My Killing President

Chapter 616 Awake

In the morning.

After Dorie woke up, it was almost 10 o’clock.

She was having a migraine from hangover and she couldn’t remember how she fell asleep. But as she

woke up, she realized that Annabelle had gone home.

Dorie sat up from the couch and scratched her bed hair. She got up to look for something to eat. The

woman had drunk too many bottles of beer empty stomach and now she was feeling a mild gastric

pain.

At that time, the doorbell rang.

Dorie was curious, who would come at such a time?

Not only that, she wouldn’t have any visitors normally!

As she thought about that, she didn’t even clean herself up and went to open the door.

The moment Dorie saw the person standing outside, she was stunned. After that, her eyebrows

furrowed, "What are you doing here?"

The man outside was none other than Su.

When he saw the news about Ralphy’s engagement yesterday, he knew that Dorie would be sad.

Therefore, he got her address from Annabelle and came over.

When he saw Dorie’s ‘presentation’, his eyes lit up a little. After that, he averted his gaze and said,

"Breakfast delivery!"

When Dorie looked at the breakfast he was holding, she was even more disturbed, "Why? You want to

repay me?"

Su remained quiet.

"Not staying with your Yoi now?"

Su continued to remain quiet.

When she saw that he wasn’t speaking, she lit up in anger, "Go deliver it to your Yoi!" After saying that,

she slammed the door.

And Su was being rejected outside the door.

Dorie didn’t know why, but when she saw that he kept quiet, she got angry. An unnamed anger!

The man knew that Yoi had tricked him and used him, yet he went back to her stupidly!

If that was the case, just let him be then!

However, why was she feeling such a discomfort in her heart?

At that time, the doorbell rang again. Dorie frowned and she was even more enraged. She decided to

give him an earful. She turned around and opened the door, "You…"

But there was no one outside.

Dorie was stunned. He left?

She lowered her gaze and looked at the breakfast on the floor. He left their food here and left?

Dorie had no place to vent her anger. She took up the plastic bag and wanted to throw it away. But on

second thought, she took it back in.

"I am starving!" Dorie said. She took it back to her room and sat down to eat.

She had taken care of him for such a long time, it is only justifiable that she enjoys the meal from him in

return. Therefore, Dorie sat down and started to eat.

She sat down without caring for her image. As she was eating, she came to a sudden realization. She

looked at her mini hot pants and singlets and pondered to herself… Did she just appear like this in front

of Su?

As she was eating, she was absent-minded. She was chewing and lost in thought.

In the end, she scratched her hair in vex. Forget it, if he saw anything then just let it be!

She had seen everything of his anyway!

As she thought about that, she felt more at ease and continued to eat.

She thought that that was it. However, she didn’t think that the second day, the third, the fourth, and

every day after that, her doorbell would ring. After opening the door, there was breakfast outside.

And the food was different every day.

Dorie knew that it was Su that delivered them.

Dorie ate her breakfast happily for the first few days and her anger subsided. After a few days, she

decided to have a talk with Su. However, she noticed that she couldn’t find him anywhere.

Whenever the doorbell rang, she would open the door right away, but she just couldn't see Su!

She frowned. What was that Su thinking!?

And finally, there was one morning that Dorie decided to camp on him!

Went it was almost time for breakfast, she camped by the door and waited for Su.

She looked at the lift through the peephole. When she saw someone approaching, she opened the

door right away.

The moment she saw the person outside the door, she was stunned.

And it was obvious that the man was stunned as well.

"Who are you?" Dorie looked at the man and asked.

"I… I am here to deliver breakfast!"

"I don’t know you!"

"I don’t know you either!" The man answered right away.

Dorie, "Then why are you delivering breakfast to me if you don’t know me? Are you trying to poison

me?"

"No, no… A man told me to deliver breakfast you every day at this hour, I stay upstairs…" That man

said.

As he mentioned that, Dorie felt that he looked familiar.

Of course, she knew who was the man that asked for his service.

"Where is he?"

"I don’t know. He gave me money for breakfast for the next two months and asked me to deliver it

every day on time!"

Dorie, "……"

So this stranger was the one that made the delivery every day?

Dorie felt a little dejected.

At that time, the man said, "Miss, your boyfriend is treating you so well, don’t be angry at him

anymore!"

Boyfriend?

Dorie blinked her eyes as she looked at him after sometime, she realized that he was referring to Su.

"You misunderstand, he isn’t my boyfriend!"

"He isn’t…?" That man asked.

Dorie was reluctant to continue the conversation, "Give me the food, and you can go back now!"

"Oh ok!" After answering, he passed the breakfast to Dorie.

Dorie took it over and went back to her room.

When she put their breakfast on the table, she felt that she wasn’t in the mood to eat anymore.

She contemplated for a while and decided to call Su. However, his phone was off.

She continued to call him but she just couldn’t get through…

And so, for the coming two days, she kept trying but the man’s phone was always off.

Dorie got anxious. The breakfasts were always delivered on time but his phone would never get

through!

What was he trying to do?!

Dorie have no other way but to look for Su!

Dorie sat in her car in the carpark of his apartment for a long time. After struggling for some time, she

finally made up her mind to go look for him!

After she mustered her courage and went out, she noticed that the door was opened and there were

many people inside.

Dorie walked inside and saw that the place was empty.

"May I ask what happened here?"

"Umm, you are…?"

"Oh, I am here to look for my friend!"

"You mean the previous owner, right?"

Dorie nodded, "Yes!"

"He moved away!"

"He moved?" Dorie stared at him in disbelief. As she looked at the men that were moving boxes out

from inside, she frowned, "Do you know where he moved to?"

That man smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, I don’t know about that!"

Dorie was stunned as she stood there.

She hadn’t thought that this would happen!

As she looked at the man, she nodded absentmindedly, "Okay… got it, thank you!"

"You are most welcome!"

After Dorie walked out from the place, she felt an emptiness in her heart. It was as if she lost something

and she felt very uncomfortable.

After getting into her car, she couldn’t suppress the urge to curse, "SHIT!! That asshole just left without

a word!"

The man probably eloped with Yoi!

As she thought about that, she started her car, "Forget it, since he had decided that, why should I worry

about him!?" Thinking that, she drove away.

She thought that was the case.

But the very next day, she saw the news that Yoi’s drug abuse case had a verdict, she would be

detained for more than ten days but under fifteen days, and she would be fined and then released!

When Dorie saw the news, she frowned. This kind of people should be sent to jail for at least a few

years!

Although she was thinking that, the moment she saw the news, she knew that Su wasn’t together with

Yoi. And so, where did he go?

Yoi’s court case finally had a verdict. And it was shown in every TV news channel.

That meant that as long as Yoi had a good attitude, she could be released after the detention.

When the design department saw that news, they made no comment. That included Annabelle, she

didn’t have any thoughts and feelings about that at all.

However, When Esther Ji saw the news, she frowned and her face was pale.

The colleagues in the design department were gossiping about the news but they weren’t as excited as

few days ago.

Alistair sat in his office and looked at the news report on TV. The man had a grim expression. In the

end, he turned off the TV and looked outside the window. He was contemplating whether he should

take matters into his own hands…

In the afternoon, Annabelle went to the hospital.

Although they knew that Yoi was the one that caused the grandmother’s injury, there was nothing they

could do. Annabelle didn’t know if Alistair was attempting something. But as far as she knows, nothing

was done yet.

When Annabelle got to the hospital, she continued to clean up the place and wiped the grandmother.

After that, she stayed back and chatted with her.

After cleaning her, she sat by the grandmother’s bed side and said, "Grandma, we finally found out that

your accident was related to Yoi!"

"If you don’t wake up, who is going to officiate my wedding with Alistair?" Yoi looked at the grandmother

as she was speaking, otherwise, one might even think she was speaking to herself.

The grandmother continued to lie down quietly and showed no signs of waking up. Right the very

moment Annabelle wanted to let the grandmother’s hand down, she felt that her fingers moved a little.

Annabelle was stunned and she thought that it was her illusion. However, as she examined very

carefully, she found out that it was indeed, the grandmother’s finger moving.

Annabelle knew that it was a good sign. The doctor had briefed them about that, it was the signs of

waking up!

"Grandma, grandma…" Annabelle looked at the grandmother in exhilaration.

"Grandma, you can hear what I am saying, right?"

After that, she saw that the grandmother’s eyelashes flickered. And she opened her eyes slowly.

When Annabelle saw that, she was overcome with emotion and everything felt like a dream, "Grandma,

you woke up!!!"

The grandmother looked at Annabelle and opened her mouth slowly, "If I don’t wake up soon, I would

need to continue to hear your nagging…"

Annabelle burst out into a giggle. But her eyes were welled up in tears.

At that moment, Annabelle pressed the button on the bed side. Soon after, a doctor came inside.

"Did anything happen, Miss Xia?"

The moment the doctor saw grandma Mu waking up, he was shocked. The man went over immediately

to examine her.

Annabelle stood beside the doctor. She pondered for a while and made a call to Alistair and Zen.

After hanging up, she watched from the side. The woman was trembling and she was feeling an

overwhelming excitement.

After a while, the doctor finished his examination and he cheered, "Congratulations, Miss Xia! Grandma

Mu is waking up and she seemed to be all right. Even the blood clots in her brain were cleared up. We

just need to focus on her recovery after that and you can expect a speedy discharge!"

"Really!?"

The doctor nodded, "Cases like these are rare, almost one in a hundred. Obviously, she is a lucky

grandmother!"

"Thank you so much, doctor!"

"You are welcome!"

After saying that, the doctor left the ward.

Annabelle stood there for a moment. She looked at the grandmother and walked towards her bed side,

"Thank God, grandma, you woke up!"

"You are here to nag me every day, if I don’t wake up, my ears would fall off!" The grandmother said.

When Annabelle heard that, her tears came down and she broke into laughter. She was too emotional.

It was nothing short of a miracle for her to wake up like that!

When they were chatting, the door was opened suddenly. After that, Alistair hurried inside.

The moment he came inside, Annabelle was feeding the grandmother some porridge.

It was a touching sight for the man.

"Grandma…" Alistair hurried over and looked at his grandmother, "How are you feeling? Do you feel

uncomfortable anywhere?"

"The doctor just examined her. She is completely fine and she simply need some days for recovery.

After that she can be discharged!" Annabelle chuckled. The young woman was elated for the

miraculous happening.

When Alistair heard that, he glanced over at Annabelle and then back to the grandmother, "You must

make sure to tell us if you feel any discomfort!"

"You silly boy, are you cursing me!?" The grandmother joked. Although she was jeering at him, her tone

was filled with tenderness and love towards Alistair.

Alistair laughed as well.

The three of them were in a cheery mood. After sometime, Zen and his wife came.

The moment they saw their mother’s condition, they were overjoyed.

The Mu family members shared a close relationship with each other and Annabelle was envious of

that. She held high respect towards their family for that.

Although Alistair had always appeared to be egocentric, he actually cared greatly for his family.

Annabelle looked at the family and her lips curled up faintly.

"None of you could match my Annabelle! I could always hear her nagging by my bedside!" The

grandmother said that, giving Annabelle the credits.

Annabelle chuckled, "That is my rightful duty!"

"Rightful duty?" When the grandmother heard that, she looked at the young woman. She was standing

side-by-side with Alistair and the grandmother was perturbed.

At that time, Alistair wrapped his arms around Annabelle and said, "Exactly, she is going to be your

grand daughter-in-law soon!"

The grandmother’s eyes widened and she looked at Annabelle’s ring.

"Really!?"

Annabelle did not deny and nodded.

"Not bad at all, you silly boy! You didn’t let your grandmother down!" Grandmother was in exhilaration.

Alistair looked at Annabelle and his eyes were beaming with thankfulness.

When the parents looked at the young couple, they exchanged a look and smiled restfully.

"By the way, mom, what happened to you in the stairs?" At that moment, Zen asked.

The moment he mentioned that, there was a tension in the room.

Although Annabelle and Alistair had learnt of the truth, they still turned their head towards the

grandmother for affirmation. To attest if that Esther Ji was telling the truth.

When the grandmother heard that, her expression changed.

"Now that I am awake, there are accounts to be settled!"

After getting out from the hospital, it was already late.

Annabelle and Alistair sat in the car quietly. Although they didn’t talk, both of them were very happy.

They held each other’s hand tightly and didn’t let go.

Even after they reached home, the two of them still didn’t say anything to each other. Until, they went to

the bedroom.

Annabelle spoke, "Do you want some red wine? I will go get some!" After saying that, she wanted to

leave but Alistair grabbed her suddenly. The man pressed her against the wall.

Annabelle was stunned as she stared at the gorgeous face, "What’s up?"

"Thank you!" He said suddenly. The man stared into Annabelle’s eyes and his gaze was deep and

loving.

Annabelle’s lips curled up, "Thank me for what?"

"I know you are the one that visited grandma all the time during this period. Thank you for being by her

side when she wakes up. I knew you were doing that all for me, therefore, thank you!" Alistair didn’t

want to talk about that. But he just couldn’t suppress his emotion.

Annabelle looked at Alistair. She knew that the grandmother’s well-being had relieved a great burden

on him.

She knew that he was someone that prioritized his family.

Annabelle looked at him and smiled, "President Mu, since when are you so cheesy?"

"I am serious! How fortunate I am to meet you again!" Alistair said emotionally.

At that time, Annabelle stretched out her hand and held Alistair’s. She looked at him and blinked her

long eyelashes gently, "There are no need for words of thanks between us. We are one and I hope that

we can appreciate each other no matter when. I want to grow old with you!"

Her words were simple but they etched in his mind and pounded on his heart.

Alistair stared at her and he couldn’t hold back himself anymore. He moved closer and kissed her

lips…

There was probably just one sentence he could say to express his love for this woman.

He wanted to kiss every inch of her skin…

There was a quote from the letter from Napoleon to Josephine:

I hope before long to crush you in my arms and cover you with a million kisses burning as though

beneath the equator.

Few days later, the grandmother was discharged.

They didn’t rush to report on Yoi because they knew that she was already in deep trouble. The

grandmother was unhurried.

However, to everyone’s greatest surprise…

One day, when Annabelle and Alistair were in the Mu family, planning the celebration for the

grandmother’s discharge. A few police officers came knocking on the door.

"Hi, are you Mr. Mu?"

Alistair nodded.

"We wish to inform you that the police received an envelope and we found a recording inside.

Therefore, we came to notify you." The police said.

When Alistair and Annabelle heard that, they exchanged a look.

"We received a handphone inside the envelope last night and there was a voice recording in it. It is

directly related to Cole Ho’s case!"

After that, the police took out the phone and showed Alistair, playing the voice recordings.

The Mu family were there and they listened as well.

The voice recording started to play.

The moment Alistair heard the female voice, he recognized that it was Yoi.

When Annabelle heard that, her expression changed.

Because it was a conversation between Yoi and Cole Ho.

After finishing the recording, Alistair had a grim expression. Although the man knew that Yoi had been

playing dirty tricks from the back, it was still a shock for him to personally hear the conversation

between Yoi and Cole Ho.

"We wish to understand more about the relationship between Miss Annabelle, Miss Han and Cole

Ho…" The police said.

Annabelle came back to her senses and told them everything.

After that, the police officers got up, "Thank you for your cooperation. With this evidence, we believe we

can get a result soon!"

Annabelle nodded, "I hope so!"

The police officer smiled, "Then I shouldn’t bother you guys, we will leave now!"

Annabelle nodded and they left.

Alistair sat down on the couch and crossed his arms. The man seemed to be in deep thought.

After the police left, the grandmother and Zen sat in the living room and they were both enraged.

"I had long felt that she wasn’t a good woman. But I hadn’t thought that she could do something so

wicked. Alistair, you mustn’t cover for her this time!" The grandmother said.

For the sake of her grandson, grandma Mu decided to not blow the whistle on Yoi. But now that she

heard of the woman’s crime, she was infuriated.

All those horrid that happened to Annabelle was actually arranged by Yoi! That was unforgivable!

At that time, Alistair raised his eyes and looked at his grandmother, "Grandma, rest assured. I will make

sure to take back everything she owes you and Annabelle!"

When Annabelle saw Alistair’s expression, she knew that things wouldn’t end so easily this time.

She didn’t know what to say after learning the truth. She had finally found out what happened, but she

wasn’t as happy as she thought she would be.

"I didn’t think she could do something like that. She almost got Alistair killed several times!" Madam Mu

said. As she recalled Yoi, she was still frightful. The woman was depraved and she could just do Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

anything!

Annabelle sat there and looked at the family. After contemplating for a while, she said, "All right now, no

matter what happened in the past, she is already in custody. Now that the truth had prevailed, I believe

she will pay for her crimes!"

"But we gather here today to celebrate grandma’s discharge from the hospital, let us think and say

about happy things! Let’s talk about this later!" Annabelle said.

At that time, the father spoke as well, "Annabelle is right. Let’s talk about that after a few days!"

The grandmother looked at Annabelle and said, "All right, I’ll listen to Annabelle!"

At that time, the atmosphere livened up.

Annabelle looked at Alistair, "Mr. Mu, please cooperate!"

When Alistair heard her, his lips curled up and he turned over to look at Annabelle, "Okay!"

Annabelle smiled.

The Mu household was in a joyous and merry atmosphere. However, even if Alistair was smiling the

entire night, Annabelle could tell that he was deeply troubled.

It seemed that Alistair had his own opinion on the case.

During dinner, the grandmother looked at the young couple and asked, "Alistair, when do you guys plan

to get married?"

When Alistair heard that, he turned towards Annabelle and his eyes were gleaming in happiness,

"Someone promised me that we will wait for grandma, you to wake up. And get you to be our marriage

officiant!"
