Who Is The Real Boss?

Chapter 49 Should I Help You Take Your Shower

Annabel was rendered speechless.

"Didn't you say that you would repay me for saving your life?" Rupert asked, his expression cold and serious.

It was just a joke, but that did not occur to Annabel since his expression was so serious.

Taking a look at Rupert's wound, she said helplessly, "Okay."

After all, Rupert had stopped the knife from getting to her.

Seeing how unwilling she seemed, Rupert couldn't help but feel disappointed.He took the cutlery from Annabel and said with a smile, "I'm just kidding.I can do it myself."

Annabel breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, when did Rupert start joking? He was always cold and serious.

Meanwhile, Rupert was not used to eating with his left hand, so it took some time and effort for him to finish his meal.

When he was done, he wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin.

"It tastes good," he praised.

"I'm glad you like it," Annabel said and stood up to clean the table.

"Put it aside.Someone will clean it up tomorrow,"

Rupert said with a sigh and started rubbing his temples.

"I'm so tired."

"Let me help you to your room so you can have some rest,"

Annabel offered.She also felt tired and wanted to go to bed early.

After all, she had a lot of work to do the next day, so she needed to wake up early and refreshed.

"Okay," Rupert agreed.

It took Annabel some serious effort to help get Rupert to his room.She was going to help him sit on the bed when he suddenly stopped.

"I want to take a shower first," he told her.

With her eyelashes trembling, Annabel blurted, "Do you also want me to help you shower?"

Seeing her on the alert, Rupert loosened his tie with his left hand and a playful smile slowly appeared on his face.

"Run me a bath."
