Free Web NovelChapter 186: Want Money
Editor: Henyee Translations
"Miss Joan, what do you mean by threatening you? I’m just a little short on money and wanted to ask you for some money. Why are you so unreasonable?"
"How much do you want?" She could only blame herself for being too anxious and finding such a person to cooperate with. Joan calmed down and thought about it before saying into the phone.
"You should have said so earlier. I don’t want much. Transfer 200,000 first," Eric said without hesitation when he heard Joan agree.
" 200,000? Why don’t you rob money instead?" Joan said in disbelief as she listened to Eric.
"Isn’t it against the law to rob? Don’t worry, Miss Joan. The money won’t be wasted. If it weren’t for Anita and Miranda, I wouldn’t have become like this. I definitely wouldn’t let her off." Eric was furious at the thought of how Miranda had caused him to become like this. frёeωebɳovel.com
He didn’t have a way to look for Miranda now, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t look for Anita. From what he knew about Anita over the years, if he went to her and pretended to be pitiful and complained, she might change her mind.
"Don’t think I don’t know that you were chased out by Miranda. This matter has already spread. You still want to look for Anita? Do you think Anita still wants you?" Joan snorted at Eric.
"Miss Joan, you might not know, but after all, I’ve been with Anita for a few years. I know her mindset. Persuading her is a piece of cake," Eric said indignantly.
On the other end of the line, Joan smiled speechlessly when she heard Eric’s arrogant tone. Anita had already met someone like Owen. Why would she fancy a villain like Eric?
She really didn’t know where he got his confidence from, but she didn’t say that out loud. Eric coaxing Anita into changing her mind was what she wanted to see. If he couldn’t do it, then she wouldn’t lose anything. At most, she would find another way.
"Okay, give me your account number. If you can really do it, we’ll stick to our agreement. If you can’t do it, don’t call me again." With that, Joan hung up.
"No women are good. When they need me, they say good things every day. When they don’t need me, they throw me aside." After hanging up, Eric looked at his phone and cursed. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Eric knew where Anita went to school. When they were still together, Anita had always wanted him to pick her up from school, but he had been annoyed with her and had never been there that many times.
In that case, he would go to her school.
He had guessed right. As expected, he saw Anita at the school gate today. He just hadn’t expected Owen to send her to school, so when he saw this, he didn’t dare to appear directly in front of the two of them.
He just followed Anita from afar and watched her enter the mentor’s office. Seeing that she didn’t come out for a long time, he squatted by the side of the road and waited.
Anita didn’t notice when she came out of the office. She walked towards the laboratory with the information.
Eric waited for a long time before he finally saw Anita. He looked up and saw that there was no one on both sides of the road, so he quickly walked two steps and shouted after her, "Anita, it’s me."
"Who? Eric, why are you here?" Anita was shocked to see the person suddenly come out from behind her.
"Why are you here? Why are you following me?" Anita covered her chest and tried hard to remain calm as she looked at Eric again.
"Anita, I haven’t eaten all day. Can the two of us go eat first and then I’ll tell you?" Eric said softly.
Before he came today, he had specially put on the clothes Anita had bought him previously to remind her of their past.
"I’m sorry, I have to go to the laboratory. I don’t have time to eat with you. Just tell me what’s wrong," Anita said coldly without noticing Eric’s clothes or noticing his plaintive tone.
"Anita, I... Miranda and I have broken up. I realize now that the person I love the most is still you. Can you give me a chance?"
"Eric, what are you talking about? Love me, or are you here to make me disgusted?" Hearing Eric’s words, Anita glanced at him and said calmly.
"Anita, how could you say that? Have you forgotten that when the two of us were together before, you said you would always love me? Have you forgotten?" Seeing that Anita didn’t react to his words, Eric started to say what he had said before.
"Eric, why did the two of us break up? You betrayed me first. What? Are you going to come back to me because Miranda doesn’t want you anymore?" Anita said as she glanced at Eric in disgust.
