209: Chapter 210 Dumber Than His Mom 209: Chapter 210 Dumber Than His Mom These days, Annie had been seeking information about Huangfu Jue, trying every ans to find an opportunity to please him and get close.
However, before she could achieve this, Anna had gone and done such a thing.
If that man found out, the consequences would be simply unthinkable.
What should be done?
Annie hugged her arms, lost in thought.
Buzz!
Jack’s phone suddenly began vibrating in his hand.
All three of them were startled by the phone’s vibration, Jack almost dropped it to the floor.
Once he saw the number, he cald down and answered the call.
“Hello?!
Okay…
I understand, yes…
Yes, sir.”
After hanging up, Jack’s lips were tightly pursed as he lifted his face.
“He…
he must know by now!”
Both won’s hearts skipped a beat.
“What happened?” Annie asked.
Jack’s voice trembled, “We just got news from ho, F Country has refused our earlier proposed cooperation terms, it was…
it was a direct order from Huangfu Jue.”
F Country had lately been trying hard to curry favor with A Country, aiming to collaborate and, to gain A Country’s support, F Country had been making various concessions.
They had finally managed to make A Country budge and reveal that they were considering the offer.
Now, out of the blue, the other party had rejected their proposal, and the cause and effect were obvious.
“This…” Anna swallowed nervously, her voice dry as she spoke, “It shouldn’t be because of this reason, right?
He…
he can’t possibly change such a major decision just for an unrelated child, can he?”
“Oh!” Annie bit her lip, “You’re even dumber than I thought.
We can’t keep hiding this; I must tell my brother-in-law and my father!”
Turning around, Annie was about to head upstairs.
“Annie, don’t!” Anna chased after her, grabbing her arm, “If father finds out, he will kill !”
Their father, a military man, was always quick-tempered.
Dissatisfied for not having a son, he had always been discontented with his two daughters.
Annie, smart and capable, had won their father’s favor, while Anna was his least favorite.
If their father found out about this, there was no way he would let her off.
Grasping her sister’s arm, Anna pleaded with a tremulous voice, “Annie, please…
help your sister.
I’ll do anything you ask, just…
just as long as you help .”
“What are you two doing?”
In the living room, Ambassador Rod’s demanding voice rang out, and several people turned their faces all at once, panic-stricken in their eyes.
Jack stamred, “We were just…”
“I know!” Jerry, the plump boy, poked his face out from the stairwell, unceremoniously exposing Anna and the others, “They were talking secrets just now and said you mustn’t find out.”
“Shut up!”
Annie felt an urge to slap him flying, sure enough, the son of her foolish sister, dumber even than his mother.
“What secret?!” Rod watched Anna, frowning as he inquired.
“I…” Anna looked at Annie, bit her lip, and finally spoke the truth, “I…
I had soone…
soone attack Gan Tang, Huangfu Jue seems to…
seems to know!
Rod…” she lifted her face, “you…
you have to think of sothing fast!”
Slap!
A slap exploded heavily on Anna’s face, followed by Rod giving his wife a hard push, throwing her to the ground.
“Damn fool, why don’t you just die!”
In the living room, the phone rang, Jack hurried over to answer it, listening for a mont before turning to Rod.
“Sir, it’s for you.”
