Chapter 140 No More Blood Transfusion This Time

“Are you home now?” 

Hearst‘s voice came from the phone, as pleasant as ever.

“Yes. Why?” Anaya continued to search for movies lising the remote. 

“Open the door.” 

Anaya tightened her grip on the remote. She had a presumption. 

She thought, didnt he say he would stay abroad for at least a week? 

Hes back already

She stood up and walked towards the entrance. 

She asked the man on the other end of the line, “Are you at the door?” 

Hearst did not answer and waited for her to open the door to verify. 

Anaya approached the entrance, and for some reason, she had some anticipation. 

She opened the door. 

In the empty corridor, she saw nothing but a small bottle of candy on the ground. 

“You are not back?” Anaya bent down and picked up the bottle. 

“No. I‘ın still in Las Vegas.” 

Anaya leaned against the door and could not help but smile, “Mr. Helms, since when do you make those small jokes?” 

“Samuel said I should keep you at arm‘s length. That‘s the way to attract you always.” 

Anaya teased, “He sounds like a relationship therapist.” 

“Then tell me, were you looking forward to it just now?” She heard his pleasant, low laugh from the phone. 

“Have a guess.” Anaya fiddled with the bottle in her hand. 

“I think you were expecting me.” 

Anaya refused to admit it. She said, “Mr. Helms, you‘re reading too inuch into it.”
