Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U by Hazel Ramirez novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349 How About We Get Married Next Month?

On New Year's Eve, Adams gave all the servants the day off to celebrate the holiday. With the help of Anaya and Hearst, Adams was busy preparing for a New Year's Day party at home.

Adams was excited about the New Year's Day party because he could spend time together with his family. Adams and Anaya spent the whole morning decorating the house.

Adams had been talking about his young days all morning.

Anaya and Hearst, by Adams' side, listened quietly to what Adams had to say.

In the afternoon, Anaya and Hearst were busy in the kitchen for a New Year's Eve dinner. Holding Sammo in his arms, Adams sat on a chair in the garden to get some sun.

The weather forecast showed that it would snow at night. It had been cloudy since 3 p.m.

Adams walked slowly into the house, with the chair in one hand and Sammo's leash in the other.

Adams didn't seem to have enough strength to drag the chair, so Anaya immediately went up to Adams and helped him move it. Anaya complained, "Grandpa, if you need to move anything, just let Jared or me know. We can help. You're just discharged from the hospital. If something happens to you again, I..."

Surprisingly, Anaya's complaints didn't upset Adams at all. Adams smiled, "Ana, you're becoming more and more like your grandma. She nagged me all the time, as you did just now.

She used to teach me how to cook. Every time I accidentally burned something, your grandma could nag me for a whole day..."

Suddenly, the light in Adams' eyes disappeared. "I didn't like her nagging me, but I kinda miss her complaints now."

Anaya's heart was filled with sorrow when she thought of her deceased grandmother.

Anaya sent Frank and Aria to prison. Mark and Vivianna were off to somewhere else.

Adams and Anaya were the only two people living in the Dutt's house.

Hearst wondered why Adams and Anaya stood in the doorway and didn't move. "Is the chair too heavy for you?" Hearst walked over.

Hearst lifted the chair up while asking.

Hearst thought that Anaya didn't move because the chair was too heavy.

"No." Anaya quickly pulled herself together and replied, "Grandpa and I were just making small talk. Let's go in."

Adams did a lot of physical work today. Anaya took Adams back to his room to rest. Anaya went downstairs, and she saw Hearst in the kitchen.

Standing next to the counter, Hearst looked charming but steely. He was holding a silver knife.

Hearst wore a grey turtleneck with his sleeves rolling up. Anaya could clearly see Hearst's forearm muscles as he cut vegetables. Hearst's muscles were big and strong.

Hearst was silently cutting vegetables. Just being by Hearst's side and watching him was enough to give Anaya a sense of security.

Anaya walked up to Hearst and hugged him from behind.

Hearst didn't stop what he was doing. "You aren't a clingy girl. What happened?" he asked faintly.

"No, I'm not. It's just a hug." Anaya pressed her cheek against Hearst's warm broad back. "Jared, you'll always be with me, right?" Anaya sounded lonely.

As Anaya finished her sentence, Hearst stiffened. "Why would you ask that all of a sudden?" he said hoarsely.

"Adams talked about my grandma just now. I missed her and my

parents so much." Anaya hugged Hearst even tighter. "Jared, how

about we get married next month?"

Anaya would put a leash on Jared if she could.

A spiritual leash.

Anaya desperately wanted to keep Jared by her side so that Jared

couldn't leave her.

Hearst fell silent.

Anaya sensed that something was wrong, so she walked up to

Hearst.

Anaya bent down and got under Hearst's arm. She stood between

Hearst and the counter. "Why aren't you saying anything?" Anaya

looked up at him.

"You don't wanna marry me?"

Anaya thought that it was only a matter of time before Jared

married her.

However, Hearst's silence made Anaya feel insecure.

Sensing Anaya's unease, Hearst comforted softly, "Sorry, I was

miles away.

Anytime you want."

Anaya thought that Hearst was suggesting something. "What do

you mean? Don't you wanna marry me?" she asked.

Hearst lowered his head and kissed Anaya on the forehead.

Anaya couldn't see Hearst's face, so she couldn't see the worry in

his eyes.

"Of course, I do."

Hearst had dreamed of marrying Anaya for years.

However, Hearst didn't know whether he should marry Anaya or

not.

"If you don't have a problem with that, we'll do it next week."

Hearst couldn't help but laugh. "But you just said we'll do it next

month."

"I changed my mind."

"Okay, I'm gonna talk to Adams about it tonight."

Anaya felt relieved after Hearst agreed to marry her. Anaya helped

Hearst in the kitchen in a good mood.

At 5 p.m., Jaylon arrived at the Dutt's house.

Because of the time difference, today wasn't New Year's Day in the

country where Jaylon's family lived. Therefore, Jaylon didn't spend

the day with his family.

Anaya waited for Jaylon at the door. Jaylon handed Anaya an

envelope as soon as he saw her. "This is what I promised you yesterday." Jaylon sounded indifferent.

The envelope didn't seem to have anything in it. Anaya didn't take

it from Jaylon.

"Mimo Group's equity?"

"No."

Hearing this, Anaya took the envelope from Jaylon and opened it. It

was a check in the seven-figure.

It wasn't a huge sum of money for Anaya, and she didn't need it.

Even so, she accepted it out of kindness.

Anaya and Jaylon walked into the house.

At that moment, Anaya heard someone talking in the room.

When Anaya entered the room, Hearst had just gotten off the

phone.

With a coat on his arm, Hearst wore a dark grey sweater and black trousers. It looked as if Hearst was about to leave.

Anaya asked, "You going out?"
