Chapter 245 Breakfast
It was a residential area near the apartment. Anaya looked up and happened to see a lighted window.
Several figures were reflected on the curtain, overlapping and snuggling, and it seemed that there were bursts of laughter.
The atmosphere was joyous.

There were myriad twinkling lights of the city, but none of them were lit for her.
Sadness welled up in Anaya’s heart and expanded, like a crack that stretched thousands of miles
across the barren and dry land, terribly deserted.
Anaya stood there in a daze. When she was lost in thought, someone suddenly approached her from behind, with a clear and familiar aura swept over her in an instant.
“What are you looking at?”
A deep and familiar voice sounded in her ear.
Her hand was held up.
The wide palm wrapped hers tightly.
Her hand, which was a little cold by the night breeze, instantly warmed up.
Anaya turned her head sideways and saw Hearst looking down at her.
The street lamps intersected, and Anaya’s reflection was in Hearst’s eyes.
“Nothing.” Anaya was stunned for a few seconds before she recovered from her thoughts.
Hearst didn’t ask more questions but just held Anaya’s hand and took it into the pocket of his coat.
“Go home now?” he asked.
“Okay,” Anaya responded lightly and then asked, “Why are you here?”
“Sammo ran out, and I came to chase it.”
It was not until then that Anaya noticed Sammo by Hearst’s feet.
The dog had a rare silence. it looked in a low spirit as if it had just been taught a lesson by its master.
“How did it get downstairs?”
Hearst’s cool expression changed a bit at the mention of this.
It was obvious that he had been angered by this dog.
“The little girl from the neighborhood went downstairs to buy a sandwich, and it followed her outside. When the little girl had just gotten her sandwich, Sammo snatched and ate it in one gulp.”
“Was the little girl crying hard?”
“Yes, her face was covered in tears and snot. The surrounding stall keepers were all scared away by
her.”
Anaya couldn’t help laughing.
It seemed that Hearst had a hard time coaxing the little girl.
No wonder he was angry.
“I’ll make breakfast for you tomorrow morning,” Anaya said on a whim. Perhaps, it was because.
she heard the interesting news related to food.
Hearst asked, “And lunch, too?”
“You’re pushing my luck.”
“Okay?”
“Uh… Okay.”
The next morning, Hearst walked downstairs with a lunchbox in his hand.
After sending Anaya off, he got into his car.
Hearst didn’t sit in the back seat today but in the passenger seat.
As soon as he got in the car, he placed the lunchbox on the mini desk between the front seats.
It was a very conspicuous position.
Jayden could not help but take a few more glances.
Jayden got a feeling that Hearst was showing off.
However, it was between the front seats and seemed to be the only place to put things. That seemed reasonable enough.
“Mr. Helms, is this lunch Ms. Dutt made for you?”
“Yeah.”
Hearst lightly responded and then added, “She got up at six this morning and started preparing it.”
Jayden carefully guessed at Hearst’s intention.
Why did Mr. Helms emphasize that it started at six?
