Chapter 382 She Will Flare Up One Day
Jaylon finished his work in America. His original plan was to come back today to visit Leonard and take care of some work matters on his behalf.
Anaya went to the airport with Leonard's assistant to pick him up.
The exit was crowded. Anaya waited for a while before Jaylon showed up.
The assistant took the password box dragged by Jaylon and followed Anaya and Jaylon out.
Although he was not in the company, Jaylon was still dressed in a suit. It made him look serious.
Anaya told him about Leonard's situation. Jaylon had no expression on his face and just listened calmly.
After Anaya finished speaking, Jaylon asked, "Where is the person who stabbed Dad now?"
"He was taken away by the police. Your mother is in charge of this matter. I am not too clear about the specific situation."
"Which police station?"
Anaya looked at him and said, "Why are you asking this?"
"Just asking casually."
"Is that so?"
Anaya thought, why do I feel like Jaylon is going to kill that man?
Jaylon did not linger on this topic and asked, "Is Jared still with that woman called Giana?"
When it came to that, the relaxed expression on Anaya's face faded. "No. They declared that marriage had a special purpose. Now it is over." Jaylon stopped and frowned, "Are you reconciled?"
"Well... Maybe."
To be honest, Anaya did not know her current relationship with Hearst.
Maybe they didn't make up. But they were already lying on the same bed last night.
Maybe they had made up. However, she was very dissatisfied with the last incident.
She felt so upset that she could not get rid of her emotions.
Although Anaya had temporarily suppressed her temper because of Hearst's illness, that bit of dissatisfaction and resentment was constantly
brewing. She would flare up one day.
"What do you mean?" Jaylon frowned even deeper. "Did he bully you again?" Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
"No. He has been very good to me recently."
Jaylon wanted to say something more when his phone rang.
He picked up the call. His expression became even more serious at this moment. "Control her. Don't let her leave... Yes, I'll be back now. Book me a flight back in an hour."
Anaya waited for him to end the call before asking, "What happened?"
"There is an emergency. I need to go back." Jaylon put his phone away. "Go back to the hospital yourself. Tell Dad that I will come back after I'm done with work."
"Okay." Anaya hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Was the phone call just now related to Reina?"
Two days ago, she heard Tim mention that Jaylon went to Riven Group to look for a female employee in their company.
Other than her, Jaylon only knew Reina in the Riven Group.
Jaylon seemed to be somewhat unkind to people outside her family. Anaya was worried that if Reina had too much contact with Jaylon, something bad would happen.
Most importantly, she heard from her father that Jaylon had a fiancée.
And it seemed that his relationship with Reina was not only that of his ex-
boyfriend and girlfriend.
"It's her," Jaylon said frankly.
Anaya asked, "Jaylon, what is your relationship with Reina now?"
"Why are you asking this?"
"I know I shouldn't ask about your private life, but Reina is my friend. I hope
you won't bully her."
"I didn't bully her." Jaylon's handsome face was expressionless. "I am
helping her."
"Help her?" Anaya did not know much about Reina and did not know what difficulties she had in life. "For what?"
"I will tell you, but not today."
Reina was short of money, and Jaylon gave it to her.
This was a win-win situation all around and it was very fair.
Anaya was silent. "Did Reina take the initiative to ask you for help?"
Jaylon did not answer and turned to say, "I have to catch a plane later. What
do you want to eat for lunch? Let's go eat now."
Anaya sensed something from his evasive attitude and said, "Jaylon, Reina
is a hardworking girl. If you play with her feelings, I will look down on you."
She hated unfaithful men most.
Anaya had experienced betrayal, so she could understand that feeling very
well.
Jaylon was stunned for a moment and promised, "I didn't play with her
feelings."
He thought, it is just a money transaction between us. The price is set. We
made a deal.
It is just that the seller is unwilling to carry out this transaction. I need to
use some means to get the order just like in business.
After getting his promise, Anaya felt a little more at ease.
After lunch, Jaylon entered the departure hall. Anaya took a car back to the
hospital and told Leonard and Carlee about Jaylon.
After hearing this, Leonard scolded, "This brat! He doesn't even care about
his father."
Carlee spoke on behalf of Jaylon, "He is just busy with work. You were just stabbed, it's not a big deal. If not for the summit meeting of two days, do
you think Jaylon would come back to see you, old bastard?"
Anaya was speechless.
She thought, is it just a stab? Is it not a big deal?
Anaya was shocked by Carlee's words.
After Carlee finished mocking Leonard, she looked at Anaya again with a
gentle smile on her face. Her attitude was far from when she faced
Leonard.
"Ana, tonight is the banquet of the Hornsby family. Please accompany me
here."
Jaylon's fiancée, Nadia, was Carlee's collateral relative. The Hornsby
family's main business was the automobile industry. It was involved in many industries such as oil, shipbuilding, and financial investments. Their strength was comparable to the Malpas family, and they were all well- known families in Canada.
Two years ago, Nadia entered a well-known university in Italy. A few days
ago, she had just obtained a school degree certificate and was ready to join the company and take over part of the family business. Tonight, her father prepared a celebration banquet for her, preparing to introduce her to the big shots in all industries and pave the way for her next
job.
Jaylon came back this time to visit Leonard, and also to participate in this celebration banquet as Nadia's fiancé to prove the friendly relationship between the two families.
But in the end, to deal with Reina, he left everything behind and went back
to America.
Carlee was bored going alone, so Anaya agreed.
Anaya did not return to the research institute in the afternoon and was
ready to start from the beauty salon with Carlee.
When the makeup artist gave Carlee the time to put on makeup, Anaya
called Hearst to explain the situation.
Hearst did not stop her. They chatted briefly, and Anaya was ready to hang
up the phone.
Hearst suddenly remembered what happened when he and Landin were in
the hospital the day before yesterday. He called her, "Who are you going
with?"
"With my mother." Anaya was a little puzzled. "What's wrong?" "Nothing, have fun with Carlee." Hearst was relieved.
