Xiao Chen's voice carried an authority that brooked no refusal.
On the other end, Anniel's face had gone pale.
She knew she hadn't yet emerged from Xiao Chen's shadow, but she hadn't expected that, after so long and simply through a phone conversation, Xiao Chen could once again exert such immense pressure on her.
The tone of Xiao Chen made Anniel feel as though she was still in those days when she was under Xiao Chen's thumb.
It could be said that Xiao Chen had become Anniel's persistent nightmare.
What made it harder for Anniel to accept was that this nightmare...
also made her develop special feelings.
This feeling was strange and sick!
However, at this moment, Anniel did show her unwillingness to submit!
"Xiao Chen," she said defiantly, "what right do you have to command me? I... I'm not afraid of you!"
Although Anniel claimed she wasn't afraid, anyone could hear the tremble in her voice.
