Who Is The Real Boss?

Chapter 121 Traumatic Flight 

At the mention of Annabel's leaving, Rupert's expression darkened.

Did she want to leave because of what his mother said just now? Or was it because...? "Annabel, my mother's just like that.Please don't take her words seriously."

As he spoke, Rupert took a step forward and placed his hand on Annabel's shoulder.His eyes were bore unfathomable emotion.

In a hoarse voice, he added, "Trust me.I'll deal with my mother, and I won't let her make things difficult for you."

When Annabel's eyes met Rupert's, her heart skipped a beat.She took a step back, forced a smile, and changed the topic.

"Let's stop talking about this.We should get going."

Hearing this, Rupert returned to his usual cold and indifferent self.He nodded and said, "Let's go."

The two arrived at the airport.

Annabel followed Rupert until they stopped in front of a jet.

"Is this yours?"

Annabel surveyed the luxury jet in front of her.Her grandfather wanted to buy a jet for her as a birthday gift before, but she refused because she was afraid of heights.

"Mr.Benton, Miss Hewitt."

The captain and the flight attendant stood at the door and respectfully welcomed Rupert and Annabel.

"Go on."

Rupert held Annabel's hand and helped her up the stairs to the jet.

Soon, the jet took off and headed into the clouds.

In the blink of an eye, they were a hundred thousand feet high.

Annabel sat beside Rupert, staring at the clouds from the window.

"What's on your mind?"

Rupert's deep, magnetic voice suddenly sounded in Annabel's ears.

"Nothing."

Annabel turned around and met Rupert's inquisitive gaze.She cleared her throat and said quickly, "I was just wondering who our enemy is."

"We will know when we arrive in France." Rupert smiled.
