Chapter 23 No Traces of Male Habitation
Anaya took Sammo home. She took dog food and some dog toys out and showered Sammo.
Just as Anaya was about to dry Sammo‘s hair, the doorbell rang.
She put down the hairdryer and walked to the door.
Seeing the person outside, Anaya gripped the handle tightly and blocked the door. “Why are you here?”
Joshua‘s face was cold, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze into ice, “Before the divorce, did you get together with Hears?”
On the way here, Joshua asked Alex to look for that trend.
The trend only stayed for ten minutes in the top list before it was removed. It was likely that someone subdued it on purpose.
Somehow, Joshua thought that it must be Anaya.
The fact that Anaya took the initiative to bring up the divorce was unbelievable. Moreover, she had just gotten a divorce today, and Hearse was waiting for her at the entrance of City Hall...
If Anaya and Hearst got together before the divorce, then everything made sense.
However, all of this was only a guess. Without conclusive evidence, Joshua could only come over to verify it.
If everything was true...
If everything was true, Joshua would never let Hearst get away with it!
“It‘s not often to see you talk to me so politely.” Anaya gave him a sarcastic compliment and continued. “The news is fake. Those photos were taken secretly at night. You should have investigated what happened that night. Nothing happened between him and me.”
Her delicate face was bright and magnanimous, without any trace of lying.
Joshua stared at Anaya for a while and seemed to be considering the authenticity of her words.
Anaya was about to let him leave when Joshua suddenly forcefully pushed open the door and entered the apartment.
Joshua never asked for Anaya‘s opinion before doing anything.
“Mr. Maltz, didn‘t anyone tell you that breaking into a single woman‘s home is very rude?” Anaya was a little dissatisfied.
“We have been living together for a year. Do you still care about this?”
“That was before. Now we are divorced.”
Joshua was a little displeased and did not argue with her. He carefully observed her residence.
It was a normal apartment that was more than a thousand square feet. The decoration was very simple.
Although it wasn‘t shabby, it was far inferior to the Maltz‘s house,
“You live in a place like this?” Joshua asked in disdain.
It was not that Anaya couldn‘t afford to rent a better house, but it was just that this place was closest to the hospital where Adams lived, so she chose this place.
“Mr. Maltz, if you came here just to provoke me, please leave now.” Anaya stood by the door without explaining.
Joshua glanced at her without a word and circled the room.
The toothbrush, slippers, and clothes on the balcony were all Anaya‘s.
There were no traces of male habitation.
It made Joshua‘s mood slightly better.
It looked like the news was indeed fake.
Just as Joshua was about to leave the bathroom, he saw a white thing under the sink.
Sammo‘s fur was still wet. It shook its body and wanted to get dry.
Joshua was standing right next to it, and he was splashed all over by the water without warning.
His face instantly turned glum. He took out a dark handkerchief and wiped the water on his clothes. He quickly walked out of the bathroom and said in his usual commanding tone, “Anaya, you know that I don‘t like dogs. Why did you raise such a dirty thing? Quickly throw it away!”
As if feeling Joshua‘s mood, the dog deliberately ran to his side, shook a few more times, and thert quickly hid behind Anaya for protection.
Joshua‘s expression became even more gloomy.
Anaya smiled.
This dog was smart and knew who to get close to.
“Mr. Maltz,” Anaya lifted her eyelids and looked at Joshua. “I am no longer your ‘servant‘. Please don‘t use this kind of commanding tone to talk to me. It‘s not pleasant to the ears.”
In the past, Anaya had liked Joshua, which was why she had tolerated him.
Now that she didn‘t like him anymore, he no longer had the right to order her.
Anaya asked Joshua to leave again, “Mr. Maltz, please leave immediately. Otherwise, I don‘t niind letting my dog stick to you and let you feel his love.”
Joshua glanced at Anaya and her dog. Without another word, he walked toward the door.
Joshua walked past Anaya.
Anaya‘s phone rang and she picked it up.
Joshua listened to Anaya as he walked.
“I just took a bath for him... Its fur is really long... Okay, I‘ll see if I have time on the weekend to take him to the pet shop. It‘s okay, no trouble...” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Joshua walked to the entrance and stopped.
He waited for Anaya to hang up before asking her with a dark face, “Whose dog is that?”
When Joshua asked this, he had a faint guess in his heart,
Just now, Joshua had vaguely recognized the voice on the phone.
It was very similar to the voice he had heard at the entrance of the bar earlier.
These two people had a relationship!
“It has nothing to do with you.”
Anaya‘s attitude angered Joshua, and he suppressed his anger. “I don‘t care who you are with, but you‘d better restrain yoursell. Don‘t make news like you did today, causing the two families to be embarrassed!”
“When did I not restrain myself? Did I go out to show off that I had cheated? You always stay together with Lexie. How dare you accuse me of not being restrained?”
“You!”
“Sammo, bite him!” Anaya stopped talking nonsense with Joshua.
Sammo understood her order and rushed toward Joshua with a bark.
Joshua felt that Sammo was dirty and worried that it would touch him again, so he finally pushed the door open and left.
It was already midnight when Anaya dried Sammo‘s hair.
When Anaya was free, she took out her phone to send a message to Aracely.
“Were you the one who removed the trend today?”
Aracely quickly replied.
“What? What do you mean? My mom brought me to learn flower arts today, so I didn‘t check my phone.”
It wasn‘t Aracely?
Then who could it be?
Anaya quickly thought about Joshua.
The Maltz family cared about their reputation. They probably felt that the news was disgraceful, so they asked someone to remove it.
Anaya paused and asked Aracely to help her check the source of the news.
Although Anaya already had a suspect, she needed to confirm it.
Aracely‘s efficiency was high. The next morning, Anaya received a message from Aracely.
The news was made by Lexie.
Aracely was a little angry and sent several angry emojis.
“I have never seen such a shameless woman. She messes with my husband and yet she slanders me! Let‘s go to the hospital and hit that bitch!”
Anaya comforted Aracely, telling Aracely not to be impulsive.
The cards should be played at the right time.
Anaya had breakfast and drove to work
Tim handed over the information that she had asked for before.
“McKlein Inc. released news about the search for the agent in America. It is estimated that they will send a special agent to Boston to find a suitable agent in half a month.”
Meklein Inc. was an internationally renowned luxury brand, rooted in Canada. Not long ago, it released news that it was going to enter the domestic market and planned to go to America to find an agent at the beginning of next month.
Tim paused for a moment before saying, “Ms. Dutt, many companies in the country will fight for the agency for internationally famous brands like McKlein. With the current situation of Riven Group...”
Tim did not finish his words, but Anaya knew what he was going to say.
