Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den
Chapter 178 The Mysterious Mr.
Anne walked into the house with brisk steps, with a gentle smile on her face towards the Wilsons. After a brief and cordial greeting, she hurried upstairs and returned to the private space that belonged only to her.
There was a familiar and reassuring atmosphere in the room. Anne walked straight to the closet, her fingers gently sliding over the rows of hangers with exquisite clothes, and finally stopped at a seemingly inconspicuous corner.
She squatted down and pulled out a small box from the bottom of the wardrobe. There was an exquisite copper lock on the box, which made it particularly eye-catching.
Anne took the key out of her pocket and inserted it into the keyhole gently. With a slight "click", the box opened.
She slowly opened the lid of the box, and inside lay an old-fashioned mobile phone. Although the surface of the phone looked a little old, it still flashed a faint and firm light.
Anne took a deep breath, as if to cheer herself up, and then she dialed the phone number that she had already memorized.
The phone rang only a few times before it was picked up. A deep but powerful voice came over: "Hello?"
"Sir," Anne addressed him respectfully, with a barely perceptible hint of nervousness and anticipation in her voice.
"Yeah." The other party responded simply, as if waiting for her next words.
Annie calmed herself down and began to report: "I met with Helian Minxiao today, and he clearly expressed his desire to cancel the engagement."
There was a mixed feeling in her tone, including worry about the plan and uncertainty about the future.
There was silence for a moment on the other end of the phone, and then a calm and steady voice came: "Don't worry, Annie. Your task is simple, which is to skillfully provoke conflicts between the Wilson and O'Reilly families at the right time and let them fall into the vortex of fighting. And you only need to be the observer and guide."
Anne listened carefully, and gradually she understood. She nodded, and although the other party couldn't see, her tone was full of determination: "I understand, sir. I will follow your instructions."
However, a moment later, a trace of worry appeared on her face again: "But, sir...what if the real Anne suddenly comes back? I...I'm afraid my identity will be exposed, and all our efforts will be in vain."
There was a chuckle from the other end of the phone, and that chuckle seemed to contain endless confidence and calmness: "Annie, you don't have to worry about this. The real Annie can no longer return to this world. You are Annie now, the protagonist of this story. You just need to do your role well, and leave the rest to me."
Hearing this answer, Anne's doubts instantly disappeared.
She felt an unprecedented power surge in her heart, which was the confidence and determination for the future. "I understand, sir. I will do my best and will not let you down." She answered firmly.
After hanging up the phone, Annie carefully put the phone back into the box and locked it again. She stood in front of the window, staring at the night outside, her heart filled with unprecedented determination and courage.
She knew that no matter how many unknowns and challenges lay ahead, she had to move forward bravely, because her destiny was closely linked to all of this.
……
As night falls, the Wilson Mansion is brightly lit, with warm light filling every corner.
In the hall downstairs, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson were quietly waiting for something. From time to time, they looked towards the stairs, where they could hear light footsteps.
Anne had just come back from outside, looking a little tired. She hurriedly greeted Mr. and Mrs. Wilson and went upstairs as briskly as a deer.
Looking at her daughter's back, Mrs. Wilson shook her head gently, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said to Mr. Wilson beside her: "This child is still so impatient, and she doesn't know how to eat something before going upstairs."
After that, Mrs. Wilson turned and walked towards the kitchen, thinking about what to prepare for Anne.
She knew that Anne had been busy in the castle all day and must not have had time to eat properly.
So she asked the chef to prepare some light and easily digestible food, hoping that her daughter would enjoy the meal after coming down.
Soon, an enticing aroma wafted from the kitchen, which was the delicious food carefully prepared for Anne.
Mrs. Wilson carried the tray herself and walked up the stairs gently, fearing to disturb the tranquility upstairs.
She pushed open Anne's door and found her daughter standing at the window.
"Annie, dinner is ready, come down and eat." Mrs. Wilson's voice was gentle and loving, like a spring breeze.
Anne turned around, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She quickly responded, put her phone aside, and followed her mother downstairs.
Beside the dining table, the plate of steaming food was emitting an attractive luster, as if welcoming her arrival.
After Anne sat down, she couldn't wait to start enjoying her dinner.
Every bite of food satisfied her taste buds perfectly and also comforted her tired body and mind.
Mr. Wilson sat aside, watching his daughter eat silently, his eyes full of love.
Finally, Annie put down her cutlery and sighed with contentment.
Seeing this, Mr. Wilson asked, "Annie, how was your visit to the castle today? Did you get along well with Helian Minxiao?"
Anne's face changed slightly when she heard this, but she still plucked up her courage and told her parents everything that happened in the castle today.
From the grandeur of the castle, to her first meeting with Helian Minxiao, to the subtle interactions between the two later, she missed nothing.
When talking about Helian Minxiao's mention in the car that he wanted to cancel the engagement, Annie's voice unconsciously lowered.
She looked up at her parents, her eyes full of anxiety and worry. After hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson's faces suddenly became gloomy.
"This O'Reilly family is really going too far!"
Mr. Wilson slammed the table angrily, his eyes flashing with anger, "Originally, this marriage was obtained by them, but now they want to regret it. This is simply outrageous!"
Mrs. Wilson also held Anne's hand tightly, giving her silent support and comfort: "Annie, don't be afraid. We in the Wilson family will not let you suffer any injustice. This engagement is not something they can decide on."
Anne felt a warm feeling in her heart as she listened to her parents' words. She knew that no matter how the outside world changed, her family would always be her strongest support.
She looked at her parents gratefully and said softly, "Thank you, Mom and Dad. I will face this bravely."
Although the atmosphere at the dinner table was solemn, the hearts of the family were closely connected because of this common belief.
