The Most Loving Marriage: Don't Be Too Bad, Mr President novel Chapter 74
It was the same villa, nothing much has changed, not even the grounds keeping and decorative gardening outside.
Annabelle put her phone back in her bag. It was Mu’s call just now and she decided to ignore it.
As she stood on the nostalgic doorstep, she could still see a ghost of her past self, always standing on the exact same spot and gaze into the distance, helpless and hopelessly searching for solace. Now, Annabelle was high spirited, happy and brimming in striking vibrant.
Two years ago, Annabelle left in bitterness. She had countless thoughts and fantasies about getting square with them. However now, she realized that she had long dropped this burden and found peace.
Time was the greater healer, it healed all wounds and taught her how to live with the scars.
Annabelle exhaled in relief, casting away the shadow of her unpleasant past.
She pressed on the doorbell and soon after, the door was opened.
“Aunty!” She greeted cheerfully.
Mrs. Lee was surprised at her visit.
“Young… Annabelle!” She beamed in excitement, “What brings you here!?”
“Of course it’s to visit you!”
“Quick, come on in!”
Mrs. Lee had been here over a decade. The Mu family treated her with respect and entrusted her to take care of the rebellious Mu.
And even a spoiled brat like Mu adored this kind woman dearly.
“Mrs. Lee, these are for you!”
“Why bother? Come on in!”
Mrs. Lee had kept the house spotless, as usual. Annabelle felt a welcoming familiarity, even after two years, everything remained the same. The people, the furniture, the pots of fresh flowers.
“Aunty, you’ve always managed to make this house feel like home!” Annabelle smiled earnestly.
“Haha, go sit down.
I’ll get you some water.”
“It’s fine aunty, thanks,” Annabelle went to hold her arms and gently brought her to the couch, “I’m here to visit you, and while I’m at it might as well fill you in for the past two years!”
Mrs. Lee nodded and sat down. She was always a sweet-tempered and good listener.
And Annabelle began to tell her tale.
Mrs. Lee was surprised, but she was at the same time, happy at how things turned out for Annabelle. Two years ago it was a tragedy for the young girl. But life always had a bigger plan. The two youngsters met and got tangled again.
“So that’s why… I was shocked to see you in Yun Rui!”
“Aunty, thanks for keeping the secret for me. I am grateful!”
If it wasn’t for her, Mu could’ve found out two years ago.
Mrs. Lee relaxed her shoulder and smiled, “Life is what happens to us while we are making plans, and what’s meant to be will always find a way…”
Two years ago, even if she had given the young master a heads-up, he wouldn’t be able to track her down. Now, even if she had kept her lips sealed, the two ended up tangled together anyway! Isn’t that fate’s hand at play?
Annabelle knew her longing. She just laughed it off, “That’s why, aunty you need to continue to keep this secret!”
Mrs. Lee nodded, “Alright I will. But you should always be prepared!”
“Yeah… I will!”
Annabelle made up her mind, she will leave before Mu had the chance to find out.
Little did she know, life is a play and she was unrehearsed…
After that, Annabelle stayed back for a short while and left. She wanted to spend more time with Mrs. Lee but she was afraid to bump into Mu.lightnoveldaily.com.
