My Killing President novel Chapter 745

Ten o'clock in the night.

The president's office in the Xia Group was brightly lit.

At that time, the door was pushed open suddenly.

Ralphy Xia was sitting behind his desk. When he heard the noise, he raised his head. But the moment he saw the person by the door, he was stunned.

"Brother!"

Annabelle Xia appeared by the doorstep.

Ralphy Xia's eyes were surprised for a little while and he said, "What are you doing here?"

Annabelle Xia walked inside and looked at him, "I'm here to look for you!"

"Have a seat!"

Annabelle Xia looked at him and walked over to his side. She grabbed his hand up. Ralphy Xia wanted to evade instinctively but Annabelle Xia managed to grab him.

When she saw that Ralphy Xia's arm had a burnt mark, she was stunned.

"Why didn't you stay back in the hospital?"

Ralphy Xia pulled his arm back and said, "It's nothing, just a small wound!"

"Small wound?" Annabelle Xia didn't know what to say. When they escaped the building, she saw the pillar falling on him clearly.

The woman walked away and she was familiar with the man's office. She tiptoed and got a first aid kit from the top of the cabinet.

Although it had been quite a long time since she last went there, she could still remember the arrangements in his office. Nothing had changed for the past year.

The woman carried the first aid kit back to the table. Ralphy Xia looked at her with a frown but he said nothing.

Annabelle Xia grabbed his arm and put it on the table. After that, she took up a cotton and started to clean his wound.

After she was done, she applied a disinfecting cream.

Ralphy Xia did not make a noise even though it was painful. The man simply waited as Annabelle Xia bandaged him.

"Since when had you learn to do all these?"

"This is just survival skills I picked up after living alone!" Annabelle Xia said.

Ralphy Xia did not talk anymore.

After Annabelle Xia was done, she said, "This is not enough. It is best for you to go check it out in the hospital!"

Ralphy Xia nodded.

Annabelle Xia put everything back into the first aid kit and looked at Ralphy Xia, "Brother, thank you so much for earlier!"

"Thank you for saving me and Alistair. I will never forget this!"

"If you are simply here to thank me, there is no need for that!"

Annabelle Xia looked at him and continued, "Bro, I do not know why you hate Alistair so much and I do not want to know. But one year had passed, I hope we can all let go of the past!"

Ralphy Xia bit his lips and didn't say anything. The man simply averted his eyes outside the window.

"We are one family. And I hope that we can stay together happily like one!" Annabelle Xia said.

Ralphy Xia lifted his glass of wine and wanted to drink. But when Annabelle Xia saw that, she snatched it over from him.

The man's eyebrows knitted closely as he looked at Annabelle Xia.

"You are injured, you shouldn't drink!"

Ralphy Xia just didn't know what to do. He had a grim expression and said nothing.

"Actually, I could tell that when you saved Alistair today, you have already let go of the past. Isn't it?" Annabelle Xia looked at him and asked. She had no doubt about that at all.

Ever since the sister came back, she dreaded to meet Ralphy Xia. Because she was afraid that it wasn't fair to Alistair Mu.

If it wasn't for what happened earlier, Annabelle Xia wouldn't meet up with Ralphy Xia at all.

But with what happened, she simply couldn't ignore him anymore.

Ralphy Xia didn't say anything and remained silent all the time.

When Annabelle Xia saw that he wasn't willing to talk, she said, "Since you don't want to talk, forget it. I will leave now!" After saying that, Annabelle Xia got up and wanted to leave.

Ralphy Xia looked at her back and he just couldn't describe his feelings. In the end, he called out, "Wait a while!"

Annabelle Xia stood by the door and turned her head back to look at him.

Ralphy Xia stood up and looked at her, "Tell Alistair Mu, everything between me and him is in the past. From hereby onwards, we wipe the slate clean!"

Annabelle Xia looked at him and a most hearty smile blossomed on her face, "Okay, I understand!"

"And…" Ralphy Xia seemed to be hesitant. It looked as if the man wanted to say something but he was embarrassed.

Annabelle Xia looked at him and her eyes were gleaming like the night stars, as she waited for his following words.

"Annabelle, sorry…" Ralphy Xia said.

This time round, Annabelle Xia was silent. She simply looked at Ralphy Xia and waited for him to continue.

"I have wronged you too much. One year ago… I had never thought that you would leave because of what I did… There is so much more. I had made so many mistakes. But you don't have to worry anymore. From now onwards, I will treat you like a sister wholeheartedly. It doesn't matter who bullies you, I will teach him a lesson as your brother!" Ralphy Xia said.

"And please relay my message to Alistair Mu. If he dares to let you down, I still wouldn't let him off easily!"

"Bro…" Annabelle Xia's eyes were misty.

"Therefore, Annabelle, please forgive me. Please forgive this brother for everything I had done!"

Annabelle Xia shook her head, "I have never blamed you. I will always remember who was the one that protected me when I got bullied when I was little; the person that got punished in my place after I created trouble; the person that safeguarded by my side all the time when I was sick… Bro, I have never forgotten any of that…" Annabelle Xia looked at him as her tears welled up. All of the sudden, she felt that they had went back to the way it was when they were little.

Ralphy Xia had gone back to being the brother that protected her against the world.

When Ralphy Xia heard that, his lips curled up, "I never expected you to remember all of that!"

"Of course I will remember that. And I will never forget it for the rest of my life!"

Ralphy Xia smiled heartily and he looked at the wine on his table, "Do you want to have a drink with me?"

"But you are wounded. You shouldn't drink!"

"Just a little bit?"

"Okay then!"

The brother and sister looked at each other and giggled.

Most of the time, it wasn't that one couldn't let go. But the time isn't right to let go.

Ralphy Xia knew that it was time for him to let go already.

……

When Ralphy Xia entered the house, he saw that the lights in the living room were still on.

"Mom? Why are you still awake at this hour?" Ralphy Xia looked at his mother and asked. Waynie Xu would rarely stay up so late.

Could she be waiting for him?

Waynie Xu stood up and said, "I was waiting for you.

"Waiting for me?"

Waynie Xu nodded, "Come over here!"

Ralphy Xia walked towards the mother slowly.

"Let mum have a look and see if you are injured anywhere!" Waynie Xu looked at him and said.

For the past year, Ralphy Xia had been trying to avoid direct confrontation. He would be coming home very late every night and leaving the house very early in the morning. If they were to have dinner together, he would be as quiet as possible. The mother knew that too many things were troubling her son.

But what happened today was a big deal and she was just too worried.

"Mom, I'm fine. You don't have to worry!" Ralphy Xia looked at her and asked.

"Are you really all right?" Annabelle Xia grabbed his arm and asked worriedly.

"Really!" Ralphy Xia held Waynie Xu's hand firmly and smiled at her, "Mom, don't worry. I will take care of myself properly. If there's anything, I will definitely do a checkup in the hospital!"

After the mother heard Ralphy Xia, she rested her heart. However, she noticed that something was different.

Did her son just smiled at her?

Waynie Xu was stunned and she thought that she had seen wrongly, "Ralphy, you…"

"Mum, it is pretty late now. You should rest already!"

"But you…"

The mother felt that Ralphy Xia was different. But she couldn't tell how and where.

"Mom, I have made you worry for the past year. But please rest assured. From now onwards, I will not do anything that worries you anymore!"

"You…" Waynie Xu was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. For the past year, Ralphy Xia hadn't been talking to her properly at all. And now, the son was speaking to her so lengthily and gently.

"Really?"
