“Not enough! Why did you come to my house?!”
“I stayed at the Don family to take care of Mom. She’s done a lot for me!” Annie’s voice trembled with anger as she remembered her efforts and felt a pang of bitterness.
Don Madam seemed to have done something wrong to her husband and children, so she held no status in the Don family. Cristina and Charles Don even refused to acknowledge her...
She also suffered from a leg condition, living in isolation.
So, Annie strived for the best results, seeking a rightful identity, just to gain recognition from Chairman Don and restore Don Madam's honor!
Chairman Don disliked her because of Don Madam and demanded that she contribute to the family before revealing her identity to the outside world.
It was only after the launch of Don Éclat No. 2' that he gradually accepted Annie.
All of this was ruined by Cristina...
Yet Cristina coldly mocked her, “Stop pretending. You must have some ulterior motive for getting close to my mother, right? Is it for status or for a man?!” She roughly yanked at Annie’s collar, sneering, “So, how is it? Is Wei Er very vigorous?!”
Annie had no idea what this crazy woman was talking about. It was only when she saw the marks under her clothes that memories of the moments before her fainting surged back, along with that wicked purple gaze...
It was him, that despicable man!
But the root of all this evil was Cristina, who had ruined her purity.
Even though she tried to stay calm, she could no longer control herself. She raised her delicate hand and slapped Cristina hard. “You’re the one who did this! And now you’re playing the victim! Tell me, what exactly did you put on my face?!”
Cristina covered one side of her face, her expression changing to one of fury. This woman dared to hit her?
But Annie was taller and was about to advance, so Cristina quickly held up a small porcelain bottle in front of her. “If you dare to move, I’ll drop this antidote!”
Antidote? Annie paused, eyeing her warily.
Seeing that Annie finally showed concern, Cristina smiled. “What you have on your face is a virus. See, there’s an antidote!”
She wiggled a small bottle in front of Annie’s eyes, and seeing Annie’s hopeful expression, she quickly put it away, “If you try to snatch it, I’ll destroy it right now…”
With a glimmer of hope, Annie gradually calmed down.
At least this person hadn’t used sulfuric acid on her, which was a relief!
She needed to stabilize the situation...
“Are you not afraid that I will tell Mom and Dad about what you did to my face?” Annie carefully watched her.
Cristina brushed the red marks on her face and glared at her fiercely, “Hmph, who saw it? Who can prove it? Why can’t it be that you ate something wrong or had an allergic reaction while working in the lab?”
“I can go to the hospital. You can’t use the antidote as a threat against me.” Annie said to the deranged woman.
Keeping the antidote was clearly meant to threaten her, something Annie didn’t need to think hard about.
“Don’t even think about it. This medicine was specially made. Even the hospital will find it hard to treat.”
“You are simply unreasonable. What exactly are you plAnnieing?”
“That’s the spirit of negotiation, sister!” She affectionately called her, crossing her arms coldly. “It’s simple: you are not allowed to get close to Wei Er or see him. Once I’m with him, the antidote will naturally be given to you! And if you bring this up with the family, I’ll destroy this only antidote immediately. Even if the family knows, they’ll just scold me. What can they do to me?! Hahaha…”
In the end, Cristina laughed heartily and left.
The room fell silent again. Annie gritted her teeth, feeling pain throughout her body.
She opened part of her clothing and, upon seeing the bite mark on her painful shoulder, her anger erupted, and she threw her pillows and blankets onto the floor, cursing, “s**t!”
She had never cursed before, but the situation was dire!
Missing the banquet, losing her purity, and now being poisoned...
Sitting in the mess on the bed, tears filled her eyes. At this moment, she heard a voice in her mind, “Annie, don’t cry. Crying only makes you weak. A strong girl is the most beautiful!”
Recalling Brother Lan’s words, she stubbornly raised her head and fought back the tears.
That’s right, crying was useless because no one could help her.
She told herself to hold on:
Yes, it’s just a layer of skin. It doesn’t matter! Now, she had to find a way to get the antidote...
