Chapter 435: Chapter 437: She Feels Very Insecure

Once, he found Annie Lawrence very delicate and in need of cherishing.

He felt a strong urge to protect her.

But now, his heart was filled with nothing but disgust and rage.

The thought of being fooled by such a woman, to the extent of breaking up with the woman he loved for her, filled David Benington with hatred.

This despicable woman!

She even tried to deceive him.

This time, he wouldn’t be fooled again.

Annie Lawrence saw clearly the cold, piercing hatred in David Benington’s eyes, her heart skipped a beat in fright and she hurriedly said, "David, that IP address is real, it was someone from our Lawrence family who posted it."

"But, I wasn’t the one who made the post."

"It was Mom."

At this critical moment, Annie Lawrence calculated even against her own mother, pushing all the blame onto Rose Liall: "The person who made the post was Mom. She has always disliked Joanna. After we got together, she was always concerned that you would get back together with Joanna. So, she made that post."

"She thought that once Joanna’s reputation suffered, you would not consider reconciling with her."

"I have already called to scold her, she knows she was wrong and she said she would never do such a thing again. David, I know this incident has caused some harm to Joanna, if she is still angry, I can go and apologize to her."

Today, David Benington frightened Annie Lawrence a little.

Suddenly, she felt a sense of insecurity.

She faintly felt that David must have found some evidence, so she quickly admitted about the IP address.

To show her sincerity.

"Apologize?" David Benington looked at her coldly for a while before finally speaking.

However, his voice was as indifferent as his gaze.

"Right, right." Seeing that David Benington was finally willing to engage with her, Annie Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to her usual tactics, speaking in a innocent and weak tone, "Even though Mom did it, she ultimately did it for me, so I can’t shirk my responsibility."

"If this incident has affected Joanna, I would feel extremely guilty."

"I know Joanna must be very angry, and it’s understandable that she would trace the IP address. But..." Annie Lawrence bit her lip and lamented, "Joanna shouldn’t have had people speak ill of us."

"She called me a mistress, suggesting that I intervened in your relationship. Isn’t this indirectly calling you a scumbag? David, you should quickly make a clarification on this, or else, netizens will crucify us."

Firstly, Annie Lawrence admitted her mistake, lowering her stance.

Next, she complained about Joanna Lawrence.

She knew that David Benington would definitely take action to resolve this issue.

After all, it involved his reputation too.

He cared about his face a lot and would not allow Joanna Lawrence to accuse him of infidelity.

After she spoke, Annie Lawrence wiped the corner of her eye, waiting for David Benington to soften his attitude and comfort her.

She waited for a few seconds, but heard no response.

Curiously, she raised her head.

Upon meeting David Benington’s cold, almost icy, dark eyes, her heart skipped two beats and the sense of unease and anxiety once again flooded her mind: "David...."

David Benington was really out of character today.

On a normal day, he would have already been soothing and comforting her in a tender manner, embracing her and whispering comforting words to her.
