CEO's Revengeful Queen novel Chapter 113

Amidst the roar of the crowd, Carla said pitifully, "Since everyone has said so, to be honest, Caleb has always mentioned to me about cancelling the engagement. But I believed that my sister could change, so I kept comforting him, hoping that he would not mention it to her."  

"Sister, I know you love Caleb very much. You will definitely be devastated if he wants to cancel the engagement... But you haven't changed even though Caleb has given you so many chances time and time again. This time, Caleb has made up his mind, so I have to support him. If you had not gone too far, Caleb would not have done this..."

As she spoke, she pathetically handed the microphone to Caleb with a troubled and helpless expression on her face. 

Annetta watched Carla indifferently, marvelling at her acting skills. She even wanted to laugh.  

When Caleb took the microphone from Carla, the crowd chanted even louder——

"Mr. Taylor, cancel your engagement with Annetta White!"

"Mr. Taylor, cancel your engagement with Annetta White!"

"Mr. Taylor, cancel your engagement with Annetta White!"

The roar from the crowd was so loud that the hotel waiters standing outside the door came in to check, wondering what the commotion was. 

Caleb took the microphone and paused for a moment before he said, "Everyone, please calm down. I do want to cancel my engagement with Annetta White."

As soon as Caleb finished speaking, the whole banquet hall was immediately filled with sighs. Carla still looked troubled, but she was secretly overjoyed. She looked towards Annetta, imagining how furious she must be. 

"Annetta White, did you really think that you could get the better of me? Aren't you completely besotted with Caleb? Let's see how arrogant you can be when Caleb abandons you in front of everyone!" Carla thought smugly. 

"I support Mr. Taylor and Carla together! Mr. Taylor and Carla are a good match!"

The crowd began to babble again. 

Just then, Annetta, who had remained motionless the entire time, suddenly stood up.

The eyes of everyone in the banquet hall immediately focused on her. She bypassed the crowd and walked onto the stage.

When Cicely saw Annetta coming onto the stage, she immediately rushed up and stood in front of her daughter. "Annetta White, don't you dare! Carla is your sister! Are you really going to hit her in front of so many people?"

Carla stood where she was and watched as Annetta rushed towards her. 

She knew that this psychopath would lose control as long as it involved Caleb. 

She wanted Annetta to do something drastically crazy and make more people despise her. 

"Sister, I'm sorry... Although I know that I did something wrong, Caleb and I really love each other." Carla pretended to be the victim again. To aggravate Annetta further, she said, "Sister, Caleb doesn't love you. Can't you let him go? If you want to vent your anger, you can scold or hit me! Don't blame him!" 

Annetta said nothing. She walked towards Carla until she stood in front of Cicely. Hunk rushed up and scolded, "Annetta White, what do you think you're doing?! Get off the stage!" 

Annetta didn't move. Under Cicely's vigilant gaze, she swiftly reached out her hand.

"Annetta is going to hit us! Help!"

Annetta calmly took the silver gem necklace from Carla's neck while both mother and daughter were shrieking. 

She looked at the necklace in her hand and confirmed that it was indeed her mother's. Then she glared at Cicely and her daughter coldly before turning to leave. 

"Stop right there!" Cicely stopped her and cried to Hunk, "Honey, this is the birthday present you asked me to give to Carla for her 18th birthday! Does Annetta want to snatch even this from her?!"
