Chapter 69 Overheard 2


    Annabelle’s heart was lifted to the throat again.


    “Mr. Mu!” She greeted indifferently.


    Mu noticed her cup of coffee and arched an eyebrow, “Tired?”


    “I’m fine!”

    “If you’re tired then just go home and get some rest.”


    Annabelle was a little surprised at his gentleness, “It’s fine, I can still manage!”


    “Alright then,” Mu nodded clinically and left for his office.


    As soon as he left, Annabelle rxed her nerves and went back to her department.


    Thanks to the shock, Annabelle was productive all the way until noon. She added some finishing touch


    to her design and moved on to the Yuan Shi case with Covi. She found that Covi was apetent


    partner and they could work very efficiently and effectively together.


    When it was lunch time, Yoi appeared by the doorsteps. And that triggered a tide of gossiping. Of


    course, everyone knew the sole reason for her visit must be Mu, the two probably were going to lunch


    together.


    As Yoi sauntered past DoD, her gaze immediately picked up her adversary. She red fiercely at


    Annabelle, ying their encounter that night in her mind.


    Annabelle noticed her too and was speechless at her ridiculousness. She avoided eye-contact and


    Mu looked at the time and he was about to find Annabelle for lunch. Before he could put his documents


    aside, his door was knocked and Yoi entered.


    Mu instinctively lowered his eyebrows and asked, “Howe you’re here?”


    Yoi pouted her lips and quickly nipped to his side, “Alistair, have you forgotten about me? It’s been a


    few days and you didn’t even look for me!”


    And Mu realised it had been a while since hest called her.


    “I waspletely preupied, busy with thepetitiontely.” He exined monotonously.


    “Is it?” Yoi rubbed coquettishly against him, “And I thought you had a change of heart!”


    Mu furrowed his eyebrows and stare at her, “Are you grumbling at me now?”


    Yoi was afraid to stir his anger. She hurriedly purred, “I was just too afraid to lose you. Can we have


    lunch together?” She wrapped her arms around his neck dallyingly.


    Though unwilling, Mu didn’t have much choice.


    “Ok!”


    “Alright, I have booked a ce!” Yoi hoorayed.


    Mu got up and strode straight to the door, while Yoi hopped around to get his coat and followed closely.


    When they walked past DoD, Yoi flung herself on Mu and grabbed on his arm. Annabelle was standing


    nearby waiting for Covi to get lunch and she saw them.


    She knew Yoi was trying to mark her turf but they just lookedical like a shark with remora.


    Annabelle couldn’t be less bothered at her.


    In the meantime, Yoi purposely closed in to her and called out, “Miss Xia!”


    And Annabelle’s attempt to ignore her was in vain. She exaggerated a pretentious smile and


    responded, “Miss Han!”


    “Hey, do you want to join us for lunch?” Yoi asked untingly.


    “Sorry I have ns. Furthermore, that will just ruin my appetite.” And without giving her any further


    attention, she turned to Covi and smiled, “Let’s go!”


    And the Annabelle left without giving a cat’s arse.


    Colours faded from Yoi’s face…
