1264: Chapter 1261: Fear of Losing Everything We Have Now 1264: Chapter 1261: Fear of Losing Everything We Have Now “Gary, you’re back so soon.”
Madam White held Joanna’s hand, smiling and said, “Joanna really likes Orange, so I was just about to take her to see him.
Since you’re back, should I have the dinner prepared?”
“No rush.” Gary looked tenderly at Joanna and said, “I have sothing to discuss with Ashton.
We can have dinner later.”
“Alright then.”
Madam White said, “In that case, I’ll take Joanna to see Orange first.”
After saying that, Madam White left with Joanna.
“Ashton, let’s talk in the study.” After giving a signal to Ashton Heath, Gary also turned and walked upstairs.
When he passed by Annie Lawrence, Gary paused for a mont.
Annie imdiately beca nervous, her body tensing up.
She swallowed and softly called out, “Brother.”
“Hmph.”
Gary snorted coldly, and walked past her.
He didn’t say anything at all.
However, just from those few seconds that he stopped, cold sweat had broken out on Annie’s back.
Because she felt that Gary still suspected her.
She found out that Gary wasn’t an easy person to deceive, and her seemingly perfect and flawless sches hadn’t dispelled his suspicions.
She even felt that Gary had already discovered sothing.
This realization made her feel restless and scared.
She was afraid that the White family would find out the truth, and she was even more afraid of losing everything she had now.
She didn’t want to go back to her previous life at all.
What the White family could give her was sothing a thousand or ten thousand Lawrences could never offer.
The White family could make her stand above others.
Returning to her previous life, she would have to continue begging for favors; even if she had beco one of the so-called A-list actresses, without a powerful background to protect her, she would still be a pitiful prey.
In the past, she was with David Benington, and he protected her.
So during those two years, she didn’t suffer too much.
The Benington family was incomparable to the Heath and White families, but they still had a voice in their circle.
She had broken up with David now.
If she couldn’t find soone to protect her, she would soon face the unspoken rules of the industry.
She wouldn’t even have the right to refuse.
That’s why, no matter what, she had to secure her place with the White family.
However…
Thinking of Gary and Madam White’s attitude, Annie’s face gradually darkened.
They were all kind and pleasing to that little bitch Joanna.
But when it ca to her…
What kind of love potion had that little bitch cast on them!
“Miss, here’s the coffee you asked for.”
At this mont, Rowan the butler brought her the freshly brewed coffee.
Annie had already lost face and was in a state of confusion and anxiety.
Seeing Rowan coming over, she angrily swatted the tray of coffee from his hand.
“Take it away!
Everyone’s gone, so what’s the point of bringing it?
Who’s going to drink it!”
With her outburst, the coffee pot and several cups were spilled on the ground.
Even though Rowan dodged quickly, a red patch still appeared on the back of his hand from the scalding coffee.
A few maids nearby gasped when they saw what happened.
My goodness.
Didn’t the newly recognized young lady have a terrible temper?
Mr.
Vane had been serving the White family for thirty full years.
It was said that when Sir Darren was still young, Mr.
Vane had already been serving him.
Later, when Sir and Madam White lived abroad for several years, Mr.
Vane followed them too.
