Billionaire’s Reborn Sweet Wife

t was true.

Edmond Zhou was Anna Stuat’s only good friend when she was young.

When Anna Stuat was bullied, Edmond Zhou always stood out to protect her.

Unfortunately, there were so many people on the other side that Edmond Zhou couldn’t defeat them, but he still didn’t abandon Anna Stuat. Even if he couldn’t defeat her, he still stood in front of Anna Stuat.

When she was a child, she had been beaten a lot because of Anna Stuat.

If that was the case, it would be no problem for her best friend to come to and ask her for help.

Anna Stuat would try her best.

But

Anna Stuat sighed in her heart.

Perhaps the nature of this good friend had changed, and he might come with bad intentions.

“Oh, I see.” suppressing all the thoughts in her mind, Anna Stuat picked up the teacup beside her, took a sip and covered her expression with the teacup.

After a long time, she put down the teacup and looked normal.

“What are you going to do here?”

She would never ask him how he came to the capital and how he found her.

“I want to find a job here first,” said Edmond Zhou. “I have done many kinds of jobs in the past few years, and I can do all kinds of hard work. But…”

He looked a little embarrassed and hesitant, as if he was struggling in his heart. However, after two seconds of silence, he raised his head and looked at Anna Stuat firmly.

“But I don’t have a place to live here. Can you take me in for the time being?”

Before Anna Stuat could say anything, he added, “I know that the Stuat family is a rich and powerful family, and I may not be able to accept it. But I really just live here for a period of time. When I find a job…”

“You don’t have to say that,” Anna Stuat smiled. “Of course you can.”

Edmond Zhou had planned to be rejected when he heard the first sentence of Anna Stuat, but he didn’t expect that Anna Stuat would agree.

His expression was surprised. “You… You agreed?”

“Of course.”

Unexpectedly, the man hesitated again. “Then your family…”

To be honest, Anna Stuat felt a little sad.

She even knew that she had come back to the Stuat family. How could Anna Stuat believe that Edmond Zhou had come here by accident?

But she still didn’t want to expose it.

“Leave them alone,” said Anna Stuat. “I happen to rent an apartment in the suburb. I’ve paid the rent for more than half a year. You can move in.”

Edmond Zhou hesitated again.

He frowned. After hesitating for a while, he finally said, “will it affect your reputation if I move in?”

“No,” Anna Stuat replied. “I don’t live there now.”

Edmond Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then breathed a great sigh of relief.

Perhaps it was because her conscience had been relieved.

“That’s good, that’s good.” he whispered.

After dinner, Nicola Bery called her again.

” why haven’t you come yet?”

Anna Stuat had already paid the bill. She stood up and walked out of the restaurant. While walking, she turned her head and took a look at Edmond Zhou.

” met a friend and chatted for a while. be here soon.”

Anna Stuat was very clear about her working position in the Andrew group.

In fact, she was just an assistant.

What’s more, she knew that her main task was to cure Philip Andrew’s leg. It was not a big deal for her to work idle.

So she said it openly.

Sure enough, Nicola Bery didn’t say anything about his chatting without going to work. he just asked in confusion, “friend? Is that miss Mike Berly?”

果然!

Sure enough!

Anna Stuat pursed her lips.

As expected, Philip Andrew and Nicola Bery knew their friends very well.

She didn’t have many friends in the capital city. The only friend she could call was Mike Berly.

“No,” said Anna Stuat.

“Really?” Nicola Bery asked in a louder voice.

Then he paused for a while and seemed to leave here. He didn’t know where he was going. After a while, his voice came out again.

” do you have other friends in the capital city?”

Anna Stuat was about to say something perfunctory, but suddenly an idea came to her mind.

“No,” she said softly, “she was one of my childhood friends. I happened to meet in the capital city today.”

On the other side of the phone, Nicola Bery didn’t ask any more questions. After a moment of silence, he only asked Anna Stuat when dhe would come back to the company. Then she hung up the phone.

“Is it your boyfriend?” Edmond Zhou asked tentatively.

“No.” Anna Stuat shook her head.

Edmond Zhou’s face softened, but before it completely softened, Anna Stuat added, “it’s his assistant.”

Edmond Zhou’s expression changed slightly.

Anna Stuat considerately sent Edmond Zhou to take a taxi and wrote down the detailed address to him.

However, the two of them didn’t talk all the way out, and the atmosphere was a little embarrassing.

As for the other side.

After hanging up the phone, Nicola Bery carefully looked at the expression on Philip Andrew’s face.

As soon as he learned that Anna Stuat had met a friend, he immediately reported this matter to Philip Andrew. Then he called Philip Andrew and told Anna Stuat about it beside him.

“President Andrew…”

The long silence in the office finally made Nicola Bery feel a little unbearable. She couldn’t help but say, “then let’s…”

“Investigate a friend of Anna Stuat when she was a child, and also investigate the background of that person. Why did he suddenly come to the capital city?”

Anna Stuat didn’t trust others because of what happened in her previous life. Even if her playmates came to her for many years, she would subconsciously chase after some clues and have doubts.

But Philip Andrew was different.

Since he was the child, he had been living in the background of the Andrew family. He was more sensitive than ordinary people and didn’t believe in coincidence.

Philip Andrew didn’t believe it was a coincidence that his childhood playmate, whom he hadn’t seen for many years, suddenly came to him at such a clever time.

Compared with coincidence, he was more willing to believe that someone did it on purpose.

“Yes, sir.” Nicola Bery nodded but didn’t leave immediately.

Philip Andrew turned to him and asked, “anything else?”

“As a matter of fact, when we sent someone to Liu village to investigate the childhood playmate of Miss Stuat, we had already got some information.”

“Oh?”

“When Miss Stuat was a child, she only had a friend named Edmond Zhou. They grew up together.”

Nicola Bery stressed the words “childhood playmate” on purpose. While speaking, she secretly looked at Philip Andrew.

However, Philip Andrew grabbed her hand and asked, “so?”

Embarrassed, Nicola Bery said, “I’ll investigate it right away.”

After he left the office, Philip Andrew slightly twitched the corners of his mouth.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Childhood playmate?” he snorted.
