Chapter 84

Chapter 84 I’ll Buy it for You

Joshua frowned when he heard this.

When they were in the car, Bria had been telling Lexie about the “Dew.” He felt annoyed, so he casually said that he would buy it for Lexie and asked them to go back to discuss it.

Why did Bria understand it this way?

Hearing Bria’s words, Anaya raised her eyebrows. “Is that so? Then let’s see who bids higher later.”

Bria was so confident. Anaya was hesitating whether to bid too and make Joshua pay more later.

Anaya was lost in thought when Hearst, who had been quiet, spoke lightly. “You want to have that dress?”

“Huh?” Anaya turned to look at him. “Yes, I do.”

She was not interested in this dress, but she still wanted to raise the price.

“I’ll buy it for you.”

Joshua, who was opposite him, instantly put on a grim look and stared at the two of them.

He had no intention of buying this dress.

However, now, he changed his mind.

Anaya knew that Hearst always kept his word, so she hastened to say, “No need. I’ll buy it myself.”

Hearst did not respond.

Bria said in a mocking tone, “Anaya, do you think I don’t know the current situation of the Dutt family? Adams has collapsed, and Frank has been missing. At such a tense stage, how can you still have the money to compete with us?”

“To fight for dignity. It’s worth it.” Anaya deliberately provoked her. “If you bid 160 thousand dollars, I will bid 1.6 million dollars. If you bid 1.6 million dollars, I will bid 16 million dollars. I am very curious how much Ms. Dunbar is worth in Mr. Maltz’s eyes?”

Since Bria had already said that Joshua would buy the dress no matter how much it cost, what was there to be afraid of?

Anaya could just raise the price as much as possible.

Anyway, she wouldn’t be the one to pay in the end.

Bria shouted, “Of course it’s priceless! Lexie is the person my brother cares about most!”

“Really?” Anaya looked surprised. “Since she is priceless, why did Joshua give up on her for 800 million dollars a year ago?”

Bria became speechless, and Lexie’s expression also darkened.

Bria tried her best to save her face. “At that time, the Maltz family borrowed as much money as possible. In the end, 800 million dollars were missing. If they couldn’t get that sum of money, all the other efforts would be in vain. There would be more losses other than that…”

“Alright, I already know how much Mr. Maltz loves Ms. Dunbar,” Anaya interrupted her and said lazily. “I wish the priceless love of your brother and your future sister-in-law can last forever.”

Then, Anaya and the two people beside him left.

Bria held Joshua’s hand and complained, “What kind of attitude is that? Anaya is so mean. We don’t owe her anything. Joshua, you…”

Joshua glanced at her indifferently. “Do you think you haven’t done anything wrong to her in the

past year?”

Bria was lost for words and shut up.

Many people gathered at today’s business banquet. They were all in the same circle. So, it was inevitable to socialize.

A few rich young ladies asked Anaya and Aracely over to have a chat. They were all women, so Anaya did not bring Hearst.

“Mr. Helms, excuse me.”

Hearst complied and watched her walk away.

“Tsk, enough staring. If you keep looking at her like that, you may scare her.”

Hearst turned around, Martin walked out from the crowd and smiled at him, revealing a frivolous

and sinister demeanor.

Hearst looked at him and asked, “Why are you here?”

*One of the models on the show today is my girlfriend.”

“Your last girlfriend was a female artist.”

“That was a long time ago.” Martin stopped in front of him. “I seem to have seen Joshua just now.

if i had known that you would come, I would have asked that old man from the Hader family to

welcome you in a grand style and let you show off in front of Ms. Dutt.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Hearst ignored his teasing. “Where is Trevor?”

“Upstairs. Do you wanna talk to him?”

“Yeah, for business.”

The socialites gathered together mostly to chat about branded clothing, bags, and the latest

gossip.

Anaya and Aracely were both uninterested and parted from those people after greeting them.

Aracely had been looking for Winston in the venue just now, but she didn’t find him at all.

“Anaya, didn’t my brother say that he was coming over too? Why isn’t he here yet?”

I’m not sure. You may call him.”

Anaya and Aracely hadn’t contacted Winston since they met.

Aracely nodded and called Winston. Only then did she know that Winston was still working

overtime in the company.

“Winston, why do I feel like you deliberately keep me occupied?” Aracely asked in dissatisfaction.

A similar thing happened yesterday. Somehow, Winston mentioned a distant relative in the neighboring city and asked Catherine to take her to pay a visit.

*I have work to do, so I can’t leave,” Winston said in a gentle tone. “Have fun tonight.”

*Alright

After Aracely hung up. Anaya asked her, “What did Winston say?”

“He’s still working in the company.” Aracely put away her phone. “Anaya, let’s go to the show stage It’s boring here.”

Anaya responded and was about to go find Hearst and ask him to come along.

A waitress came over and asked, “Are you Ms. Dutt?”

Anaya nodded. The waiter continued talking, “Ms. Dutt, Mr. Helms asked you to wait for him

backstage. Please follow me.”

What does he want to do?”

“I’m not sure about it. You need to confirm it yourself.”

Anaya didn’t ask further and then said to Aracely, “Aracely, would you like to go together?”

Aracely smiled mockingly. “He only wants to meet you. Why should I go? Do I look that insensible?”

Anaya knocked on Aracely’s head. “Then you may go around yourself.”

“OK”

Anaya followed the waitress around and walked to the preparation room backstage.

The corridor was full of people, and the staff was very busy.

From afar, Anaya heard Bria’s unreasonable roar coming from one of the rooms. “What do you mean by being sold? The runway show hasn’t even started yet. Who can you sell the ‘Dew’ to? Is it because you think we can’t afford it that you deliberately don’t want to show it to us?”

As she approached, Anaya could still hear Lexie’s gentle voice. “Bria, don’t be angry. She is the person in charge here. She shouldn’t lie to us. Since the dress has been sold, just let go.”

“How can we let go? This person is clearly a snob! Joshua, look at him…”

“Enough!” Joshua said in a stern voice. “Mind your manners. You are a lady of the Aucher family, not a vulgar bumpkin. Don’t shout all the time!”

Anaya listened outside and felt somewhat amused.

Didn’t Joshua himself often shout hysterically at her?

He always acted like a gentleman in front of outsiders.

She walked to the door, and Joshua asked, “Who did you sell the ‘Dew’ to?”

Joshua showed a powerful demeanor. Facing his gaze, the person in charge felt frightened and answered, “It was bought by Mr. Helms for his girlfriend.”

Helms?’ Joshua’s eyelids twitched.

The next second, Anaya pushed open the door and walked in.

‘Hi’s quite lively here,’ she said with a smile.
