Money Only to Burn
Chapter 123



Although Annebelle was confused and suspicious as to why Mr. Dunn was suddenly so sharp and humble, she nevertheless agreed to the cooperation.


He asked them to sign


contract at FH Enterprises headquarters.


Annebelle is still wary of Mr. Dunn.


Anyway, this could be a trick. He could have pretended he wanted to sign the contract but had ulterior motives.


If they sign a contract at FH Enterprises, then he can't play tricks.


Annebelle was still thinking hard after she closed her call. He simply did not know why Mr. Dunn had suddenly changed in his attitude. This is so weird.


Never would she have imagined that it was Cyril who got the Hatcher Chambers to instruct Mr. Dunn to execute the contract.


As Annebelle went through the process, Cyril had finished preparing breakfast in the kitchen.


"Annebelle, no fast food or canned food. You have to be satisfied with the cereal. " He took out the cereal as he spoke, along with a glass of milk.


"Cyril, are you still dating?" Annebelle asked as she watched Cyril not have breakfast.


"Oh, I thought you might want a burger and some canned food so I was about to go out to pick it up." Cyril said as he walked out.


Annebelle laughed out loud but she was also deeply moved when she saw Cyril disappear from her sight.


This was the first time a man cared about her.


He felt overwhelmed.


"If only I could spend the rest of my life with him!"


Annebelle felt an indescribable happiness every time she was with Cyril.


This was something he had never felt before, even when he was a child.


On the other side of town, at FH Enterprises, in the Chairman's office, Conan Swift has arrived early in the morning.


He will set an example today.


He's gonna fire Annebelle Swift. He will be removed as the company's Assistant Director of Sales.


"Yvon, did Annebelle get into the office today?" Although Conan Swift has hired Annebelle Swift, he has never really appreciated her illegitimate daughter.


He gave her a position as Assistant Director of Sales.


With her networking abilities and skills, she is more than suited to become a Sales Director, even as the General Manager of a company.


"Mr Swift, Annebelle hasn't come to the office today." Director of human resources, replied Yvon.


"Ha, it looks like he's already gotten his wings strong enough for himself now. He didn't answer the call, didn't report for work. Who does he think he is?


"Well, don't blame me for setting things up right then and there." Conan Swift is expecting an explanation from Annebelle about what happened yesterday.


Instead, he disappeared without news.he was disappointed instead of playing.


He could not blame her for being heartless back then.


"Yvon, during a negotiation discussion between FH Enterprises and Annebelle yesterday, had an incident.


"In the process, people get hurt. Our company suffered a huge loss. That is why the board has decided..... "


Conan had not yet finished his sentence, his assistant Melody Fern rushed into his room with a reddened face.


"Mr Swift, Mr. Swift, chairman of FH Enterprises, Mr. Dunn is here. She came here specifically to see Annebelle Swift. "


Conan was about to blow up his secretary but when he heard that Mr. Dunn of FH Enterprises was here, he immediately suppressed his displeasure.


"Mr Dunn is here? In person? "Conan wasn't sure he heard it right.


Just yesterday, Mr. Dunn was furious that Annebelle had not cooperated with him regarding the deal and his bodyguard was beaten up by Cyril Woodley.


What made him come personally today to their office?


"Greet him in right away.


"I will personally greet him at the door and take him to the meeting room. "Conan is thrilled that there may be an opportunity to get the contract signed.


He personally ran into the office to meet Mr. Dunn.


Mr. Dunn is already waiting in the meeting room on the ground floor.


He's a little agitated.


He didn't think much about the failure to conclude the contract yesterday, after all the materials Swift provided, such as fabric, leather, wool and cashmere were easily obtained from other suppliers.


Never did she imagine that when she returned to the office, she received a call from Hatcher Chambers of DH Enterprises, asking about working with Swift Group.


Mr. Chambers has personally called to follow up on this deal and instructed that the person she should complete the deal must be Annebelle Swift.


Even if he had to kneel down and plead with her, he had to make sure she agreed.


If not done as instructed, DH Enterprises will withdraw all of its financial investments from FH Enterprises.


DH Enterprises owns fifty-one percent of FH Enterprises. They are the main shareholders.


If they withdraw from FH Enterprises, they will go bankrupt overnight.


This made him very worried.


Between losing her pride by pleading with Annebelle and bankruptcy, she prefers to lose her pride.


She called Annebelle all night but it made her more agitated and unable to sleep when she learned that Annebelle's phone had been switched off overnight.


Thankfully she managed to contact him this morning and he has accepted his humble apology.


Now that the time and location had been set for the contract to be signed, he was a little more relieved.


As Mr. Dunn was pacing the room, Conan walked into the room to greet him.


"Mr Dunn, how are you? Why did you come here personally? You should have called in advance so that I could come to the gate to greet you. "Conan greets Mr. Dunn.


"No, no, no problem at all. Oh, is Annebelle in the office?"


Even though Mr. Dunn was interested in Annebelle, she now completely lost interest or such thoughts.


All he wanted was to apologize, make the contract signed and leave.


"Annebelle's not in the office today. Is there anything I can help you with?" Ask Conan curiously. He wanted to know why Mr. Dunn was here today.


"Of course it's about our cooperation. Yesterday I was in a hurry so I forgot to sign the contract.


"I came early in the morning to apologize and to sign a contract that we didn't finish yesterday." Mr. Dunn sweats as he speaks.


He did not dare to tell Conan Swift the truth.


"really. Ah okay. I can sign a contract too. You don't need Annebelle to do it.


"It's the same anyway. Let's go upstairs. I still have a bottle of 1982 Lafite.


When Conan heard that Mr. Dunn had come to sign the contract, he was overjoyed.


He thought the deal was now in vain. More interesting is Mr. Dunn


the person who started to close the deal.


He was very surprised.


"No, no. You don't understand. It makes a difference to who I sign the contract with.


"If it wasn't Annebelle who signed


contract, then I can't cooperate with you." Mr. Dunn gets straight to the point.


He can't afford to beat about the bushes. He has no choice.


"It must be Annebelle?" Conan frowned.


What did Annebelle do to manipulate Mr Dunn into coming here specifically to sign a contract just with him?


"That's right! If Annebelle doesn't come and sign the contract, then I can't sign the contract either." Mr. Dunn repeated.


She did not dare to go against the words of Hatcher Chambers.


"Well, I get it. Please wait here, Mr. Dunn. I'll go quickly he's here. " Conan is quite realistic.


Since Annebelle is useful to him now, she is his daughter.


If he is useless, he will be expelled.


To Conan, it was very clear he was greedy.


Conan was still confused as to what was going on though.


"Annebelle's a pretty smart girl. He can manipulate Mr. Dunn into being so eager to work with ami. I just can't read it anymore.


"Although hey, he's quite useful to the company, so why not. Good to keep "


At this point, Conan decides to hold Annebelle for a while and overrides his plans of dismissal.


Back at Veluriyam Villa, Cyril, Ella and Annebelle had just finished breakfast.


"Cyril, that's so weird. Mr. Dunn called me this morning and wanted to sign a contract with me.


"I'm afraid he's playing tricks. Can you come to Swift Group's office with me?" Annebelle felt more confident that Cyril was with her.


With him around, there was nothing to fear.


"Of course, this is perfect. I'll represent DH Enterprises to get the stock transfer deal implemented." Cyril nodded his head.


Not bad


. Looks like Hatcher has tamed Mr. Dunn into a wayward person, eager to close the deal with Annebelle. That's really not bad at all.


Perfect for getting a share transfer agreement signed yesterday closed when he was in Swift Group.


Just in case, Cyril had made sure he placed DH Enterprises as the buyer of the shareholding, so in fact, he represented DH Enterprises in the stock purchase.


"Ella, before you get into the office today, wash all the dirty clothes from yesterday and sweep the floor." Cyril forgot to assign Ella before she left.


"I understand. All you do is command me like a servant." Ella pouted and said to him cross-crossed.


She looked threatening but since she had an adorable face, she still looked rather cute.


"It's okay Ella, I'll buy you a present on the way home when I get home from work. You're gonna love it! " Annebelle comforts her.


Cut Ella with a smile.


"You're so good to me. Not like Cyril. All he did was bother me"


Cyril shrugged his shoulders. "It's all for your own good."


Cyril had asked the car wash to clean and disinfect his car that morning.


There was hardly any smell of vomit from last night. They were soon on their way to Swift Group's office.


Annebelle was restless in the passenger seat en route to the office. He was nervous to meet his father. What's he gonna do to her?


After all, they did take Mateo Swift's shares from him. He must be angry. Is he going to fire her and kick her out of the house?


"Don't worry too much. Everything will be fine. I will be there to support you. "Cyril smiled and comforted him.


Seeing Cyril for some reason made Annebelle relax a little. That's absolutely right.


He was there for her.


Even if she was kicked out of the house, she could still stay with him.


The thought made Annebelle feel more comfortable and her mood improved instantly.


The car slowed down along the driveway to the Swift office building.


Everything seemed as usual when they arrived.


The only difference was that the receptionist immediately came to tell him this.


"Annebelle, Mr. Dunn of FH Enterprises has been waiting for you for a long time."


"understand. Thank ye. I'll be with him in a few minutes.


"Please tell my father that I'm here and have him send someone as a witness for the signature."


Annebelle wanted to make sure she obeyed the official process while making sure there was someone else in the room if Mr. Dunn tried to be funny.


"Mr Swift herself is already in the meeting room with Mr Dunn" replied the receptionist.


"That's great!" Annebelle did not expect her father would greet Mr. Dunn personally.


She's surprised.


Annebelle took Cyril to the meeting room on the ground floor.


When they pushed the door open, they


seeing Mr. Dunn happily chatting with Conan.


Annebelle was about to greet Mr. Dunn but he suddenly knelt down.


Annebelle was shocked and Conan was flabbergasted at what was going on. What's wrong with Mr Dunn!


What the hell is he doing?


The only person who knew what was going on was Cyril.


He has no power to hold back the hardness silently.


Looks like Hatcher threatened Mr. Dunn pretty badly.
