Chapter 31 A Sleepless Night
That night, Anaya didn‘t sleep well.
In the bizarre scenery, everything that had happened in her previous life seemed to have appeared in her dreams. And the scene finally stopped at Joshua’s disgusted expression.
Joshua raised his hand and gave Anaya a gentle push.
She fell into the cold water in the winter and felt a bone–piercing pain.
The barbed iron net trapped her and slowly tightened. Her chest seemed to be pressed with a boulder. And it was so heavy that she couldn‘t breathe.
She felt sharp pain all over her limbs and bones. She wanted to struggle, but her limbs were tied.
She wanted to call for help, but her throat seemed to be choked by something, She couldn‘t make a sound.
Despair and powerlessness almost made her collapse.
Just as Anaya was about to completely lose her breath, the familiar herbal fragrance wrapped around her.
She fell into a warm embrace, and she felt like a person who had suffered weightlessness returning to the ground. Her heart suddenly stopped pounding.
In the latter half of the night, Anaya slept soundly.
The faint fragrance of medicinal herbs lingered around her while making her feel comfortable and relaxed.
Early the next morning, when Anaya woke up, Hearst had already bought breakfast.
Hearst took Anaya in and even woke up early to bring breakfast for her. Anaya was somewhat embarrassed.
“You can have breakfast now. No need to wait for me.”
Hearst read the newspaper in his hand with a gentle expression. “We‘ll have breakfast together.”
Anaya didn‘t want Hearst to wait for so long, so she quickly washed up and walked to the table.
There were pieces of bread and two bowls of warm porridge on the table.
“Did you add sugar to the porridge?”
Anaya wanted to know if Hearst had put sugar into the porridge.
She loved sweet food.
“Yes, a lot.”
Hearst‘s taste was quite similar to hers.
Anaya took a seat and glanced at Hearst.
The latter held a silver spoon carved with flowers and ate slowly.
Although it was just a bowl of ordinary porridge, it felt like Hearst was enjoying his meal at a high–class restaurant.
Alter breakfast, Hearst sent Anaya home.
It rained all night last night, so the sky was clear. And the sunlight was more dazzling than the previous days.
Anaya waited for the elevator and turned on her cell phone by the way.
Last night, Joshua called her on someone else‘s phone. And she felt annoyed, so she turned off her cell phone directly.
The text messages sent by dozens of strange numbers on her cell phone were all asking for her location. But the one who sent them seemed to become more irritable. And the one even began to use Riven Group to threaten Anaya.
It was Joshua‘s usual style.
Anaya could imagine Joshua‘s angry appearance through those words.
It seemed that the glass of wine she had drunk last night had thoroughly infuriated Joshua.
But she didn‘t regret it.
The Dutt family‘s road was almost blocked by Joshua. No matter how angry he was, he couldn‘t let the Dutt family suffer even more
Anaya deleted the texts one by one and found that there was a text from Aracely, who also wanted to know Anaya‘s location.
After deleting all the texts, Anaya called Aracely.
“Anaya, you finally called me. I thought you were kidnapped by Joshua.”
