Annie was able topletely neutralize the tricky spot she fell in.
Fia remained in her seat elegantly, with her hands folded on herp. There was no sign of weakness in
her blinded, yet beautiful
eyes.
Annie waved a waitress over and ordered twelve dishes. The
vors of the dishes were quite varied. There were poultry, fish, cattle meats, and even a fruit sd in
the mix. These would
surely cover everyone’s taste buds.
Her colleagues looked at her with astonishment. The total cost of these dishes would cost a fortune.
After ordering those, Annie smiled at the waitress. “And a bottle of 82‘ Lafite, please.”
Several colleagues could not help but gasp at what she did.
A bottle of 1982 Chateau Lafite would cost at least 40,000 to 45,000 dors.
“Annie, you don’t have to spend thisvishly for the treat.”
“Yeah, you’re new in thepany. And it’s the beginning of your career. You haven’t earned much
money yet.”
“We get that you’re a generous host… but this is simply too expensive a meal for a treat…”
“It’s okay. It’s not expensive.” Annie took a cold nce at Fia. I’m treating Mrs. Maxwell to lunch. So, I
can’t mistreat her.”
Fia beamed up a warm smile. “Annie is such a good girl. Come
on, everyone. Let’s chow down.”
Everyone looked at one another with confusion. They could sense a weird, eerie vibe between Annie
and Mrs. Maxwell.
One of them opened her mouth cautiously. “There’s still work in the afternoon. Perhaps I shouldn’t
drink…”
“Don’t worry. Mrs. Maxwell is here. I’m quite certain that even if we’re too drunk to workter on, Mr.
Maxwell won’t be mad at us.” Annie put on a sweet smile. “Isn’t that right, Mrs. Maxwell?”
Annie was trying to put pressure on Fia, trying to see if it would break her. A glimpse of panic, fear…
Anything would do! Just a glimpse of that, and it would be her victory.
However…
Fia still maintained the appearance of an elegant, nobledy.” Miss Parker’s right. Rest assured, girls.
I’m here with you. Please, do enjoy yourself.”
Meanwhile, Tiger had heard everything nearby.

He took a look at Annie, wondering if he should report this to Conrad. However, the madam seemed to
be enjoying herself. If he told Conrad this, and he came to spoil the fun, this would make the madam
upset!
If the madam was upset, then Conrad would be upset too! Then, he and poor Ss would be on the
receiving end of Conrad’s wrath!
Sigh. It was probably the best for him to just keep on observing.
A whileter, the dishes were served. Annie’s colleagues did their best to serve Fia, fearing that she
would not be able to have
her meal properly without her eyesight.
Fia put a hand over the meal being served to her and rejected gently. “It’s alright, girls. I had a few bites
at home before
The girls let out a sigh of relief and thanked Fia for her generosity before digging in.
Annie opened the 1982 Chateau Lafite and began pouring everyone a ss. Fia was thest she
served.
“Mrs. Maxwell, would you fancy some of this?”
Fia smiled, “No, it’s alright. My husband and I are trying to have a baby. So, it would be best that I
refrain from alcohol.”
A surge of jealousy boiled in Annie’s heart while the other girls congratted Fia with sparkly envious
eyes.
“May you and Mr. Maxwell have a healthy baby soon, Mrs. Maxwell!”
“Yeah, perhaps you’ll have a boy and a girl! Yes!”
“Indeed! Indeed! Twins! That’d be great news!”
Fia smiled elegantly as she raised her ss of water. “Thank you, everyone.”
The girls raised their sses to cautiously touch them to Fia’s ss, fearing that even a tiny bit of
impact would ruin the hypothetical baby that was in her tummy. Because if she indeed was pregnant,
and if the baby was hurt, Mr. Maxwell would have their heads!
Annie was so pissed that she almost crushed the ss in her hands. Despite that, she still tried her
best to maintain the smile on her face.
What’s there to smile about, blinded b*tch?! She was not
pregnant, and yet she strolled out like she owned the street! Hmph! She looked as barren as a desert;
there was no way she could give birth to anything but a fart!
