Chapter 349 Cursing at the Scumbag
“I’m tired. I’ll borrow your bed to sleep for the night.”

Melanie didn’t say anything else and simply jumped into the bed in Annie’s office and got under her blanket.
Annie didn’t want to see her being on her own and got up as well, hugging her. “Let me accompany you.”
“Don’t worry about me. Get back to work.”
“Forget about work. None of my plans are usable tomorrow!” Annie said angrily.
The next day, Melanie was sneezing and had a fever. Annie was very nervous because she knew that Melanie caught a cold from the rain last night.
But she couldn’t find any medicine despite searching high and low. “Wait for me. I’ll get you some medicine.”
“Don’t worry about it. I want to sleep a little more. Go to work,” Melanie said sleepily.
Looking at the time, Morgan Group’s tendering had already started. But looking at Melanie’s pale face, Annie decided she was going to show Jeffrey what she was made of using this chance!
“Alright. Wait for me. I’ll get some medicine for you when I get back.”
With that, Annie went out and put on some very vibrant makeup. She wasn’t going to take any of the people she was originally planning to take, and directly headed to Morgan Group’s building with her purse.
Morgan Group’s tender for the marketing had already started a while ago and the seven other companies who participated in the tendering had already given their presentations, leaving only the Snows.
The Snows were originally the third in line to present, but they hadn’t arrived even when the last company was done with their presentation.
The staff had asked a few times if they should wait, but William’s answer was the same.
“Wait!”
Just as all the bidders were getting impatient, Annie finally arrived in her high heels. But she was alone and she didn’t even have her laptop with her. She simply walked into the meeting room and glared angrily at Jeffrey, who was sitting in the middle.
William looked at her and asked, “Ms. Snow, do you need to connect your computer to present your tender?”
Annie let out a chilling laughter and said, “No need!”
“Fine. We won’t need slides for the proposal presentation if you choose to do so. Please,” William said respectfully.
“I don’t have any proposals today. That’s because the proposals from my company are meant for humans and not for animals!”

The moment Annie said that, the entire crowd was shocked.
All the bidders looked at her like she was a madwoman, but she was not afraid at all. She stared at Jeffrey with her eyes that had thick, black eyeliner drawn on. “To think that you can sit here and decide like a man without showing any signs… You’re really the top player when it comes to people’s emotions! You’re also the top scumbag for toying with others’ feelings!”
Annie instinctively shouted loudly to the tenderers who were waiting for the results outside as well as the staff from Morgan Group who were watching. “Be careful, all of you! With a scumbag like this as their leader, Morgan Group is simply something beautiful on the outside with nothing on the inside!
“No matter if it’s working with them as a partner, or working for them as an employee, all of you should think things through! Maybe he’ll commit a crime so bad that it’ll ruin your moral compass!
“I hereby announce that the Snows are giving up on this tender! I must be blind for signing up earlier to tender for something like this!”
With that, Annie immediately turned around and wanted to leave. William was so angry that he quickly walked over to stop her. “You’ve overstepped your boundaries, Ms. Snow!”
“Ha! They say that the pet dog follows after its master. A scumbag won’t have a dog that’s any better!”
Annie waited for William to argue back as she continued, “I don’t want to talk to you. What? You want to stop me? Or do you want to get others to beat me up? I’m here prepared! If I’m not down in ten minutes, the Snows will come up here and fight to the end!”
“Let her go.”
Jeffrey said without even turning around.
William put down his arms as he gritted his teeth and Annie flipped her hair and intentionally let it hit his face
before leaving.
Everyone outside was staring at each other, wondering what the source of her ire was. Could there be something between Annie Snow and Jeffrey? No wonder he told everyone to wait for her…
“Boss, Annie is over the line!” William was furious when he came back. He suppressed his emotions when he
spoke.
But Jeffrey didn’t raise his head and simply frowned very deeply.
From how agitated Annie was and how hurtful her words were, it equated to just how hurt Melanie was when she looked for her last night. He was feeling so distressed over her that he didn’t even care about other
people’s guesses and defamation.
Jeffrey hadn’t closed his eyes since last night, as the same moment kept on replaying in his mind. All he could
see was how she turned around in determination…
He had only realized after that night that she had already entered his heart sometime somewhere, and all he
could think of was her…
He didn’t have the chance to explain to her that he didn’t treat her as a replacement. He had already given up

“Boss… Should I tell everyone to stop the news from…?”

William hadn’t even said anything else when Jeffrey suddenly got up and cut him off. “Prepare the contract. We’re going to Snow Group.”
“To… Snow Group?” William was stunned.
