Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1725 Bad Guys Started Plotting Again (Part Three)

"Is that so? I think you two are just pretending to be a couple. That ring isn't real, right? Everyone here

in S City knows that Mr. Xia is the most eligible bachelor here. You can't fool me!" Eleanor was still in

denial that a playboy like Rain would get married to someone like Annie. She had pondered and

thought for a few days, and this was the explanation that she thought was the most believable. From

what she had heard about Rain, he was never the type of man who would settle down. Besides, she

didn't think that a woman like Annie would catch his eye, let alone marry him.

"He was the golden bachelor before. But not anymore. He is happily married now. Married to me.

Certain people need to get over it and have some closure." Annie stared at Eleanor in the eye while

saying it. If Eleanor made that assumption a week ago, she would have still been right. Because at that

time, Annie and Rain weren't married yet and Rain was still the famous golden bachelor in the city.

Rain had legally become her husband and the father of her two kids now.

"Ha ha ha! It looks like I truly underestimated you. You are something else, Annie An. You got Mr. Xia

wrapped around your finger so easily," Eleanor snorted, jealousy evident in her voice. She just couldn't

make peace with the fact that Annie was the one Rain loved and married. Now, all her previous plans

had become dreams that would never come true. She felt frustrated that all her efforts had been in

vain, but she just wouldn't want to admit defeat.

"Thank you." Annie didn't get angry at Eleanor's attitude. She just accepted her words as a nice

compliment. She knew that Eleanor was just angry that she couldn't have Rain anymore. Besides, she

was not in the mood to argue with such a vile and fake woman. She had better things to do. As far as

she was concerned, Eleanor was a loser on so many levels.

"But don't be so sure of yourself, yet. Though Mr. Xia is married to you right now, it doesn't mean that

you can have him forever. Nowadays, getting a divorce is just as common as getting a new pair of

shoes. So be careful. He may fall in love with another woman one day and leave you like a wasted pile

of leftovers," Eleanor warned Annie in a threatening tone. She was burning with jealousy, and she

couldn't help but wish bad things to happen to Annie, that Rain would stop loving her one day and

make her life miserable. Besides, she didn't think that Annie had the power to tame a playboy like Rain.

Rain might have been fooled and bewitched for now, but it wouldn't last forever. They might seem

happy now, but it could be destroyed overnight. There were so many other beautiful women out there

who still kept their eyes on Rain's every move. These women didn't have morals and wouldn't hesitate

to try and seduce Rain even though he was already married. It would be easy for Annie to lose Rain.

"Thank you for your friendly warning. I will be careful. I know that these immoral women are always

lurking nearby. Sometimes they're just standing in front of you." Annie had an easy and carefree smile

on her face while saying these words. She was still calm and collected, as if she wasn't affected by

Eleanor's words at all. And this infuriated Eleanor to no end. She felt like she was playing a mono-

drama, and it was humiliating as hell. She was so furious that she wasn't able to catch the subtle jabs

that Annie was throwing her way.

"Huh. Stupid woman." But Eleanor still acted cocky and arrogant though she was aware that she had

already lost to Annie. She raised her chin up and walked away from Annie with a proud look on her

face. She intentionally knocked her shoulder into Annie which nearly made the newly married girl fall

down. This was just how Eleanor was. She was vicious, and just too proud to ever admit defeat,

especially to a seemingly ordinary woman like Annie.

Though she was nearly knocked down on the ground, Annie was still not angry. There was no use in

being angry with a woman like Eleanor. She was nothing to her, and she didn't want to waste her

precious time on somebody who was so trivial. No matter how Eleanor screamed and shouted rolling

on the floor like a spoiled child, Annie knew that she had won. Now, her life was just perfect. She had a

loving husband who cherished her with all his heart, and two kids who were both beautiful, well

mannered and smart. Besides, her career had started to take off. She just wanted to focus her mind on NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

all the good things that were happening in her life.

Annie wasn't familiar with the Ke family, and she didn't know anyone who belonged to it. So when she

was invited by someone named Eugenia to meet, she felt curious about who she was and what she

wanted from her.

"Hello. I am Annie An. I am very curious about the purpose of this meeting. Is there anything that I

could help you with?" Annie asked in a friendly tone as soon as she sat down. She cut to the chase

and wanted to know what she was here for. At the same time, she was watching the woman who was

sitting in front of her. She looked like a bold and smart woman who was not afraid to do anything. And

this intrigued Annie. Why did this woman want to see her?

"Hello Annie, my name's Eugenia. I am the second daughter-in-law of the Ke family," Eugenia

introduced herself while sizing up Annie as well. In her mind, Annie seemed like an ordinary and naive

woman. She didn't appear to be from a wealthy family of rank. So, she felt that she had nothing to

worry about.

"Oh. You are from the Ke family. But you seem to have invited the wrong person. I am not familiar with

that name and I don't know anyone in your family." In fact, Annie had heard of the Ke family, and she

had also asked her husband about them the other day because she was curious. From what Rain told

her, besides Tiana, there was not a single person in that family with a good reputation. So Annie didn't

want anything to do with them. To be honest, she did not even want to be in this meeting now.

"No. You are the one I wanted to see. Annie An, right? I heard that you got pregnant with that bastard,

Rain's kids and had two, before you even got married. Am I right?" Eugenia glanced at Annie with

disdain evident in her eyes. For her, Annie was just a small jewelry designer, nothing more. She had

nothing to be afraid of. She wasn't rich nor famous, and she only had Rain behind her, which didn't

amount to anything. That was the reason why she didn't care about her manners and the way she

chose her words. She hated Rain, and of course she didn't like the woman who gave birth to Rain's

kids either.

"Please be careful with your words. That's my husband you are talking about," Annie said in a stone

cold tone. She was furious at Eugenia's attitude, but they were in a public place right now, so she didn't

want to cause any drama. She hated it when anyone said any bad things about her husband or anyone

she cared about. Who was this woman to call Rain a bastard?

"Ha! Funny. A shameless bitch asking me to be careful of my words. That's a first time." Eugenia kept

saying these vicious and hurtful words to insult Annie and her family. Her behavior didn't fit in with the

way she dressed or her status. To be honest, she was way more like the shameless bitch between the

two of them.
