Chapter 547
However, Rowan would not let Annie in. Annie Khew Rowan was home, but she got no response after ringing the doorbell multiple times and making countless calls. No one opened the door or answered her phone calls.
Rowan must’ve been disappointed by what happened last night.
“Rowan, I know you’re at home. You should be able to hear me. Indeed, I did not think it through. I saw no way out of our situation and agreed to their plans. Considering our years of friendship, I’ll be endlessly thankful if you can vouch for me in front of Joe. This is the last time I’m seeking you out. I’m sorry.”
Annie walked away. When she looked back, she found that the door remained closed. It probably wouldn’t open anytime soon. She bit her lip and left.
After she was gone, the door swung open. Rowan stood at the door. His lips twitched as he said, “What had she been doing then? She ignored what I told her yesterday. She’s suffering the consequences of her actions now!
Anníe returned home after visiting Rowan.
The Silvers hadn’t yielded anything from their discussion. After spending a day on it, they were exhausted. One by one, they left.
When Annie got home, Grayson and Sabrina were the only ones there.
Upon seeing her, Sabrina hurried forward and asked impatiently, “How was it? Did Stevem agree to help us? He will ask Skylar to vouch for us, right?”
Annie hadn’t slept a wink last night. After the mental exhaustion of the day, there wasn’t a bit of strength throughout her body. She said weakly, “Steven likes me. He also believes me. Coincidentally, Skylar will be meeting him tonight. He’ll probably speak for us then.”
“Probably? What do you mean ‘probably‘? He has to put all his might into helping us out of this crisis. He shouldn’t think about being with you if he can’t even do that. He doesn’t deserve you at all,” said Sabrina.
Annie felt frustrated when she looked at Sabrina. She seemed to think that this was justifiable. Hadn’t she faced reality?
This time, they were punching above their weight.
Grayson’s expression was one of utter dismay. He asked, “Is Steven confident? Will Skylar listen to him? I heard that they aren’t biological siblings. Will these circumstances make the problem more difficult to handle?”
Annie said worriedly, “Dad, I can guara you that I’ve done my best. I’ve done everything I could do. As to the conclusion, I don’t know how things will turn out.

“As for Skylar… She might’ve prepared a few things that will make Steven waver. Perhaps he’ll never want to see me again. In addition, will Joe halt his revenge on us for Steven? If yesterday hadn’t happened, he might’ve given us some wiggle space for Skylar. Now…”
She’d done her best to fix things. Annie tried to make Steven believe that everything was a misunderstanding brewing from the past.
