Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U by Hazel Ramirez novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 Back on the Right Track

Joshua did not move. His face darkened. “I have no time to waste.”

In the past, if Joshua showed such an expression, Anaya would not dare to make a fuss anymore.

Anaya was afraid that if she provoked Joshua, he would abandon her.

So every time they quarreled, Anaya would quit.

Every time, Anaya gave up her pride and dignity to beg for forgiveness from Joshua.

Anaya was a member of the Dutt family. She was born with a silver spoon.

After she and Joshua got married, Joshua destroyed all her dignity and pride.

Anaya used to be afraid of divorce.

Now that she was determined to leave Joshua, what was there to be afraid of?

“Mr. Maltz, have you thought it through? Waste a few hours now, and you‘ll save your time for the rest of your life.”

Anaya‘s words made Joshua uncomfortable.

Joshua sized her up for a long time, but he realized she was not lying or joking.

Anaya really wanted to divorce him.

The frustration in his heart grew.

Joshua remained silent for a long time. Anaya lost her patience and provoked him, “Mr. Maltz, say something. Why aren‘t you divorcing me? Are you in love with me?”

Joshua was proud. He thought it was a shame to fall in love with a foolish and unreasonable woman like Anaya.

Just as Anaya finished speaking, Joshua‘s face darkened.

“Anaya, stop dreaming.”

Did he like her?

Unless he was crazy!

“So, let‘s get a divorce.” Anaya changed to a comfortable position on the sofa.

Joshua tried his best to calm himself down. He did not want to argue with Anaya. “I‘m busy with work these days.”

“Let‘s go through the formalities this Friday. You have to sign the contract with the Dutt family that day. Let‘s talk about it on the way to get the divorce.”

Joshua clenched the pen in his hand tightly. “Alright, since you want a divorce so badly, you‘ll get what you want!”

“Thank you very much, Mr. Maltz. By the way, I heard that you got Lexie out of the customs blacklist?” Anaya smiled brightly.

If Anaya remembered correctly, in her previous life, Lexie returned to America at this time.

It was the start of Anaya‘s nightmare.

This time, Anaya had to leave before Joshua and Lexie tortured her.

“Why? Are you trying to frame her again?” Joshua frowned.

“Just a casual question.”

Joshua didn’t deny it. So, that was true.

Joshua and Anaya got married, but he had been secretly helping Lexie get back to the country.

Tsk.

What a perfect husband.

“I wish you and Lexie a happy life together,” Anaya stood up and said.

Then she turned and left without any hesitation.

Joshua continued to work. But he couldn’t focus on the documents in front of him anymore.

After leaving the Maltz Group, Anayà received a call from the hospital.

“Ms. Dutt, Mr. Dutt has a medical check–up in the afternoon. If you’re available, please come over to keep him company.”

“Alright, I’ll leave now.”

After hanging up, Anaya drove to the hospital.

She did not go to see her grandpa Adams Dutt yesterday because she was busy contacting the lawyer to deal with the divorce. Also, she did not dare to face Adams.

A year ago, when the Maltz family encountered difficulty, she begged Adams to lend two–thirds of the company’s liquidity to help the Maltz family overcome this crisis.

The 800 million dollars saved the Maltz family, but it destroyed Adams and the Dutt family.

Not long after Adams transferred that money to the Maltz family, a project of the Dutt family encountered a problem and was in urgent need of funds.

Because the Dutt family had too many debts, the bank was no longer willing to provide loans. The Maltz family could not repay the money for the time being. Anaya could only watch the Dutt family decline from prosperity.

When the Maltz family returned the money, the Dutt family declined a lot. They used the money to pay off their debts and fill in the capital loopholes of their projects.

Adams was hospitalized because of a heavy workload, so he temporarily handed over his company to Anaya’s uncle, Frank Dutt.

In Anaya’s previous life, after Adams was hospitalized, he did not come out again.

The day Adams died, she was not by his side.

Lexie lost her job that day and had a bad mood. To comfort Lexie, Joshua didn’t come home that night.

Anaya was supposed to visit Adams, but she turned back halfway and went to the bar to drown her sorrows.

When Anaya woke up the next day, she was told that Adams had passed away.

According to the doctor, Adams accidentally fell off the bed when he got up to get some water. Then he suffered from a

heart attack.

Because of such a fall, Adams was gone.

Anaya often wondered if Adams would die without that fall.
