Chapter 2869: Chapter 2898: Just Abandon It Directly Then
"If I can’t live well, neither can she!"
"You’ve really lost your mind. Who do you think you are, do you think she is someone you and I can provoke? You think you can really harm her by getting a journalist to spout nonsense? Can’t you see which way public opinion is leaning on the blog?"
"What if she’s untouchable? Does that mean I should suffer silently under her oppression? It doesn’t matter who public opinion on the blog supports, as long as the people of the Heath family believe my words and see her as a loose woman, that’s good enough!" Annie Lawrence, maddened by David Benington’s words, retorted angrily. "As long as the people of the Heath family believes she had an affair with Frank Parker, they will surely get Ashton Heath to divorce her."
"David, aren’t you still wanting that wretch? If she divorces Ashton, won’t you have a chance? I have indirectly helped you, instead of thanking me, you use such an attitude to speak to me? I think the person who’s crazy is you!"
David Benington was silent for a moment.
Thinking that he was persuaded, Annie couldn’t help but sneer, "You’re indeed still wishing for that little wretch. But let me remind you, David, even if she divorces Ashton, she now holds the status of the daughter of the White family. She might not even look at you given your current status, even if she’s a divorced woman."
"Don’t forget, Frank Parker is also eyeing her. You are not the only man wanting to take over. Compared to Mr. Parker, you just don’t stand a chance."
"Annie Lawrence, shut up!" David became furious with her words, "Mind your own business! You’ve pissed off both the Heath and the Parker families. Frank Parker won’t let you off, neither will Joanna Lawrence and Ashton Heath."
"Also, I called you to let you know that our collaboration is finished. From now on, we won’t have any relation, don’t bother me again!"
After saying that, David hung up the call.
Listening to the hanging up sound from the phone, Annie’s face turned dark.
"David, you wretch. Do you think that by stating the collaboration is over, it will be over? You think by making a call you can clear your name? Keep dreaming!"
"If death is imminent, let’s die together!"

After David finished the call with Annie, he still felt uneasy.
Annie was the talent he had signed.
She was also the one he had planned to invest heavily in to establish her career.
Now, the talent he signed accused Frank Parker and Joanna of having an affair in an interview and even revealed Frank’s replacement affair.
Frank should be furious now and won’t let Annie off easily.
If it goes wrong, he might be implicated as well.
Thinking of Frank’s ruthless methods, David felt a chill run down his spine.
He didn’t want to take the fall because of Annie.
After thinking for a while, David felt the need to take steps to protect himself first.
Annie wasn’t of any use now and had gotten him into a lot of trouble.
Since she was a discarded pawn, it’s time to abandon her completely.

Parker Group.
David was brought to Frank Parker’s office.
Looking up at the man sitting in front of him with a gloomy face and an aggressive aura, the chilling sense of fear surged up again.
Taking a deep breath, he steadied his emotions and respectfully muttered a greeting: "Mr. Parker."
