My Killing President

Chapter 688 Wedding

The next second, Jerry Kuang walked towards Dorie and pulled her to one side.

"Woman, you were mistaken!"

Dorie showed a guileless face, "That's impossible!"

Jerry Kuang gave her an eye roll.

What a dull-witted woman!

"You were mistaken!" He repeated.

And Dorie caught on. She looked at him and giggled, "What are you offering?"

Jerry Kuang, "…"

Should he praise her for her wits or condemn her for her slyness…?

"What do you want?"

"I want the front cover for three days!" Dorie said.

When Jerry Kuang heard that, he looked at her and asked, "Why would you want that? Are you trying

to get famous?"

"Of course not. I am an assistant and have a manager. I need to secure more chances for my artist!"

Dorie said. She knew that Jerry Kuang was in the media line and Hua Yu Group was one of the Titans

in the industry. As long as she could get Su in their news and in addition of Peter's marketing, it was

highly probable that Su could get famous overnight!

"Artist? Who is your artist?"

"Shawn Su!" Dorie said with a sweet smile. Whenever she mentioned Su, she would show a joyous

expression.

When Jerry Kuang looked at her, his lips curled up, "No problem. No problem at all! However, from

hereby onwards, all that you saw wouldn't be me. Do you understand?"

Dorie nodded hurriedly and showed an OK sign, "Roger that!"

And Jerry Kuang let her go.

When the two of them went back, Annabelle looked at them and asked, "How was it? Have the two of

you arrive on a conclusion?"

Dorie replied right away, "I was mistaken!"

The group, "…"

What a rapid twist!

Jerry Kuang simply showed a conceited face. He raised his chin and swaggered to one side.

The group of friends simply smiled and didn't say anything more.

After Covi and Dorie was done with the dress testing, they went to get changed. After that, the group of

friends went to eat.

They continued to discuss and asked about the wedding details. However, Alistair simply stopped them

and gave his word: secret.

They were getting married in one day. However, the man was still keeping the details confidential!

At that time, Dorie looked at Annabelle and asked, "Annabelle, where will it be held?"

When Annabelle heard that question, she chuckled, "Don't ask me. I didn't know anything!"

"You don't know?"

Annabelle nodded. She really didn't know.

At that time, Dorie averted her gaze and looked at Alistair, "You don't have to be so secretive. If it

turned out to be a letdown, Mr. Mu, you will just humiliate yourself!"

Alistair simply continued to eat and he didn't mind at all, "You will know tomorrow!"

Annabelle looked at them and smiled.

She wasn't having too much of an expectation or looking forward to a big surprise. However, she

sincerely appreciated his effort.

After the meal, Alistair and his three friends continued to discuss about the wedding details. Dorie, Covi

and Annabelle were just chatting.

Alistair had blocked booked the entire hotel. They will be going over after the dinner.

When they were having a good time, Annabelle's phone rang. When she saw that number, she tensed

up. After a long time, she picked up her phone and walked to the balcony. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

She answered it and put it by her ear, "Hello…"

"Annabelle…" A charming voice was heard from the phone.

Annabelle was stunned. After that, she smiled, "Song Jing!"

"How are you? Did you miss me?" Song Jing asked.

Annabelle chuckled, "Of course! How are you over that? How is Vanessa?"

"She is fine!" Song Jing said. However, her migraine persisted. But he didn't tell Annabelle that.

"Umm…" Annabelle hesitated for a long while before continuing, "Song Jing, I am getting married!"

Song Jing knew that. He had been checking out the entertainment magazines about their updates.

"I've seen it from the magazines!" Song Jing said softly. The man had known Annabelle for so long and

he was just regretful that they couldn't end up together.

"Are you coming to attend my wedding?"

"Do you want me to?" Song Jing asked back.

"… Of course. You are someone very important in my life, just like my family! I will be happy if you can

come!" Annabelle said with a smile.

At that time, the cheery voice in the room stopped and the two persons in the room looked out at

Annabelle as she was making the call in the balcony.

"Really?" Song Jing asked back indifferently.

"But… Maybe you can't make it already!" Annabelle replied. If he were to take the earliest flight, he

would be reaching only in the noon tomorrow. He would have missed the wedding.

Song Jing was quiet for a while. After that, he said, "Annabelle, I will always be here whenever you

need me!"

Annabelle picked up her phone and lowered her head. She stared at the garden downstairs. After

pondering for a long while, she said, "Song Jing, thank you!"

"Okay, rest earlier!"

"Okay!"

After a simple conversation, they hung up.

Annabelle looked at her phone but she didn't have anything to say. She simply felt a little down casted

for him.

Song Jing was an important person in her life. She must admit that without him, she wouldn't have

ended up being herself. However, things changed when feelings were involved and evolved.

She was so hopeful that Song Jing could treat her the same as how she thought of him. A pure,

platonic friendship.

But that wasn't the case.

Therefore, there was nothing she could do but feel remorseful and sad. The woman was praying for the

best for Song Jing secretly.

Aside from that, she didn't know what else she could do for him.

When Dorie and Covi saw that she stood by the balcony even after hanging up the phone, they went

over and checked on her.

"Are you all right, Annabelle?" Dorie asked.

Annabelle nodded, "I'm fine!"

"Was that Song Jing?"

Annabelle nodded, "Yeah!"

"He came back?"

Annabelle shook her head, "I don't know. He didn't say anything!"

Dorie knew Song Jing's feelings for Annabelle and their history. However, a long time had passed and it

was already an impossibility. There was no point to think more about it.

Dorie hugged her, "All right now, don't overthink. Now that you have walked so far, just keep going.

Song Jing will find his own happiness. That Princess Vanessa was a very nice person, no? He will

definitely find his happiness!" Dorie said.

Annabelle nodded, "Yeah, you are right!"

"Okay now, our beautiful bride. It is your wedding tomorrow and you must maintain a happy mood!"

Covi said.

Annabelle chuckled, "I'm not that fragile, I am really fine!"

"That's more like it, be a beautiful and restful bride. By the way, Annabelle, what you think about my

proposal earlier? I wish to change the gowns over here and here…" Dorie dragged Annabelle away.

In mere minutes, Annabelle had completely forgotten about the call.

After the dinner in the night, Alistair sent someone to bring them to the hotel.

Before leaving, Alistair gave them a lot of reminders. Dorie was annoyed already and she fumed,

"Alistair, that's enough! The two of you are getting married tomorrow and you don't have to be so

sticky!"

Alistair hugged Annabelle and glanced at Dorie, "An unloved person like you will never understand. But

I'll forgive you!"

After saying that, he kissed Annabelle's forehead, "Rest earlier, wait for me to pick you up tomorrow!"

Annabelle smiled and nodded.

Dorie was infuriated and her eyes were wide open. At that time, Covi hurriedly pulled her back, "Chill,

chill!"

"Did you hear him? What did he mean by unloved!"

"Not at all, not at all!" Covi hurriedly coaxed her. Otherwise, there might be a fight breaking out later!

After that, the driver brought the lively group away.

The entire hotel was blocked booked and Dorie and Covi was just exhilarated. They had a great time.

Actually, it wasn't a block booking since the hotel belonged to the Mu family. At most, they simply

stopped their business operation.

When the two women went back to the room, they stood by the balcony excitedly, "There is a

swimming pool downstairs. Hmm, I think we must talk to Alistair tomorrow and get this place to

ourselves for at least two or three days! Let's go swimming!" Dorie said.

"Skinny dipping?"

Dorie looked at her and broke into a laughter, "Of course not!"

"Then why do you want the place to yourself or two or three days?"

"I want to enjoy this feeling of exclusiveness!"

Covi, "…"

All right. If that was the case then she had no comment.

When Annabelle saw that her friends were elated, she sat on the bed and smiled heartily.

It would be her wedding with Alistair tomorrow. She was losing in the track of time, confused whether

they were going too far or too slow. All in all, she felt that everything was unreal.

After wandering around for the past few years, they ended up together again. When Annabelle thought

about that, her lips curled up joyously…

As the friends continued to cheer and have a good time, Annabelle fell asleep quietly.

……

Early the next morning.

The three women was still sleeping but they were awakened by the knocking on the door.

Covi kicked Dorie with her legs, "Go get the door!"

Dorie struggled for some time and climbed up from the bed. After that, she went to open the door

drowsily.

After she opened the tour, she saw a huge group of people outside!

Yes, a huge group!

Men and women. Not only that, they were holding briefcases on their hand.

Dorie was alerted right away.

"May I know who are you guys…?"

"We are the make-up artists and designers president Mu assigned!" The woman that led the group

said.

Dorie nodded in realization. She looked at them and asked, "What time is it now?"

"Five o'clock!"

Dorie looked at them and said, "Please wait a while. The bride is still in bed…" After saying that, she

hurriedly closed the door and went to wake Annabelle and Covi.

They had too much fun last night and they forgot about all these!

After getting disturbed by at Dorie's excited call, Annabelle and Covi climbed out of the bed slowly and

tidied themselves.

When they were finally out, it was already half an hour later. Dorie looked at the team of artists outside

and smiled awkwardly, "So sorry to make you wait. You guys can come in now!"

The make-up artist smiled manneredly and brought her team inside.

Annabelle changed into her wedding gown and started her make-up. After Annabelle was done, it was

Dorie and Covi's turn.

After the hassle, the sky was getting bright already. The sunlight shone into the room and they

welcomed the day with the most wonderful weather.

After the make-ups were done, it was eight o'clock in the morning. At that time, the guests started to

come.

At that time, Covi and Dorie looked at Annabelle and their eyes were twinkling with envy. She had a

diamond wedding gown and stunning make up. The woman was just strikingly beautiful.

"Annabelle, you are really the most beautiful bride I have ever seen!" Covi couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Yeah, and also the most resplendent one!" Dorie added.

When the crowd heard that, they broke into a laughter. However, Dorie maintained a serious look, "I am

serious. Look at all these diamonds on you. I figure you will make a lot of people dizzy with it!"

Alistair was too lavish!

And Covi voiced her opinion as well, "It is a dream for every woman to wear a wedding gown and be

beautiful. If they have the financial capacity, why not make it a dream come true!"

Dorie was agreeable.

When Annabelle heard them chatting about, she simply smiled. The woman turned around and looked

into the mirror. Her reflection looked like a stranger.

Was the person in the mirror really herself?

Previously she was simply trying on the wedding gown. But now that she had completely dressed up as

a bride, she felt overwhelmed by her own appearance.

When she was appreciating her own looks, they heard a sound by the door, "Annabelle!"

When Annabelle heard that, she turned her head back and saw Renee An walking inside. The woman

was wearing a champagne dress and she looked classy and elegant.

"Sister, you are here!" Annabelle cheered.

Renee An walked over. The moment she saw Annabelle, she was awe-struck.

Sumptuous yet elegant, beautiful yet sexy. Annabelle was an embodiment of a mixture of beauties.

They just couldn't avert their gaze from her.

Every woman that saw her couldn't help but feel jealous.

"Annabelle, you are so beautiful today!" Renee An's eyes were gleaming in envy.

Annabelle simply smiled, "I remember telling you the same thing when you married my brother. Every

bride is beautiful!"

Although it was somewhat true, Annabelle's beauty was just dazzling.

Renee An smiled and looked at her, "But you are the most beautiful one of all!"

Annabelle didn't say anymore and smiled back.

"Where is brother?"

"He is outside with dad and mum!"

When they were talking, Waynie and Teneria walked inside, "Annabelle!"

She didn't know why but the moment she saw Waynie and Ralphy walking inside, her nose turned sour.

Probably that was because Annabelle observed Waynie's red eyes and Teneria's heavy heartedness.

That made Annabelle overwhelmed by emotion as well.

"Mum!" Annabelle called out to her with a smile. She tried her best to hold back her tears.

"Dad!" Annabelle looked at Teneria and greeted him.

Teneria nodded and looked away.

Waynie walked over and looked at her. The mother had a contended smile, "My daughter is truly the

most beautiful bride!"

Annabelle smiled and her eyes were misty.

Covi, Dorie and Renee An watched by the side and they were emotional as well.

Renee An could identify with them. She felt the same thing when she was getting married.

"That was all thanks to your genetics!"

Waynie chuckled and looked at her, "Annabelle, after today, you will be an adult. No matter what you

do in the future, make sure to consider and carry yourself wisely. Now that your parents are not by your

side anymore, you must learn to take care of yourself!"

Annabelle nodded, "Mom, don't worry. I will!"

Waynie smiled. There were just too many things that she wanted to say. However, she noticed that she

just didn't know where to start.

At that time, Renee An said from the back, "Mum, Annabelle is marrying and not leaving to another

place. She will be coming home frequently to visit us!"

Although that was true, they just couldn't help but feel sad.

Annabelle nodded, "Yes mum. Don't worry, I am always your daughter. I will make sure to go home

often and accompany you!"

Waynie nodded.

"All right, our baby girl is getting married, why are you crying?"

Waynie hurriedly wiped her tears and she recalled something all of a sudden. She took out a box from

her bag and said, "Annabelle, this is a gift from mum!"

Annabelle looked at the box, "Mom…"

"This is the dowry your father and I prepared for you. Although it isn't anything available, it carries our

sincerity!"

Annabelle opened it slowly and there was an exquisite jade bracelet inside.

"This bracelet comes in a pair. We gave Renee one since she is our daughter in law and the other one

is meant for you. Mum hope that you will always remember that you are the daughter of the Xia family!"

Waynie said.

Annabelle had seen this bracelet before. When she was little, she saw Waynie taking it out before. She

didn't expect that it was meant for them.

Annabelle's eyes welled up in tears and she walked closer to her parents, "Thank you, dad, mom!"

After saying that, she hugged Waynie and Teneria.

"All right now. Annabelle is getting married today and let's not ruin her make up! The guests are all here

and let's go out to serve them!" Annabelle said.

Waynie let go of Annabelle heavy heartedly and nodded, "Go ahead and powder up. I'll go out with

your dad first!"

"Okay!" Annabelle nodded.

And so, Waynie and Teneria walked out.

As Covi and Dorie watched from the side, they couldn't help but feel emotional. Fortunately, Renee An

had experienced it some time ago and she said, "All right, what you are feeling is just temporary. After

the wedding, you are realized that nothing much has changed! Go on and fix your make up!" After

saying that, she held Annabelle's arm and walked her to the mirror.

Covi and Dorie hurriedly added, "Exactly, now you just gotten another family to love you!"

Annabelle smiled. She understood that as well but she just couldn't help it. Now that Waynie and

Teneria and went out, she was fine again.

After Annabelle was done with her make-up, the four women chatted in the room. They were

discussing on how they should cause trouble for Alistair when he comes to take the bride!

As they were discussing, Dorie looked at Annabelle, "Annabelle, you wouldn't mind, right?"

Annabelle gave her a naughty smile, "Do as you please!"

"Muahaha, then the great Dorie shall not hold back!" Dorie laughed heartily. She had already thought

about several ways to punish Alistair.

When she was laughing smugly, they heard a voice from outside, "The bridegroom is here!"

The moment Dorie and Covi heard that, they were completely riled and they hurriedly got up to lock the

door.

They stood by the door and waited for Alistair to take the bride.

Annabelle and Renee An sat on the bed and laughed happily.

After a few minutes, they heard a knocking on the door, "Open the door, we are here for the bride!"

At that time, Renee An went over to help as well, "Who is outside the door?"

"The bridegroom!" Although they answered, it wasn't Alistair that said that, but Jerry Kuang…

"But that doesn't sound like the bridegroom at all!" Covi said.

After that, they heard some discussion outside and Alistair called out, "It's me, darling! I'm here for

you!" Alistair yelled loudly from outside. His voice was charming and alluring.

Although he was yelling loudly, his voice was just as pleasing.

Annabelle sat on the bed. When she heard him, she simply smiled and didn't reply.

"You got it right this time. But, it is not so easy to get the bride!"

"What do we need to do?" The group outside was patient and they had anticipated that.

"Hmmm…" Dorie pondered for a while and said, "Let's start off with a simple exercise. Let's have the

bridegroom and the best man group do a 50 pushups each!"

Push-ups?

When Jerry Kuang heard that, he repeated it with a high-pitched voice. Did he hear them mistakenly?

He looked at Alistair, Sean and Thomas Mo. Did they expect the four great young Masters of the A city

do push-ups in the public?

"What now? Don't feel like it? Then forget it, go back to where you come from!" Dorie said casually.

She was determined to give them a hard one.

Renee An and Covi simply smiled on the side.

Jerry Kuang, "…"

When he saw that none of them was responding, he decided to try out his negotiation skills. He walked

forward and knocked on the door, "Miss Dorie, let's negotiate. We are here for the bride, it doesn't look

appropriate to do push-ups here!"

Dorie was silent.

"How about this, four front covers!"

"No!"

"Five!"

"No way. President Kuang, even if you are offering me ten, I will not agree to it. Just give up!"

"Okay, ten front covers!" Jerry Kuang banged the door and said.

And Dorie was stunned.

She was completely tempted.

When Renee An and Covi saw that she was hesitating, they reminded her, "Don't believe him, he is

playing mind tricks!"
