Who Is The Real Boss?

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

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.
