Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U

Chapter 404

Chapter 404 Anaya Stays With Joshua

Cecilia had already come. Anaya could do nothing but make Cecilia feel annoyed, so she prepared to leave.

"Cecilia, sorry to bother you to take care of Mr. Maltz. I will go now."

Cecilia was eager for her to leave and waved at her irritably.

She was about to leave when Joshua suddenly said, "Don't..."

He couldn't speak clearly at this time, and neither Anaya nor Cecilia could understand what he said, but they knew he was telling Anaya to stay.

Tears welled up in her eyes when Cecilia saw that Joshua couldn't even speak.

She held back her tears and said to Anaya, "Anaya, Joshua was injured because of you. You should stay and take care of him.

"I don't ask you to do anything for him. Just stay here with him."

To be honest, Cecilia didn't like Joshua being so humble.

But he was a patient now, so Cecilia could only do what he liked.

Anaya hesitated for a while and then nodded and stayed.

She sat in the ward for the whole night. At two o'clock in the morning, she could not help but grovel on the bed to have a rest and gradually fell asleep.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the anesthesia passed, and Joshua could barely speak.

A mobile phone was vibrating on the bedside table. Joshua did not want to wake Anaya up, so he asked Cecilia to give him the phone.

Joshua originally wanted to hang up, but when he saw the caller, he hesitated. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Just a second before the call ended, Joshua picked up the phone.

Hearst's voice came from the other end of the line. "The person who sent the flowers said that you were not in the office this morning. Where did you go?"

Joshua's eyes darkened as he said, "Anaya is next to me."

Hearing his voice, Hearst was a bit vigilant for a moment. "Where are you?"

Joshua looked at Anaya who was lying on the bed and said, "She is on my bed."

"What?"

Without waiting for Hearst to speak again, Joshua hung up the phone and unlocked her phone with Anaya's finger. Then he blacklisted Hearst.

When Anaya woke up, she felt someone staring at her.

She didn't know when Joshua woke up. He was lying on the bed, looking straight at her.

Seeing that she was awake, he said, "There is bread on the table. If you are hungry, you can eat it."

Anaya had just woken up and did not have much appetite. She shook her head and said, "No. I am not hungry now."

"I got someone to prepare new toiletries for. They are in the bathroom."

"Thank you."

Anaya was not nice to Joshua on normal days and was harsh when she talked to him.

Today, they got along so peacefully, which made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

She stood up, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Thank you for last night."

It was the first time that Joshua had seen her thank him so sincerely. He was also a little uncomfortable and restrained his temper, only nodding at her thanks.

After Anaya washed up and came out, she saw that her bag had been sent back and was now on the cabinet next to the bed.

She took out her phone and looked at it. There were only a few missed calls from Tim.

She called back and asked about Mark's situation.

After they left last night, Mark was sent to the police station and was still detained, waiting to be dealt with.

Anaya briefly explained what had happened and asked him to send the urgent work to her emails. She had to put away some unimportant jobs.

It was quite convenient for young people to work on the line. Anaya asked someone to send her notebook over, so she could still handle her job.

Tim agreed and then asked, "Mr. Dutt, Mr. Helms asked someone to send something over this morning. Should I put them in your office or..."

"Put them in the office."

"Yes."

"And don't tell him what happened to me last night."

"Yes."

The police came over at noon. They took Joshua's injury appraisal and left

after a simple investigation.

Many things happened to the Maltz Group recently, and Joshua couldn't go back to work, so Cecilia had to take over the job for the time being.

After lunch, Cecilia left.

Anaya and Joshua did not have any common topics. Most of the time, they

just kept silent.

When Anaya was dealing with work, she could sense that Joshua was

looking at her.

She pretended not to notice it and focused on her work.

In the afternoon, the nanny delivered the food.

Joshua couldn't sit up. He wanted to ask Anaya to feed him, but when he

met her emotionless eyes, he asked the nanny to feed him.

Anaya was already annoyed when he forced her to stay here.

If he asked for more, maybe she would leave.

After dinner, the nanny packed up the tableware and left.

Anaya intended to go to the corridor to digest the food, but Joshua stopped

her and asked, "How are you and Hearst recently?"

Anaya didn't want to discuss these matters with him, so she replied perfunctorily, "We're good. Didn't you see me buy a watch for him the day

before yesterday?"

"That watch was given to Winston by Aracely." Joshua directly exposed her.

"I saw it on Winston's Timeline yesterday."

Anaya was not embarrassed to be exposed and replied, "Alright."

Joshua was dissatisfied with her attitude, but he said patiently, "Anaya, I

know you are breaking up with Hearst.

"If you don't want to be with him, you can come back..." "Joshua, that's enough," Anaya interrupted him. She was not as sharp as

usual, but she sounded cold.

"Didn't you hate me in the past? Now you keep pestering me. Don't you feel

embarrassed?

"You are the president of the Maltz Group, don't always do such things to

degrade yourself.

"If you want to find another young lady, there are plenty of women in Boston. Don't put all your eggs in one basket."

Joshua smiled, his face pale. "But what about you? Aren't you putting all

your eggs in one basket?

"He was going to marry someone before, and you still want to be with him."

"That's a fake marriage, and I know the reason."

She did not like Hearst lying to her, but she did not allow others to slander

him.

"It's just an excuse. No matter the reason, he still did it. In the past, I gave you the cold shoulder because I was deceived by Lexie. Since you can forgive him, why can't you forgive me?"

"He lied to me, but at least he was good to me and did not cause any substantial harm to me. You're different. You've harmed me a lot."

Joshua was speechless and did not speak again.

Anaya thought for a moment and said, "Don't investigate Hearst anymore

about Roland's matter. There won't be any results."

"Why are you so sure?" As soon as he asked, Joshua reacted, "Is Roland

your person?"

Anaya's silence was considered a tacit agreement.
