Chapter 648 Fainted
After the meal, Alistair wanted to send them back. However, Nancy frowned all of a sudden, "Mm…"
When Alistair saw her expression, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"I… My stomach hurts…"
"Why is your stomach hurting so suddenly?"
"I don't know, it is so painful…" Nancy said and her face turned paler.
Annabelle looked at her and frowned, "What's wrong?"
Alistair frowned as well and said, "I'll send her to the hospital. Since you are tired, you should go back
and take a rest first. I'll get Coby to pick you up!"
Annabelle nodded, "Okay!"
Therefore, Alistair brought Nancy to the hospital.
Annabelle sat there and watched as they left in a hurry. She drew a deep breath and stood up to go
back.
She didn't call Coby and wanted to take a stroll. She wasn't feeling physically tired but mentally worn
out.
She kept pondering about what Nancy told her.
They knew each other, even familiar to a certain extent. Why didn't Alistair tell her anything?
Didn't they agree to the honest with each other? Didn't they decide not to hide anything from each other
anymore?
As Annabelle thought about that, she got herself a cab back home.
Her mind was in a mess and she kept telling herself, that probably he didn't get the time to tell her yet.
As she thought about that, she lied on the bed and fell asleep.
When she woke up, the sky was dark already. Annabelle looked at her phone and there were a few
missed calls. They were all from Alistair.
After contemplating, Annabelle called him back. But he was engaged in a call and Annabelle hung up.
She felt a little hungry and she got up to prepare a meal. She ate, watched TV after that and didn't think
about anything at all.
After her meal, her phone still didn't ring and Annabelle did not call back. When it was almost ten
o'clock in the night, Annabelle felt sleepy. Therefore, she went to take a shower and got in bed.
She didn't know what happened to her lately and she just felt sleepy all the time. Probably it was
because of Alistair's incident and she hadn't been sleeping well for the past week. She lied down in bed
and fell asleep soon after.
After a long time, she was awakened when she felt someone beside her.
She tried her best to open her eyes while being drowsy. She saw Alistair and flipped over, "You're
back!"
"Yeah!"
Annabelle shut her eyes.
"Why didn't you go back to the Mu family?" Alistair looked at her and asked.
……
There was no reply. Annabelle flipped back and continued to sleep.
When Alistair saw how deep she was sleeping, he didn't want to disturb her. He simply smiled and
kissed her forehead. After that, he got up and went to take a shower.
The next day.
Once Annabelle woke up, she saw Alistair's face right in front of hers.
She was stunned for a while because she didn't even know when Alistair came back. But now that she
saw him lying by her side, she felt a strong sense of security.
At that time, Alistair opened his eyes. The moment he saw Annabelle, his lips curled up lazily, "You're
up?"
Annabelle nodded, "When did you come back?"
"After you fell asleep yesterday. When I saw that you were sleeping so soundly, I didn't want to disturb
you!"
Annabelle nodded. After that, she recalled something all of a sudden and she asked, "By the way, how
was Nancy?"
When Alistair heard Nancy, he sat up on the bed and replied, "She was just not used to the food here.
She is fine."
"That's good." Annabelle nodded and stood up to change.
Alistair looked at Annabelle's back and said, "Annabelle…"
Right after he said that, his phone rang. When he saw his phone on the desk, he frowned. However, he
picked it up and answered it.
"Hello…"
"Okay, got it. I'll be right back!"
After hanging up, he got up from the bed right away.
Annabelle looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
"We have some problem in the company. I need to go over right now!"
Annabelle nodded, "Okay, hurry!"
After Alistair was done cleaning himself up, he looked at Annabelle and said, "I noticed that your face is
pale lately!"
"Really?"
"Get some proper rest and take care of your body. You do not need to be in such a rush to go back to
the company. Just take two days off and rest properly!" Alistair said.
Annabelle nodded, "Okay!"
Alistair smiled at her and went out in a hurry.
When Annabelle looked at his back view, she frowned but she didn't say anything.
He still didn't say anything…
Most of the times, gaps in a relationship were formed like that.
However, Annabelle told herself that her relationship with Alistair had been tested extensively. It
wouldn't crack with just this little problem. Maybe Alistair had his own reasons.
Therefore, she shouldn't be overthinking.
After finishing her breakfast, she went to the company.
In afternoon, Alistair did not find her for lunch. Therefore, Annabelle went to eat with Covi in the
canteen.
At that time, Annabelle heard gossiping from the next table.
"Did you see that just now?"
"See what?"
"A woman came to look for president Mu, a very pretty one at that!"
"Really? But… Why does that matter?"
The person shook his head, "I don't know, they looked very intimate with each other!"
"Intimate… But, isn't president Mu engaged?"
"Who knows… A lot of people saw that today!"
……
Two workers sat on the table and gossiped softly.
However, Annabelle and Covi heard them.
It was difficult to hide such gossips in the company.
Covi turned her head over and looked at Annabelle, "Annabelle, actually I've been hearing that from
many people. Is that true?"
Annabelle simply smiled and didn't answer.
And that made Covi confirmed her thought. That it was real. Annabelle would always answer her like
that.
It really did happen!
"Annabelle, are you all right?"
Annabelle simply looked at her and smiled, "What's the matter?"
"Although I do not know what happened, I believe in president Mu's character!" Covi said.
Annabelle looked at her and smiled, "I know. Don't worry, I am fine!"
"Good to hear that. This is just normal in our company. A little bit of news and they stir up a rumor while
exaggerating it. Let's not listen to rumors like that!" Covi said.
Annabelle knew that Covi was comforting her. At the same time, she knew what Alistair was like.
In this part, she had faith in Alistair.
After the lunch, Annabelle and Covi went upstairs.
For the coming two days, Annabelle did not go back to the Mu House and she simply went back to her
home. Alistair went over to accompany her. However, the man would go out early in the morning and
came back late in the night.
Besides that, Annabelle heard that a woman came to look for Alistair in his office every day.
Therefore, for the coming days, Annabelle had been going to and back from work alone.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Alistair didn't even have the time to eat with her.
On the other side, Dorie and Su invited her for a meal.
After knowing that Alistair was safe, they wanted to invite him along. But the man was so busy that he
couldn't find time.
Annabelle went back to the Xia house for dinner.
Everyone seemed to be busy and only Annabelle was free.
One afternoon, Alistair called and said that he was busy. He asked Coby to send Annabelle home.
After Annabelle came out from the company, Coby was waiting for her. Annabelle did not let him sent
her and she wanted to take a walk.
When she was walking on the road and looking at the bustling crowd, Annabelle felt impassioned,
probably by the series of happenings lately.
At that time, she felt a sudden discomfort. She frowned and held her stomach. She felt pain and a
soreness over there.
At that time, Hua looked outside the car window and saw Annabelle's back view. The man frowned.
"However it may be, we will talk after handling this situation!" Kaleb Hua said.
Hua, "……"
Song Jing frowned and looked at him, "Hua, Hua…" He called him two times before getting a reaction.
"What were you looking at?" Kaleb Hua asked.
At that time, Hua pointed outside the window, "It's Miss Xia…"
When Kaleb Hua heard that, he turned his head over and saw the woman outside the car window. She
was wobbly and bending over. He couldn't see her expression but her gesture suggested that she
wasn't feeling good.
When they drove over, Kaleb Hua frowned and said, "Stop the car!"
The moment they heard him, the driver braked the car.
Kaleb Hua turned his head back and looked outside the window. Annabelle was still standing there and
she didn't move at all.
"Miss Xia seemed to be in pain!" Hua said in the car.
The next second, Kaleb Hua opened the car door and got down the car.
"Brother Kaleb!" Hua called out and followed after him.
Annabelle stood there and frowned deeply. She was pressing on her stomach and she seemed to be in
great discomfort.
"Miss Xia, are you all right? Did anything happen to you?" Kaleb Hua walked towards Annabelle
directly and asked her.
When Annabelle heard his voice, she raised her head. The moment she saw Kaleb Hua, she smiled,
"Mr. Kaleb..."
"How are you feeling? You don't look too well!" Kaleb Hua said.
Annabelle shook her head and forced a smile, "I'm fine…" She shook her head. But the very next
second, she shut her eyes and fainted.
Kaleb Hua was shocked and he hurriedly grabbed her, "Miss Xia…"
However, Annabelle had completely blacked out.
Kaleb Hua had a grim expression, "Hua, to the hospital!"
Hua nodded, "Yes, sir!"
Kaleb Hua carried Annabelle into the car anxiously and rushed her to the hospital…
