Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U

Chapter 352 Stop Messing Around and Sleep Now

As sadness started to overwhelm Hearst, he said in a low and hoarse voice, "You know I won't betray you."

"I don't know!" Anaya was still struggling.

"Ana." With Anaya crying and struggling in his arms, Hearst had nothing to do but bear it stoically while kissing her

over and over again, trying to appease her a bit. "You've said that the most important thing to a couple is trust and

that you will always believe in me.

"I went out today because I had something important to do. I wasn't cheating on you. Can you trust me this once?"

"With you saying nothing, how can I trust you?" She gradually calmed down. "You can't ask me to trust you without

you making any effort.

"Who was the woman you met tonight? What did you do? These are just very simple questions. And yet, you

chose not to answer them. Do you think I can trust you with you behaving like this?

"Do you still remember what happened last time when I had an accident at the hotel and tried to keep it from you? I

ended up causing both of us to suffer a great deal, which wouldn't have been the case if I had told you the truth

right at the moment.

"Now, are you going to make the same mistake as I did at that time?"

Hearst did not answer.

He thought, it is different. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

What I encounter now is completely different from that incident.

That is because there is no way out at all this time.

He closed his eyes. But Anaya failed to see the loneliness and grief on his face due to the darkness in the room.

"The woman I met tonight is a doctor."

"Doctor?" Anaya poked her head out of his arms, still sounding tearful. "Are you feeling unwell?"

Hearst was quiet for a while before saying, "I... I suffer from sexual dysfunction. Giana Dudley is an expert at that.

That's why I reached out to her tonight."

He paused before adding, "If you don't believe me, check her out a bit yourself. Also, you can check out whether I

was with her in the hospital or not tonight."

Anaya was skeptical. "If you were in the hospital, would it take you so long?"

"Yes, she gave me a special treatment, which was slightly time- consuming."

Anaya frowned. And suddenly it dawned on her that Hearst hadn't asked for sex for days now. Every night he just

slept like a baby.

Anaya thought that Hearst was tired of it. But much to her surprise, Hearst was suffering from a male disease.

Now it all made sense.

Anaya hesitated for a moment and reached down.

Hearst stiffened at the touch and was so close to an erection.

Then he pulled her hand up, his throat dry. "What are you doing?"

"You're suffering from a male disease, right? I want to give you a massage to see if I can be of help a bit."

With that, Anaya reached down her other hand. But Hearst stopped her again. "Stop messing around and go to sleep now."

"I am not messing around. I want to help." She struggled to free her hands. But Hearst was holding her very tightly. She simply couldn't move at all. "Jared, let go of me.

"I know that men could be very sensitive about this. But it is between the two of us. I can't let you shoulder it alone."

"Sleep now." Hearst tucked her into his arms again.

However, Anaya seemed to be determined to help him. "Don't be shy. Let me check it a bit. Maybe I'm more badass than that female doctor."

After a short pause, he asked, "Do you want me to give it to you?"

"What?" Anaya was stunned.

Hearst lowered his head and nibbled at her lower jaw.

Anaya was caught off guard. His bite was gentle and warm, which made her limp at once and groan a bit uncontrollably.

Hearst chuckled in a low voice, with his chest trembling slightly and his voice sexy as hell. "Is it because I failed to satisfy you these

days and now you want it?"

Anaya didn't realize what he meant until now, with a blush rising to her cheeks. Then she hurried to push him away while turning her back to him and moving to the edge of her side of the bed a bit.

"Shameless."

She just wanted to help him, but Hearst made it look like she was a highly-sexed woman.

Then Hearst stretched out his long arm and pulled her back into his arms again. "Stop messing around. Now sleep."

Anaya, with her back to his face, nodded slightly.

After a while, she spoke again, "When is your next treatment? I will go with you."

He did not say no. "Next Saturday."

"Then let's get married on Wednesday before we go see the doctor."

The City Hall would provide its service next Wednesday.

Hearst asked rhetorically, "Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to recover?"

"Even if you were to have cancer, I would still want to marry you."

Hearing this, Hearst stiffened.

Anaya did not notice that something was off with Hearst. Instead, she turned over and hugged him. "Let's try some treatment now. If it doesn't work, we can consider adopting a child instead."

She chattered on as if she wanted to comfort Hearst. Hearst hugged her tightly while listening to her quietly.

He didn't fall asleep, not even after Anaya did.

The next day, the Lomas family visited them in the morning. And after they left, Aracely visited them with Catherine.

Aracely was here mainly because she wanted to send an invitation to Anaya.

"You and Winston are getting married next month?"

Anaya was extremely shocked at the invitation.

Aracely and Winston had only been dating for less than a month, and yet they were already preparing for their

wedding. "Right. I've known Winston for almost nine years. We know each other so well. Therefore, I wouldn't call

it a flash marriage." There had been a smile on Aracely's face ever since she was in the house. Right now, she

was sitting next to her mother, smiling from ear to ear. "Ana, what about you? When is your wedding with Mr.

Helms?"

"Why don't we rent a bigger place and hold a wedding ceremony together?"

Hearing this, Anaya brought to mind the illness that Hearst mentioned last night and thus hesitated a bit.

Catherine then glared at Aracely while saying, "Ana, just ignore

Aracely. It makes no sense that you two couples hold a wedding ceremony together. Just stick to your plan."

Anaya smiled so as to make the loneliness in her eyes hidden, "It's okay. Aracely only said that because we are

close to each other."

She did not know when the wedding between her and Hearst would be held.

Actually, all the while, she was the one who took the initiative to make their marriage happen, including meeting

parents, being wed in a civil ceremony, and the like.

At the thought of this, Anaya felt down right away.

It seemed that Hearst was lukewarm about their marriage.

It was okay that Hearst didn't want to take her to meet his parents since he wasn't close to them.

But the wedding too? How could he never discuss the wedding with her as well?

Even when Anaya proposed that they wed in City Hall last night, Hearst looked torn.

Anaya wanted to brush aside all this, thinking, he used to be the one who took the initiative to do everything. Now

it's my turn.

But oddly enough, the more she told herself not to mind it, the more dissatisfaction she was holding.

Noticing that Anaya wasn't in a good mood, Catherine left with Aracely shortly after.

As Catherine and Aracely left, they kept talking about the wedding. Then suddenly, Aracely thought of something.

"Mom, how did you know that Winston had a girlfriend before? He did not tell you about that, right?"

Catherine said lightly, "Since you like him, I have to ask around a bit for you, right?"

Aracely was moved. "Mom, don't worry. Winston and I will soon have a baby. You will have a grandson soon."

Catherine was speechless.

She still couldn't understand why Winston would fall for Aracely.

Catherine thought, would Winston break the engagement?
