Anna tried to leave when she finished.

Wayne shouted, “Hey! Anna! Where are you going?”

“It’s none of your concern!” Anna was irritated. She then walked down the stairs and out of the hotel.

Wayne was right behind Anna as she stepped out of the elevator. Anna reacted quickly, closing the door to keep Wayne out. She soon arrived on the first floor.

Anna had already gotten into a car when Wayne stepped out of the other elevator and made his way to the front of the hotel.

When Wayne noticed she was sitting next to a man, he clenched his fist in regret and called her.

The limo then left the city center. Anna’s cell phone kept ringing and echoing in the car at that point.

“Are you not answering your phone?” Jacob, who was sitting next to her, asked.

Jacob shook his head, saying, “No, I’ll take you home. It’s late, and I’ll be worried about you if you do that.”

“I’m not doing this just to be polite to you, Anna.”
