My Killing President novel Chapter 700

Ever since that day, Ralphy did not appear anymore.

At the very least, Renee An did not see him.

Women are truly a peculiar creature. When the man wanted to come, she would try everything she could to chase him away. Now that the man didn't come anymore, she felt dejected.

At the very least, Renee An felt that he should insist on staying here. And as for whether he stays or not, it was up to her decision.

The woman was an embodiment of conflict.

For the coming two days, the man did not appear. Although Renee An's emotion wasn't riled, she was lifeless.

Waynie was in the hospital most of the time, taking care of Renee An. However, the daughter in law showed no respect and simply ignored her.

"Renee, even if you are angry, you should take care of your body. Why are you harming yourself like this?" Waynie coaxed her.

When it was getting late in the night, Waynie left the ward.

The moment she got out, she saw Ralphy standing outside.

"Ralphy…"

Ralphy walked forward and asked, "How is she?"

"She just ate something and she is sleeping now." The mother replied.

Ralphy nodded.

"Since you came, why don't you go in and visit her?" Waynie asked.

"I better not. She doesn't want to see me and I do not wish to quarrel with her, lest she gets emotional again!" Ralphy said indifferently. The man wasn't showing any emotion and the mother just couldn't guess what he was thinking.

Waynie sighed, "It is only normal for any couple to quarrel. I hope this will pass and Renee will come back to us!"

Ralphy did not say anything in return.

"By the way, Sky An said Renee will be moving back after she gets discharged!" Waynie said with a sigh.

Ralphy was surprised. He raised his gaze and took a look at Waynie. His gaze was deep and unreadable. In the end, the son spoke, "Maybe that's for the best!"

"How can that be? If that happened, things will just get more serious! Ralphy, what actually happened to push things so far?" Waynie asked.

"Mum, don't ask about that. I will handle that!" The son replied.

"Every time I do that and you would asked me not to care or not to interfere. Do you think your mother wants to do that? I simply don't want the two of you to stay in such a bad relationship. I believe she is just a woman, even if anything were to happen, you can just pay more effort to comfort her. Why can't you try harder?" The mother's tone was blaming him but she was worried about him as well.

About that…

Could words of comfort make things better?

The man was afraid that Renee An's well had been poisoned. It just wasn't easy to make her let go!

And since the father wanted her to move back… It was a good chance to let her cool down a little. Maybe it would do both of them some good!

"Okay mum, let me send you back!" Ralphy said.

Waynie sighed and didn't ask anymore. The mother followed him out the hospital.

……

The next day.

Annabelle came to visit Renee An again.

She purposely avoided the peak hours.

When Annabelle looked at Renee An in the bed, she said, "Sis, how are you feeling? Do you feel better today?"

Renee An's gaze was cold and distancing as usual, "Stop calling me sis! I can't stand it. Annabelle, if you don't want to humiliate me, stop calling me that!" Renee An said with disgust.

Annabelle nodded and didn't want to quarrel with her, "Okay, Renee!"

Renee An sneered, "What now? What do you want from me?"

"I brought some chicken soup, do you want to drink it now?"

"No. Just spill it!"

When Annabelle saw how impatient she was, she wasn't offended. The woman felt responsible with what Renee An was experiencing.

She pondered for a while and said, "Renee, I wish to talk to you. A proper and peaceful talk."

Renee An didn't say anything and simply stared coldly at her.

She was in silent acquiescence. Annabelle continued, "I know that you are angry at me, even hateful and resentful towards me. But aside from apologizing, I have something else to tell you!"

"I know you wouldn't be able to let go, nor forgive me. But I still wish to tell you that: many things might happen to one's life. But fortunately, there are things that were destined since the beginning and it will never change!"

"I think you should know that I am not the real daughter of the Xia family." As Annabelle said that, she smiled faintly and bitterly. However, the woman had completely let go of that past already.

"I do not know of my real parents and I found out about that when I was a teenager. At that time, I found it difficult to swallow and I even tried to pull myself away from them. I gave up on business management because I was afraid to take anything that belongs to my brother. I do not want anything from them. And that, was all I could think of that time."

"In order to separate myself from the family, I married Alistair. And after that, I divorced him and left the country. Everything seemed to be prearranged by destiny. I did not want to go back because I didn't want to face them. I did not want to face the person that I thought was closest to me, yet they weren't. But in the end, I realized it was such a huge mistake. I was just like their own daughter. The blood ties did not make a difference. I was regretful that I learnt of that too late!"

"Therefore, I am thankful towards my father, mother and brother. I appreciated their love and care. And I feel so fortunate to be able to join such a loving family. If it weren't for them, I can't even imagine what kind of life I will be living now. Therefore, aside from their family love, I am deeply grateful towards them!"

"Is that all you want to tell me?" Renee An asked with a hoarse voice. She looked at her and her attitude was disinterested and cold.

Annabelle continued, "I simply want to tell you, that you are the one in charge of your own happiness. My destiny with my brother was decided and nothing will change in the future. Or maybe you have seen something and maybe that was just the initial feelings when we were younger. Even if that person wasn't me, it might be someone else. Renee, I sincerely wish the best for you and brother. And I treated you as my sister-in-law wholeheartedly!"

Renee An was confused after listening to her.

Annabelle was making sense. Even if it wasn't her, it might be someone else.

However, the problem was that Renee An could accept as long as it was anyone but Annabelle…

How could she face the two of them in the future? The woman knew that her short duration with Ralphy was unable to replace such a deep rooted feelings for years.

And she was so sure that no matter what she does, she wouldn't be able to replace the existence of Annabelle!

Such was the hatred birthed from love!

Renee An's eyes were red and but she didn't say anything. Annabelle simply held her hand firmly and said, "Renee, brother's feelings aren't meant for me. I am contended and happy now. I love Alistair, I love the child in my womb and I love my life now. None of that will change. Therefore, I hope that you won't mind me. I could tell that he treats you differently. As long as you are willing, I believe happiness belongs to you!"

"But I am exhausted already." She said.

Annabelle stared at her.

"It is a grief to love a man that doesn't love you back. And I will not let this grief continues!"

Renee An averted her face and wiped her tears silently.

Annabelle didn't know what her tears meant. However, she knew she had tried her best, saying everything she should. If Renee An decided to hate her doggedly, there was just nothing she could do.

At that time, Renee An pulled her hand back and said, "You should leave. I wish to have some quiet time to myself!"

Since she said that, there was nothing Annabelle could say. She nodded, "Okay, get some rest!"

When Renee An flipped over, Annabelle stood up and walked away…

Right after she went out the ward, her phone rang.

"How was it? Are you out?"

"Yeah, I'll go back to the company now!"

"I'll go pick you up!"

"There's no need for that. I can just take a cab!"

"Ten minutes. I'm on my way!"

Annabelle smiled as she held her phone, "Okay!"

After she walked out to the hospital's entrance, she simply needed to wait for a few minutes and she saw the familiar car appearing in her sight.

The car stopped before her and Alistair came down. His ever so manly, tall and strong built gave her a great sense of security. At that moment, Annabelle didn't know why but she just wanted to hug him.

As she thought about that, she simply did it.

The woman stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly.

Alistair hugged her back with one arm and chuckled, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. I simply want to hug you!"

"Darling, admit it, you can't leave me anymore!" Alistair hugged her back and smiled conceitedly. The man was contended.

"Okay, I'll admit it!" Annabelle leaned on his chest and admitted gently.

Alistair smiled and kissed her forehead. After that, the two of them got into the car.

In Alistair's office.

Annabelle looked at him hesitantly, "Alistair, don't you want to ask me what happened?"

Alistair looked at her, "About what?"

"Everything. Actually, I should've told you myself." Annabelle said.

At that time, Alistair stretched out his hand and hugged her, letting her sit on his lap.

"I know what you want to say. I know it all. However, I don't want to hear it. I simply need to know that this part belongs to me!" He pointed at her heart and said.

As Annabelle looked at his gesture, her eyes were gleaming with gentleness. She stretched out her hand and hugged Alistair back, kissing him.

When Alistair saw that she was in the mood, the man just couldn't hold back anymore. He loved it when Annabelle takes the initiative. Therefore, the man simply grabbed the back of her head and kissed her passionately…

……

Su had been ranking in the hot search for consecutively one week. Therefore, the man needed to hide with Dorie for the time being.

When they thought that they needed to continue hiding, Peter gave them a good news.

The man had accepted a TV drama for Su and that would be his debut.

"Why are there two of them?"

"Both of the producers have a good relationship with me. Therefore, I requested for the scripts from both of them and see which one Su prefers. This will be his debut work!" Peter said.

Su glanced at the scripts and looked at Dorie, "What do you think?"

"Me?" Dorie pointed at herself.

Su nodded.

Therefore, Dorie took up the two scripts on the table, one of them is called Twilight, the other Return.

Both the drama were of romance genre.

Peter continued, "The male lead in Return wasn't decided yet. If I make an effort, it is a high chance we can get Su to act that. However, the male lead in Twilight was already decided!"

When Dorie heard Peter's explanation, she nodded and checked out the script. As per her point of view as an audience, she preferred Twilight. It was a modern love story with a good plot. Dorie had a good impression of it.
