The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife

Chapter 295 The Wrights Of Skyking City

"How would she dare to tell us her real identity?" Jacob scoffed. "If we find out about her, she won't be able to deny a thing."

"You...” Anna was enraged. "Who's trying to deny it? I have nothing to do with whoever Joseph and Luke are!"

"Is that so? Tell us your real identity then. Otherwise, your conscience is just as guilty," Jacob said faintly.

It was the easiest method of reverse psychology but Jacob's impassiveness was grating.

Anna stomped her foot and spat, "What's so hard about that? I'm proud of my family. I'm Anna Wright! A s for my identity, the Wrights from Skyking City, have you guys heard of them?"

"Who knows if you're making things up? There are so many Wrights around. Who knows which Wright in Skyking City you are?" Jacob retorted.

As if realizing something, Julian looked alarmed.

He asked directly, "The Wrights of Skyking City? You mean, the Wright family?"

There was a wash of pride on Anna's face. "That's the one! My father is George Wright and my older brother i s Oliver Wright. Do you still think that I'll be bought over by some Joseph now?"

George Wright and Oliver Wright? What did these two names represent?

Jacob and Susan never paid much attention to the field, so both of them looked stumped.

Julian turned serious, however. "Is what you say the truth?”

"Of course," Anna answered like she was troubled. " You'll know after checking. It’s just that once your men do it, I'll probably be taken back."

Anna felt even glummer as she spoke.

"It's been nearly a month since you’ve been away and you still don't want to go home?" A sonorous voice rang at the door right after Anna spoke.

"Who is it!” The two guards sprang into action once they saw the man who suddenly appeared.

The man smiled, dealing two casual blows at the back of the guards' necks and both men collapsed on the floor in a heap.

Julian’s eyes widened slightly at the scene. Both his guards were the best in their work in the country, but they could not even take one strike from the mysterious man. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Oliver!" There was a smidgen of panic in Anna's gaze when she looked at the man. "Why - why are you here!"

Yikes! She was prepared to be taken home when she exposed her identity but - but not so soon!

It was Anna’s elder brother! Julian blinked, quickly coming to terms with what just happened.

If he was the one, the bodyguards could not be blamed then.

"General Wright," Julian addressed him faintly. "You can let us know that you’re coming in. No need to get into practice."

"Hands are faster." Oliver came in with a smile.

He had a short haircut with a healthy tan. It was frosty winter, but he only wore a shirt, and his toned build was visible.

Susan was surprised when she saw Oliver and pulled Julian to her while whispering her question, "Julian, General Wright?"

Julian nodded and explained to her softly, “There are one commander and ten generals in the military currently. General Oliver Wright before us here is the youngest general in the nation. Also, the only commander Anna mentioned just now is Marshal George Wright."

Julian felt a little speechless from his reply.

Anna was actually a Wright.

The Wrights were incredibly influential presences in the country's military. Anna Wright was, in relative, a notable young miss and she came all the way to Ningcheng City to become a caretaker? What was

more, they bumped into her too?

What on earth was happening...

Allowing Julian to finish his explanation, Oliver then waved at Anna. "Still standing there?"

Anna scampered over with a fawning grin. "Oliver... aren't you on a mission abroad? Why are you suddenly back?"

Oliver cracked a smirk at Anna's toadying mien before he answered, "Mission completed. Of course I'd come back. I heard that you ran away from home and planned to look for you but found a group of people investigating you in secret. With the clues, I arrive here in Ningcheng."

Julian could not help arching a brow. Those people Oliver had referred to were probably his men. He had sent professionals, but it was obviously child's play to the Wrights. Not only could he not seek Anna's background, but her family came to him instead.

"Oliver’s the best!" Anna cheered obsequiously.

Oliver smiled and asked pointedly, "Anna, were you mistreated during this period of time? Tell me. I'll avenge it for you. We, Wrights, are never taken advantage of.”

Anna could not help glancing toward Jacob.

The man creased his brows. "It's really not you who betrayed Susie?"

How was Jacob still asking this question at this point i

n time?

Anna erupted again. "Of course it's not me! Who else i n Canada could possibly buy a Wright over? You stupid brain. Why can't you figure it out yet! Do you intend to kill me out of anger?"

Jacob pressed his lips together, but there was a tinge o f delight that crept up from the bottom of his heart.

It was not Anna - it really was not her. Anna was not a second Jenny - she did not lie to him. With this realization, Jacob felt inexplicably lighter.

"Do you admit your fault now?" Anna glared at the man.

"I do," Jacob answered easily.

"Then what should you do?" Anna asked, preening.

Jacob gave it a thought and said, “Sorry."

"Just sorry?” Anna glared at him again.

Jacob mused and took out his checkbook with a serious face. "How much do you want as compensation?"

"You - you..." Anna was out of words fuming. "Why would I want your money? Can't you have more sincerity!"

Wronging her like that - she would accept it if Jacob even just slathered her in toadying words, but an aloof sorry?

Jacob looked at Anna in a loss, not knowing what the girl actually wanted.

Anna was speechless. She was wrong - she should not have hoped for a log to be struck with a realization.

"Never mind. Help Dumpy get a medal in the decathlon and I'll forgive you," Anna said weakly.

"Sure," Jacob agreed seriously. "Other than this, I owe you a favor. If you need my help in the future, just mention it."

"Remember what you say!" Anna’s eyes twinkled.

"I will." Jacob nodded. 1

"Then I..."

Anna was going to say something out of excitement but Oliver knocked her head weakly. "Others are still here, you know!"
