Chapter 37 An Unusual Meeting

"Heather, I said you should go out," Rupert ordered, his cold voice making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Rupert," Heather gasped, her eyes widened in disbelief.

"But I haven't explained the prospectus to you yet." Rupert frowned and glanced at her impatiently.

"Just drop it and go."

"But my brother told me to explain it to you carefully,"

Heather insisted, wearing a sad and pained expression.

Rupert was sending her out in the presence of Annabel.This was really embarrassing for her.

Rupert always used to be cold to her, but he had never driven her away like he was doing today.His attitude toward her changed the day Annabel appeared.

Rupert no longer even glanced in her direction.

Now, he was driving her out.She blamed all of this on Annabel.

Seeing the frustrated look on Heather's face, Annabel felt very delighted.

To rub salt in Heather's wound, she said with a sneer, "Do you doubt my fiance's ability? Do you think he can't read it by himself?"

Ignoring her, Heather quickly grabbed Rupert's arm and explained anxiously, "I didn't mean that, Rupert."

But Rupert pulled his arm out of her grip and told her with a frown, "Get out."

Heather had no choice but to obey.She glared at Annabel with fury in her eyes as she reluctantly walked out of the CEO's office.

"Well done," Annabel said to Rupert after Heather was gone.

"So, I'm not a stranger after all?" Rupert asked jokingly.

"Why did you call me your fiance?" Annabel smiled and shrugged.

"Well, you love Candy, right? I'm only helping you drive other women away.You don't want Candy to know that so many women are pestering you."
