Chapter 239 Nonsense
Joshua’s phone kept ringing. He turned off the phone and threw it on the sofa, scratching his hair in frustration.
The night before yesterday, he was impulsive and lied to Hearst. In fact, he had already started to regret it after that.
He wasn’t worried that Hearst would die on the rainy and windy night in the mountain, but that if Hearst died, Anaya might hate him for a lifetime.
If Hearst was still alive, the Maltz Group and Prudential Group would be officially at war.
If Hearst tried his best to fight against the Maltz Group, it was very likely that he would gradually wear Joshua out until the entire Maltz Group was
doomed.
However, to Joshua’s surprise, the consequences that these two situations might cause actually occurred together.
Anaya hated him and was ready to attack the Maltz Group.
As for Hearst, he was not dead. This time, Anaya only undermined the Maltz Group a little. In the future, if Hearst went into battle in person, he
would probably skin the Maltz Group alive, pull out its tendons, and eat it up.
At this moment, Joshua was extremely regretful that he had made this move out of impulse.
It seemed that he often did something impulsive because of Anaya.
He knew that it was wrong, but he couldn’t control himself.
Just like that night, after knowing that Anaya had dated Hearst, he was so jealous that he was about to go crazy.
To vent his anger, he chose to pass false information to Hearst.
As a result, all the temper that he had lost finally came to him.
Thinking of what happened today, Joshua became even angrier and almost smashed something.
The landline in the office rang, and he quickly picked it up.
The news was not that the public relations department had come up with a solution, but that Cecilia had come to the company and said that she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwanted to see him.
Even though they had not met, Joshua knew what Cecilia was going to say.
Cecilia cared about her face, so what else could she say to him besides blaming him?
“No, ask someone to send her home.”
“Mr. Maltz, Mrs. Maltz has already gone up…” The speaker on the phone was hesitant.
Just as the man finished speaking, the office door was pushed open from the outside.
“I just arrived, and you want to send me back, right? Are you so afraid of seeing me?” Cecilia asked sternly.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid her, Joshua directly hung up.
“I just don’t want you to worry about me.”
Cecilia sneered, “If you don’t want me to worry about you, you shouldn’t have done so many ridiculous things!
“You hit him but had him get the goods on you. Is that how I usually teach you? You should hit him without letting others know. You can’t even fight
back when cornered like this!”
Joshua was already extremely annoyed, to begin with, and after hearing Cecilia’s rebuke, he became even more annoyed. “If you came here just to
talk about this, I’ll have Alex send you back right now.”
“I am your mom. I just tried to talk sense into you, but you out on a stern face.” Cecilia sat down on the sofa angrily. “I came here to ask you why
Anaya was targeting you. Did you offend her again?”
Of course, Joshua couldn’t tell Cecilia what he had done wrong. “She never needed a reason to target me. How would I know why she targeted
me?”
“Is it because she doesn’t have a reason, or are you always unhappy with her?” Cecilia scoffed.
Joshua remained silent.
Cecilia continued, “It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. I still have something to tell you today.
“It was not Anaya who had an abortion in the hospital. It was a female star named Yamilet.
“I think Anaya has been hiding this from you all this time, just to anger you. There should be no substantial progress between her and Hearst.
“I know you can’t let her go. Since that’s the case, instead of making an enemy of her, why don’t you win her back and make her your helper?”
Joshua sat down opposite Cecilia. “I’m doing this.”
“You’ve decided to win her back?” Cecilia was delighted.
“Even if I want to win her back, I have to get her nod of assent.”
“Does she really have no intention of accepting you again?” Cecilia frowned.
“No.” Joshua hesitated for a moment. “Moreover, she has already dated Hearst.”
“She already has a boyfriend?” Cecilia was stunned.
“Yes.”
“Then forget it.” Cecilia sighed. “No matter how good Anaya is, she already has a boyfriend. You shouldn’t disturb her.”
“Go and apologize to her later. Buy No. 4 District of Waltcester from her. Let’s make these things move on.”
After Cecilia finished, Joshua remained silent.
Cecilia guessed what he was thinking and became angry. “You still want to win her heart, right?”
“Isn’t this what you wanted me to do just now?” Joshua looked at her calmly.
“Ridiculous!” Cecilia stood up from the sofa. “I just said that because I didn’t know she had already dated Hearst!
“Now that I know about it, I can’t let you destroy their relationship! You can’t learn from Lexie and be the home wrecker. Do you understand?”
“What do you mean by saying ‘home wrecker’?” Joshua’s eyes were dark, and he became ruthless. “She was mine. It was Hearst who came out
halfway and took away the woman that should have belonged to me.
“I just want to take back what belonged to me. How did I be the home wrecker?”
“Nonsense!” Cecilia tried her best to lower her voice so that outsiders would not hear her. “She already divorced you and is now with someone else.
If you want to court her again, you’re destroying their relationship!
“I can turn a blind eye to what you did in the past. You absolutely cannot do this. Do you hear me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoshua said nothing.
Cecilia repeated, “Did you hear that?”
Joshua still did not speak. He stood up and prepared to leave.
Cecilia could not help but raise her voice. “Where are you going?”
“To buy No. 4 District of Waltcester.”
After saying this, Joshua pushed open the office door and walked out.
Cecilia sat alone in the office for quite a while. After calming herself down, she also left.
There was an impromptu meeting at three o’clock. Anaya brought the documents and went to the meeting room.
Just as she walked out of the office, he saw a man wearing a mask walking over.
The man had a work pass of Riven Group hanging around his neck, but Anaya knew that it was Joshua at a glance.
She had previously blacklisted him and did not expect him to sneak into the company in this way. Joshua walked up to her, took off his mask, and
said in a tone that was unnegotiable, “Give me some time. I have something to tell you.”
“Sorry, I’m time-pressed,” said Anaya as she walked past him.
“You can’t even spare ten minutes? Are you really busy or are you deliberately not wanting to talk to me?” Joshua held her hand and looked sullen.

Anaya smiled and waved the documents in her hand. “Mr. Maltz, I have a meeting in five minutes. You are in such a hurry. Do you want to follow me
into the conference room and tell me what you want in front of others?”
Joshua’s face darkened, and he released her. “How long will it take?”
“A temporary meeting. I’m not sure.”
“I’ll wait here for you.”
“Up to you.”
Anaya led Tim to the conference room.
Joshua waited for her in the reception room. In the end, he did not see Anaya but the security guards.
