Chapter 257 He Is Jealous
Anaya felt that there was something off about him, but she
could not tell what it was.
“Do you want to join us? We haven’t ordered yet. ”
“But…” Yarden wanted to say yes. But at the sight of Hearst, who was staring at Yarden, Yarden changed his words right away, “Kim and I have already booked a table.”
At that moment, Kim appeared behind him. “The waiter told me that there weren’t any tables available now. Let’s dine
elsewhere.”
Yarden turned around and looked at Kim with resentment.
He thought, you’ve just made me contradict myself!
Kim was perplexed.
Then Kim noticed Anaya and Hearst. “Ms. Dutt and Mr. Helms.
It’s been a while.”
Hearst nodded, and Anaya smiled, “Mr. Simpson, since there isn’t a table for you, how about joining us?”
Kim agreed without hesitation.
Kim brought Yarden out here tonight to meet a client. But the client stood them up. Worse still, the table that they booked in
advance had been occupied by others, and Kim was very
hungry currently.
Then Kim sat down beside Hearst, leaving Yarden no choice but
to sit next to Anaya and opposite Hearst.
Every time Yarden looked up, he saw Hearst’s cold face.
It scared Yarden shitless.
Then the waiter came over with the menu. After looking at the
four of them for a second, the waiter handed the menu to
Hearst.
“Sir, Madam, I’m so sorry. Since there is only one menu left, you’ll have to share it.”
“It’s fine.”
Then Hearst handed the menu to Anaya right away. “What do you want to eat?”
Anaya took the menu, flipped through it, ordered a few main dishes, and approached Yarden, asking, “What do you want to
eat?”
The two were a bit close, with their elbows touching each
other.
Noticing Hearst’s gaze, which was cold, Yarden hurried to take the menu over. “I’ll take a look myself.”
“Mr. Helms, now your turn,” After ordering some spaghetti, Yarden said, handing the menu to Hearst.
Yarden couldn’t help but call Hearst in a respectful way.
After finishing ordering, Hearst returned the menu to the waiter and wanted to say something to Anaya.
However, Anaya was chatting with Yarden and did not pay
attention to him at all.
With his eyes darkening, Hearst made no secret of his displeasure.
Meanwhile, Anaya kept giving Yarden her undivided attention. “Yarden, when did you come back? Why didn’t you tell me? That way, I would have gone to pick you up.”
“Spring break started a few days ago. And since Kim needed to
come here on business, I decided to come with him so that I
can meet you up.”
As Yarden spoke, he, jittery, looked at Hearst secretly.
It was not that Yarden was timid.
Hearst was simply too frightening.
Right now, Hearst struck people as if he was cuckolded right on
the spot
Yarden swallowed and said, “Mt. Helms, can I change my seat
with you? I want to sit next to Kim.”
Noticing that Yarden was behaving tactfully, Hearst softened a bit and nodded indifferently.
However, Anaya stopped Yarden. “Just sit here. That way, you can tell me more about your life abroad. I mean, you can still talk to Kim, right?”
Despite feeling uneasy, Yarden bit the bullet and remained
where he was.
Soon, the waiter began to serve the dishes.
And since Anaya hadn’t seen Yarden for a long time, and she
was in a good mood now, she, instead of eating her steak, kept talking to Yarden about what Yarden had encountered at
college.
And hearing Yarden talk about the blind date that his family arranged for him, Anaya smiled playfully, “You just came of age, and yet your grandmother is already demanding a relationship…”
At that moment, Anaya felt that her foot was rubbed against a
bit.
She thought it was just an accidental kick from Hearst and thus
wanted to retract her foot. But her ankle was hooked around.
It seemed that Hearst was teasing her as the rub was slow and
continuous.
Her heart jolted, and she looked up at Hearst, who acted as if
