Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U by Hazel Ramirez

Chapter 83 Just Drop the Act

Anava looked at Hearst, who was walking toward her. Anaya asked, “What are you doing here?”

“Ms., Tarleton said that you need a date.” Hearst looked indifferently.

Anaya looked at Aracely.

Aracely immediately explained, “I just wanted to help you piss Joshua off. As you can see, Joshua and

Lexie are doing so great. You have to show that you still can live a better life without that jerk.”

Anaya looked a little annoyed.

Standing in front of Anaya with his back to the light, Hearst looked down at Anaya with his dark cold

eyes. “Why the long face? You don’t wanna see me here?” he asked.

“No,” Anaya bit her lower lip and continued, “I just hate to put you through this because of my personal

reason.”

Anaya felt bad about using others.

Anaya didn‘t want to end up like Joshua.

Joshua enjoyed taking advantage of those who cared about him, which made Anaya sick.

Aracely realized that she was wrong, so she immediately apologized, “Mr. Helms, I‘m really sorry. I let

my anger get the best of me. Please forgive me. I really should have considered your feelings.”

“Doesn’t matter. Let‘s go in there.”

The three of them walked into Maploem Club.

Anaya wore a blue backless evening gown that framed her curvy figure, especially her thin waist.

Walking in with grace and sex appeal, Anaya was eye-catching.

Anaya attracted everyone’s attention at once as she walked in.

Aracely held onto Anaya’s slender and fair arm. “You’re born to be the center of attention, Anaya,”

Aracely whispered proudly

Anaya smiled, “You look gorgeous too, Aracely.”

“1 know,” Aracely echoed with a smile.

The men around looked over and eagerly stared at Anava. Hearst approached Anaya unnoticeably

and tried to block those men with his tall figure.

“Anaya!”

Suddenly, a familiar voice, filled with surprise, came from behind.

Anaya’s smile vanished. Anaya pretended not to hear Bria’s voice and continued to walk forward.

However, Bria didn‘t give up and quickened her pace to catch up. Finally, Bria got in Anaya’s way.

Behind Bria were Lexie and Joshua.

Bria eyed Anaya up and down.

Bria remembered that Anaya always wore plain clothes and no makeup at the Maltz’s place. Although

Anaya was pretty, Bria never saw Anaya as a looker,

To Bria’s surprise, Anaya’s gown tonight perfectly framed her nice body. Anaya was elegant and

dangerously beautiful. No one could take their eyes off Anaya.

This was the first time Bria had seen Anaya dress up. At first, Bria thought that she had made a

mistake. However, it turned out that the stunning woman was Anaya.

It made Bria jealous. Bria snorted, “It’s just a business party. Do you really need to dress up like this?

What a whore.”

Before Anaya could retort, Aracely immediately mocked, “Oh, come on. You‘re just embarrassing

yourself. Are you jealous because Anaya is much prettier than you?”

Aracely didn‘t have to work, and she spent most of her time hanging out with other rich girls. Even

though Aracely was a nice girl who enjoyed her decent life, she was sharp-tongued.

As it happened, Aracely enjoyed picking fights with the bitches.

“What? That‘s bullshit! What is it with her? Why would I be jealous of Anaya?”

“Well, Anaya is beautiful and attentive. Plus, she can cook. Not like you, Anaya is perfect! Can’t you

see?

“Hehe, that’s not true. I guess you still don‘t know, right? I was in the hospital last night. And I…”

“Bria! Joshua interrupted angrily. “Don‘t forget what I said last night.”

Joshua asked Bria to keep it a secret last night.

Bria recalled what Joshua said, so she shut up.

Lexie sensed that Joshua and Bria were keeping something from her, but Lexie didn’t take it

seriously. Grinning, Lexie came up to Anaya and said, “Haven’t seen you in a while, Anaya. How are

you doing?”

Lexie seemed to be living a good life. Even though Lexie looked as pretty as ever, her smirk face

was annoying to Anaya.

Anaya ignored Lexie and was about to leave.

Nevertheless, Lexie took a step and stood in Anaya’s way.

In order to show off, Lexie greeted Anaya on purpose. She wouldn’t let Anaya leave until she had

managed to upset Anaya.

Lexie couldn‘t wait to tell Anaya that Joshua still took her side even after he knew everything.

Moreover, Joshua was willing to do things for her that he had never done for Anaya.

Lexie put on a fake smile and said in a gentle tone, “Joshua recently got me a studio. If I remember

correctly, Riven Group mainly focuses on the clothing business. Don’t you think we can do business

with each other?”

Anaya realized that Lexie was here to show off.

However, what Lexie was showing off was something Anaya no longer wanted. Anaya didn‘t give a

damn about what Lexie was talking about.

Anaya had had enough of meaningless conversations with Lexie. “Ms. Dunbar, I didn‘t expect you to

have the nerve to talk to me after what you had done to me not long ago,” Anaya said unfriendly.

Lexie froze all at once. “Anaya, I‘m sorry. I know I shouldn‘t have done something like that. Can you

forgive me? We‘re still friends as we used to be. I don‘t want to lose you as a friend...”

Anaya cut in, “Just drop the act. You’re no friend to me.”

Lexie pretended to sob, “Anaya…”

At the same time, Lexie secretly glanced at Joshua.

With a sullen face, Joshua silently looked at Hearst who stood beside Anaya.

Lexie knew what Joshua was thinking. Even though Lexie was pissed off, she tried not to show it.

She had gotten back together with Joshua not long before. It was a critical time. Lexie didn’t want

to screw things up

Lexie admitted that she was too impulsive. She thought, shit. I shouldn‘t have shown off in front of Алауа.

Lexie hoped that Joshua wouldn’t overthink it.

Sensing Lexie’s embarrassment, Bria stood up for Lexie and instantly changed the subject “Lexie. did

Joshua say that he was going to buy Felix‘s stunning dress for you tonight?

“As I know, Joshua never brought Anaya anything. I heard that it was Anaya who brought herself the

wedding ring and the house when they got married.”

There was a scheduled fashion show at the business party to display the Hader family’s new

products

Not long ago, Felix Turner, a world-class fashion designer, promised to work with the Hader family.

Felix‘s first dress after Felix worked under the Hader family was named “Dew”. It was said that “Dew”

would make its public debut in the fashion show.

All the clothes at the show could be brought. Therefore, all rich ladies’ hearts were set on Felix‘s

dress.

Lexie hurriedly waved her hand and replied, “Joshua’s all talk. Besides, I can‘t accept such a valuable

gift.”

Joshua wants to buy it for you because he cares about you. I don’t see why you can‘t accept it. Isn‘t it

natural for a man to buy his girl things?”

Mark always bought Bria a lot of jewelry. Bria saw nothing wrong with that and took it for granted.

“Bria, I don‘t think so...”

Hearing Lexie and Bria’s unreasonable words, Aracely couldn‘t help but roll her eyes at them. “The

show hasn’t started yet, but you sound like you‘ve bought Felix‘s dress. Ms. Aucher, why are you so

sure that the dress is gonna be Lexie’s?” Aracely snorted.

Bria said firmly, “I know it will. No matter how much it costs, Joshua will buy it for Lexie!”
