Who Is The Real Boss?

Chapter 28 Annabel, Thank You

Annabel bowed and said politely, "I'm sorry.I have to leave for a while."

"Where are you off to?" Rupert asked with a slight frown.

"Lunch will be served soon."

What was so important that Annabel wanted to leave at this time? "something just came up."

With that, Annabel stood up and walked out of the door.She called the doctor at the veterinary hospital.

"Hello, Annabel Hewitt speaking.I dropped off a dog for treatment a few days ago.How is it now?"

The veterinarian's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I was just about to call you.The dog has fully recovered."

"Oh, that's good to know.I'm on my way to pick it up now," said Annabel, breathing a sigh of relief.

The dog Annabel saw Bruce holding in the picture shared a striking resemblance with the stray dog she saved some days back.

More so, the collar was exactly the same.She could feel it in her guts that the stray dog was the long-lost Dolly.

Judging how sad Rupert looked when he spoke about the dog, it seemed that it meant a lot to Bruce.

Annabel wanted to get the dog back to the old man right away.

Erica was fuming.

"What's wrong with Annabel? She just walked out on all of us!"

Heather echoed, "I can't believe she left us all to wait for her before having lunch.Who does she think she is?"
