Chapter 72

  "Are you really not afraid of Kyle targeting you?"

  "I want to see how mean he can be. The more ruthless he is, the easier I can forget everything in the past, so no, I am not afraid," Annette said.

  Roxanne sighed. "That's true. If you were to quit as per others' suggestion at this time, then you wouldn't be Annette. I know that you are the perfect illustration of stubbornness."

  "Roxanne, anyway, don't worry about me. I'm fine. Actually, I'm not afraid of Kyle at all. I just dislike making simple things complicated. Now that he's here, I guess I just have to deal with whatever comes my way."

  "Alright then. If it's too much for you one day, remember, I'm always here for you," Roxanne said.

  Annette pursed her lips and smiled, "I know. Thank you."

  Just as Annette finished speaking, a figure flashed behind her. Someone put the tray on the table opposite her.

  She looked up and saw Marcus.

  She said to Roxanne, "Alright then, Roxanne, talk to you later. Bye."
