Revenge After rebirth (Mayra and Anderson)

Revenge 128

Mayra declined, saying, “Andy, I get carsick easily. Sitting in the front helps. “Before Anderson could say no, she had already taken the front seat.

Hailey suggested, “Let me drive instead.”

Anderson’s cold stare silenced her.

In the front seat, Mayra leaned against the car window. She managed to quell her discomfort during the ride. When they reached her school, she hurried out without a word to Anderson.

In her past life, Mayra wouldn’t have possibly tolerated Hailey. But her emotions were now mixed as she remembered that Hailey was the only one who stood by her in her previous life.

She didn’t particularly like or dislike Hailey. She just found her more favorable to Isabel, whom Mayra saw as a hypocrite -though Anderson seemed to prefer Isabel’s type.

Hailey’s self–control was lacking. Her body’s desires and her allergy to the drugs nearly overwhelmed her. Fortunately, the Barlow mansion had various medications, so she took the allergy pills in time. Otherwise, she might not have made it through the night.

“Mr. Barlow, could you please drop me off at the hospital?” Hailey asked. ” You can leave me by the road. I can get a cab from there.”

Anderson remained silent and instructed the driver to head to the hospital.

At the hospital, Hailey took blood tests and an allergy screening under a specialist. After her tests, she sat on a bench and closed her eyes to rest.

Vague memories from the night before surfaced. There were moments of warmth, but most of the time, it felt almost deadly. Anderson’s actions were those of a player -irresistible and inescapable unless he chose to end it.

Fifteen minutes later, the test results showed she had inhaled

hallucinogenic ether.

The doctor recommended she stay for further observation, but Hailey declined. She had a contract to finalize for an important project in Candor City. It was a lucrative opportunity eyed by many.

After the wound on her forehead was re–bandaged, Hailey left the hospital. She was surprised to see Anderson still waiting. She hesitated but

eventually got into the car. “Mr. Barlow

With his eyes closed, he asked, “What did the tests show?”

“Nothing serious. I got a shot, and fill be fine once the drug’s effects wear off.”

“You handled last night well. You’ll get more than what you deserve.”

“Thank you, Mr. Barlow.”

With a businessman, it was more practical to talk about interests rather than feelings. Anderson could offer money to any beautiful woman but never his feelings.

In the meeting room, discussions centered on securing the latest Candor City project, which would result in the largest mall in the city. This would increase Everton Corporation’s annual profit margin by 11%. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Candor City, as the biggest economic development zone, presented significant competition. However, Anderson was confident in winning the commercial development rights.

After the meeting, Shane informed him, “Mr. Barlow, Madam Sonia has arrived”

Outside the president’s office, a secretary approached while carrying a tray. “Mr. Barlow.”
