Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U by Hazel Ramirez

Chapter 215 1′ Protect You

After Anaya took a bath, she felt warm and much better. Her face became less pale.

She stood up from the bathtub and found that Hearst had not brought the bathrobe in.

Her long black dress had long been soaked, and she had thrown it on the ground just now. So she had

nothing to wear.

Hesitating for a moment, Anaya walked to the bathroon door and tentatively called out, “Hearst, are you

there?

When she was bathing, she heard the doorbell ring. Hearst seemed to have gone out to answer the

door.

She opened the door and poked her head out.

The bedroom was empty.

After much hesitation, Anaya walked out of the bathroom and quickly moved to the door, trying to lock

it.

However, before she reached the door, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Time seemed to be frozen.

The room fell into dead silence.

Both of them seemed to be frozen, unable to move.

Hearst’s line of siglit uncontrollably descended.

Anaya seemed to be much plumper than he thought.

Anaya took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but her slightly trembling voice still betrayed

her panic.

Hearst answered in a hoarse voice, “I’m here.”

“Get out.”

Hearst paused for two seconds and put the bag in the corner of the door. “I’ll put the clothes here.

You… Remember to wear them.”

Then he closed the door and went out.

The room returned to silence. Anaya covered her face and slowly squatted down.

She felt so embarrassed.

Anaya regretted that she had gone out of the bathroom.

Outside the door, Hearst leaned against the door, his fast and strong heartbeat ringing in his cars.

His heart beat so violently as if it was going to jump out of his chest.

Hearst closed his eyes, trying to expel the scene that should tot come to luis mind.

However, the scene in his mind became clearer when he closed his eyes.

Hearst couldn’t help but recall the scene he had just seen and felt the heat inside his body, making his

mouth and throat dry

He stood at the door for a long time, trying to calm himself down but lalled.

He had seen what he had fantasized about for countless days and nights. How could le calm down?

“Anaya,” he called out to her.

His voice was hoarse like a traveler who had not had a drop of water in the desert for a few days.

After a few seconds, Anaya’s voice came from the bedroom. “Yes?”

“I’m going to take a shower next door. You can go back after you pack up.”

Hearst deliberately avoided her and went to take a shower next door. Anaya knew what he meant.

Her checks were hot as she responded in a low voice, “Alright.”

When the bedroom door was closed, Anaya stood up from the ground and took the clothes from the

bag to change

into.

After changing her clothes, she did not stay any longer. She went downstairs to the banquet hall, took

her bag, and left.

She walked very fast as if soineone was chasing after her.

Joshua walked around the banquet hall but could not find Lexie. Instead, he saw Anaya running back

to take her bag.

He wanted to catch up, but just as he took a step, he was stopped by a person.

Joshua moved left and right, and the man followed him.

“Mr. Seabright, what are you doing?” Joshua was a little annoyed.

Martin smiled and said, “Joshua, Ms. Dutt is already Hearst’s woman. So don’t disturb her.

“Your date has already left you because of your annoyance. You shouldn’t pester Ms. Dutt now, right?”

When Joshua heard Martin’s insulting words, his face instantly darkened.

“They aren’t even dating. How did Anaya become Hearst’s woman?”

Martin casually said, “It’s impossible for you to know everything between them. Just like Mr. Helms has

stayed at Ms. Dutt’s house more than once. Do you know?”

Joshua quickly retorted, “I know.”

Martin raised his eyebrows. “So you are still pestering Ms. Dutt even though you know about that. They

have already spent the night together. It’s not a good idea to stand between them.

“Or do you have the same hobby as your girlfriend, Ms. Dunbar, to be a homewrecker?”

The veins on Joshua’s forehead bulged. A trace of sinister flashed through Joshua’s eyes. “Martin, are

you provoking me like this because you think I can’t do anything to the Seabright family?”

“Tsk, it’s really scary. You even scared me.”

Martin’s sarcasm pissed Joshua off.

The people close to Hearst didn’t even put Joshua in their eyes!

When Martin saw that Anaya had already disappeared from the entrance, he stepped aside and said,

“Are you chasing after someone? Hurry up. Otherwise, Ms. Duit might have already gone liome with

Hearst.”

Joshua walked past him and looked toward the door. But he didn’t see Anaya.

Martin was clearly deliberately delaying Joshua’s time.

Joshua was unhappy. When he turned around, Martin had already disappeared.

He gritted his teeth and decided to leave as well.

As he walked out of the banquet hall, Joshua bumped into Lexie.

When Joshua saw her, he did not greet lier with a smile as he usually did.

“Where did you go just now? Why didn’t you answer the phone?”

Lexie felt a little guilty.

Alter giving karley an idea, Lexie could not help but go back to see what Karley would do.

When she found Karley, Lexie happened to see Hearst save Anaya from the pool, leaving Karley alone

in the water.

She was worried that Karley would die here and blow up the matter, so she went to save karley and

accidentally dropped her phone into the water.

The phone wasn’t waterproof and was broken. –

Lexie borrowed the phone from the hotel staff to call the ambulance and only returned to the banquet

hall after sending Karley to the ambulance.

The moment she returned, Lexie met Joshua and was questioned.

“My phone broke in the bathroom. I’m sorry,” she lied.

“Have you seen Karley tonight?” Joshua stared at her.

Lexie was nervous. She raised her head to look at Joshua’s expression.

Did he discover something? Lexie thought.

Lexie reacted quickly and replied, “Yes. I saw that she was in a fight with the security guards, so I went

over to stop her and advised her to go home.”

Joshua was now suspecting her. If she directly lied and said that she had never seen Karley, then

Joshua would confirm that she had something to do with Anaya falling into the water.

But Lexie’s half-truth and half-lie words made foshua believe lier.

Seeing that she did not deny the fact that she had seen Karley, Joshua smoothed his eyebrows and

said, “That’s good, I knew you would not do those immoral things.

“Something happened tonight. Anaya and Hearst might retaliate against you later. But don’t worry, I will

definitely protect you.”

Lexie Was touched. She raised her hand to liold Joshua’s waist and buried her head in his arms.

“Joshua, thank you.”

Joshua was suddenly hugged by her and felt a little uncomfortable. After a few seconds, lie held her

back and promised, “You don’t have to thank me. No matter what happens, I will always be on your

side.

“As long as I’m here, no one will be able to bully you.”

Joshua made the promise, but the next day, something happened to Lexie.
