As expected, Steven frowned.
Annie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, he still cared about her.
Since now he had known that she was wronged, he would certainly help her take revenge!
However, to her surprise, Steven only said in a low voice, “You’d better stay away from her in the future!”
Annie was stunned and widened her eyes in disbelief.
She looked at Steven in disbelief as if she had heard something completely impossible. “What… What did you say?”
Steven said impatiently.
“Every time you two meet, you will quarrel with each other like foes of life. It seems that she is unreasonable, but actually, it’s always you who took the initiative to provoke the fighting. Annie, it’s already a mistake for us two to be together, so definitely she hates you for that. Why do you still take the initiative to provoke her and get yourself annoyed?”
Annie was stupefied.
She looked at the man in front of her and couldn’t believe what he had said just now.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
“Steven, do you think… Do you think I have always made trouble for my sister on purpose?”
Steven frowned.
Then he explained helplessly, “I didn’t mean that. I just asked you to keep a distance from her.”
“How can I keep a distance from her? Do you mean that I shouldn’t go anywhere she goes in the future? Steven, how could you say something like that? I know I should say sorry to her, but I’ve tried my best to make it up. What else do you want me to do?”
“Will it satisfy both of you if I go to hell now? If so, why did you even bother to come to me before? Since you love her so much, wasn’t it better for you to be with her?”
Annie broke down with tears.
Steven’s face changed instantly.
He covered her mouth in a hurry and looked around. Then he lowered his voice and said anxiously, “Keep it down!”
Annie just cried, feeling so wronged that she couldn’t even speak.
Steven also could not help feeling sorry, when he saw his girl crying so poorly.
He held her in his arms and comforted her, “I didn’t mean that. How could I love her? I only love you, and nobody else. I said that just because I don’t want you to have any conflict with her ever again.”
“You should know how kind you are. If you have a conflict with her, you will always be the one who suffers. Then I will also be worried. Do you understand this?”
Annie cried, “I think you are just worried about her!”
“Of course not! Nonsense!”
Steven coaxed softly, “Of course I only love you. After all, you are not only my fiancee, but also the mother of my child.”
As he spoke, he gently rested his hand on her belly.
Annie didn’t really want to break up with him. After being comforted by his gentle words, she knew better than to continue the fuss.
However, the jealousy and anger at the bottom of her heart were like a volcano awakened, and she could no longer control it.
Why would just everyone like Zoe?
She had already broken up with Steven, but she still occupied an important place in this man’s world.
And she had worked so hard herself, why couldn’t she get anything at all?
But then again, she felt fortunate.
That woman was stupid enough to be so arrogant.
After she got the real manuscript, no matter how hard Zoe tried to defend herself tonight, she couldn’t get away with the crime of theft and framing!
At the thought of this, Annie took a deep breath and suppressed the surging hatred in her eyes.
In the meanwhile, at the guest room department on the twelfth floor, Marie sneaked out of the elevator and found room No. 1201.
She had just asked the receptionist for Zoe’s room.
And Annie had asked someone to get the room card for Marie. All Marie needed to do was to go in and steal the manuscript from the laptop.
Thinking of this, Marie put the room card on the door.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
With a light “beep”, the door opened.
She was delighted and looked around to make sure that no one would ever see her. Then she flashed in.
It was pitch dark inside.
Marie didn’t dare to turn on the light. She turned on her flashlight instead, fumbled for the laptop and turned it on.
It took a while to turn on the laptop. She waited patiently, but suddenly she heard a very light noise from behind.
Startled, Marie turned around subconsciously and shouted, “Who is it?”
But there was nothing in the dark room.
Her face changed slightly, her heart somehow pounding. She began to have a feeling of uneasiness.
But now that she had started the plan, there was no turning back for her. Since she had come, she couldn’t just leave with nothing. She must get the thing she’s here fore.
Thinking of this, Marie took a deep breath and
encouraged herself to continue looking for the manuscript on the laptop.
The laptop that Zoe brought here was the one she usually used at home.
There were not many documents in it. Soon, Marie found something that looked similar to a hand-painted design drawing.
She was so surprised that she quickly took out the USB drive and copied the document into it.
Unexpectedly, just at this moment.
With a “clap” sound, all of a sudden, the lights in the room were all turned on.
A cold voice of a woman came from behind.
“What are you doing?”
Marie was almost scared out of her wits. When she turned around, she saw a young woman standing in the doorway. It was not Zoe, but Victoria!
“Why … Why are you here?”
Victoria gave a cold sneer.
“This is my room, so why do you think I am here?”
“Your room? Isn’t it…”
She suddenly opened her eyes wide and realized something wrong. She looked at Victoria in disbelief.
“You set me up!”
“Humph! It’s too late to know it now. ”
Seeing that the situation was not as expected, Marie hurriedly jumped to her feet for the door.
However, as soon as she ran to the door, she was stopped by several security guards who had already ambushed around.
Victoria looked at her coldly and then smiled.
“Well, never try to run again. Since I knew you would come here, definitely I’ve prepared well! Just stop and surrender!”
In the spinning hall on the second floor.
The banquet hall was still lively and peaceful.
To Zoe’s surprise, besides the big shots from Julio, Amy, her favorite fashion designer, also came to the party today.
It was said that Amy was a friend of the principal’s granddaughter. She originally came to Ambario for a trip. Coincidentally, the school anniversary was held when she was here, so she was invited by the principal’s granddaughter.
Zoe was undoubtedly excited to learn about such good news.
Unfortunately, since Amy entered the hall, she had been surrounded by all kinds of people who
wanted to make friends with her. Natalia wanted to say hello to her, but there wasn’t even a chance for her.
Just then, a waiter came downstairs in a hurry.
He walked quickly to the manager and said something. The manager’s face changed and left in a hurry.
Zoe smiled silently.
She put down the glass in her hand and walked towards the elevator.
“Zoe.”
Annie’s voice came from behind.
“The party is not over yet. Why are you leaving now?”
Zoe looked back at her with a faint smile.
“I’m tired. I want to go back to have a rest in my room. Is there anything wrong?”
Annie forced a smile.
“No, it’s still too early. There are many celebrities here tonight. Don’t you want to stay a little longer?”
