Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U by Hazel Ramirez

Chapter 323 Take You to Sleep on the Sofa

Anaya repeated what she had just said. Then, she asked, "Did you not find the way just now?"

The man put away the phone and answered truthfully, "No. I walked to the intersection. But I came back

somehow."

Anaya looked in the direction of the man's line of sight.

The man didn't even reach the two buildings that Anaya had told him about.

Anaya was silent for a moment. Then, she asked, "Are you sure you can get to South Square?"

"Maybe."

The man sounded a little uncertain.

Anaya decided to send this man to his destination. So, she handed the remaining half of the bread to a little boy

next to her and said to the man beside her, "I'll take you to the underground passage."

The underground passage that Anaya needed to pass through to South Square was a little winding. In addition,

the man in front of her seemed to be a stuffy person and did not like to talk to people. Anaya suspected that this

man might not be able to find the way there.

The man nodded and said sincerely, "Thank you."

The underground passage was not far from here, and it would only take seven or eight minutes to walk there.

Anaya sent the man to the road and said, "There. The South Square will be on the right."

The man expressed his gratitude again. Then, he took out his wallet, took out a bank card, and handed it to Anaya.

"Lady, thank you for your help. Please take this."

Anaya was stunned.

Anaya thought, is the way foreigners express their gratitude so simple and surprising?

Giving others the bank card?

Anaya noticed that there were several cards from the same bank in

the man's wallet. She thought he often did the same thing to others.

This was the first time Anaya had seen someone with such a unique personality.

To put it nicely, the man was generous. But to put it bluntly, he was rich but stupid.

Anaya did not take the card. "No need. I only showed you the way. I'm leaving."

After saying that, Anaya did not give the man a chance to speak and left directly.

The man put away his wallet and went to South Square.

After about two minutes, a woman with mixed blood walked over to the man and complained, "Landin, I asked you

to wait for me at the fountain over there. Why are you by the roadside? Did you get lost again?"

The man was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Yes."

Layla felt a little speechless. She said to the man, "Get in the car with me. Don't come out alone next time. You're

always like this. It's really...

"I am in a bad mood today. Jared brought a woman back. I am pissed off, yet you are still making trouble for me..."

Landin Giles silently listened to Layla's complaints and followed her forward.

After Layla finished complaining, she asked Landin, "Where did you just come from? I didn't see you."

"East square."

"You came by yourself?" Layla was shocked.

"A kind-hearted person led the way for me."

Thinking of the person who had just led the way for him, Landin slightly changed his expression. His original

indifferent expression became a bit gentler.

Landin thought Anaya seemed to be from America. Although she

did not have an accent, her voice always carried the softness of America, unlike Layla, who was born and bred in

Canada. Layla's voice made her sound like a tough girl.

Hearing this, Layla did not ask any more questions. Instead, Layla

talked about what had happened at the Helms' place today and spoke ill of Anaya. She even hinted at Landin to

help her fight for

some benefits.

However, Landin had no intention of helping at all. He just listened

to Layla's complaints silently.

Seeing that Landin had no intention of helping, Layla could only shut up resentfully.

Anaya passed through the middle of the two buildings and was

about to return to East Square. But she happened to meet Hearst who came out of the building.

Anaya called out to Hearst and quickened her pace as she walked

toward him.

Hearst saw that Anaya did not come from East Square, so he

casually asked, "Where did you go just now?"

"Someone got lost. I helped him to find a way."

Hearst didn't ask more. He accompanied Anaya back to feed the

seagulls for a while and then went to the next place.

At night, Anaya and Hearst had dinner outside before returning

home.

During this time, Linda hypocritically made a phone call and asked Anaya and Hearst to go back for dinner. But

Hearst refused.

When Anaya and Hearst got home, they saw that there was no one in the living room. Then, they went upstairs

directly. Anaya and Hearst took a shower separately. When Anaya finished

the shower, Hearst had already dried his hair and was ready to put

away the hairdryer.

Seeing Anaya come out, Hearst said lightly, "Come here."

Hearing this, Anaya walked over and sat down on the cashmere carpet with retro patterns printed on it.

Hearst took off the towel that wrapped Anaya's hair, casually placed

it on the bedside table, turned on the hairdryer, held Anaya's wet hair, and carefully blew on it.

The hairdryer buzzed, like a lullaby that could coax people to sleep.

Anaya slightly leaned sideways, leaning against Hearst's leg. She closed her eyes and enjoyed Hearst's service.

Feeling the warm air above her head, Anaya asked in a lazy tone,

"Jared, is your relationship with your family very bad?"

Hearing this, Hearst paused in his actions.

After a long time, Hearst finally let out an "Mm".

After a while, Hearst added, "You seemed to have looked forward to

seeing them very much before, so I didn't tell you about this."

Hearst thought that Anaya had noticed that Linda and the others were cooperating with him to act as a harmonious

family, so he added this sentence.

However, this explanation actually attracted Anaya's attention.

Anaya had originally only wanted to find an excuse to draw out Cristian's matter. But after Anaya found out that

Hearst was lying, her focus instantly changed. "So you intentionally hid this from me?"

Hearst was silent for a long time. Finally, he sighed and said, "I had some conflicts with those people from the

Helms family. I didn't want you to know about them. I was worried that you would ask, so

I chose to hide it. Sorry."

Anaya raised her hand and turned off the hairdryer in Hearst's hand. Then, she threw the hairdryer to the side.

Anaya's arm rested on Hearst's leg as she half-knelt on the carpet.

She looked up at him and said, "So you watched me carefully prepare gifts for them without telling me anything?

"I came to Canada to see your parents with expectations. But the

fact was that they didn't want to see me at all. Do you think this is

fun?"

Anaya's tone was not heavy, but it was obvious that she was

unhappy.

Hearst explained, "They said that they would receive you well. I didn't expect Cristian to not cooperate and make

you embarrassed."

Anaya had an indifferent expression on her face. "Oh. You even

joined forces with them to put on an act in front of me."

Hearst suddenly didn't know what to say.

Occasionally, Hearst would feel that Anaya was really good at

seizing the key points.

Anaya could quickly figure out what Hearst was planning.

"Are you angry?" Hearst asked.

"What do you think?"

Hearst held Anaya up and pulled her into his arms.

Anaya's wet hair touched Hearst's chest and wetted his pajamas. "Sorry. I went too far this time."

Anaya pushed Hearst, indicating that she did not want to hear his

explanation. "You will have to go to sleep on the sofa tonight."

The next moment, Anaya was carried up by Hearst.

Anaya reflexively put her arms around Hearst's neck. "What are you

doing?" "Taking you to sleep on the sofa." Anaya was speechless.
