Chapter 110


    Chapter 110 Go Abroad


    The atmosphere in the private room turned tense.


    Annabelle had always felt conflicted.


    On the one hand, she was able to escape from her painful past and live a new life because of the


    Sce family. She was also able to study abroad and be the person she wanted to be.


    On the other hand, the better she lived, the more miserable she felt.


    That was because everything she had now was in exchange for her father’s life.


    Every time she thought about this, she felt tormented.


    She knew the Sce family treated her well and fully paid their debts to her. She knew she should be


    grateful, but she could not do it.


    Likewise, she felt contradictory toward the Sce family.


    Whenever she visited the Sce family, seeing the loving parents, the kind grandchildren, and the


    harmonious siblings, Annabelle felt upset and unjust. She wondered why it was not someone from the


    Sce family who died. She thought, “Why wasn’t it Christopher but my dad?”


    On the other hand, she regarded the Sce family as her family.


    She thought the Sce family would feel the same toward her even if she did not marry Christopher


    and be the Sce family’s daughter-inw. She pondered, “Were those feelings fake all these


    years?”


    “That’s not what he means, Annabelle.” La looked at Annabelle’s pale face and exined, “I do this


    not only for Christopher and the Sce family but also for you. It has almost been 20 years since the


    incident. You and Christopher should move on. If you continue this, you and Christopher will only


    diverge more in the future. You are only 26 years old and have a long future. No matter if it’s me, Ken,


    or any other member of the Sce family, everyone wishes you to live a good life.”


    Although they were not rted by blood, La truly thought of Annabelle as her own sister.


    Annabelle was not even ten years old when she came to the Sce family. For ten years, La saw


    her grow from a weak and timid little girl to a beautiful and mature woman. It would be impossible for


    La to have no affection for her.


    At this point, Kendrick was not wrong.


    Tears rolled out of Annabelle’s eyes, and she quickly raised her hand and wiped them away in a panic.


    She inhaled slightly, and her full lips curved into a smile. “My apologies. I lost myposure.”


    La handed her a tissue. “No matter if you’re married to Christopher or not, you are still our sister,


    Annabelle.”


    Annabelle did not respond as she lightly dried her tears with the tissue. After she regained her


    composure, she looked at Kendrick and asked, “What do you want me to do, Ken?”


    Kendrick asked, “Do you want to go abroad?”


    Hearing this, Annabelle immediately understood.


    Kendrick wanted to send her abroad to stay away from Christopher and never disturb his life again.


    She smiled. “Okay.”


    Kendrick looked at her, paused a little, and then said, “I will make arrangements for you, whether it’s life


    or work. Of course, you can contact La or me if you have any trouble. We won’t abandon you.”


    Annabelle grinned and gazed at the two. “Thank you, Ken, La.”


    After Annabelle got in a car and left, La looked at Kendrick and asked, “Aren’t our actions to her too


    cruel?”

    Although Annabelle had been abroad for three years, Christopher had apanied her then. Now,


    they wanted to send her abroad alone to live in a foreign country without family or friends.


    Kendrick asked, “Do you know what your biggest problem is, La?”


    La froze and nced at him quietly.


    You are soft-hearted.”


    That was why Kendrick wanted to train Christopher. In fact, La had always been capable at work,


    but she was too kind and could not make cruel decisions.


    This was a fatal thing for a manager.


    Kendrick continued, “There will always be a price to pay. Otherwise, you can’t gain anything. Since


    Christopher chose Yuliana, he must cut ties with Annabelle. Likewise, if he had chosen Annabelle,


    Yuliana would have to be let go.”


    He looked at La and said, “You didn’t need to exin so much to Annabelle just now.”


    For Annabelle, the exnation just now made them seem like hypocrites.


    From the beginning, Kendrick aimed to protect Christopher and simultaneously give Annabelle the best


    arrangement.


    La frowned. “Regardless, she is our sister, too.”


    “How can I be heartless to her? La thought.


    Kendrickforted, “Transportation is very convenient now. If you miss her, you can often fly abroad to


    see


    her’


    La knew what Kendrick meant and nodded.


    At the same time, La’s driver had driven the car over, and she said to Kendrick, “I’ll go back first.”


    Kendrick nodded, watched La get in the car, and then followed his assistant to another car.


    Soon, both cars left the entrance of the restaurant.


    After Annabelle left, she did not immediately return to Grand Ind Mansion but requested the driver to


    take her to Highfield Manor.


    It was dark in Highfield Manor. It seemed that the owner had not returned.


    She sat on the steps at the door and leaned her head against the wall, feeling drowsy


    She had woken up at 6 a m. that day to catch the ne. After a two-hour flight, the airnended at


    the airport, and she waited another hour to board the ne. The flight took about two hours before it


    reached Juxshire. She had just finished showering when she received La’s call.


    On that day, she had not stopped to rest, both physically and mentally.


    Now that everything was settled, she rxed and felt a wave of fatigue.


    Atst, she fell asleep as she sat there.


    After falling asleep, she had a dream.


    In the dream, it was a cold winter. There was snow and rain at night. A little boy dragged a girl as they


    sprinted on a never-ending pathway. Only the whistling cold wind and their rapid, fearful breathing


    could be heard.


    It was as if they were the only ones in the world.


    “Who are you, miss?”


    A woman’s gentle voice suddenly sounded. Annabelle woke up from her dream. She lifted her eyes


    and saw a pair of men’s leather shoes and a pair of women’s high heels appearing in her sight.


    She looked up and saw Harry and a delicate, dignified woman standing in front of her.


    Annabelle stared at the woman. She was very young, and her eyes were clear and innocent. She was


    probably in her early 20s. Judging from her dress and temperament, she was obviously anotherdy


    from a prominent family.


    “Yes. She is a good match for Harry,” Annabelle thought.


    Thinking of this, she looked at Harry, who was also looking at her. His eyes were as cold as ever, and


    she could not read his emotions.


    Yet, a few years ago, she could’ve seen through those eyes with ease.


    It was tiring looking up and it did not suit Annabelle’s style. She wanted to stand up, but her legs were


    numb from sitting for too long. She tried to stand up but fell miserably.


    Her tailbone hurt.


    She frowned and took some time to calm down before standing up gracefully. She looked at Harry and


    the


    woman before her and smiled. “I’m sorry, I’ve gone the wrong way.”
