Chapter 1155:
“Alright.” Leonard smiled and nodded.
Erica and Cathy always made things difficult for Annabel, but it was bearable with Rupert there to protect her. Besides, Leonard believed his granddaughter was more than capable of dealing with those two troublesome women.
Annabel left the house and got into Rupert’s car. “Take me back to Water Moon Community. I’m a little tired and want to go back and sleep p>
“What’s wrong? Are you alright?” Rupert asked, concern tightening his voice.
Annabel gave him a small, polite smile. “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired p>
“Okay.” Rupert nodded and drove her back to Water Moon Community. After dropping her off, he returned to the Benton Group to work.
Just as Annabel was getting ready to fall asleep, Margo called. Was Joziah bothering Margo again? Confused, Annabel answered the phone. “Margo, what’s wrong p>
“Annabel, you have to come to the company and see,” Margo said, her voice tight with anxiety.
Annabel’s heart skipped. “What happened p>
“It’s Prince Herman. He’s making a huge scene…” Margo mumbled into the phone. “There are roses all over the company gate, a banner, and an etiquette team. He’s openly courting you. A lot of reporters are here, and Rory is arguing with him p>
“What?” A headache began to form behind Annabel’s eyes. What was Herman thinking? Hadn’t she made her stance clear?
“I understand. I’ll come deal with it right away,” Annabel sighed, irritated.
She arrived at the gates of Star Entertainment and saw that Margo hadn’t exaggerated—there were people everywhere. The entrance was surrounded by stunning blue roses arranged into elaborate patterns. In the center, several words stood out clearly:
The surrounding buildings were draped with banners, each one covered in declarations of love.

Herman truly lived up to his title as a prince, especially with a gesture this grand. But the more people gathered to watch, the bigger the problem became. Reporters swarmed Prince Herman, thrusting microphones toward him as they fought for an interview.
“Prince Herman, when did you meet Miss Hewitt? Was it love at first sight?” one reporter asked rapidly.
“Yes, exactly.” Prince Herman nodded without hesitation, leaving no doubt about his feelings. “I met Miss Hewitt at a banquet in France. I fell in love with her the moment I laid eyes on her. She is my goddess. I love her p>
“How romantic! But, Prince Herman, haven’t you heard Miss Hewitt is Mr. Benton’s fiancée? They’re holding an engagement ceremony next weekend. How do you feel about that?” the reporter pressed.
“Oh, I know.” Herman shrugged, a confident grin on his face. “It’s just an engagement. It’s not a big deal. As long as they aren’t married, she’s single, and I have the right to pursue her p>
Annabel heard him as she approached Star Entertainment.
Was he out of his mind? Hadn’t she made herself clear? She was Rupert’s fiancée, and they loved each other. What exactly was Herman trying to do?
