Chapter 485 Hear You In Person


    The next day at StarTech Co. Ltd, Anna arrived at the lobby calmly.


    "Ms. Anna, are you here to see Director Shelby?" the receptionist asked with a smile.


    "Yes. I want to see him," Anna answered without any hesitation.


    She had read Jacob’s reply.


    However, she did not believe it!


    If he wanted to say that he did not like her, then he should tell her in person. She would not ept it


    in sheer cold texts.


    "Alright, I''ll let Director Shelby know." The receptionist made a phone call to the director’s office


    immediately.


    Soon, she gazed at Anna regretfully, “Ms. Wright, I''m sorry, but Director Shelby is in the middle of


    something. I''m afraid he can''t see you now."


    Anna''s hands clenched slightly into a fist.


    ''Jacob is busy?


    ''Is he really busy? Or does he just not want t o see me?’


    "Anna, why are you here?" A somewhat surprised voice arose at that moment.


    Seth was walking towards Anna.


    Before Anna had the chance to speak, he had already given off a somewhat embarrassed


    expression. “Hey, I-I was so busy yesterday that I forgot to call you. But don''t worry, I''ve rebuked


    that durd for you! He asked me to convey his apologies. He really didn''t mean it when we were at


    the airport."


    Anna gave off a smile, but she looked worse than when she was crying, "Is that s o?"

    "Of course. Anna, you''re such a marvelous girl. nchett is nothingpared to you!" Seth


    nodded.


    Anna lowered her eyes. She then said after a long time, "You don''t have to lie to me. I asked him


    personally, and he said he never liked me.”


    Seth swallowed all words he was about to utter immediately, and he chuckled awkwardly, "That


    nk Jacob... He''s still as direct as usual. Hahaha.”


    Seth’s awkwardughter echoed in the lobby.


    Anna stared at him in silence.


    Seth took back his smile gradually. He then cleared his throat and said, "Shall we talk : n the corner


    over there?"


    He pointed to a small space that specially opened up in the corner of the lobby.


    "Okay." Anna pursed her lips and agreed to it.


    The two sat down. Seth cleared his throat again and said, “Anna..."


    "You don’t have tofort me, I can take : t." Anna asserted in a calm voice that Seth could not


    understand. "I just want to hear him reject me in person."


    Seth sighed, "But why?”


    Anna gave off a wry chuckle, "It has been four years... I''ve loved him for four whole years. I-I won''t


    be able to reconcile my defeat if I don’t get his rejection in person. I must figure it out no matter


    what:


    Anna usually looked carefree, but at that moment, a hint of fragility could be seen in her fatigue


    eyes.


    Seth felt a little ufortable as he gazed at her. He could not help but say, "I''ll go get Jacob..."


    As soon as he said so, the receptionist''s voice could be heard.


    "Director Shelby, why are you here? Ms. Wright is waiting for you over there.” The receptionist


    pointed at Anna''s location.


    Anna stood up immediately and stared at Jacob with her big eyes.


    A faint hope shed through her eyes.


    Jacob... came to see her after all. Did this mean that Jacob still could not let go of her after all?


    At that moment, an enthusiastic voice pierced through the crowd in the lobby.


    “Shelby, did youe down to pick me u p?" nchett walked in from the door and she was


    looking at Jacob with surprise now.


    The hope in Anna''s eyes was instantly swallowed into darkness.


    She clenched her fists tightly.


    nchett!


    Jacob came down to see this woman?


    She thought...


    Jacob saw nchett and a slight surprise shed through his eyes. He did not know that nchett


    would be here at this time.


    nche was already walking towards him and enthusiastically wrapped around


    Jacob''s arm.


    Jacob wanted to avoid it, but thinking that Anna was still watching at the side, he endured it.


    nchett managed to hold Jacob’s arm. Her eyes glistened with a hint of glee." Shelby, are you


    free today? I just came to Canada and I''m fairly unfamiliar with the people and the ce. Can you


    take me around?"


    Jacob pursed his lips and nced towards the direction where Anna was.


    Anna just stood there, staring at the two of them without even a single blink.


    nchett followed Jacob''s sight and saw Anna too.


    She could not help but say surprisingly, "M s. Wright, you''re also here! Are you here looking for Mr.


    Leeds? The rtionship between you two is really good. I truly hope that in the future, Shelby and I


    will have such a good rtionship too."


    "Hey, what are you talking about?” What nchett said was baffling and


    inexplicable, and Seth could not help frowning.


    "Why? Did I misunderstand?” nchett looked astonished, "I think, Mr. Leeds, you have always


    been very enthusiastic for Ms. Wright. Oh, are you still in the pursuing stage? Oh my God, I''m truly


    sorry, I shouldn''t have said it out loud.”


    Seth was left speechless.


    Bah, he was pursuing Anna? What was this?


    Before Seth reacted to anything, Jacob had already taken back his gaze faintly. He looked at


    nchett calmly and said, "I just finished my work, let me take you around.


    "Okay, thanks, Shelby," nchett said cheerfully.


    Anna was a little anxious. She walked over and grabbed Jacob, "Jacob, don''t listen to her


    nonsense, there''s nothing between Seth and me."


    "Yeah. You should know me better than this. A big bust is a must, and Anna is still a bit short in that


    criteria, my minimum requirement is at least..." Seth started bbering once again.


    Anna could not help but re at him.


    Was this idiot helping her?


    With Anna''s re, Seth realized that the asion was inappropriate, and immediately shut his


    mouth obediently.


    "Puff, you two are really interesting.


    nchett could not help but chuckle.


    Jacob''s expression remained unchanged.


    "Jacob, don''t get me wrong, I..." Anna gritted her teeth and exined.


    Jacob interrupted her directly, "Anna, you''re the one who misunderstood. No matter what kind of


    rtionship you have with Seth, what does it have to do with me? I would even give you my most


    sincere blessing if both of you can really get together."


    With that said, Jacob brought nchett along and left directly.


    Anna stood there stunned as if she had just received a huge uppercut.


    Jacob! He! Truly did not care?


    Anna rushed to the door like a maniac. “ Jacob Shelby, you stand right there."


    Jacob stopped and gazed at her indifferently, "Anything else?"


    “You..." Anna condensed thest glimmer o f hope and nced at Jacob quietly. "It has been four


    years. You really don''t care about me at all?"


    “I thought I had already made everything very clear through the phone yesterday," Jacob replied


    unconcernedly.
