    Chapter 356 Take Good Care of Her


    Joshua''s gloating tone annoyed Anaya a little. She said with a fake smile, "Mr. Maltz, you''reughing


    so happily at this time. It seems that the Maltz Group''s performance is quite good. I wonder if it is as


    outstanding as a quarter of its past. Is the group''s bank debt still increasing?"


    Joshua''s face instantly darkened. "You''ve got a sharp tongue."


    Anaya did not intend to talk nonsense with him anymore. She turned to leave.


    She straightened up. As her gaze swept across the car parked across the street, she suddenly


    stopped.


    If she remembered it right, the car was there when she entered.


    She narrowed her eyes as she shifted her gaze back to Joshua.


    "Mr. Maltz, I''ve heard that the Maltz Group still has some problems with the funds recently, but the bank


    refuses to lend any more loans..."


    "What do you want to say?" Joshua thought she was still provoking.


    "I can lend you some money."


    Joshua didn''t show a happy expression. Instead, his eyes became colder and colder. His fingers on his


    knees slowly tightened. "Are you humiliating me?"


    Anaya was stunned.


    She then remembered what she had just said.


    If Joshua''s friend had said this, then it might not have been a big deal.


    But she was his ex-wife who had a grudge against him. He could have easily misunderstood her.


    "I didn''t mean that," Anaya calmly denied, "I just need Mr. Maltz to do me a small favor."


    "What favor?"


    "Go with me to City Hall."


    Joshua''s heart suddenly sank as if all the blood flowed back.


    However, Anaya''s next words instantly calmed him down. "Sit there with me for a quarter of an hour."


    "What do you want to do?" Joshua examined her with a pair of dark eyes.


    "Mr. Maltz, you only need to say whether you agree or not." Anaya did not answer directly. "Help me


    with this small favor, and I can help the Maltz family solve the financial problem."


    She curled her lips and said, "Of course, you need to pay the interest."


    Joshua coldly refused. "I do not need your charity."


    Even if the Maltz Group went bankrupt, he wouldn''t ask Anaya for help, not to mention that his group


    was not on the dire strait yet.


    The Orbison family had lent him a sum of money, so the Maltz Group wouldn''t lose its power in Boston.


    When Anaya heard this, she thought that Joshua had rejected her request. She was thinking about


    how to force Hearst to show himself when she heard Joshua continue. "However, I can go with you to


    City Hall."


    Anaya was slightly surprised. "Why did you suddenly agree?"


    Joshua did not answer. He pushed open the car door and got off.


    He had heard that Anaya and Hearst were going to get married. The only reason why Anaya appeared


    here today was that she wanted to get the marriage certificate with Hearst.


    Anaya waited for so long, but Hearst did not show up. There must be something wrong with them.


    Anaya asked him for help probably to irritate Hearst.


    Since there was a chance to disgust Hearst and hamper their rtionship, why didn''t he do it?


    Right now, Joshua only wished that the conflict between them was intensified.


    The bigger the conflict between them, the more likely he would beat Hearst and rece him.


    Joshua got out of the car and went straight in.


    Anaya followed him.


    After entering City Hall, Joshua randomly found a ce to sit down.


    Anaya stood there, and her eyes were fixed on the door. She was looking forward to the man she was


    waiting for.


    Joshua looked at her absent-minded appearance and asked, "Have you investigated Hearst''s affair?"


    Anaya did not even look at him and casually said, "Giana has nothing to do with him."


    Anaya had given him this answerst time.


    Joshua was unwilling to ept her exnation and tried to induce. "These days, he often meets that


    woman called Giana. Aren''t you worried that something happened between them?


    "Men are all animals driven by desire. Hearst is surrounded by such a beautiful woman all day. How do


    you know if he slept with that woman or not?"


    The more he spoke, the more hecked propriety. Anaya finally nced at him with no smile on her


    delicate face. "Mr. Maltz, you sound so confident. Did you also sleep with Lexie before?


    "You said that you didn''t touch her at that time. Is it a lie?"


    Joshua was speechless and finally shut up.


    After a long while, he couldn''t help but exin. "I haven''t slept with her. I just kissed her when we were


    in college."


    Anaya didn''t care about his answer. Nor did she respond.


    Joshua watched her waiting for another man. He was quite upset and did not speak again.


    They waited at the City Hall for twenty minutes, and the one Anaya wanted to see never appeared at


    the entrance.


    Her heart sank bit by bit as if something was stuck in her heart. She was disappointed.


    "Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Maltz. Goodbye," she said, standing up.


    Then she saw a familiar figure appear at the door.


    He was tall and handsome. His features were all top-notch, so he stood out among the crowd.


    The dazzling sunlight shone at his back, so his face was blurred and dark, hiding his expression.


    Despite this, Anaya still felt a slight chill over his body.


    Seeing hime, Anaya wanted tough, but she still controlled herself.


    If she smiled, all her previous efforts were wasted.


    With a cold face, she walked to Hearst and stopped in front of him.


    He was nearly one foot taller than her, and she had to raise her head to look at him.


    "Mr. Helms, it''s almost eleven o''clock now. What are you doing here?"


    She deliberately changed the way she addressed him and showed a sense of alienation.


    Hearst nced at Joshua, who was behind her. The emotions in his eyes wereplicated.

    He asked lightly, "Have you got the certificate?"


    Anaya wanted to see his reaction and deliberately replied ambiguously, "We have been here for so


    long. What do you think?"


    Hearst''s gaze was solemn as he repeated the question. "Have you?"


    Joshua hade forward and stood beside Anaya, looking at Hearst.


    They had the same momentum, neither of them losing to the other. They were at loggerheads just


    standing together.


    Joshua wanted to hold Anaya''s hand, but he was worried that her resistance would expose the lie. He


    took a step forward and stood in front of Anaya, blocking her eye exchange with Hearst.


    His eyebrows rose, adding a bit of ostentatious bearing, "We have."


    Anaya was slightly dissatisfied with Joshua''s answer.


    She did not intend to answer Hearst''s question just now. She wanted to wait for him to bring upst


    night and to take back the words of breaking up when the time came.


    Now that Joshua interrupted, things would probably be troublesome.


    If Hearst beat Joshua up here, they would have to go to the police station.


    She was about to deny Joshua''s words when she suddenly heard Hearst''s clear and pleasant voice.


    "Take good care of her."


    In an instant, Anaya''s breathing stopped.
