Chapter 135:
Spokesperson?
Annabel was perplexed. She wondered whether Rupert was looking for her only to find out if Rory was the spokesman.
After some thought, she stated, “Annie White, Mr. McCoy’s girlfriend, will be playing the role of the female spokesperson. The male spokesperson will be Rory Kelly p>
As soon as Rupert heard Annabel mention Rory, he became tense.
“Rory? Did you do it intentionally, Annabel?” Rupert inquired, narrowing his eyes. “Are you using the company’s resources to further your personal goals p>
He could not believe that Annabel dared to do such a thing.
He was shocked that she had asked Rory to be the male spokesperson.
Rupert thought that Annabel just wanted to annoy him by flirting with Rory in his presence.
Annabel rubbed her brows, feeling a little powerless. She had anticipated that Rupert would react this way.
Annabel stared into his cold eyes and asked, “Rupert, what nasty ideas are you thinking about? Mr. McCoy suggested having Rory be the spokesperson. Should we not cater to the needs of our clients? What’s the matter with Rory? He is handsome and has a good figure. I think he will make the best spokesperson p>
That infuriated Rupert. To Annabel, Rory was perfect.
Rupert abruptly got to his feet and stepped closer to Annabel. “So, is this why you like Rory p>
Annabel could not be more perplexed. She had no feelings for Rory.
“Rupert, we’re talking about work here. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave.” Annabel did not want to argue with him about it any longer.
She decided to work overtime to avoid the awkwardness between her and Rupert.
Later that evening, Annabel was the only one left working in the secretarial department.

Her phone rang as she was reviewing the details of tomorrow’s audition.
She checked her phone and saw that it was her grandpa calling.
Annabel quickly answered the phone. “Grandpa p>
“Anna, why haven’t you called me in a long time? Are you all right?” Leonard asked cheerfully.
Annabel’s heart was filled with guilt. She had not called her grandfather for a long time.
“I’m fine, Grandpa. It’s just that I have been so busy recently,” Annabel said, smiling.
“Being busy is wonderful. The guy I chose for you isn’t bad, right?” Leonard remarked, laughing.
“Rupert? What did you see in him, Grandpa?” Annabel rolled her eyes. “He is stingy, short-tempered, irritable, and annoying p>
“I think he’s a good match for you. Get along nicely with Rupert. You will understand that I don’t make snap judgments.” Leonard touched his beard.
He then ended the call.
Annabel was at a loss for words when Leonard hung up on her.
