Chapter 292 Give Him a Chance

Chapter 292 Give Him a Chance

The atmosphere in the ward was a little solemn.

It had been a long time since Anaya had seen Adams so serious.

Anaya walked into the ward and put the flowers and pastries she brought on the table.

As soon as the things were put down, Adams said, "Anaya, Joshua said that you were drunk on thenight of your birthday, and you..."

Adams paused for a moment. The traditional habits inherited from the older generation made him feelembarrassed to continue talking about these things with Anaya, so he skipped it. "Is what he saidtrue?"

Anaya turned around and did not immediately answer Adams' question. Instead, she looked at Joshuaindifferently. "You said that

I was drunk that night?"

Hearing her question, Joshua pursed his lips and did not answer.

Anaya sneered coldly, "You are really shameless!"

Joshua frowned and said, "I'm obviously using this as an excuse to preserve your dignity. Do you wantme to tell Mr. Dutt the truth about that night?"

"Whether it's for my sake or for your and Mrs. Maltz's sake, you know it yourself."

After Anaya ridiculed Joshua, she looked at Adams. "Grandpa, he lied to you. There was nothingbetween us. The person who was with me that night was Jared."

Adams immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

Just now, Joshua suddenly ran over to say that he and Anaya had sex after drinking, and Adamsalmost had a heart attack on the spot.

It was not easy for Anaya to escape from the Maltz family. If this was true, she would never be able tosever her ties with the Maltz family.

Adams heaved a sigh of relief, but Joshua’s expression suddenly turned gloomy.

He was clearly flustered, but he forced himself to remain calm.

"Anaya, what nonsense are you talking about? Have you forgotten what happened that night? I havethe surveillance video of the corridor. Do you believe that I will show it to Mr. Dutt now?"

Last night at Anaya's company, his lie about the video of the hotel room had been exposed by Anaya.There was no way he would use that to set her up again.

Joshua, therefore, came to Adams, hoping to get Adams to help him force Anaya to make a choice.

In the end, Adams was indeed intimidated by him and even personally called Anaya over to confronthim.

Unexpectedly, Anaya seemed to have known the truth of that night.

Joshua secretly clenched his fists, forcing himself to calm down and not panic.

Anaya lived in the company last night, so she should not have

communicated with Hearst.

She must have said this to stabilize Adams' mood.

That must be the case.

Joshua thought it must still be possible between him and Anaya as long as he stuck to it.

As he thought of this, the uneasiness and panic in his heart spread uncontrollably.

The next moment, Anaya's words broke his last hope. "Jared came to look for me last night and toldme everything about that night."

Anaya looked at Joshua, and there was nothing else in her eyes other than disdain and disgust for him.

"Joshua, I used to think I had a full understanding of how immoral and impolite you are, but now Irealize I still underestimated you.

"You are far more disgusting than I thought!"

Joshua would never know how much pain he caused her for his selfish desires!

Joshua was always concerned only with his own interests, never considering whether others would bewilling or how uncomfortable they would be.

Joshua had heard Anaya disparage him more than once, but what he had heard today was the mostunbearable thing for him.

Because he clearly knew that it was impossible for him and her now.

At first, Anaya just didn't like him anymore.

But now, there was more hatred.

It was not the hate out of love that outsiders understood, but pure and complete hatred.

Joshua even thought that if there were no witnesses present today, and if society did not have legalconstraints, Anaya would not hesitate to grab the fruit knife on the table and stab it into his heart.

However, now his heart was no less painful than being stabbed.

Joshua tried to save his last dignity. "Anaya, my mother was the one who did that night. I didn't knowanything about it..."

Anaya sneered, "Are you trying to put the blame on Mrs. Maltz? Do you remember that she's yourmother?

"Even if what happened that night had nothing to do with you, were you the one who lied to me? Was ityou who threatened me?

"You lied and didn't tell me the truth. You lied to me and hurt me. How can you still blame your mother?"

Joshua opened his mouth to say something.

But he didn't know what to say.

He was unable to refute her words.

"Mr. Maltz, please get out of here. Otherwise, I'll have someone drive you out." Anaya's attitudebecame even colder when she saw Joshua become silent.

Joshua tightened his grip and loosened it, seemingly a little helpless.

Now, Joshua really had no way back.

Half a year ago, when he signed the divorce agreement, he had never thought that there would be aday when he wanted to get Anaya back.

What was even more impossible was that he had chased after her, yet she was unwilling to even givehim a chance.

Just like when she chased him for ten years, he never noticed her.

He had nothing to say to her and turned to leave.

Before Joshua left the room, Anaya said, "Mr. Maltz, I've got a little gift for you. Remember to watch thenews tonight."

Joshua paused, did not respond, and quickly left.

After Joshua left, Adams said, "Anaya, what happened between you two?"

From the conversation between them, Adams seemed to understand something, but he didn't seem tounderstand it very well either.

From what he heard, it seemed that Joshua had replaced Jared, making Anaya think that they had sex.

What he didn't understand was how the matter between them got involved with Cecilia again.

Anaya had no intention of telling Adams about this.

That had passed, so she didn't want to make Adams worry about it.

"It's nothing. I drank too much that night and caused a misunderstanding."

Seeing that Anaya did not want to talk about it, Adams did not ask any further.

After a while, Adams suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that Hearst has returned, right? When do youplan to bring him to me?"

"If you want to see him, I can call him over tonight." Anaya pulled a chair and sat down beside Adams.

"Okay, you ask him to come over tonight. We can have dinner together."

Adams had been recovering well recently and could go out.

"I'll send him a message now." Anaya nodded.

Anaya took out her phone and was about to edit the message.

Adams looked outside the door. After confirming that there was no one outside, he asked Anaya in alow voice, "Anaya, are you going to give me a great-grandchild?"

Anaya's hand trembled, and her phone almost fell to the ground.

"Grandpa. This is not the time to talk about it." Anaya looked up with some dissatisfaction.

"Sorry. I won't ask," Adams laughed out loud.

However, he could see from Anaya's reaction that it should be soon.
