Who Is The Real Boss?

Chapter 44 Who Exactly Is Annabel

Annabel followed Rupert back to his office.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

Rupert sat on the sofa and crossed his legs.

Then he pointed to a spot beside him.

"Sit down," he ordered.

Confused, Annabel sat next to him.

"Rupert, what's the matter?"

Rupert opened his thin lips slightly and said in a calm voice, "You were the initiator, weren't you?"

The initiator? Was he angry? Was he complaining about the fact that she had exposed Nina in public? Or was he unhappy that he had to fire Nina? Was he blaming her for it? Annabel looked warily at him and asked, "Rupert, what do you mean?"

The man turned his expressionless face and looked into her eyes.His eyes were like two whirlpools, deep and unfathomable.He nodded slightly and shifted close to her.

"You already knew that Nina would replace the drawings.And you arranged for Talia to expose her crime.Everything was arranged by you, right?"

Rupert already knew the answer, but he just wanted to hear it from Annabel herself.

Annabel must have known for long that Nina was going to frame her, so she went ahead and arranged to trap her.

Not only did Nina get exposed but also got fired from Benton Group.

At the same time, this would be a warning to Bernice, thereby killing two birds with one stone.

Everything that happened today was under Annabel’s control.Her means was accurate, ruthless and decisive.He appreciated it so much.It was hard to imagine that a young girl from the countryside would be so smart and courageous.

Again, Rupert shifted even closer to Annabel.

The distance between the two was virtually non-existent, making Annabel's face turn red with embarrassment.

Why did he move so close to her? She quickly shifted away from him and said in a serious tone, "No.Of course, the initiator was Nina.I didn't try to set her up; I just defended myself.She wanted to frame me.How could I sit still and wait for her to destroy me? If she hadn't tried to frame me, these things wouldn't have happened.So, I just gave her a dose of her own medicine.I don’t think I did anything wrong."
