Chapter 208 You Should Leave
Anneliese’s words made Mnie freeze at the doorstep.
45 Fres <b>Colna </b>
Mnie stared at her in disbelief. “What do you mean, barging into someone’s home? I’m <b>your </b>mom! This apartment belongs to the White Family too!”
She tried to push her way in, but Anneliese didn’t block her.
Reluctantly, she let Mnie bring the maid inside.
“Grandma left me this house. It’s been officially transferred into my name for ages. It is separate from the White Family,” Anneliese said, arms crossed.
Mnie plopped down on the sofa. With her legs crossed, she let out a sharpugh. “Isn’t she my mother–inw? If this house is separate from the White Family, do you really think she would’ve left it to you?”
Anneliese didn’t bother arguing. “If you’vee to im the house, hire awyer. They can sort out the ownership with me.”
She had already made a mess of the banquet, throwing the White Family into chaos.
Already annoyed, Mnie hade personally to see Anneliese. She expected Anneliese to feel touched and maybe even apologize.
Instead, Anneliese remained cold and unyielding. Mnie felt her temper re and almost mmed her hand on the table, but he remembered why she hade.
She took a deep breath, forcing her voice to soften. “Anne, I’m not here to take the house. I know about Zacharias‘ affair and that you’ve divorced him. You’ve got nowhere to stay–I wouldn’t dream of asking you for the house now.
“I just came to see how you’re doing. After seeing that you’re managing well… I can finally rx.”
Anneliese cut her off sharply. “I’m in a rush this morning. Breakfast isn’t ready, and I’ve got to head out soon. Just spit it out.”
Mnie hesitated, clenching her fists before speaking. “Thepany’s in trouble, Anne. There’s a five billion shortfall that needs covering fast.
“You’re close to Mr. Fullbuster–could you maybe smooth things over with the bank and get them to approve a loan for White Inc.?”

Anneliese knew Mnie didn’t ask for favors lightly, but she hadn’t expected her to be this bold.
She stared at Mnie in disbelief. “You’ve set your sights on me? Looks like the bank wouldn’t approve the loan anyway. Even so, why do you think Jonathan would be the gullible one to foot this bill?
“Jonathan and I are just friends. I don’t have that kind of pull. I can’t help you. You should leave.”
Her cold tone and firm stance made Mnie’s brows shoot up in frustration. “How can you say that! At the dinner, you were all over Mr. Fullbuster–everyone saw it! How is that ‘just friends“? The Fullbuster Group is worth a fortune. They even own a bank.
“Mr. Fullbuster is the heir. Getting him to approve five billion for White Inc. would be a single word from him! Even if you skip the bank, five billion from him would be pocket change!”
Anneliese let out a smallugh. “Even if that amount is pocket change for him, that doesn’t mean that he is a fool throwing money. Now, scram!”
“Why you! What good does White Inc.’s bankruptcy do for you? You’re already in your second marriage. Without our family backing, do you really think you’d have a chance to marry into the Fullbuster Family?”

Anneliese stepped forward and yanked Mnie along, pushing her toward the door. Mnie barely registered a word.
However, as Anneliese reached the doorway with her, the door swung open, revealing a tall, imposing figure of a man standing right there.
Mnie’s expression shifted instantly.
Anneliese froze momentarily. Then, she flushed, <i>a </i>mix of embarrassment and anger painting her features. <i>Jonathan’s </i><i>definitely </i><i>heard </i><i>what </i><i>she </i><i>just </i><i>said</i><i>! </i><i>I’m </i><i>so </i><i>busted </i><i>right </i><i>now</i>.

“Mr. Fullbuster… what are you doing here so early? Have you–no!”

Mnie’s expression twisted in shock, jumping to the wrong conclusion that Anneliese was living with Jonathan.
Before Mnie could finish, Anneliese mped a hand over her mouth and shoved her toward the door. She pushed Mnie and the maid was sent tumbling outside.
Then, she grabbed Jonathan by the arm and yanked him back inside.
With a loud bang, the door mmed shut behind them.
Outside, Mnie pressed the doorbell a few more times. After a while, realizing Anneliese wouldn’t answer, she fell silent.
Inside, the entryway was thick and awkward with silence.
After a long moment, Anneliese finally looked up at Jonathan, her voice tinged with embarrassment and frustration. “You… You heard all that, didn’t you?”
Jonathan didn’t try to hide it and nodded. “She is definitely sharp. She’s not even hiding her intentions.”
“I…” Anneliese’s voice trembled softly. “I’m sorry about that…”
