Chapter 437: Chapter 439: How dare you, actually deceiving me!

David Benington withdrew his hand, his eyes filled with mockery and anger. He slapped a cup off the desk to the floor, stood up, and glared at Annie Lawrence with rage-filled eyes. Between clenched teeth, he spat out, "Is your concern for me just a trick with a fake pregnancy?"

"What fake..." Initially, Annie didn’t understand and tried to defend herself. But after a few seconds, her face suddenly changed, and her eyes widened in shock.

"David, you..."

She was too surprised to think straight.

She was rendered speechless for a moment.

David’s feelings for her had initially started in bed, mostly physical.

The reason he broke up with Joanna Lawrence and chose to be with her, even planning to marry her, was all because of the child in her womb.

Now, the child was gone.

Fury at being deceived made him feel nothing but disgust and hatred for Annie at this moment.

His face turned icy cold as he stepped forward and grabbed her by the throat, sneering, "You have some nerve lying to me, Annie Lawrence! Do you know the consequences of deceiving me?"

He always saw himself as a sharp man.

But he’d been played by the woman beside him.

He couldn’t bear it.

"Cough, cough, David... let... let go..." Annie’s throat was being squeezed, her breathing cut off, and her face turned a deep red as she coughed violently.

She reached out a trembling hand to try and pry David’s grip off her throat.

Her resistance only further infuriated David.

David tightened his grasp and hissed, "You wretch! If it wasn’t for you, Joanna and I would never have split up."

"Cough, cough, let... let me go..." Annie’s pleas grew desperate, her eyes rolling back in pain and fear.

She struggled, screaming in terror and kicking her legs, one of her knees landing a fierce blow on David’s groin. His face turned white with pain as he released her.

After a series of crashing noises...

Annie crashed into a coffee table beside her and fell heavily to the ground.

As she fell, her stomach hit the ground first.

Then, she felt a tearing pain.

With a loud bang...

An employee outside the office heard the commotion and rushed in.

Entering the office, they saw Annie lying on the floor and David, pale-faced and clutching his groin. The worker froze in shock.

After a few seconds, the employee came to their senses and hurried to David, asking, "Mr. David, are you alright...?"

Oh my god.

Had Mr. David been fighting with Ms. Joanna?

And it appeared to have been quite a fierce fight.

The employee was utterly shocked.

Because everyone in the Galaxy Agency knew that David and Annie had a good relationship, and he treated her very well.

It was hard to imagine him even raising his voice at her, let alone fighting with her.

David was angry and embarrassed, not wanting his employees to see such a humiliating scene. He bellowed at the approaching workers, "I didn’t tell you to come in! Get out!"

The employee was startled.

Facing David’s angry, bloodshot eyes, they quickly turned around and headed for the door.

After taking a few steps, the employee suddenly widened their eyes, their gaze falling on the collapsed Annie on the ground. They cried out in fear and trembling, "Ms. Joanna... what’s wrong with you?"

David could tell from his tone that something was wrong. Suppressing his pain and anger, he slowly turned his head.

At once, his face changed dramatically.
