Chapter 406 Maybe You Can Calm Down There
Hearst could tell that Anaya was talking about the matter that he lied to her twice before.
"Ana, I have apologized for lying to you before." He sighed heavily and held her hand, saying, "I won't lie to you again.
"I had no choice back then..."
Seeing that Anaya glanced at him, Hearst bit his tongue and changed his tune, "But it won't happen again. Even if I have no choice again, I will tell you first.
"And you are the same. You must let me know if anything happens to you. Otherwise, I will be worried."
When Hearst heard Joshua's voice on the phone today, he was uneasy and worried, and it didn't feel well for him.
He wanted to contact Anaya and make sure that she was safe. However, Joshua blocked the news, and Tim refused to tell him anything. It took Hearst half a day to find Anaya's location and then rushed to this hospital.
When he arrived, he was blocked outside by Joshua's people.
Hearst had no choice but to summon his men to make their way in.
As soon as he came in, he saw Anaya feeding Joshua some water.
They didn’t look intimate, but Hearst had been worried about Anaya all day long. What he saw magnified the fear in his mind, causing him to forget all his manners. He grabbed Anaya's wrist and only wanted to take her away immediately.
Anaya raised her eyebrows as if saying, "So you still know that you should be worried?"
After clearing the air, Anaya looked at Joshua lying on the bed. "How come I did not know that you have used my phone today, Mr. Maltz?"
Joshua shrugged and shamelessly said, "I picked up the phone because I didn't want it to wake you up this morning."
"Then why did you lie to Jared and block his number?"
"Because I wanted to."
Hearst's face darkened slightly when he heard this. Samuel directly scolded, "Can I kill you now? Because I really want to do it right now."
Everyone present was speechless.
Joshua pulled a long face and looked at Hearst as he said, "Your dog is still so annoying."
"Sorry for that. Samuel never learns how to get along with bastards."
The atmosphere became tense because of Samuel's words, and Hearst's words only added fuel to the fire.
Joshua and Hearst looked at each other for a while. He was lying on the hospital bed, while Hearst got a group of men behind him, which made Joshua look weaker.
In the end, Hearst withdrew his gaze first and once again held Anaya's hand. "Let's go home."
He did not say that he would send Anaya back to her place. He was deliberately vague, talking as if Anaya was still living with him.
Anaya did not notice it, but Joshua did.
If Anaya left today, it would be difficult for him to see her again while he was in the hospital.
Although Joshua had already decided to let go of Anaya, he still couldn't watch her leaving with another man.
"She can't leave."
Joshua raised his hand and tried to grab her sleeve, but because Anaya stood far away from him, he couldn't even touch the corner of Anaya's clothes.
He put down his hand and raised his voice. "I was injured last night because of Anaya. She has to stay here and take care of me."
Since Joshua risked his life to save her, Anaya did owe him a lot. So she could not refuse him right away.
Just as she was wondering what to do next, she heard Hearst coldly say, "Mr. Maltz needs someone to take care of him. Samuel, bring some men and stay here to take good care of Mr. Maltz."
