Accidental love

Chapter 12 Hypocrisy

"Black, I'm sorry. I had no choice at that time." Anna was good at acting. When she was defending herself, her tears were falling down.

"Then how about Lucy? How dare she go against me without your support?" Black frowned and asked her sternly.

"Black, I have explained and you still don’t trust me. This really hurt me. I should leave now!" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Anna bit her lower lip and was going to leave the office.

But if she really left, who could prove Alice’s innocence and be the scapegoat?

As long as noticing Anna wanted to leave, Black hurried to stop her.

"Of course I trust you! I'm just too anxious about this situation! I need your help now. You'll help me, right?" He looked very earnest.

"How can I help you?" Anna hesitated and asked. Her eyes were full of tears.

"It's actually quite easy." Black grasped her arms. "All you have to do is to explain to the investors and the director team that you planned everything to get attention and return to the showbiz. Then all the problems will be solved!"

"... Right?" Anna smiled sadly. She was very clear that once she did as Black said, she would be the easy target and face all abuse alone, while Alice’s reputation would be good again.

In order to prevent Anna from seeing through his trick, Black continued and comforted. "Anna, what I have done is for our future. If the company develops poorly, how can I prove to your family I can take good care of you? Don't worry. When this is over, I will marry you at once!"

That was so ridiculous. How could she be fooled by such bad lies?

Anna nodded slowly. "I will do this for you. But remember this is the last time."

"OK, I'll arrange it right away. You can rest now and don’t go anywhere." After saying this, Black quickly left with his assistant.

Anna sat in the spacious office and elegantly wiped her tears. Then Black’s driver suddenly came in.

"Miss Anna, Mr Black asked me take you to the hotel to rest. He also said after he finished, he would come to you."

"Will he?"

He must be in a hurry to tell Alice the latest progress.

"That's all right. Don’t bother. I can do it myself..."

As Anna was speaking, she was interrupted by the driver. "Mr. Black said I should take you to the hotel myself."

Anna got it. Black didn’t trust her and asked the driver to watch her. But it didn’t matter anyway. She had her own plans in advance. Whether Black was monitoring her or not, she would not compromise, let alone take the blame for them!

"OK, I'll go to the hotel and wait for him."

Anna hid her feeling well and clutched the bag in the hand. She put on an obedient appearance and followed the driver to leave Brilliant Entertainment Company.

Behind their car, Jack's men drove and followed. Jack was willing to allow Anna to deal with her problems. But he must be sure of her safety first.

Anna found the driver had looked back at the rearview mirror several times. She was confused, and opened the window. There was a car following. She instantly recognized the license plate number. Jack was protecting her in secret. Realizing this, her face lit up. She really made a good choice when picking up a husband.

The driver watched and made sure Anna went into the elevator of the hotel. Lucy came in with a peak cap. when the door closed, she took off the cap and said with a smile. "Black should send more people to watch you.”

"Lucy!" Anna was moved and sorry at the same time. "You get in trouble because of me."

"Don't be so sentimental. What shall we do next? It seems Black will not let you leave as you wish." She analyzed.

"Never mind. Since I have got your help and... I will make them pay for what they have done." She didn’t mention Jack but she was sure that he would be glad to help. Thinking of him, she smiled unconsciously.

"Your smile is very strange. You have got help from someone else!" When Lucy saw her expression, she inferred.
