when Annabelle heard that, she was stunned.
In another word, it was because manager Lee saw her resume and learned of the fact that she was a divorcee as well, hence the men got his confidence.
Annabelle was eating and the moment she heard Covi, she replied, "probably after seeing my resume, he found out that I was divorced too."
"PFMT*
Covi was eating and she almost spat out her food. Luckily, she managed to swallowed it back up.
And fortunately Annabelle dodged right in time, otherwise it would be disastrous on her dress.
"Why are you so shocked?" Annabelle looked at Covi and said.
Covi took out a piece of tissue and stared at Annabelle, "what did you say? You were divorced too? Is that true?" Covi asked Annabelle in disbelief.
Annabelle nodded and continued to eat her food indifferently, "of course it is true. Why, is it so weird to be divorced?"
"It's not weird, but…" Covi stared at Annabelle intently, "I wouldn't have guessed that you would be divorced!"
"What is there to be surprised for?" Annabelle answered calmly, "looking at the society now, there were instant marriage and instant divorce. It's only common now. Last I checked, the divorce rate was as high as sixty percent!"
"But…" Covi looked at Annabelle and she just couldn't tell what was the odd part. Finally, she breathed a sigh, "who was the fool that didn't know how to appreciate? How could he divorce someone so excellent?! I believe that man must be a fool!" Covi said.
And hence, being in his own office, Alistair made a graceful sneeze.
When Annabelle heard that, she nodded and burst into a chuckle.
If Alistair were to hear that, he must be burning in anger.
"Look at how gorgeous you are, even a woman like me couldn't help but falling for you. How could that man divorce you? His taste must be horrible!" Covi couldn't help but exclaimed.
After hearing Covi's remark, Annabelle raised her eyes to look at her and she was stunned.
When Covi saw that Annabelle was looking at her oddly, she was surprised.
Only then she realized what had she said and she hurriedly added, "I was simply making an example, if I were a man, I would definitely like you..."
