Chapter 1379:
Annabel lifted her eyes to Herman. “So what’s the plan p>
Just then, the office door swung open. Herman seized the moment and stood, blocking Annabel from view. To anyone watching, it would look as if they were caught in an intimate moment.
The moment Cedric stepped inside, he froze at the scene before him. A flicker of surprise crossed his face, and he couldn’t help wishing he’d discreetly taken a photo at the door instead of barging in unannounced.
His sudden entrance startled the two of them. Annabel’s gaze snapped to the doorway, her expression turning icy.
“Do you not have the courtesy to knock?” she demanded.
“I did knock…” Cedric lowered his eyes at once, stammering, “I brought your coffee p>
As he spoke, Herman rose from his chair and headed out, tossing out a dismissive, “Boring p>
Cedric’s eyes shifted subtly. He had brushed off the rumors as nonsense, but now he had seen enough to believe them.
Keeping his composure, he set the coffee on Annabel’s desk and left quickly.
Annabel rested her cheek against her hand and looked at the fragrant cup. The faintest smile touched her lips.
Later, during the lunch break, Cedric managed to slip into the office without being noticed.
“Ms. Hewitt?” He tapped lightly and peered inside the quiet office before stepping in. “Ms. Hewitt p>
He called a little louder, scanning the room.
When he saw the empty coffee cup on the desk, a smirk tugged at his lips. He turned toward the adjoining rest area and found Annabel asleep on the bed.
Relief washed over him, and he straightened.

He had slipped sleeping pills into her coffee, ensuring she would pass out after drinking it. That gave him the chance to secretly film inside her office.
Unfortunately, he had missed the opportunity to capture footage of the man who had been there earlier.
Cedric stepped into the rest area and looked down at the sleeping Annabel. A lecherous grin spread across his face.
“So the cold, untouchable act is just a façade. Who would’ve thought this is what your private life looks like p>
Spotting a phone on the bedside table, curiosity stirred. He tried to unlock it, hoping to find something useful. After several failed attempts, his patience snapped. He tossed the phone aside and turned back to Annabel.
“This kind of opportunity shouldn’t be wasted.” Smirking, he pulled a hidden camera from his clothing and positioned it carefully. Then he began to undress.
Just then, Annabel’s phone chimed with an incoming message.
Cedric jerked in surprise, glanced at the screen, then dismissed it.
As he reached for Annabel’s collar, her eyes fluttered open.
Cedric went pale, caught off guard, with no plan for this sudden twist. Gritting his teeth, he lunged for Annabel’s wrist, trying to pin her down.
