Chapter 874 Rekindled Old Affair

What a small world. Anna stopped in her tracks with her face full of disgust towards someone.

Bryce saw Anna and immediately walked towards her with an elegant smile on his handsome face.

Anna's red lips curled in mockery at the sight of that smile. She had been charmed by it before, but what was the result? This jerk had blatantly betrayed her. He was nothing but a scumbag. Seeing the hatred and disdain in Anna's eyes, Bryce couldn't help but sigh.

Jimmy, I directed quite a show for you to win over Anna, but she hates me so much now. One day, I'll ask you to compensate me for my mental anguish.

Anna was blocked by Bryce and looked displeased.

Mia just came out of the practice room when she saw Anna and Bryce standing face-to-face. She immediately stepped aside and opened her phone camera to record their interaction clearly. Anna, I will make sure your reputation is ruined forever," Mia said with an evil grin as she held up her phone camera recording them both together.

"Bryce, please move aside," Anna said coldly without any warmth in her voice.

Bryce looked helpless at Anna's indifference "Don't treat me like an enemy; I genuinely wish you all the best with Jimmy. When I heard you're dating, I felt happy from my heart." "This is none of your business," replied Anna coldly even though she received Bryce's sincere apology earlier; she still didn't want anything more to do with him than necessary.

"Must you treat me like this? After all, I match-made you two. Don't you think what you're doing to me is outrageous?"

Anna remarked sarcastically, "What makes you have that illusion? I didn't fool around with someone else behind your back. Bryce, I advise you to behave yourself, or I'm afraid your sexual pleasure will be totally destroyed by some woman within no time."

Anna sneered and mocked, her beautiful clear eyes filled with disdain and contempt.

Bryce raised an eyebrow.

This woman is really ruthless.

Her sarcastic remarks left him speechless.

"I admit that I may have gone too far in the past, but my intentions were good."

Anna shrugged her shoulders and walked past Bryce without a second glance.

As she disappeared from his sight, Bryce's expression became complex. He turned around and saw Mia standing in the corner. His eyebrows furrowed as he walked over to her. "What are you doing here?"

Mia was surprised that Bryce had noticed her, but she didn't show any fear. She smiled brightly after putting away her phone earlier than expected.

"I'm studying on my own. I just finished training, Bryce. I'll work hard to show you my best side."

Mia spoke confidently with a determined look on her face.

Bryce didn't know much about Mia except that she was Anna's friend. However... the coldness in Mia's eyes made him dislike her somewhat.

As someone who had fooled around with a lot of women, he could tell at a glance that Mia wasn't as simple as she appeared - she was quite calculating.

"As long as you work hard, everyone will see your achievements. Don't take shortcuts or else it will ruin everything for yourself."

Bryce gave an implication before turning around to leave.

Mia revealed an evil smile.

Anna... you're done for this time.

Thinking of the photos she had taken earlier today made Mia even more pleased with herself despite feeling exhausted from training all day long.

Although Anna was tired after training all day long today, she still came to the hospital where her dad stayed.

After wiping her dad's body clean, she sat by the bedside and shared their happy past as a family of four.

"Dad," Anna whispered softly into his ear while holding onto one of his hands tightly, "If you can speak again someday, please tell me everything about my lost memories including every detail involving Jimmy, because I want to know everything no matter how painful or difficult it may be."

As Jimmy's image floated up before Anna's eyes once more, she couldn't help but smile sweetly...

Mrs. Miller walked into the room just then seeing Anna smiling like this made Mrs. Miller walk up to Anna...

"Did your older brother's job get arranged? Which department? Is he a manager, and how many people are under him?" Mrs. Miller asked excitedly.

Anna sighed and gently placed her father's hand under the blanket. "Mom, please don't pressure me anymore. I won't help my brother replace a job. Let him go out and replace one himself, or else he'll always be a freeloader."

"You..." Mrs. Miller was angry and stopped talking to Anna, sitting on the side instead.

Although there were nurses taking care of her father 24 hours a day, Anna still stayed at the hospital. She fell asleep by his bedside just before dawn until she slowly opened her eyes to Mrs. Miller's exclamation-filled shout that woke her up from sleep.

"What... what is this? Aren't you with the CEO of the Harrison Group? Who is this man? Are you cheating on both men?"

Mrs. Miller threw a newspaper directly in front of Anna.

What cheating on both men?

Anna looked confused for quite some time before finally picking up the newspaper.

Oh my god... what is going on here?!

Seeing herself and Bryce clearly published in photos in the newspaper made Anna instantly wide awake; due to angle issues, their pictures seemed somewhat intimate.

The accompanying text was even more suggestive word by word.

Anna was at a loss for words; why did their photo look so intimate when there had been some distance between them all along?

Who leaked these photos to the media anyway?

"Mom, I need to go to the compan ynow; Bryce and I broke up long ago," said an anxious Anna as she ran out of the ward as quickly as possible towards J. S. Entertainment. When she saw reporters outside the company entrance, she felt nervous inside.

Were these reporters here for her?

Not knowing how to deal with reporters yet made Anna feel scared as she sneaked into the company through another door.

On her way towards Bryce's office room, she could clearly hear everyone discussing about it which left behind bitter feelings written all over her face.

Several stylish trainees came forward towards her.

"Anna, no wonder you're thriving in the company. It turns out Bryce has been backing you up all along? I never would have guessed. You seem so innocent and low-key on a regular basis. We underestimated you." One of the interns said sourly, jealousy evident in her eyes as she spoke to Anna.

"Today's photos were leaked, it looks like it was another one of your tactics to let everyone know that you're Bryce's girlfriend and solidify your position?"

Faced with their speculation and contemptuous words, Anna felt at a loss for what to do.

She wanted to explain herself but when she thought about the intimate photo that had appeared in the newspaper due to its angle, she knew her explanation would only make them think it was a smug plan after being caught.

"I'll give an explanation."

Anna said calmly as she walked past them quickly towards Bryce's office.

When she got close to his office, Mia blocked her path. "Bryce isn't here." He wasn't here?

Anna felt like fainting; how could she explain things if he wasn't even present?

Mia walked up to her with cold eyes. "Didn't you break up with him? Why are there photos like this being leaked again? Did you rekindle your old affair?"
