sure to explain how thoughtful Dorie was.

"She went with you?"

"And Covi as well!"

The moment she mentioned Covi, Covi's body tensed up. She looked at Annabelle's expression intently. She was accompanying president Mu's wife to do a checkup, that shouldn't be considered absenteeism, right?

Her boss wouldn't be deducting her salary, right…?

"Okay, got it!" After saying that, they hung up the call.

At that time, Covi looked at Annabelle and asked, "Did president Mu say anything about me?"

"He said…" Annabelle looked at them and the friends looked back at her, waiting impatiently for her to finish her sentence.

Annabelle smiled and said, "He said he had troubled the two of you to accompany me for the checkup, therefore he asked me to treat the two of you to a good meal!"

After hearing that, Covi rested her heart.

"That's more like it. Luckily he still has some conscience!" Dorie said smilingly. After that, she turned around and looked at Dorie, "You are doing such a favor to accompany his wife, he should be giving you bonuses already! Why are you worried that he might deduct your salary?!"

"Now I am restful!"

After saying that, the three friends went for lunch together.

In the afternoon, they sat in a restaurant to eat.

Dorie didn't hold back at all and she picked all the expensive foods. Their table was almost full and both Covi and Annabelle were stunned.

"Yang Dorie, let me warn you, if you can't finish it, you have to bring it back!"

"Don't you worry about that, that's what I plan to do! Alistair had annoyed me for so long and I must do this to return the favor!"

Annabelle, "…"

Covi shook her head and laughed. The three friends began eating and chatting. At that time, Covi recalled something all of a sudden and she asked, "By the way, Dorie, is the man with you that time your boyfriend?"

Dorie was eating when she heard that and she almost choked.

"No, who told you that?" Dorie hurriedly took out a piece of tissue and wiped her lips.

"Do I even need to hear that from someone else? It was so obvious…"

"That simply prove that you have some eyesight issue. He isn't my boyfriend!" Dorie denied it right away.

Covi looked at her and asked, "… Really?"

Dorie nodded affirmatively, "He is single and so am I!"

"That is just perfect, no?"

Dorie, "… It's not like that. Never mind that, we are not together!"

Covi smiled and nodded, "All right then. By the way, I felt that I have seen him somewhere but I just couldn't remember it!" Covi said.

When Dorie heard that, she continued to eat and muttered, "Just a so-so face, nothing special that you have seen him before!"

When Annabelle and Covi heard her, they both laughed.

"Yeah, Su's face is just so-so… If any celebrity is were to hear that, they might get into a stroke or something!" Annabelle said.

Although she wasn't complimenting Dorie, the woman was smiling in pride as she heard that!

Dorie lowered her head and kept eating without saying anything.

After the lunch, Annabelle swiped Alistair's card and left.

Covi and Dorie couldn't help but exclaimed, "Sigh, look at these rich people. They don't even think when they swipe their card. I should have ordered more and eat more!"

Covi looked at her and said, "You can still eat?! Others almost thought that we have starved you for a long time!"

Before Dorie wanted to say something, she bent over and hugged her stomach, "It's hard to breathe…"

When Covi and Annabelle looked at Dorie, they broke into a laughter.

After the friends were done with lunch, they went for shopping. Since Annabelle was pregnant and she couldn't walk for a long time, they would take a break from time to time. Even if they were to buy anything, they wouldn't let Annabelle carry the bags. The woman was protected like a national treasure. After the shopping, they sent Annabelle home.

At that time, the sky hadn't turned dark yet and they weren't in a hurry to leave. When they saw some red wine in Annabelle's house, they started drinking.

The friends were chatting over the drink while Annabelle simply held a glass of milk.

Since she was pregnant, Covi and Dorie were careful not to let her take any alcohol.

They had a great afternoon and it had been a long while since Annabelle enjoyed such a quality time with her friends.

The three women had a good time chilling together and they drank a lot, almost one whole bottle.

Alistair's Lafitte…

After they had enough fun, they bid each other goodbye and left.

After they left, Annabelle felt tired and sleepy. She climbed up her bed and took a nap.

Dorie called Su and asked him to pick her up but the man said he was busy and couldn't leave his post. Therefore, Dorie had no other way but took a cab back.

When she reached the shop, she saw that the place was crowded. Ever since Su joined them, it had always been like this. Dorie was used to it already and she found her way in.
