“Are you really planning to let me go?” Miya asks tentatively, but to her surprise, Anson nods at her.
“If you really want to leave, I won’t stop you. I will even send you off personally.”
“Are you being serious? I hope you don’t capture me again after you have let me go. I hate people who
go back on their words the most.”
Anson simply shakes his head, “I am not the type to impose my will on someone. If you think that
you’re suffering by staying here, I will grant you your wish to leave. However, you must tell me, where
do you plan to go after leaving this place?”
“Of course, I would go…” Miya initially wants to say that she would return to Alex’s place, but she
suddenly recalls that he is probably still inside that bar. When she remembers everything, she is
suddenly overwhelmed by sadness. Her words are caught in her throat, not able to find their way out.
Anson detects Miya’s silent demeanour and her forlorn expression and decides that he wouldn’t
continue to pursue this topic.
“Driver, prepare the car.”
Miya doesn’t expect that he would repeat what he has said just a moment ago, “I’ll send you off.”
On the way, Miya is concentrated on being cautious at every second. She is really scared that he would
do something nasty to her. It is only until the car rolls to a stop that she finally realizes that she has
been thinking too much.
“I would really want to protect you, but I know that you don’t want to stay by my side. So, I hope you
can remember one thing. No matter what happens, you can always come back to look for me. As long
as you don’t mind it, I will always be there for you.”
As he utters these words with emotion, she finds herself slightly touched by his words.
“Actually, we have only known each other for a few days, so why are you making such a big promise to
me? I am not someone who is worthy of your attention and efforts, since I’m a married woman in the
first place. What’s more, I already have three children. No, make that four.” She almost forgets about
Susanna.
At the same time, she can’t comprehend the fact that he is being so nice to her. He must either be
harboring some motives towards her or…
He must really her, and he would sacrifice himself for her.
“Since I have already sent you back to the hotel, then let me accompany you in too.” Anson flashes a
bitter smile.
Miya immediately rejects him, “There’s no need for that. You have already done a lot for me by sending
me here, and to round things off, there is no way I can repay your kindness. I don’t want to be indebted
to you even more, and I hope this is the last time we are seeing each other.”
After saying that, she turns around mercilessly. She doesn’t want to have anything to do with this man
at all. Because of him, a misunderstanding has inadvertently formed in between Alex and her.
Miya doesn’t head straight to her room. Instead, she hides herself at an inconspicuous corner to
confirm that Anson would leave. She doesn’t want to risk getting tailed by him without her knowledge.
After some time, Anson is seen leaving the hotel.
Since he has already left, then the first thing she must do is to look for Alex at that moment.
Alex should not be in this room anymore. She must look for Alex to clear the misunderstandings.
Therefore, Miya hails a taxi and returns to that bar. This time, she finally sees Alex’s figure immediately
after she has arrived at the bar.
Just when she is about to go in, she realizes that Alex has bruises all over his face, and the corner of
his mouth is dripping with blood.
At the sight of this, Miya rushes over towards him without caring about anything else. Before she can
reach him, she sees him getting into another fight with a man. The whole place is in a complete mess.
However, when Miya tries to get a good look at the man brawling with Alex, terror grips her heart. That
person is none other than Anson, who has just sent her to the hotel but is now at the bar to fight with
Alex.
Miya is so anxious at the moment as she watches them brawling. The moment Anson’s fist is going to
come into contact with Alex, she rushes out without hesitation and positions herself in front of Alex. At
that moment, she comes to a conclusion that she doesn’t want to see Alex getting hurt anymore.
Anson is initially full of anger and fury. Just when he is going to launch a fist at Alex, he suddenly gets a
glimpse of Miya who is now guarding Alex. He retrieves his fist as he asks, “Why are you here now?
Why are you so foolish? This guy is too despicable. He’s not worthy of you…”
“This is my business and none of yours. Why do you have to hurt him? Don’t you know that if you hit
him, I’m the one who’s hurting inside?” Miya howls at Anson.
Alex is gaping at Miya with shock in his eyes at the moment.
After a pause, Alex suddenly looks like he remembers what he is going to do as he shoves Miya to one
side, “Get out of the way, I need to have a good fight with him!”
In the end, he ignores Miya’s objection as he proceeds to fight with Anson anyway. He doesn’t care
about anything else in the world as he gets into another brawl with Anson.
Miya is riddled with anxiety, but when she recalls the image where Alex has shoved her away, an
indescribable sorrow grips her heart. However, she knows very well the paramount thing to do is to
separate the two of them.
“I beg you guys to stop this at once. Don’t bring any more pain on me, alright? Anson, stop hitting Alex,
please?” Miya is wailing when she is pleading.
Anson’s focus immediately wanes when he hears Miya’s sorrowful cries. When he saw her just now,
his instincts were telling him to console her and to explain to her everything from the beginning. He is at
this bar at the moment because he wants to look for Alex and bring him back to Miya, knowing that
Miya would be saddened greatly all alone in her hotel room. However, he doesn’t expect that the two of
them would start a fight after not being able to see eye to eye with each other.
Since Anson has been distracted, he is now at the receiving end of Alex’s blows. He had the upper
hand just a moment ago.
At that moment, Miya recalls the blood stains on the floor of the bathroom in their hotel, which confirms
her suspicion that he is already injured in the first place. Alex can’t aggravate his injuries now, so she
wants to step forward to pull them apart and help him. Despite that, Anson is the one getting bashed at
the moment. Alex only stops his rampage after he is satisfied with beating up Anson.
Miya is also stunned at that moment because Alex seems like he can’t process even one word from
her. In contrast, Anson seems to heed her words greatly.
“Are you fine? Are you injured anywhere?” Miya moves forward to show concern towards Alex, but she
is pushed away coldly by him.
