Who Is The Real Boss?

Chapter 48 Feed Me

Gritting her teeth, Annabel did her best to support Rupert with one hand while the other reached into his pocket.

Annabel's hand rummaged through the pocket.

Soon, her fingers brushed against something.

Rupert stiffened.

"What're you looking for? The key or something else?"

"Sorry!"

When Annabel realized what she had touched just now, her face turned as red as a tomato.She apologized in a hurry and started searching for the key in the opposite direction.

What was going on today? Was the universe determined to give her a hard time? Even the key decided to hide from her! She reached into the deepest part of the pocket, but she still couldn't find the damn key.

Annabel fumbled in Rupert's pocket anxiously, but to no avail.

Through the cloth, Rupert could feel Annabel's hand brushing against his thigh.Her touch sent waves of electricity through him, which felt both excruciating and intoxicating.

"Rupert, where's your key? There's no key here!"

After a while, Annabel was so tired that she broke into a sweat.Still, Rupert was leaning on her.He unhurriedly patted his pocket with his uninjured hand and frowned.It seemed that the key wasn’t there.

After a while, his expression darkened.

"I just remembered, it's in the other pocket."

"What the—" Annabel cursed.

Rupert shrugged and just pointed to the pocket on his right.

Annabel was so exasperated.This scheming man must have done it on purpose! She just kicked him! How could he be so mean? Besides, she didn't mean to hurt him! He was the one who jumped in front of her to block the knife.

Annabel grumbled to herself as she fumbled to unlock the door.

Finally, the door opened, and she used the last of her strength to drag Rupert to the couch.

"Stay there first."

Just as she was about to stand up, her legs buckled from underneath her.

"Ah!"

With a scream, Annabel fell into Rupert's arms.
