Chapter 261 Annabelle Threatens Ethan
"Annabelle is here." Upon hearing that Annabelle had arrived at Stellar Enterprises, Howard surprisingly came out to greet her. He really showed Annabelle a lot of face. Annabelle walked over with a smile, but deep inside, she sneered. When Ethan publicly broke off their engagement, the Cunningham's Family had said they would arrange a marriage, but Howard didn't have this kind of attitude back then. "Hello, Howard!" Now that she had become the Cunningham's Family's young lady, it could be seen how shameless Howard was. She had a use for Howard now.
"Annabelle, come here quickly. I haven't seen you for a long time and I miss you." Howard was too hypocritical. Ever since she became the Cunningham's Family's young lady, he started to grovel like this.
Annabelle felt somewhat proud. The status of being the Cunningham's Family's young lady was truly useful.
"Annabelle, are you here to see Ethan?" Howard smiled and asked.
"Yes, is Ethan here?" Annabelle gently inquired.
"Of course, even if he isn't here, I will make him come back. You two are destined to be together." Howard smiled and probed Annabelle. "What do you think about the alliance union between the Cunningham's Family and the Douglas family, Annabelle?"
Annabelle smiled. "I never expected that I would actually be Nolan's biological sister."
Howard laughed awkwardly. He hadn't expected it either. It was indeed a strange matter, but no one dared to speak recklessly.
"Annabelle, you've been lucky. You were born with a noble destiny." Howard flattered.
Annabelle sneered inwardly. Howard, a member of Silverlight City's top family, was trying to please her, the Cunningham's Family's young lady, so eagerly. This showed how much Crestwood Development Group had been giving Stellar Enterprises a hard time during this period.
Howard and Daniel lacked Ethan's abilities. They were unwilling to let Ethan have all the power and could only rely on the shortcut of a marriage alliance.
"Howard, I want to talk to Ethan. He doesn't seem to want to marry me," Annabelle said meaningfully, looking at Howard.
"Annabelle, don't worry. I have decided on this matter. If Ethan doesn't appreciate it, the Douglas family doesn't just have one son," Howard and Annabelle tested each other.
Annabelle relaxed and smiled.
Today, she is givingave Ethan one last chance.
The office.
Ethan, who is usually busy, appeared unusually relaxedis now leisurely. His power authority has been undermined taken over by Howard.
"Mr. Douglas, are you going to let Mr. Howard take control?Mr. Douglas, are you willing to be controlled by Mr. Howard Douglas?" Liam asked anxiously. He thought Ethan would definitely fight back.
"Don't worry," Ethan said lightly, still looking at his iPad.
Liam thought Ethan was thinking of a way to retaliate. When he went over to take a look, Ethan was actually browsing jewelry!
"Mr. Douglas, how can you still have the mood for shopping?" Liam sighed.
"There will be a charity auction organized by the Chamber of Commerce in a few days. I'm just looking in advance for something suitable for my wife," Ethan said calmly, looking very focused.
Liam was shocked. Ethan never cared about the charity auction in previous years. He didn't care about what was being auctioned.
But this year, he seemed to be taking it seriously.
"If you are ousted kicked out by Mr. Howard, penniless, do you think Wilson will still be with you?" Liam said helplessly. "Women are very realistic. Wilson is with you because she needs protection. If you fall from grace, she will find someone else."
Liam wanted to stimulate Ethan's ambition.
He didn't expect to ignite Ethan's competitive spirit! "The woman I have set my eyes on won't be so shallow. Even if I have nothing, she won't reject me."
Liam took a deep breath. He didn't know why Ethan was so confident. "Mr. Douglas, you're thinking too muchnaively."
"Let's make a bet," Ethan said calmly.
"What are we betting on?" Liam became interested.
"If I lose, you can ask for any condition. But if you lose," Ethan raised an eyebrow confidently, "you will go beat up Daniel. If he calls the police, I'll help you."
Liam saw that Ethan was in a good mood and was even joking.
He could tell how much Ethan cared about Daniel and Wilson's past.
"Mr. Ethan Douglas, Annabelle is here," Liam said.
Ethan frowned and glanced at Liam. "Tell her I don't want to see her."
Liam sighed. "She's changed now."
"So what?" Ethan's voice was icy.
Liam could see that Ethan despised Annabelle.
Annabelle had always been acting, playing the role of a fragile woman.
If it weren't for Wilson being with Ethan, she would have really fooled him.
She was too good at lying.
"Ethan."
"Ethan!"
Annabelle gained confidence and barged in.
She was now the heiress of the Cunningham Family. "Ethan, let's talk."
Ethan leaned back in his chair, his cold gaze fixed on Annabelle. "What do we have to talk about?"
"The engagement between the Douglas family and the Cunningham Family cannot be easily canceled. I can offer you more than Wilson," Annabelle said directly.
"What you can offer me, I don't dare to accept," Ethan sneered. "Your identity has changed too quickly. You were the woman who was with me six years ago, and now you are the Cunningham Family's princess. I'm afraid you'll show up tomorrow claiming to be the ancestor of the Douglas family, and we'd have to worship you."
Annabelle's eyes turned red with anger. "Ethan, why do you hate me so much? It wasn't intentional for me to deceive you six years ago. I genuinely made a mistake and entered your room. I didn't know you weren't there. When I woke up..."
"I don't want to hear about your affairs," Ethan interrupted Annabelle.
"Ethan, you know, I am now the princess of the Cunningham Family. I have three brothers who dote on me, and none of them will let me be bullied. Your position at Stellar Enterprises is already in danger. If you don't agree to the engagement, I will be withmarry Daniel. After all, the Douglas family and the Wilson Family have already broken their engagement," Annabelle threatened Ethan.
Annabelle knew very well that Daniel had seriously threatened Ethan's position at Stellar Enterprises.
If Annabelle and Daniel formed an alliance at this time, it would be a fatal blow to Ethan.
Howard kicked Ethan out without hesitation.
Leaving him with nothing.
To prevent Ethan from seeking revenge, she would join forces with Daniel and Claire to completely suppress him and seize his assets. She would make sure he fell into the abyss, never to recover.
Ethan squinted his eyes and looked at Annabelle, smiling.
Annabelle thought Ethan would be afraid. But he stood up, looking down on her with a mix of pity and benevolence.
Annabelle's idea really excited him.
"You should marry Daniel then."
