Chapter 844 The Cruel Truth

Chapter 844 The Cruel Truth

Anna slapped Bryce's face as hard as she could, mingled with the cold wind in her ears.

Faced with the slap, Bryce looked helpless.

"Tell me, was last night's incident... was it really arranged by you? Did you call Jimmy to the hotelroom? Did you intentionally make me drunk... was it also part of your plan?"

Anna burst into tears and angrily demanded, "Why?"

She was anticipating an answer, but at the same time, she was afraid of it. She even hoped thatBryce would tell her that everything from last night was forced upon him by Jimmy and he had beenthreatened.

But... but just now, Anna saw a scene that clearly told her Bryce had no love for her at all.

The tears on Anna's face and the pain in her eyes made Bryce's guilt even stronger.novelbin

I don't want to hurt such an innocent little girl myself, but unfortunately...

She's known my true nature anyway. I'll just do something more outrageous to make her totally giveup on me.

Thinking of that, Bryce parted his lips.

"Yes, everything that happened last night was arranged by me. I'm sorry."

Although his words were brief, it hit Anna like a bolt from the blue.

The only small hope in her heart was shattered in an instant.

Then she gave another slap across Bryce face as hard as she could.

"Why do you have to do this? Do you know that your actions have completely... completely ruinedme? You will make me live in pain for the rest of my life."

Anna's voice trembled, and only a little stubbornness and pride remained to support her body.

"I..." Bryce sighed. "If possible, I would like to compensate you with something else."

Bryce said sincerely.

"Compensation?"

Anna suddenly burst into laughter.

"You are indeed buddies, birds of a feather, and you will have retribution."

Anna cursed angrily and then turned around and ran away.

Watching Anna's painful departure, Bryce had a bitter expression on his face.

He thought about pursuing Anna, but was afraid that she would misunderstand his intentions, soBryce hesitated for a while and ultimately decided against it.

He hoped that it could make her completely give up on him.

"Jimmy, for your lifelong happiness, I suffer a big loss. I hope you can seize the opportunity and winher over as soon as possible."

Anna ran into the practice room's restroom crying. Looking at herself in the mirror with a disheveledappearance and swollen eyes, Anna was filled with self-mockery. "Anna, how ironic it is that youalways thought you found the gentlest and most affectionate boyfriend in the world but what's theresult? He cruelly pushed you to his buddy."

"No, I won't let you get away with it. You will receive punishment." Anna immediately took out herphone and prepared to call 911.

"Anna, what are you doing?" Mia's voice rang in Anna's ears.

"I..." Mia walked up to Anna and saw her dress covered in wrinkles which made her curious.

"What happened? Did things get too passionate between you and Bryce last night?" Mia joked butquickly realized that something wasn't right about Anna's emotions.

"Mia..." Facing her only good friend, Anna hugged her directly and burst into tears as if she wantedto cry out all of her grievances.

Not knowing exactly what had happened yet seeing how upset Anna was left Mia confused but shestill patted on Anna's back while comforting her by saying soothing words.

After crying and slowly regaining color back into her pale face, Anna walked to the lounge with Mia'shelp.

Mia poured a cup of coffee for Anna before handing it over to her.

"Drink some," said Mia softly. "It can help calm yourself down."

Anna thanked her before taking a sip from the bitter coffee which matched perfectly with how shefelt at this moment - not even a hint of sweetness could be tasted from within it.

Only after making sure that Anna had calmed down did Mia sit next to Anna and ask gently, "Whathappened? Why did you come back looking like this? Did things not go well last night?"

Mia carefully chose each word because she already guessed that Anna's pain must have beenrelated somehow or another to Bryce.

If there was any misunderstanding between them, then great! Without Bryce around Anna, I caneasily step on Anna wherever I want without any consequences whatsoever!

Immersed in pain at this moment, Anna didn't notice that evil glint hidden deep within Mia's eyes.

"I..."

Anna hesitated in the face of her concerned friend's questions. Although she and Mia were goodfriends, she didn't want to bring up the humiliation that had happened to her.

"Bryce and I broke up," Anna said calmly, her sweet voice tinged with pain and sadness.

They really broke up?

Mia secretly rejoiced, already imagining herself stepping on Anna.

"Why did you break up? Weren't you celebrating your birthday together last night? Anna, is there amisunderstanding? Maybe... maybe you can listen to Bryce's explanation before saying the word'breakup' so easily," Mia pretended to comfort her.

A faint bitterness crept onto Anna's pale face. "I saw him flirting with another woman."

Anna spoke lightly but the pain in her eyes grew stronger.

"That's really too much. He is your boyfriend. How could he be with other women? He is just ascumbag of our time! When I see him, I will definitely teach this scumbag who bullied you a lesson!"

Mia acted as if she was standing up for Anna which gave Anna some comfort.

"Don't mention him again. In my future life, he won't appear again. I want... to leave the company,"Anna said firmly.

"Leave?"

Mia was surprised by Anna's decision.

"Anna, you can forget about that jerk but don't joke about your career! If you leave J. SEntertainment, then you'll lose your chance to make it big in entertainment industry! You can'tleave." Mia tried to persuade her.

Joke! How could this stupid woman leave?

Only when Anna was around could I use her against those obstacles blocking my way.

Deep inside Mia's slightly lowered eyes lay thick calculations.
