Chapter 891 Hitting Her
Mia thought that she had “handled” Anna and that Anna would continue to listen to her as before. But she did not expect Anna to question her in a very cold voice.
The sudden questioning made Mia pause for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.
“How could I possibly use you? Anna, are you being too sensitive? I just think that forming a group is our first step into the entertainment industry. But now the company hasn’t made any decisions yet, so I suggested you talk to Bryce or Mr. Harrison.”
Mia spoke calmly and logically, but Anna was convinced that Mia apologized with a ulterior motive.
“I’m full now and it’s about time we head back,” said Anna without much appetite.
Mia nodded in agreement with her suggestion. When she was about to call over the waiter and pay the bill, Anna put some cash on the table in front of her.
“You lent me 100 thousand dollars, which is a huge help, no matter what happens between us. So let me treat you tonight,” Anna said lightly.
Although Mia didn’t object, there was still a smile on her lips as she replied, “We’re good friends; when you’re having difficulties, it’s only right for me to help out. I believe when I need your help someday in the future, you’ll be by my side too.”
She affectionately took hold of Anna’s arm as they left together like old times, except for one thing, in Mia’s eyes, there was a hint of disdain.
Anna noticed it and couldn’t understand why Mia forced herself to make up with her.
But Anna knew very well that she didn’t need a friend who always made use of her.
After paying their bill, they both left together from the late-night restaurant.
“Anna, I borrowed my cousin’s car today; why don’t I drop you off at your apartment? It might be inconvenient to hail a cab right now.” Mia suggested.
“I… don’t need that.” Anna smiled.
She thought, “If Mia finds out that I’m living with Jimmy, she might be on an emotional breakdown.”
“That’s okay. I’ll stay here with you until you can get one.”
“It really isn’t necessary; I can get one myself.”
But Mia insisted. Anna could only let her be. She tried to hail one, hoping to get rid of Mia as soon as possible, but no taxi passed by after half an hour.
Do I have to go back on her car?
When she was hesitating, her phone rang.
Anna pulled it out.
Mia intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the screen and although it wasn’t very clear, she could confirm that the number calling Anna was Jimmy’s number.
They were still in contact this late at night?
Mia clenched her fists and narrowed her eyes with a hint of jealous anger flashing through them.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“I’ll be back soon. I’m waiting for a taxi,” said Anna sweetly and gently on the other end of the line, pulling Mia out of her world full of jealousy and anger.
Seeing the completely genuine smile on Anna’s face made Mia tremble inside.
Could it be… could they really be dating?
Anna, you promised me that you would create an opportunity for me to meet Jimmy but now you’re secretly seeing him behind my back? You’re two-faced, despicable and lowly!
Mia kept cursing Anna in her mind non-stop.
“Don’t come pick me up anymore. I’ll be back soon. Just wait for me at home,” said Anna softly while deliberately lowering her voice so as not to let Mia hear what she was saying.
Although it sounded light and gentle enough, Mia heard it clearly and became more infuriated.
A malicious gleam flashed across Mia’s eyes as she thought, “Damn! They’re actually living together!”
Anna hung up quickly after their conversation ended.
“Who called? Is he your new boyfriend?” asked Mia insincerely, trying hard not to show how angry she was feeling inside
“Just a friend,” replied Anna calmly without wanting to tell anything about herself dating Jimmy
“I’m going ahead now see if there are any cars coming by; why don’t you go ahead first? Let’s meet tomorrow at work.”
Anna turned around readying herself to walk away when suddenly Mia grabbed hold of her wrists tightly.
“Anna, since we’ve been training together here at J. S. Entertainment, we haven’t had much time lying down on the same bed talking like before. Why don’t you invite me over your apartment so we can chat properly?”
Mia smiled and suggested, “Why don’t we hang out another day? I’m feeling a bit tired today and want to head back early.”
Anna looked a bit embarrassed. Her refusal only confirmed Mia’s suspicion that she was hiding something.
“Is there a man hiding in your apartment?” Mia asked casually. But when she saw Anna’s furrowed brow, she knew her guess was right.
Had Anna already moved in with Jimmy? Was that why she kept refusing to let Mia come over?
Facing Mia’s curious gaze, Anna simply pursed her lips and said, “Mia, I really am tired. Let’s catch up at work tomorrow.”
After saying this, Anna walked away without looking back.
Mia got into her car but clenched the steering wheel in anger. She realized that Anna must be dating Jimmy and felt rage rise within her.
Anna, if you don’t want me to be happy, then I won’t let you be happy either! I’ve been trying so hard to please you but you never appreciate it. Don’t blame me for teaching you a lesson!
With these thoughts running through her mind, Mia started the car and stepped on the gas pedal.
Anna sensed something was wrong and turned around just as the car came hurtling towards her. She instinctively ran forward but Mia’s car speed only increased.
“What are you doing?” Anna yelled as loud as she could but it seemed like Mia had turned into an insane beast who wouldn’t stop until she hit something or someone… and unfortunately for Anna it was herself who ended up being hit by the car with a loud thud.
As soon as they collided, Mia stopped the car quickly and jumped out of it almost immediately after seeing that Anna had fallen onto the ground.
Mia laughed at what had happened – there was an eerie look on her face which made people feel uneasy around her now more than ever before.
“This is what happens when someone messes with me,” thought Mia while looking down at Anna lying on the ground.
Her eyes glinted maliciously; however, she didn’t forget to check if anyone else saw what happened before slowly reaching down towards Anna’s nose…
