Chapter 39 A Good Show Is On

The week went by quickly.

Surprisingly, it was not really an eventful week.

Heather didn't show up at Benton Group again, and Nina didn't give Annabel any more trouble.

But Annabel knew they wouldn't let her go so easily.

She knew it was the calm before the storm.

On the appointed day, Brett McCoy, the CEO of Lady Fashion, came on a visit to Benton Group.

Being the person in charge of the Lady Fashion project, Annabel would pick him up at the airport.

Before leaving, she checked and made sure that the materials needed for the meeting later in the afternoon were ready.

After making sure everything was okay, Annabel stood up and got ready to go to the airport.

But as she went out to take the elevator, she saw that the doors were about to close.

She rushed over, shouting, "Wait for me please!"

A tall figure walked over and put out his foot to keep the doors open.

"Thank you so much," Annabel said gratefully.

But when she looked up at the person's face, she was stunned.

It was Rupert! Why was he here? She was surprised at the fact that he even kept the elevator doors open for her.

Seeing the surprised look on her face, Rupert said in a low tone, "Come in quickly."

"Oh, thank you," Annabel said with a smile and stepped into the elevator.

Rupert quickly followed her in.

"I'll go to the airport with you," Rupert said flatly when he noticed Annabel's confused look.

Annabel was surprised.

"Don't worry.I'll go alone," she quickly said.

How could Rupert go with her to pick someone up at the airport? He was a busy CEO, for crying out loud.
