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 higherter.”


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


    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 copsed, and Frank has been missing. At such a tense stage, how can you still have the


    money topete with us?”


    “To fight for dignity. It’s worth it.” Anaya deliberately provoked her. “If you bid 160 thousand dors, I will


    bid 1.6 million dors. If you bid 1.6 million dors, I will bid 16 million dors. 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 dors 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 dors 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 saidzily. “I


    wish the priceless love of your brother and your future sister-inw canst forever.”


    Then, Anaya and the two people beside him left.


    Bria held Joshua’s hand andined, “What kind of attitude is that? Anaya is so mean. We don’t


    owe her anything. Joshua, you…”


    Joshua nced 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.


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    A few rich youngdies asked Anaya and Aracely over to have a chat. They were all women, so Anaya


    did not bring Hearst.


    “Mr. Helms, excuse me.”


    Hearstplied 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.”


    “Yourst 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 woulde, I would have asked that old man from the Hader family to


    wee you in a grand style and let you show off in front of Ms. Dutt.”


    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 thetest


    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 wasing 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 thepany.


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


    A simr thing happened yesterday. Somehow, Winston mentioned a distant rtive 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 thepany.” 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 toe 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 roaring 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 ady 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.
