Chapter 45

“What did you just say?” Andrew asked, totally confused, trying to confirm if he had heard Annabel correctly or if he had imagined her saying something.

“I said, what do you want me to do,” Annabel blurted out loudly, making Andrew’s ears throb as he hissed at her.

“Just go and wait for me in the living room. I will be there in five,” Andrew coldly replied, turning away from her. Annabel bowed a little before leaving the room.

As Andrew held his chest, feeling his heart beat rapidly, he groaned, questioning, “What’s happening to me?” He took a moment to breathe in and out, attempting to regain composure before making his way to the living room.

In the living room, Annabel sat nervously, fidgeting with her hands as she waited for Andrew.

Annabel, deep in thought, mused about Andrew's intentions. "It's silly of me to think that I would stay in this house without getting into trouble," she blurted out, her hand instinctively meeting her forehead in a display of frustration.
