SWNOVELS Chapter 29 Don't Get Near My Place
Ann's fair face flushed and her heartbeat quickened.
She was not only shy but also nervous and scared.
Ever since she agreed to be with Karl, she had prepared herself for it and knew that this day would come.
She had thought of giving herself to him, but at this moment, she was faintly rejected and afraid...
Hugging Ann, Karl fell down on the sofa with her. His hand that had been holding her shoulder gradually moved down...
Ann found that her heart beat faster and faster, and she couldn't help but think of the man five years ago.
Her hand against Karl's chest was pushed away forcefully.
The phone that Karl casually threw on the sofa suddenly rang.
Ann reminded him, "Your phone...."
Karl frowned and stared at Ann with his longing eyes, "Leave it!"
However, Ann's hand accidentally touched the answer button on the phone.
"Karl."
It was a sweet female voice, and it was somewhat familiar.
Before Ann could hear it clearly, Karl cooled down his face, grabbed the phone in her hand, and went to the balcony.
Ann didn't know what to do but gasped for breath...
After a while, the affection on Karl's face disappeared.
Looking at the struggle and faint panic in Ann's eyes, Karl finally smiled and seemed to apologize.
"Ann, I'm sorry. It's a colleague from my team. She said that there was something wrong with the previous case and wanted me to go back to the company to deal with it now." Ann heaved a sigh of relief in her heart, thinking something might be off.
Just now, that voice...
She shook her head and calmed herself down, "It's OK. Be careful on the way. Don't come back so late. I'll keep the lights in the living room on for you."
Karl had taken good care of her and Nikki for so many years. How could she doubt his faithfulness?
Karl was not back even when she woke up the next day.
She tried to call, but couldn't get through.
After washing up, Ann held Nikki's small hand and went downstairs. Then she saw Carson waving at her on Rolls-Royce Phantom not far away.
"Miss Ann! Nikki!"
Nikki didn't have many playmates. When she saw Carson, she smiled.
Nikki let go of Ann's hand and ran over with her short little legs. Ann was worried that Nikki would fall, so she quickly followed.
As she approached, she noticed that Phillip was sitting in the driver's seat.
Ann frowned. It wasn't a coincidence, was it?
Looking at Ann's polite and distant look, Phillip frowned slightly and turned his head to signal Carson and Jackson in the back seat. Carson, who was opening the car door, did not realize it.
Jackson stared at the teddy bear and Barbie doll which occupied most of his seats and dragged the gift bag out of the car with difficulty. "Miss Ann, these are our gifts for Nikki!"
Ann was surprised and looked at the gifts in the arms of the two little boys. They were a teddy bear and a Barbie doll.
Well, there were also some gadgets that little girls loved.
But...
Ann pointed to a box with a luxury jewelry logo on it and asked, "Is this for Nikki too?"
Carson glanced at it and nodded with a scrunched-up face.
"That's Daddy's gift for Nikki."
Jackson added straightforwardly, "Daddy has a bad taste. Miss Ann, please don't mind."
The two little boys didn't know what to say. It was Daddy who said that he would bring them to buy gifts for Nikki. When they were choosing gifts in the shopping mall, he didn't care at all! Ann looked at Phillip and pursed her lips. Then she raised her hand to show her ring.
"Mr. Phillip, my fiancé might get the wrong idea. Please don't get near my place again!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
