Chapter 2237 "Yes," Annalise replied.
"Cory, I'm hungry.
Let's go into the private room," she added coquettishly, clearly wanting to escape before Karina could reveal her past.
Karina saw right through Annalise's intentions.
Just as she was about to speak, Barlow beat her to it.
"Are you leaving now? Annalise, didn't you askfor my phone number?" Annalise stopped in her tracks and turned to Barlow.
"When did I say I wanted your phone number?" Barlow's tone was calm and flat.
"You fell into my arms intentionally just now.
Doesn't that mean you have a crush on me?" Annalise's face turned pale.

"How can you deny it, Annalise? This isn't the first tyou've tried to seduce my boyfriend!” Karina interjected sharply.
Annalise choked on her words.
"Karina, don't accusefalsely.
" "You know very well whether I'm accusing you falsely or not," Karina retorted, her eyes narrowing as she turned to Cory.
"Sir, I advise you to look into your girlfriend's past.
She's not known for her honesty.
There are security cameras around here.
You can check the footage to see what your girlfriend just did to my boyfriend.
Cory's eyes flashed with suspicion.
Remembering what he had see n when he entered the restaurant, he released Annalise's hand, his expression turning cold.
"Annalise, were you really seducing him just now?" Panic crept into Annalise's voice as she reached for his hand.
"No, Cory.
They're just trying to cause trouble.
We have issues, and they're slanderingon purpose.
" Cory stared at her, trying to discern the truth.
Karina sneered.
"Annalise, there are indeed issues between us.
So why don't you tell your boyfriend what those issues are?" Annoyance flashed in Annalise's eyes, but she quickly masked it with a look of victimhood.
"Karina, I know you're angry with me.

That's why you hateand try to slanderall the time.
But your brother and I have broken up.
Can't you let it go and stop slandering me?"
Annalise put on a pitiful expression, which almost made Karina burst into laughter "What a deceitful woman who is skilled at twisting the truth," Karina mused.
Before she could shoot back, Barlow stepped in, his arm around her waist.
"Buddy, as a man, I feel for you, having to deal with such a scheming woman he said, his voice calm and firm. "As my girlfriend mentioned, you can check the surveillance footage.
Facts speak Louder than words.
The camera must have captured everything clearly.
He continued, "You'd better cut your losses now because she's nothing e but trouble. She'll not only drain your money but also betray you in the future.
No man wants to be taken for a fool.
" Cory's face fell, and he briskly withdrew his hand from Annalise's grip.
