My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 998

She accompanied her mom to the company, where everyone treated her with respect because they all knew she was the company’s successor. After showing her around the various departments, Daphne led her into a conference room.

Angela discreetly glanced at her watch as she listened in on the conference where her mom and the shareholders discussed the company’s plans. It was already 11.00AM. She became nervous out of nowhere with a guilty conscience. She hoped Annie could accept the breakup of their engagement without being hurt. 11.30AM.

Annie arrived on time at a particular restaurant and was already at the restaurant’s entrance. She chose attractive feminine clothing to present her best self in front of Richard with light and delicate makeup for their date. Any woman would want to look her absolute best while meeting a man she has her eyes on.

Annie finally encountered the man at the table next to the window for the second time. He sat there with the sun streaming through the window, looking like a gorgeous sculpture, radiating its attractiveness and masculinity.

Annie admired and worshiped Richard from the bottom of her heart since he had a significant presence that drew admiration from those around him. She went to see him alone, her breathing hastened with her hands clasped tightly. “Richard.” She greeted the man before taking a seat in front of him.

Breaking away from his thoughts, he gazed at her, who pursed her lips and turned her eyes away since she didn’t dare to look at him. “You’ve come.” He returned her greeting while handing her the menu. “Let’s order.”

“You do it. I’m not particular about my food,” Annie replied shyly.

Richard beckoned the waiter and, after considerable thought, chose four dishes. After placing his order, he poured a cup of tea for her.

She leaped to her feet. “I can do it on my own.”

Things were unpredictable, as usual. His love life was still empty at the last dinner party. However, after barely three months, a woman had wholly captured his heart. “I’m sorry.” He apologized to her.

She raised her head, her eyes reddening, and asked, “What type of woman is she? Is she more talented than I am? Is she better than me?” She couldn’t admit she wasn’t as good as the lady Richard adored. Annie also considered herself a good choice as she was a confident and cheerful woman.

He said hushedly, “She’s not a woman with many talents, but in my heart, no one can replace her.”

Annie reached for the tissues next to her and dabbed her eyes with them as tears slid down her cheek. The waiter arrived and served their food. Richard watched her body tremble without touching the food and sobbing as he attempted to comfort her. “I believe you will meet a man who is better than me.”
