A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased

Chapter 186

Chapter 186

Annie’s delicate and charming little face was pale and fragile, her body as soft as cotton, instinctively seeking refuge in the man’s arms like a small animal avoiding danger.

Vincent lowered his eyes, feeling a chill in his chest, and his long, trembling eyelashes, like raven feathers, quivered.

The girl’s wet and sticky touch melded with his warm skin through the thin black shirt, causing him to take a slight breath and subconsciously tighten his arms.

“Sister of vegetable flower?” He called her in a low, hoarse voice.

“Annie shut her eyes tightly and took hold of his freshly pressed garments, not uttering a single word.”

Vincent couldn’t help but inquire gently, “Are you injured?”

“She leaned her forehead against his chest and shook her head in disbelief.”

She refrained from banning him and felt pity.

Upon seeing Young Master Anderson’s arrival, the two bodyguards’ attitudes changed drastically as they quickly bowed and greeted him respectfully.

“Good evening, Master Anderson!”

“What did you mean just now?” Vincent still held Annie, not letting go, but his tone was languid as he asked them.

“Oh, it’s no big deal.”

The bodyguard who had been the most stern with Annie just now smiled and said, “This young lady is a fan of Ms. Ada Wang. She was adamant about entering without an invitation letter. We tried to reason with her, but she wouldn’t listen…

“So, you took action?” Vincent’s lips curved into a smile, and his eyes grew darker.

“It’s not a fight; we’re just doing business. We had to stop her from entering.” The bodyguards kept their distance from the important and the light. Of course, they couldn’t admit that they had just been bullying a little girl.

gave a

faint smile, then lowered his head and murmured in Annie’s ear, “Can I help you

let out your

frustration?”

Annie still didn’t have the courage to look him in the eye. She gave a slight nod and shook her head in response.

Vincent curled his sexy lips as he hugged Annie with his left arm. His right hand then reached into his wine-red velvet suit, taking out his phone to dial Joseph’s number.

“Hello, Mr. Sawle, may I speak with the people in the Sawle Group?”

The words left the two bodyguards speechless, exchanging bewildered glances.

Vincent slowly raised his left hand and rested it on the back of Annie’s neck. He tenderly stroked her damp hair. “Ah, your words have put me at ease.”

The man, bringing up the rear, helped Annie to remain steady and raised his hand in a gesture.

In the next instant, the well-trained bodyguards behind him surged forward, encircling the two bodyguards who had yet to comprehend the situation.

Annie, perplexed, stared at Vincent, whose left hand was tucked into his pocket, as he walked into the encirclement with a pale face. Immediately, the bodyguards in black closed in around him, blocking him from view.

“Ah -!”

“Oh -!”

The bodyguards tightly surrounded her, and Annie could not see what Vincent was doing; all she could hear were the screams that made her heart beat faster!

After a minute of beating, Vincent finally stopped, his cold gaze fixed on the two men kneeling before him. Taking the handkerchief offered by his bodyguards, he slowly wiped the blood from his back hand.

“You can’t even recognize the third lady from the Sawle family. What’s the point of having eagle eyes?”

The two bodyguards, trembling with fear, looked at Annie and then kowtowed to her.

“Fourth Miss, please forgive us! We beg your pardon; our dog eyes failed to recognize someone as esteemed as you! Please forgive us!”

Everyone knew that Anderson Group was adept at both pleasing and offending Young Master Anderson; thus, their future in Medo would not be a pleasant one.

“This is just a minor issue. I don’t need to bother your boss. I’ll handle it for him.”

Vincent still had a smile in his eyes. He raised his hand and flung the grimy handkerchief at them. “You two, get out of Sawle Group and Medo. If my people spot you here again, the next time you won’t be so lucky.”

“Much appreciated! Many thanks, Mr. Anderson! Appreciate it!”

Crying bitterly, the two men were carried out by Anderson Group’s people, for which they had to be grateful.

Annie pursed her pink lips timidly, standing still out of fear.

Vincent once again strode ahead of her. He leaned in and gazed into her clear eyes, which were like a deer’s. His face was incredibly handsome, and the corners of his lips curved into a mischievous smile. “Sis of vegetable flower, you are so enigmatic. The folks at Sawle Group don’t even know you exist.”

“Do you have to do this?” Annie’s voice was feeble as she took a tiny step back.

“Do you think I’m pushing the boundaries?” Vincent narrowed his eyes.

“…” Annie lowered her long lashes and nodded.

“But why do I feel that it’s not nearly enough?”

Vincent noticed her forlorn look was actually quite endearing. He couldn’t help but reach out and stroke her silky hair. “You’re Joseph’s sister. They were picking on you. Of course, I had to step in.”

“This time, it was my lightest attack. I was afraid of scaring you.”

Annie felt the warmth of the man’s palm slowly permeate her body through her hair.

She couldn’t help but shrink her thin shoulders in the warmth and comfort, narrowing her eyes like a contented kitten.

Skyler, who had just emerged from the banquet hall, happened to witness this scene.

She had never anticipated that her sister, who had always been self-reliant, would make the journey from so far away!

“You little vixen! You enticed my man without even glancing his way. You’re really shameless!”

Skyler’s eyes widened in anger as she took two steps forward before reacting.

If Vincent was too impulsive, she would lose her words and deeds, which could make her sweetheart even more hateful at that moment.

After spending so much time with Grace, she had certainly picked up some skills; most notably, she had become more patient.

Her eyes darkening, she concealed herself in the shadows to watch them.

Vincent noticed her hair was wet and her white dress was soaked, indicating she had come in the rain.

His heart shrinking, he removed his high-grade red velvet suit and draped it over Annie’s thin shoulder.

Skyler gritted her teeth, her facial features twisting beyond recognition in jealousy as she saw Young Master Anderson so concerned about that fool.

“Why are you in such a disheveled condition? Didn’t the Sawle family’s chauffeur bring you here?” Vincent inquired.

“No one knows that I came here; I came here secretly,” Annie replied truthfully.

“In secret?” Vincent furrowed his brows, unable to comprehend.

“Little, little big brother…”

Annie had no recollection of Vincent’s name nor of the kiss they had shared beneath the star-studded sky.

“Sister of vegetable flower, my last name is Anderson. My first name is Vincent, and I am a friend of your second brother.”

The smile on Vincent’s face broadened, “Call me Brother Vincent, Brother Anderson is fine. Little Brother… Heh, it seems like you’re trying to pull my leg!”

Vincent… Vincent Anderson?!

Annie remembered how Skyler had threatened her earlier, and every word she uttered seemed to be connected to the name Vincent.

She was struck with the sensation of being hit by lightning as she recoiled in terror.

However, Vincent did not realize that something was amiss. Instead, he clasped her frigid little hand and uttered with a grin, “I’ll get someone to switch out your clothes.”

“No… No need…”

“Don’t be so formal with me. Your second brother and I are like family. His sister is my help you change your clothes.”

Vincent and her hand in hand, walked onward.

“Brother, Brother Anderson.”

Annie was not a fool.

sister. Let’s go. I’ll

get someone to

She felt uncomfortable being held by an unfamiliar man like this, but she didn’t dare to resist. Her small hand was tightly clenched in the man’s palm. “Do you treat my sister the same way? She’s also my second brother’s sister…”

Skyler? Heh, was she worthy?

“No,” Vincent lowered his gaze to meet hers, and his smile was as radiant as the morning sun. “I only treat you this way.” Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Skyler listened to him in silence, her anger boiling to the point of explosion!

Her gaze turned into a knife that looked like it would ruthlessly cut at Annie’s back.
