Chapter 240 He Is Pathetic
Joshua never expected that Anaya would call the security guards over to disgrace him.
Among them, the leader stepped forward and asked, “Mr. Maltz, do you want to leave on your own, or do we ‘invite’ you to leave?”
The surrounding employees were all looking over. Joshua gritted his teeth and wore his mask again. “I’ll go by myself.”
“Thank you.”
After Joshua left, an employee posted the video that had just been recorded on the Internet.
The news concerning the cemetery was still being hotly-searched. And Joshua appeared at Riven Group at this juncture. It was clearly because he
failed to negotiate and was driven out.
Netizens were gloating, all of them scolding Joshua.
Joshua casually glanced at the comments a few times before he turned off that page in frustration. The most important thing right now was to take
back No. 4 District of Waltcester, and he had no time to care about the rest.
After he was “invited” out by the security guards, he did not leave immediately, but lingered nearby and waited for Anaya to get off work.
He waited for two hours.
Joshua had almost run out of patience before he managed to see Anaya walk out of the office building.
He strode over, blocking her way.
He asked, “How can you give up on building the cemetery?”
Anaya was annoyed by him, but the expression on her face remained indifferent.
“I cannot give up on this.”
Her voice was not loud, but it was sonorous and forceful.
“Anaya, do you have to be so ruthless?” Joshua stared straight at her with a pair of sharp eyes that were like a hawk.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf the cemetery was built, the housing price in No. 4 District of Waltcester would slump.
The so-called high-end residential area would be worse than ordinary apartments when the cemetery was built!
The project that had cost billions of dollars wouldn’t even be able to get the cost back!
“Ruthless? If you hadn’t provoked me first, would I have gone so far?” Anaya sneered.
“You knew that I was in the hotel, but you deliberately passed false news to Jared. It was rainy so hard that night. Did you think of the possibility that
he might never come back?
“Compared to what you’ve done, what I’ve done is nothing!”
Joshua pursed his lips hard. “I can apologize to Hearst.”
Joshua had always been proud and arrogant. To him, this apology was his greatest sincerity.
However, Anaya did not care. “If an apology was useful, the police would lose his job.
“If I kill someone, will I be directly released immediately after I apologize?”
Joshua got a little impatient. “You are blowing things out of proportion! Hearst is not dead at all. Why are you so angry with me?”
“You should be glad that he is not dead. If he is dead, I will not let you live.”
Anger rose in Joshua’s eyes, and his chest seemed to be gnawed by numerous ants. “In your heart, is he so important?”
Anaya did not hesitate. “Yes.”
Joshua stared at her, the anger still surging around him, but he had nowhere to vent it.
He closed his eyes and tried his best to calm himself down, not letting his anger dominate him.
He wasn’t here to argue with Anaya today. It was more important to get down to business.
“An expert told me that that piece of land is not suitable for building a cemetery. Even if you build it, I’m afraid that you won’t get any rewards.”
“You are so credulous!” Anaya smiled.
Joshua continued, “Name your price and sell me the land. I’ll buy it from you.”
“Mr. Maltz is so rich and overbearing.” Anaya seemed to have thought of something, and her lips curled into a smile. “You convinced me. I have
given up on building the cemetery. The land can be
sold to you directly. As for the price…”
She deliberately paused for a while before saying, “I bought it for 5 million dollars. Give me twenty times the price, and I’ll sell it to you. How about
it?”
Joshua’s face turned red, and his entire body was like an arrow that had been nocked on a bow. It was about to split open. “You’re demanding too
much!”
Anaya ignored his anger and said slowly, “So, do you want to buy it?”
Joshua gritted his teeth and said, “Of course!”
“Alright, I’ll get someone to go over and go through the procedures with you tomorrow. Please transfer the money to Prudential Group.”
She reached out a hand and smiled merrily, “Wish our cooperation a success.”
Joshua was not in the mood to shake hands with her, and his face looked very dark. He turned and left directly.
As soon as he turned around, he saw a Cayenne parked by the roadside.
Hearst came out of the car. He was tall and straight, and his complexion was ruddy. Obviously, he had recovered well these two days.
Hearst’s gaze only stayed on Joshua for a second before passing him and looking at Anaya who was behind him.
“Ana, come here.”
After more than a dozen seconds, the woman behind Joshua walked past Joshua and walked toward Hearst.
The string in Joshua’s heart was completely broken.
Anaya walked over to Hearst. “You came quite quickly.”
This afternoon, she shared her success with Hearst, and he took the opportunity to invite her to dinner with him.
Hearst rushed over from his company. It was indeed fast to arrive so early.
“I just happened to have nothing to do today, so I came early,” Hearst said in a faint voice.
Inside the car, Jayden silently recalled the schedule for today.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWell, there was indeed nothing to do.
All the work was put off by rejected by Hearst.
Anaya did not doubt his words. “So you are quite free.”
Hearst smiled and opened the car door for her. “Get in…”
Anaya agreed and was about to get into the car when an ear-piercing voice came from behind.
“Hearst, don’t you feel sick when you date a divorced woman like Anaya?
“Or maybe you like second-hand goods!”
From the moment Joshua saw Anaya walk towards Hearst, he was jealous and embarrassed, like a stray dog that was unwilling to admit that it had
been abandoned. He could only forcefully get back his dignity by disparaging Anaya.
Even though he knew that his words would hurt Anaya.
But he couldn’t control himself.
He hoped that Anaya would turn back to look at him, instead of only having Hearst in her heart and eyes.
Whatever!
He hoped that Anaya would not board Hearst’s car.
This would make him look pitiful.
In the game of three people, there was no place for him.
Anaya turned back to look at him, her eyes extremely cold, but she wasn’t as grieved and angry as she had been when she was belittled by Joshua
for the first time.
Previously at Mia’s birthday banquet, Joshua had also said that to her.
At that time, she was sad and angry, and finally beat him up like a defeated ox, leaving sadly.
Now, she understood that her sadness would only serve as nourishment for his arrogance, making herself sad and the enemy glad.
Only when she was calm would he be in a panic.
“By belittling others to maintain your dignity, that’s probably all you can do.”
Her remarks about Joshua were embarrassingly close to home, making him almost jump up to express his anger.
“What I said is the truth. You are talking about something else again!”
