Chapter 20 Agreement
Chapter 20 Agreement
“Are you suggesting that you will agree to whatever I want?”
Annabelle’s grip on the phone tightened. She didn’t like the sound of that, scared even. His words
sounded too wrong… and too intimate… Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Annabelle didn’t know what was hatching in Mu’s mind. All she knew was that her emotion has been
riding a rollercoaster, fully grasped by this dangerous man. He is like a monarch, unpredictable and full
of enigmatic charm.
“What… what do you mean!?” Annabelle asked, unknowingly she was nervous as a bride.
“What do I mean? How can you ask for favours and don’t know what that mean?” Mu replied with a
sardonic laugh.
At that moment, Annabelle was completely cornered. She felt utterly hopeless as Mu had gotten the
upper hand. There was nothing she could do against the Ace up his sleeve.
The idea of Dorie getting jail time for something as trivial as that was tormenting her. Moreover, her
intuition told her that Dorie was only a victim of collateral damage!
Alistair must be exacting revenge because of Yoi’s incident!
After some consideration, Annabelle opened her mouth, “Ok I…I accept! Just tell me what you want!”
and it was like all her energy was drained.
Everything was dancing perfectly to his tune and Mu expected nothing less. Although Annabelle had
compromised slightly earlier than expected, that just proved that she was a sharp-witted woman. She
knew that had she continued to drag on, things will definitely escalate and Mu will eventually raise the
bar!
“Are you sure…?” Mu’s deep voice was hauntingly charming.
“Yes. I’m sure Mr. Mu isn’t someone who quits until he gets what he wants. So I’ll take my chances
while I still can.” Her steady voice showed that she was determined.
That sure did not sound like a compliment, Mu thought to himself, but it wasn’t untrue either.
“Alright, I have a challenging case on my hand, and since you have extensive experiences overseas, I
think you are best suited for the job and I believe you can handle it well.”
“…that’s it?” Annabelle asked in confusion.
“That’s it. What else are you expecting?” Mu found satisfying pleasure when he teased the gullible
woman.
Annabelle was rendered speechless. Mu was too unpredictable for her, but now everything seemed to
be better than expected!
“Ok, I accept. Please honour your words and drop your charges against Dorie!”
“Hold your horses Miss Xia. I will only consider that after you complete your task!” Mu grinned
ruthlessly over the phone.
“Hey!”
“Rest assured, I won’t sue her either, she is safe… for now.”
Annabelle’s eyebrows knitted worriedly, but she knew that was the best she could ask for. Mu will not
compromise any further.
“Alright. You have a deal!”
“Deal,” Mu gave his word doubtlessly, “See you tomorrow in office!” And he hung up the call.
In the president’s office, Mu laze comfortably on his chair, eyes still on his phone and he seemed to be
in a pleasant mood. Everything went according to his plan!
On the other side, Annabelle sighed wearily. Who would’ve thought after all these dramas happening,
and she’s back to Yun Rui again!
But if that could be helpful to Dorie, it was worth doing. Her eyes shone beautifully with kindness and
serenity.
Little did she knew, all this was a conspiracy designed just for her…
