Chapter 530
A chill ran down Annie's spine as she stared at the card in her hands. She asked, “Is everything good to go?”
Grayson replied softly, “I've made the necessary arrangements. It’s up to you now. Don’t disappoint all of us,
Annie.”
Her face paled. Anxiety clogged her throat. However, when she thought of their predicament, she could only nod
and say, “Alright.”
Then, she left the hall with the card.
It was 10:00 pm. The gala would be ending in an hour's time. Due to the late hour, many people would be
staying at the hotel that night.
Joe swirled his glass. The crimson liquid sparkled under the light. He had drunk almost four glasses of red wine
out of boredom. However, his frustration remained.
“Mr. Martin, I've booked your room for you. Here's the key card,” said Paul.
Joe took the card from Paul and informed him, “I'm going up to rest.”
Joe wasn't a stranger to leaving early. After all, he got bored easily at events, like these.
Paul had also booked a room for himself. Since Joe had left, he also went upstairs after a few more sips of wine.
These galas offered premium wine. He couldn't bear to spend on these bottles of champagne, so he would take
advantage of the occasion and have his share.
Suddenly, he stared into the distance. Hadn't Natalie found out about Jeremy's affair? He'd already fired
Annabelle, and they'd broken up. Why...

Annabelle stumbled into Jeremy's arms. Perhaps Jeremy hadn't reacted quickly enough to push her away, but he
allowed her to fall into his embrace.
Annabelle’s gorgeous face was covered with a dainty blush. Paul couldn't hear their conversation from where he
was standing, and the music also hindered his hearing.
However, he had always been a gossiper
Annabelle’s schemes were ingenious. She could twist the situation to her advantage even after Natalie found out
that Jeremy had cheated.
Jeremy probably didn’t care about Natalie's opinion anymore.
No matter how much Paul wanted to watch the show, he forced himself to turn away so Jeremy wouldn't think he
was spying on them.
At the stime, Jeremy pushed Annabelle away. He seemed cold and unforgiving.
When Annabelle was shoved off him, surprise contorted her features. Yet, the smile from when she’d fallen into
Jeremy’s arms hadn't faded either. She looked ridiculous as the two expressions warred against each other.
“Mr. Hughes,” Annabelle protested weakly.
How could this be possible? When she approached him, his gaze had softened. He had been entranced by her
like before. Why was he behaving differently today?
Within a few seconds, Jeremy's expression had changed completely. He pushed her off him without hesitation.
Jeremy clenched his jaw. He asked, “I see you haven't given up on seducing me, eh?”
“No, | wasn't trying to seduce you. I'd worn heels that were too high for me. | couldn’t find my footing in them, so
| accidentally fell into your arms. It’s my fault. | remember what you said tothe last twe met.”
Annabelle immediately acted like a frightened doe. However, she was
genuinely terrified. Why had this method lost its effectiveness entirely? How could this be possible?
She did not understand. Was it
because of the shattered p reehain?

“Which perfdo you use?” asked Jeremy. He looked down at her questioningly.
Annabelle was stunned by his question. Her heart pounded nervously as she replied, “I don’t use perfume.”
