CEO's Revengeful Queen novel Chapter 24

She asked Annetta, "Hello, what can I do for you?"

"I'm looking for Ethan Harris."

"May I know if you have an appointment with Young Master Ethan?"

Annetta shook her head. "No."

"I'm sorry, you can't meet Mr. Harris without a prior appointment." The receptionist sneered secretly. Women came looking for Young Master Ethan every day. Even the affluent daughters in Toronto had to make a prior appointment to meet him, and this was the first time she had seen such a hideous woman. 

Annetta did not ignore the contempt in the receptionist. She glanced at Howard asked, "Howard, could you help me out here?"

The receptionist was startled. She had not expected this unattractive woman to know Young Master Ethan’s personal assistant. Had she offended Howard by refusing her? Just as she got worried, Howard said, “I can't, Miss White, this is a company policy. Not everyone can meet Young Master Ethan on the spur of the moment. “

"Oh."

Howard thought that Annetta would back off after he had said this. But she just shrugged and said, "No matter, I'll wait for him here." 

After that, she asked the receptionist to direct her to the restroom. 

Carrying her things, Annetta said her thanks and walked towards the direction the receptionist had pointed. 

"Howard, who is that woman? Do we need to inform Young Master Ethan?" asked the receptionist after Annetta left. 

"She's just an idiot." Howard said, "Just leave her in the hall if she wants to wait." 

"Okay!" The receptionist agreed without further question.  

Annetta brought her gown to the restroom. The Harris Group was so wealthy that they furnished even their restroom in gold and jade. There was also a large dressing room and shower room. 

Annetta sighed contentedly as she examined her reflection in the mirror. This was a lot better. She used to make herself look hideous every day, hoping that her appearance would scare Ethan away. These attempts, however, had been in vain. 

Ethan had never minded her appearance, even though she had made herself look as hideous as possible. It was as if no matter how she looked, she would still be the only person in his eyes.

The man was still very possessive over her. By doing this, she felt like she had wasted the natural beauty she had inherited from her mother. 

Annetta applied some light makeup on her face. After she was done, she hitched up her skirt and left the restroom. 

All was quiet in the Harris Group, and the receptionist was dozing off at her desk. Without disturbing her, Annetta walked to the sofa and sat down quietly. 

She waited for one hour. 

Soon, she heard the sound of the elevator and the man walked out surrounded by several senior executives.
