Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U by Hazel Ramirez

Chapter 286 She Resists His Approach

Anaya acted calm. She answered, "I helped someone snatch the

Maltz Group's project. He just came to question me. I drove him away."

Hearst stared at Anaya silently. His eyes were dark.

Anaya felt a little uncomfortable with his gaze. She stiffly shifted her gaze away to avoid looking at him.

"It's getting late. I'll go in first. You should go to bed too."

After saying that, she was about to walk inside.

"Ana, you said you wouldn't lie to me," Hearst called out to her in a low and calm voice.

Anaya paused for a moment. With her back to him, she laughed dryly and said, "I didn't lie to you."

Even though she didn't turn around, she still felt his questioning gaze.

Hearst was still looking at her.

Anaya tightened her grip on the door handle. Then she entered the room and closed the door behind

her.

After Anaya entered her room, Hearst was still standing at the door.

She was keeping a secret from him.

This secret was related to her ex-husband.

Hearst had mixed feelings about it.

"Hearst, didn't you say that Anaya is back? Where is she? Why didn't you call her over so that we could

have a drink?"

Martin came out of the room with a cynical and evil smile on his handsome face.

Hearst turned around and walked into the house. He did not put on his dangerous look on purpose, but

he looked grimmer than ever.

"Change of plan. You and Samuel should leave."

"Did you have a fight with your girlfriend?" Martin noticed that Hearst was upset.

Hearst did not answer Martin's question. He walked into the study room and closed the door behind

him.

Samuel was sitting in the living room, unaware of what had happened.

"I just came back today. Didn't he agree to have a few drinks with me? What happened?"

"He had a fight with his girlfriend." Martin looked at Samuel lazily and tilted his head towards the

outside door. "Let's go.

||

Samuel was a little dissatisfied. "I just opened this wine and didn't drink much..."

"Then why don't you go to the study and ask Hearst to join you?" "Forget it."

He couldn't afford to annoy the mad Hearst.

Samuel stood up and went downstairs with Martin. Only then did he remember why he came here

today.

"Oh no, I forgot to tell Hearst about Jaylon Malpas!"

Upon hearing that name, Martin became a little more serious.

"What happened to that guy?"

"He's Mimo Group's new president in America. We were on the same flight today." As Samuel spoke,

he was a little angry. "Fuck! If we were not on the plane, I really wanted to punch him."

Mimo Group and Prudential Group were opponents. They were on par when they were in Canada.

They were business opponents and often had conflicts.

Samuel and his people had once lost to Jaylon, so until now, he still wanted to get back at Jaylon.

Martin advised, "Hearst is in a bad mood. Don't cause him any trouble."

Samuel whispered, "I won't. Just kidding."

Martin continued to walk forward as he said, "Let's find a place and have a few more drinks."

Samuel laughed. "Sorry, since Hearst doesn't want to talk to me, I will go home to my girlfriend. If I go

home too late, she'll be mad."

Martin was speechless.

Samuel also wanted to go home to his girlfriend...

Anaya was worried that she would run into Hearst, so she went out half an hour earlier than usual.

After the lunch break, Tim brought two documents to Anaya.

"About the case at No. 4 District of Waltcester, the victim is not willing to see us. We are still trying to

negotiate with the victim.

"We have already located the jewelry businessmen that Mr. Maxwell mentioned.

"After they got the scam money, they forged records of escaping to other countries. They did not go

abroad. They just went to the neighboring city.

"I can bring them here tomorrow."

Anaya looked at the documents in her hand with an indifferent look. "These people are quite bold. They

even dare to forge exit records."

They were bold and capable.

They must have some connections as they could stay safe after running the big scam.

"Bring more men with you tomorrow to bring those guys back.

Don't let them escape."

"Yes."

After work, Anaya went back home and planned to bring Sammo out.

She planned to stay in the company for the next few days. After she

was done with her work, she would move back, saving a lot of trouble.

She returned home after dinner, trying to dodge Hearst as in the morning.

Just as she led Sammo out of the house, she happened to run into Hearst.

He seemed to have heard something and was waiting for her right at the door.

When Sammo saw Hearst, the dog immediately barked and rubbed against Hearst's leg.

Hearst lowered his eyes to look at Sammo held by the leash. Then he asked Anaya, "Where are you

going?"

"The company's a little busy these days. I want to stay in the company for a few days. As no one takes

care of Sammo at home, I will bring it with me."

Anaya looked sincere.

Hearst examined her face. In the end, he did not ask anything. He said lightly, "I will take care of him.

You can focus on your work."

Anaya said, "It's okay. I can take care of him on my own. I miss him when I'm at work."

Hearst did not argue with her. Instead, he directly took over the dog leash.

His fingertips were a little cold, just like his current expression.

He lowered his head to look at Anaya. His eyes were dark and calm.

"Ana, I give you enough space and trust. Don't let me down." Anaya lowered her head and did not say

anything.

Hearst reached out and caressed her delicate and soft cheeks. Then he lifted her face.

He leaned over and gave her a peck on the lips.

He opened his mouth and said in his bass voice, "Don't lie to me. I don't like it."

Anaya's heart trembled as she heard what he said. She wanted to explain, but in the end, she didn't

dare to say it.

She didn't know what to say.

She wished she could keep the secret forever. She didn't want him to know what happened that night.

She wanted nobody to know what humiliation she had suffered.

She bit her lower lip and said, "Sorry, I want to move out for a few days."

"Why?"

Anaya was silent.

What she had done the most these days was keep silent.

Hearst was a little unhappy. He bent down and bit her lips. Then he went deeper. Anaya struggled a

little at the beginning, but soon she forced herself to calm down.

Being close to him reminded her that she was filthy, so she was somewhat resistant.

However, she did not want Hearst to know it, so she could only try her best to pretend that she was

enjoying his kiss.

But the two of them had kissed so many times. Hearst knew her well.

She resisted his approach.

She even wanted to move out of there.

At the thought of that, Hearst was depressed. He was so upset.

He wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed Anaya roughly and deeply.

The dog leash fell to the ground. Sammo raised its head and looked at the two lovers with dark eyes. It

whispered, "Woof?" When the kiss ended, Anaya felt that she was going to be suffocated. Her legs

were numb so she could only lie in Hearst's arms and panted.

Hearst stroked her hair and said in a low voice, "Ana, I will give you three days at most.

"If you don't come back in three days, I will go and find out what you are hiding from me.

"Then I will deal with it in my own way."
