Chapter 84 I’ll Buy it for You
Joshua frowned when he heard this.
When they were in the car, Bria had been telling Lexie about the “Dew.” He felt annoyed, so he casually said that he would buy it for Lexie and asked them to go back to discuss it.
Why did Bria understand it this way?
Hearing Bria’s words, Anaya raised her eyebrows. “Is that so? Then let’s see who bids higher later.”
Bria was so confident. Anaya was hesitating whether to bid too and make Joshua pay more later.
Anaya was lost in thought when Hearst, who had been quiet, spoke lightly. “You want to have that dress?”
“Huh?” Anaya turned to look at him. “Yes, I do.”
She was not interested in this dress, but she still wanted to raise the price.
“I’ll buy it for you.”
Joshua, who was opposite him, instantly put on a grim look and stared at the two of them.
He had no intention of buying this dress.
However, now, he changed his mind.
Anaya knew that Hearst always kept his word, so she hastened to say, “No need. I’ll buy it myself.”
Hearst did not respond.
Bria said in a mocking tone, “Anaya, do you think I don’t know the current situation of the Dutt family? Adams has collapsed, and Frank has been missing. At such a tense stage, how can you still have the money to compete with us?”
“To fight for dignity. It’s worth it.” Anaya deliberately provoked her. “If you bid 160 thousand dollars, I will bid 1.6 million dollars. If you bid 1.6 million dollars, I will bid 16 million dollars. I am very curious how much Ms. Dunbar is worth in Mr. Maltz’s eyes?”
Since Bria had already said that Joshua would buy the dress no matter how much it cost, what was there to be afraid of?
Anaya could just raise the price as much as possible.
Anyway, she wouldn’t be the one to pay in the end.
Bria shouted, “Of course it’s priceless! Lexie is the person my brother cares about most!”
“Really?” Anaya looked surprised. “Since she is priceless, why did Joshua give up on her for 800 million dollars a year ago?”
Bria became speechless, and Lexie’s expression also darkened.
Bria tried her best to save her face. “At that time, the Maltz family borrowed as much money as possible. In the end, 800 million dollars were missing. If they couldn’t get that sum of money, all the other efforts would be in vain. There would be more losses other than that…”
“Alright, I already know how much Mr. Maltz loves Ms. Dunbar,” Anaya interrupted her and said lazily. “I wish the priceless love of your brother and your future sister-in-law can last forever.”
Then, Anaya and the two people beside him left.
Bria held Joshua’s hand and complained, “What kind of attitude is that? Anaya is so mean. We don’t owe her anything. Joshua, you…”
Joshua glanced at her indifferently. “Do you think you haven’t done anything wrong to her in the
past year?”
Bria was lost for words and shut up.
Many people gathered at today’s business banquet. They were all in the same circle. So, it was inevitable to socialize.
A few rich young ladies asked Anaya and Aracely over to have a chat. They were all women, so Anaya did not bring Hearst.
“Mr. Helms, excuse me.”
Hearst complied and watched her walk away.
“Tsk, enough staring. If you keep looking at her like that, you may scare her.”
Hearst turned around, Martin walked out from the crowd and smiled at him, revealing a frivolous
and sinister demeanor.
Hearst looked at him and asked, “Why are you here?”
*One of the models on the show today is my girlfriend.”
“Your last girlfriend was a female artist.”
“That was a long time ago.” Martin stopped in front of him. “I seem to have seen Joshua just now.
Aracely nodded and called Winston. Only then did she know that Winston was still working
*I have work to do, so I can’t leave,” Winston said in a gentle tone. “Have fun tonight.”
After Aracely hung up. Anaya asked her, “What did Winston say?”
“He’s still working in the company.” Aracely put away her phone. “Anaya, let’s go to the show stage It’s boring here.”
A waitress came over and asked, “Are you Ms. Dutt?”
