Chapter 249 Try 5
After getting changed, Annabelle tied her hair up. She wore a comfortable casual wear and her
spectacle and she got out the door.
Annabelle was very familiar with her residential area. She enjoyed shopping in the market in the late
noon.
She had always thought that one should live every single day in enjoyment and not stress. Therefore,
she would be going to the market from time to time and make a good meal for herself. She found
herself enjoying such simplistic joy!
After getting to the market, Annabelle started to pick her vegetables and junk foods. She had a huge
chunk on her trolley and they were all the brands that she preferred.
After shopping for over an hour, Annabelle went to pay by the counter and walked home with her
shopping bags.
It wasn’t too far and it only took her about a few minutes.
Annabelle held a huge shopping bag and walked back.
Right after she reached her apartment area, she saw a back view she was familiar with.
It was none other than Alistair, making a call!
The man turned his head back and saw Annabelle.
Why was he there?
Annabelle was puzzled.
When Alistair saw say Annabelle standing near him and her weird get-up, he was stunned. After that,
the man scanned her from head to toe. After confirming that he got the right person, Alistair walked
towards her.
“Where have you been?” Alistair stared at her and asked. Alistair’s tone reflected his impatience and
anxiousness.
Annabelle frowned and stood there looking at the anxious man. After that she answered slowly, “I went
to the market to get some stuff!”
“Then why didn’t you answer your phone!?” Alistair asked. The man had been worried sick when he
couldn’t get through her phone.
Annabelle blinked her eyes and said, “I left my phone at home and I didn’t bring it!”
“……”
Alistair gritted his teeth and glared at Annabelle. But the man said nothing.
“Don’t you know you should be bringing your phone at all times? Do you know how worried I was?!” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Alistair stared at her and fumed.
Worried?
Annabelle felt awkward when she heard that from Alistair.
However, she knew that the man meant well and she shouldn’t be making fun of him. After momentary
consideration, Annabelle said, “Sorry about that, I didn’t know that you would call me. I was going to
the market for a quick shopping and so I didn’t bring my phone!”
Alistair glared at her. He knew that she wasn’t doing it on purpose and he slowly calmed himself down.
He stared at her and enunciated, “You must always bring your phone wherever you go. Also, make
sure it’s contactable!”
Annabelle nodded meekly.
When Alistair saw Annabelle carrying a heavy shopping bag, he walked forward and took it over.
Annabelle was surprised and she stared at him. Before she could say anything, Alistair walked away,
“Let’s talk after we get back, it’s not safe outside!”
After hearing that, Annabelle was a little surprised. But she quickened her steps and followed after him.
When they got to the lift, Alistair asked, “Which floor?”
“16.”
And so Alistair pressed on the button.
There was not much of a crowd in the apartment in the afternoon and they were the only two in the lift.
Alistair was holding her stuff and the man recalled something, “You are still in danger. It’s best that you
don’t wander around. If you need to buy anything, just tell me!”
Annabelle was standing by the side when she heard Alistair. And then she asked, “Are you sure it’s that
dangerous?”
Right that moment, the lift door opened and a *Ding*. Alistair turned his head back and stared at
Annabelle, “Are you sure you want to experience that again?!”
