Chapter 97 Truth 5
However, little did she knew, love was supposed to equal and uplifting; it doesn’t need anyone to
discard their pride and self-efface for the sake of the other person. And if that happened, most probably
it isn’t love.
In a short moment, the party will begin. Thus the crowd gathered together. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
A jovial host walked up the stage and lifted the atmosphere. After that it should be Mu’s turn to give a
speech. However since Mu was not there, he just skipped his turn and invited Annabelle up.
Annabelle had prepared herself downstage. The moment her name was called, she walked up
gracefully.
As she stood on the stage, her elegance and stupendous appearance impressed the crowd. The men
were secretly admiring her and women aspired to be her.
The hall settled in silence and waited for her.
“Good evening, I am Annabelle, the representative designer from Yun Rui. First of all, let me thank you
all for coming of behalf of our company!”
Annabelle talked and smiled pleasantly. She wanted to drag it a little until Mu appears. However, after
the round of applause subsided, he was still nowhere to be seen. And thus she continued.
“I was actually surprised to have won this prize and there’s nothing much to say.
I just wanted to give thanks to my mentors, my company and my boss. I am thankful that they gave me
such an opportunity!”
For the crowd, it didn’t even matter what she said. Her beauty alone had captured their heart…
Ralphy was there too. He sipped on his wine and was fixated on Annabelle. A faint smile was on his
face…
Meantime, two people who came late entered the hall…
The moment the woman saw who was giving a speech, she was baffled, “Isnt that Annabelle?”
A slow realization seeped in and she yanked the arm of her partner, “Teneria, are my eyes playing
tricks? That is Annabelle right!?”
The couple was Annabelle’s parents. Her father, Teneria Xia and her mother, Waynie Xu.
“Of course it is!” He replied in excitement.
“When did she come back?”
“How would I know!”
And they hurriedly moved closer.
At that time, Ralphy noticed them and rushed forward, “Dad, mum, how come you’re here?”
“Can’t we come?” His father complained. The man was the president of the Xia Group, moreover, the
ex-father in law for Mu, it was only logical that he invited them over!
Ralphy kept his silence.
But Teneria looked up the stage and frowned at him, “Ralphy, so you’ve known that Annabelle had
come back…”
Ralphy could only nod helplessly, “Yes…”
Their father instantly knew his children had purposely kept it a secret from him.
“Why didn’t you tell me she was back?”
“Dad, mum, listen to me… Actually Annabelle had her own reason and wanted to keep it a secret.”
“What reason? We are her parents, why would she even need to hide from us?” Waynie whined.
The moment she spoke, Mu was standing right behind her. He had come in late as well.
And he heard everything!
Annabelle was their daughter?! lightnoveldaily.com.
