Chapter 871 I Will Repay You for This Favor
Although she couldn’t remember, Anna kept pestering Jimmy to tell her more about the past.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Jimmy’s face softened as he saw the anticipation in her eyes.
“Okay, I’ll tell you.”
With a seductive and captivating tone, Jimmy tenderly draped his suit jacket over Anna’s shoulders, then began reminiscing about their past fond memories.
Anna looked at him seriously, and even though many years had passed since these events, when Jimmy recalled them, Anna still caught a sparkling light in his eyes.
The magnetic voice, hitting her heart, stirred up layers of ripples.
Anna didn’t expect that Jimmy could remember the past so clearly.
“Are you surprised that I remember?”
Jimmy raised his eyebrows, with a glimmer of light shining in his eyes.
Anna nodded honestly.
“I know you would remember, but I didn’t expect you to remember so clearly.”
Jimmy smiled, curling his sexy lips. “I remember everything about us.”
His soft eyes remained fixated on Anna, never blinking.
The gaze that seemed to want to devour her made Anna’s heart skip a beat, and she quickly tightened the suit jacket on her body.
“It’s getting late, let’s go back. I… I’m a bit tired.”
Jimmy was not in a hurry to make Anna accept him. He knew that she needed time.
“Okay, I’ll take you home.”
Jimmy carefully held Anna’s hand and walked down the mountain.
After hearing about the childhood memories they shared together, Anna no longer resisted Jimmy so much when he held her hand and led her down the mountain.
She could clearly feel the warmth of Jimmy’s large hand and the sense of security he brought to her.
On the way back, Anna calmed down a lot, but she didn’t know how to face Jimmy’s burning gaze. She still turned her head to look out the window.
Originally, Anna wanted to return to her apartment, but she thought about Mia’s expectations of her and feared that Mia might come looking for her again. After much hesitation, Anna decided to go back to the Miller residence.
Jimmy directly took her back to the Miller residence.
Jimmy was the first to get out of the car, and he gentlemanly opened the door for Anna. His narrow eyes held a deep meaning as they fell on her. “Let me escort you in.”
“Um…”
Upon hearing Jimmy’s proposal, Anna almost choked on her own saliva.
She couldn’t imagine what would happen if her mom and money-hungry brother found out that Jimmy had brought her back home.
“It’s not… not very convenient,” Anna said, looking a bit unnatural.
Fortunately, Jimmy didn’t insist too much. His lips curved into a gentle smile.
“Get some rest early tonight,” he said.
Anna nodded and turned around. But after taking only a few steps, she stopped in her tracks. Her sparkling eyes landed on Jimmy once again.
“Thank you for arranging my dad to stay in the VIP ward and finding a nurse to take care of him so that my mom can go home at night. I’ll repay this favor,” Anna said with a slight curve of her red lips.
Jimmy smiled back at her with an enchanting smile that added some masculine charm to his demeanor.
“All right then, I’ll wait for it.”
These words pierced through Anna’s ears and made her face blush instantly with shyness as she ran inside.
As Jimmy watched Anna run away shyly, Jimmy’s face was filled with an evil charm while his softness never disappeared from his eyes.
…
As soon as they entered the hall, Mrs. Miller and Gavyn were sitting on the sofa waiting for them.
“Who brought you back? I think I saw your car outside just now,” Gavyn asked directly.
Anna frowned slightly,
Instinctively not wanting Gavyn to know about her being together with Jimmy tonight; she spoke softly, “A… a friend.”
“A friend?”
Gavyn walked up to Anna when he saw the specially tailored suit jacket she was wearing over herself; his eyes squinted slightly while greed surged beneath them.
“You were together with Jimmy today? Did you tell him about arranging me into the Harrison Group? What position is he going to give me as your big brother-in-law? Let me tell you something: ordinary positions won’t do! Otherwise just tell him so that I can become one of their department managers!”
Gavyn arrogantly spoke out loud thinking highly of himself while ignoring everything else around him except what benefits himself most.
A hint of sarcasm curved up on Anna’s red lips,
“The employees at the Harrison Group are all elites who won’t want someone who doesn’t know anything but causing trouble or bringing trouble.”
Anna’s eyes glinted with a hint of coldness. “You…” Anna’s sarcasm made Gavyn raise his right hand in anger. “Gavyn, stop it,” Mrs. Miller, sitting on the sofa, rushed over after seeing her son’s actions.
Gavyn snorted and his eyes flashed with anger. “I’m telling you, if you don’t satisfy me, I won’t let you and Jimmy off easily.” Leaving behind a cold threat, Gavyn walked towards his room.
Looking at her shameless older brother who had no skills but only knew how to bully his family members, Anna sighed helplessly.
Mrs. Miller pulled Anna to sit on the sofa. “Don’t argue with your brother like that; he is also…” When she mentioned her son, Mrs. Miller sighed helplessly; how could she not know what kind of person her own son was?
“Talk to that man nicely and give your brother a chance to learn from him; I believe he… he will change for the better.” Faced with her mother’s plea, Anna couldn’t bear to refuse and nodded reluctantly.
“Mom… did something happen when I was young? Did I forget something?” Anna tentatively asked as she looked into her mother’s watery eyes full of hope for an answer.
Perhaps not expecting that Anna would suddenly ask about her childhood memories, Mrs. Miller looked surprised but eventually told her daughter about the time when she went missing for some time.
Hearing the answer finally relieved Anna; Jimmy didn’t lie after all! She felt somewhat comforted by this revelation.
“So… where did I go during my disappearance? Who did I meet? And how did you find me?” With urgency in her voice and holding onto Mrs. Miller’s hand tightly as if seeking confirmation of what Jimmy had told her earlier about their past together.
Anna hoped that these questions would confirm everything Jimmy said earlier, but unfortunately, Mrs. Miller knew nothing about it.
