My Killing President

Kaleb Hua sat face-to-face with Alistair Mu.

There was a pot of high-quality Pu'er in between them.

Kaleb Hua looked at him, "President Mu, long time no see. May I know why are you looking for me?"

As the man asked, he lifted his cup of tea and enjoyed its scent.

Alistair Mu was more down to earth compared to last time. He lifted his cup and took a sip as well, "Of course there is something important!"

The only thing he didn't change after the three months was his straightforwardness.

Kaleb Hua lowered his cup, "Let's hear it!"

Alistair Mu looked at him and his gaze was serene. After contemplating for a while, he said, "Have you heard anything from her?"

Kaleb Hua smiled. The man had no doubt that Alistair Mu wanted to ask him that.

He shook his head, "You should know that I am also sending men to look for her!"

That was true.

Countless people were looking for her.

Alistair Mu was just hopeful that the others could find her. Even just the tiniest clue or news would do. But after three months, he got nothing. Alistair Mu had exhausted all of his resources. And now the man realized how big the world was. He just couldn't find one person...

"Maybe you are looking for her because you want to hide the fact that you have already found her!" Alistair Mu said.

Kaleb Hua simply smiled and looked back at him, "Alistair, what if she just didn't want to be found by you? Why can't you just give her that freedom?"

Alistair Mu sneered, "I might not be able to be so confident in other matters. But I know that she misses me very much and she wanted to get back to my side as well!"

Kaleb Hua just didn't know what to comment. Should he diss him for his narcissism?

"If that's the case, why did she even leave you in the first place?"

"It was because of... Love." When he said that, he could feel Annabelle Xia's helplessness and powerlessness.

The man had always tried to be considerate and not put her in difficult positions. But he had never tried to fully understand her vex and anguish.

Now that he thought about that, her leaving had given them enough time to calm down. And even their love was beautifully preserved. Kaleb Hua smiled, "Are you sure?"

At that time, Alistair Mu raised his head and looked at him, "If you really loved one person, you will be able to understand it!"

When Kaleb Hua heard that, the smile on his face tensed up.

The man couldn't help but recalled Dawson Xiao.

Back then he had chased her away for her own good. Although his situation wasn't the same with Alistair Mu and Annabelle Xia, he could understand that people could just do unbelievable things for love. It might look cruel for others but only those involved knew that it was the best solution.

"Alistair Mu, the only thing I could say is if she really want you to find her, you will be able to!"

That was the only thing Kaleb Hua could say.

Alistair Mu wasn't forceful and he nodded.

"If that's the case, I shall leave first!"

"I want to know why you are looking for me!" Right before Alistair Mu wanted to leave, Kaleb Hua said. When the man heard that, he sat back down.

"To have someone that resembled Annabelle Xia, it might be just a coincidence. And you investigating my father might be another coincidence. But you have the same blood type as Annabelle Xia and you are willing to go to the distance for her. When all of those were added together, it is impossible to be just coincidences..."

Kaleb Hua looked at him and squinted his eyes. However, the man remained calm. He knew that Alistair Mu was sharp witted and Kaleb Hua wasn't surprised that he could come up with that guess, "When did you know about that?"

"Since the last time you desperately did a blood transfusion for her. I started to suspect back then!"

Only family could go that far for each other.

Even if Kaleb Hua was most grateful to Annabelle Xia for saving his life, Alistair Mu didn't believe that he would risk his life for Annabelle Xia.

There was only one reason...

He just couldn't come up with any other logical explanation.

Kaleb Hua continued to drink his tea, "I hadn't expected you to be the first one to know. Since you have learnt about it, why didn't you look for me?"

"I did not have a need previously. And I believe that you have your own reason to not step forward. But now, I just can't think of anything else anymore!" Kaleb Hua nodded, "You are right. I am her father!"

"And the woman that you are looking for should be her mother, right?"

Kaleb Hua looked at him and his eyes widened with shock and confusion.

When Alistair Mu saw that, he smiled indifferently, "Ever since you investigated my father, he had told me everything. My father had indeed to care of her back then!"

When Kaleb Hua heard the news about Dawson Xiao, he was roused.

After all these years, it was the first time he heard anyone mentioning about the woman.

"Then where is she now?"

"According to my father, she left after a short while. As for her whereabouts, he doesn't know either. There was one day that he received a sudden call from her, asking him to take care of Annabelle. The mother was the one that left her outside the Xia's doorsteps!" When Alistair Mu said that, his lips curled up helplessly. That was also another reason why the father insisted for him to marry Annabelle Xia.

The Xia Family needed to finance the company and the Mu family was able to provide that. Actually, the Mu family had no need to do that at all but Mu Zhen was persistent. Now, the son understood everything.

However, he was grateful that his father made that decision.

Getting him to marry Annabelle Xia.

Although they wasted two years, that was because they didn't get to know each other and develop feelings. Fortunately, they met again and fell in love.

When Kaleb Hua heard what Alistair Mu said, he lowered his gaze in disappointment.

The man thought that he finally gain new information. However, he didn't expect that it was just another let down.

However, he had gotten used to it after all these years.

"I was the one that wronged them both!" Whenever Kaleb Hua thought about that, he would be guilt ridden.

"Back then, I was obsessed with power. You should know my past and I just couldn't withdraw myself. At that time, I have too many enemies and I was afraid that they would exact revenge to my family. I had no choice but to force her to leave me. However, I hadn't thought that she was pregnant back then..."

"If you had known it, would you do the same?" Alistair Mu looked at him and asked. Although the man wasn't in the field, he personally knew a lot of people from the mobsters and he knew how complicated it was. The man had always stayed alert to not get involved in the muddy pool.

When Kaleb Hua heard that, he raised his head and looked at Alistair Mu shockingly.

The man hadn't thought about that problem at all. But now that he gave it a careful thought, he nodded, "I will. But that was all for the sake to let them have a better life!"

The man wanted to pull out from the mobsters but it was just impossible unless he dies. However, even if that was the case, his enemies might not let his family go. Therefore, he had no choice but to press on!

If, and just if he could go back in time, he would rather live a simple and honest life with his loved ones!

However, there are no 'If's...

Alistair Mu's question gave him a change of mind. Kaleb Hua wasn't bearing such great guilt after that.

Because he knew that even if he had known about the pregnancy, he would have done the same.

When Alistair Mu heard him, he smiled agreeably.

That was expected from a man. If it was possible, he would give the best for the woman he loves. However, not just everyone could have second chances.

Alistair Mu was grateful that he was the fortunate one. They didn't even know Dawson Xiao's whereabouts, or even if she was still alive.

However, Annabelle Xia was just waiting around the corner for him.

At the very least, he still had a chance...

"If I managed to find Annabelle, I will help you to look for Dawson Xiao!" Alistair Mu said.

When Kaleb Hua heard that, he raised his gaze and looked at Alistair Mu. After a flash of elation, he calmed himself down.

The man was too cunning.

He was maneuvering him.

So had he really known about Annabelle Xia's news or whereabouts, he would definitely tell Alistair Mu so after the man found Annabelle Xia, Alistair Mu would help him to find Dawson Xiao. Alistair Mu was clever and one would easily get tricked by him if they aren't careful.

But Kaleb Hua wasn't inferior as well. The man simply smiled, "Then I wish you all the best in finding Annabelle!"

"I will!" After saying that, Alistair Mu got up and looked at him, "If there isn't anything else, I shall leave now!" Kaleb Hua nodded.

And Alistair Mu walked away.

Kaleb Hua enjoyed his tea while looking at the direction Alistair Mu left. The man was satisfied with the young man.

Although Alistair Mu had always do things differently, he was undeniably outstanding in every way. And now, the man seemed to be more down to earth and humbled.

If Annabelle were to go back to his side... She would be happier.

As the father thought about that, his lips curled up in gentleness...

One year later.

Yun Rui's office.

Jack walked into the office dispiritedly, "President Mu..."

"How was it?"

Jack shook his head, "The Americans from SL said our designing concept was different from what he wanted... And he said hopefully we can work together next time!"

When Alistair Mu heard that, he frowned.

"Then, have they decided on a partner?"

Jack shook his head, "They still haven't make the decision yet!"

"So that means he still didn't get any design work that satisfies him and he is still considering!"

"That's right!"

"Tell that to the design department and get them to come up with a new design by the end of the week. Whoever secures the contract with SL will get a one hundred thousand bonus this year end!" One hundred thousand!

Jack gasped. But he knew that the design department would just be accelerated. The assistant nodded, "Okay, I understand. I will tell them right away!"

"Okay!"

"By the way... Do you have any news?" Alistair Mu asked.

Jack knew what he wanted to ask. All these while, Alistair Mu would ask him at least once every single day. But the man hadn't gotten any news the president wanted to hear. Jack shook his head.

Alistair Mu nodded, "Okay, I understand. You may go back to work!"

Jack nodded and went out the office.

Alistair Mu stood up and walked towards his window slowly. He looked outside but all he saw was the woman in his mind.

Annabelle Xia, it had been one year. How long do you plan to hide from me?☐☐
