Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U

Chapter 7 Lexie Returns

Riven Group and the Maltz Group had a contract to sign. Anaya took half a day off and went to the Maltz Group with her colleagues. Meanwhile, she wanted to talk about the divorce with Joshua.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Entering the reception room, Anaya was told that Joshua had something to do and went out.

"Where did he go?" Anaya frowned.

The secretary knew that Anaya was Joshua's wife. After hesitating for a while, she said, "I can't tell you."

Anaya didn't make things difficult for the secretary. She asked, "Do you have his cell phone number?"

The secretary hesitated and reported Joshua's number to Anaya.

Anaya dialed the number.

Joshua's steady voice sounded. "Hello, who is that?"

"I am Anaya." Anaya asked, a little dissatisfied, "Where are you? Didn't you promise me that you would go to City Hall with me?"

Joshua was silent for a moment before saying, "Lexie has returned back today. I'll pick her up."

Anaya didn't waste any more time with Joshua and asked directly, "When are you coming back? Quickly settle the divorce with me."

"I have other arrangements with Lexie."

"What..."

Without waiting for Anaya to finish, Joshua hung up.

Listening to the beep, Anaya slowly tightened her fingers that held the phone. Joshua had been thinking about divorcing her for the past year. Now that he finally had his wish fulfilled, he actually attached more importance to picking up Lexie.

To Joshua, nothing could compare to Lexie Anaya felk tightness in her chest, but she quickly adjusted her mood.

If it was in her previous life, if Joshua abandoned her for Lexie, she would suffer for a few days.

But now, although she felt a little uncomfortable, she could ignore those feelings.

Since the person Joshua loved was not her, Anaya decided to get quickly divorced.

In this life, she would not give Joshua the chance to continue hurting her.

Joshua hung up the phone and looked up to see Lexie in a white dress dragging a lockbox towards him

Since Lexie went abroad to study three years ago, he had hardly seen her

Joshua missed Lexie day and night, but now that he met her, he did not feel the joy he expected

Instead, his mind was filled with the matter of Anaya wanting to divorce him

Just now, he directly told Amaya that he had come to pick Lexie up because he had selfish motives.

He wanted to see how Anaya reacted.

However, Anaya didn't care who he came to pick up. She only cared about the divorce, which made Joshua feel very uncomfortable.

Joshua wasn't sure what he wanted either.

But he knew that he disliked the feeling of being pushed away by Anaya

"Joshua, aren't you happy that I'm back?"

Lexie walked up to Joshua and waved a hand in front of his eyes.

Joshua returned to his senses and revealed a gentle smile. "How could that be?"

He rarely smiled at people, and Lexie was the exception

To Joshua, Lexie was not only his first love but also his savie

Lexie was the most important woman in his life.

It was good news that Anaya wanted to divorce him.

This way, he could be with Lexie in a proper manner. As he thought about this, Joshua didn't feel any joy.

Joshua tried hard to ignore the frustration in his mind and let his new assistant Alex take Lexie's

luggage. He held Lee's hand and said, "You haven't returned for three years. I'll take you around" Lexie sighed. "Yes, I haven't been back for three years. If Anaya hadn't put it in my suitcase."

Beliore sche couli inish spealing, Leie seemed to have jiost realized that che school not have sail this and immediately stopped

Even though she hadn't finished speaking, Joshua understood what she wanted to say. Lexie went abroad to study, and she should have returned last year.

However, on the day Lexie returned, Anaya had someone put something forbidden in Lexie's suitcase,

causing Lexie to be blacklisted and unable to retum home

It was also from them on that Joshua completely lost patience with Anaya.

Suddenly, he remembered what had happened last night.

He only listened to Jamar's one-sided story and determined that Anaya had cheated

Last year, he only heard Lexie's one-sided story and determined that it was Anaya who caused Lexie to be unable to return home.

When Joshua realized what he was thinking, his eyes became cold.

Joshua thought he was possessed. He actually suspected Lexie.

In this world, anyone could betray him, except Lexie

He confirmed this matter five years ago.

Failing to meet Joshua, Anaya retumed to the company with her colleagues.

As the sun was setting, Anaya walked out of the office building.

Her phone rang. It was a call from her best friend, Aracely. "Anaya, do you have time to have a meal with me? I'll show you something"

Aracely's voice was a little

"I don't think that it is a good thing judging from your tone."

"In short, come to me. I'm in the Royal Hotel. See you."

Before Anaya could refuse, Aracely had already hung up.

Aracely was still so energetic

The Royal Hotel was not far from the office building of Riven Group, and Anaya arrived in ten minutes by car.

As soon as Anaya entered the hotel, she saw Aracely covering her head with the menu and lying on the table.

A waiter came forward to Anaya and asked, "Miss, may I ask how many of you are?"

"My friend is inside."

The waiter nodded and retreated Anaya walked straight towards Aracely.

"When did you change your profession to be paparazzi? You look sneaky." Hearing her voice, Aracely jumped in fright. Then, she pointed at a table by the window and said excitedly and angrily, "Anaya, someone is seducing your husband Quick, go up and slap that mistress!"

Anaya looked in the direction Aracely pointed

At the dining table covered in a white tablecloth, a man and a woman sat facing each other, talking and laughing.

"Lexie looks quite pure." Anaya raised her eyebrows.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Aracely pulled Anaya to sit down. "She is dating your husband! Don't you

want to rush up and slap her?"

Anaya helplessly tapped her forehead and said, "We are all people with status. Don't be like a shrew."

Aracely grabbed her hand with one hand and touched her forehead with another hand. "Are you having a fever? In the past, Joshua had a female secretary by his side and you wanted to change her into a man. Now that his beloved is back and is so intimate with him, why don't you react at all?"

"Because I divorced him. It doesn't matter who Joshua is with"

"What? You, you, you, say it again. I didn't hear you clearly." Aracely felt that she must be hearing wrong

She had known Anaya when she was in junior high school, and she knew how much Anaya loved Joshua

After so many years, Anaya finally married Joshua. But Anaya divorced Joshua a year later. When they met last week, wasn't Anaya still praising Joshua for being handsome and charming? She even said that she would love him for the rest of her life.

Why did Anaya change her mind so fast?

Anaya poured a glass of red wine unhurriedly and said, "To be exact, we are about to be divorced. We

have signed a divorce agreement, and the only thing left is to get a certificate."

"Are you serious?"

"Otherwise?"

Aracely stared at Anaya for quite a while. Suddenly, she hugged Anaya and said happily, "You finally got over it! I told you long ago that Joshua was not worthy of you. But you didn't listen to me back then.

"When will you get your divorce certificate? I will take you to find young men. There are many kinds of young men, and there will always be one that suits you!"

"Forget it. I don't want to."

"Come on. I'll find the right man for you..."

Perhaps because Aracely and Anaya were too noisy, Joshua finally noticed them.

When Joshua looked over, he found Anaya was looking at him.

Their eyes met, and Anaya calmly turned her eyes away. Joshua sneered.

Anaya kept saying that she wanted to divorce him, but as soon as Lexie returned back, she couldn't keep calm and even followed him to the Royal Hotel

As expected, her resolute attitude before was just a pretense.

For some reason, Joshua felt his tense nerves relax for a moment.

"Joshua"

Hearing someone call him, Joshua came back to his senses.

"I'm talking to you, but you haven't answered me. What are you thinking about?" Lexie smiled gently.

"Nothing."

Joshua was a little upset that he had stared at Anaya for so long just now.

He answered vaguely, and Lexie could not help but look back, wanting to know what he was looking at just now.

Seeing Anaya, Lexie narrowed her eyes.

"Joshua, isn't that Anaya? just returned back today and haven't had time to inform her yet. Let's go over and greet her."

Joshua paused and agreed.

Anaya and Aracely were looking at the menu when two shadows were cast down.

"Anaya, long time no see," Lexie said with a smile on her face.

"Hey, are you on a date?" Anaya looked up at her.

"No, Joshua is just having a meal with me. Don't misunderstand."

"You are afraid that I will misunderstand you, but you bring him over to greet me? Are you threatening me?
