Who Is The Real Boss?

"Trust me.Annabel is a shameless slut.It's like a game to her, seeing how many men she can seduce.She doesn't deserve your affection," Heather said to Rupert.

"She used to date Rory and Marcel.Here in France, she went to a bar in the middle of the night to pick up men.She cheated on you."

"Enough!"

Rupert snapped.

Heather was incredibly irritating.He tugged at his tie and checked his watch.

Annabel had been in the bathroom for a long time.

What could be keeping her so long? Had she left out of anger? Rupert tried calling Annabel, but her phone was switched off.

Concerned, he headed for the ladies' room.

"Rupert, where are you going?" Heather called after him.Rupert ignored her.

Heather stood up and followed him.

A fierce look flashed across her eyes.

She guessed that Annie must have succeeded.

"Annabel, you're doomed!"

Heather murmured.

Standing in front of the sink, Annabel patted her face with cold water and looked up at herself in the mirror.She hadn't had a good sleep last night, and it showed.

The dark circles around her eyes were noticeable.

She couldn't deny that Rupert had moved her just now.

Despite his usual manner of restrained dignity, he'd confessed his love for her in front of everyone.

Anyone would be moved.

What confused her was the fact that he had called her Candy last night.

With Candy still in his life, she didn’t know if she could trust Rupert.

Annabel closed her eyes, massaged her temples, and took some deep, measured breaths in an attempt to quell the storm of emotions that raged in her heart.

Suddenly, she felt something hard and cold pressed against her neck.
