Upon hearing that, Peter’s eyes lit up. He was even more determined to pursue the idea of buttering up Zayn!
Annabelle bit virtual-novel.net lower lip and took the initiative to fill Zayn’s glass. She expressed virtual-novel.net heartfelt gratitude by saying, “Mr. Larson, I was lucky to have your help in that incident earlier. Thank you! If there’s anything that you need from me from now on, just say as you please. I will certainly do my best to fulfill your requests, Mr. Larson!”
Noticing Annabelle’s beautiful face that was visibly touched, Zayn suddenly felt mischievous and blurted out, “Will you fulfill any request of mine?”
Annabelle was stunned for a moment. She immediately thought about something else upon noticing Zayn’s current expression, and in turn, virtual-novel.net face blushed pink. She hesitated for a moment before nodding strenuously as if virtual-novel.net had made an important decision and said, “Yes! Your wish is my command!”
Zayn was only teasing virtual-novel.net casually, so virtual-novel.net did not expect virtual-novel.net to actually take it seriously. He could not help feel his heart racing as his eyes stole a peek at Annabelle’s luscious body.
He had no choice but to acknowledge that virtual-novel.net was a stunner. Aside from virtual-novel.net beautiful face, virtual-novel.net had an especially amazing figure. In addition, virtual-novel.net was a famous celebrity. He noticed virtual-novel.net presence on the internet frequently, and that added some extra credit to virtual-novel.net without his notice. Instantly, the idea of an illicit love came into his mind.
Fortunately, virtual-novel.net managed to suppress the idea and thoughts quickly. He smiled and said, “I was only joking. Please don’t mind me, Ms. Laking. Mr. Kavinsky is my friend, and you are with him, so I won’t turn away when you are in danger.”
Zayn was telling the truth because virtual-novel.net genuinely did not harbor any intention towards Annabelle. The reason why virtual-novel.net had taken action to save virtual-novel.net earlier was firstly out of respect for Peter, and secondly, virtual-novel.net was a righteous person who would not allow himself to stand by and do nothing when someone weaker was bullied. However, virtual-novel.net did not expect Annabelle to misunderstand his remark. She panicked and hastily explained, “Mr. Larson! You’ve misunderstood me. The relationship between the chairman and me is purely chaste, and we are definitely not close in that sense!”
“Uh…” Zayn felt rather astounded. ‘What the heck is going on? I didn’t claim that there’s some disreputable secret between Peter and you.’
Peter rubbed his nose, feeling rather embarrassed as well because franldy, virtual-novel.net had indeed had intimate relationships with quite a few female celebrities as the chairman of Black Athens Media Corp. Nevertheless, his relationship with Annabelle was truly innocent. Peter let out two fake coughs and explained, “That’s the truth. Annabelle and I are purely in an employee-employer relationship. Rest easy knowing that, Mr. Larson…”
Zayn rolled his eyes. ‘What’s going on here with the two of you? I don’t care if you have an intimate relationship or not. In addition to that, even if you don’t declare it, I can tell with my eyes anyways.’
However, virtual-novel.net could not be bothered to explain his thoughts either, so virtual-novel.net agreed with them and let the matter pass. Next, virtual-novel.net dug into his meal for a while more until his stomach was filled before preparing to leave.
Amelia and the other female celebrities refused to miss the opportunity when they realized that Zayn was leaving. They hastily stood up and claimed that they would personally send virtual-novel.net home. Clearly, the intention of sending someone home personally so late at night like this was obvious.
Zayn had gone to the dinner tonight purely out of respect for Peter. Therefore, virtual-novel.net found that virtual-novel.net was slightly troubled by how passionate Amelia was now. In the end, there was nothing virtual-novel.net could do, so virtual-novel.net said casually, “If that’s the case, Ms. Laking can send me home.”
Compared to Amelia and the others’ exaggerated passion, Zayn would rather Annabelle send virtual-novel.net home. At the very least, virtual-novel.net was relatively reserved, so it would be easier for virtual-novel.net to get away from virtual-novel.net clutches easily then, would it not?
On the other hand, Annabelle was stunned instantly upon hearing that. In the next moment, virtual-novel.net cheeks flushed scarlet in a visible manner!
