Who Is The Real Boss?

Chapter 19 The Stolen Ring No?

That meant Annabel wasn't the girl Rupert met when he was a child.

A disappointed look was written all over Rupert's handsome face.

Oblivious to how he was feeling, Annabel stared at him in suspicion.

What did he mean? Did he want her to get kidnapped? None of them said anything for the rest of the ride.

When they got home, Erica handed Rupert an invitation and said, "Don't forget Brock Norman is holding a banquet for his seventieth birthday this weekend."

The banquet was scheduled to hold in Imperial Hotel—the most luxurious hotel in the city.

All the guests were either rich, powerful, or both.

Annabel had gotten her fair share of attending banquets after the company's anniversary a few days back.

Much to her displeasure, Erica woke her up early in the morning and lectured her about it.

"Get up! You must not embarrass this family!"

Erica uttered coldly, wagging her finger at Annabel.

The banquet hall was bustling with life.

Many people were chatting and cheering in their dashing outfits.

However, the whole thing was boring to Annabel.
