Revenge After rebirth (Mayra and Anderson) novel Chapter 46

Mayra followed Anderson to his study. The study had a retro ambiance and was decorated in dark hues. Her steps were muffled as she stepped on the wooden floor.

"Andy, what is it?" Mayra asked anxiously. She'd been to his study countless times in her previous life, so she knew the layout and the arrangement of his books precisely.

Anderson's study was important to him. He didn't even let Isabel enter. Yet, he made an exception for Mayra.

He strode over to his desk and sat down. Taking out a bunch of keys from his drawer, he placed it on his desk. "Arrange a time to move in. These are the keys to the mansion's entrance."

Mayra was flabbergasted. Staring at him with wide eyes, she was rendered speechless. Did he just ask her to move into the Barlow mansion?

She used to pester him to let her stay with him in her previous life, but he had allowed it. Thus, she couldn't fathom her current situation. She hadn't even done anything yet.

Mayra was well aware of the Barlows' shrewdness and how they oppressed Anderson. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have survived a day with the Barlows. The Barlow family was nothing more than a nest of vipers.

All she wanted was to stay away from trouble. This time, she felt like refusing his offer. She wanted to try to live a life without him.

With her head hung low, she mumbled, "I'm sorry, Andy. I- I don't feel like moving in."

Anderson rose and approached her. He dropped his gaze, displeasure evident in his eyes. "What's your reason?"

"I'm already used to my current life."

He narrowed his eyes, his gaze darkening. "I want the truth. Mayra, don't lie to me. I don't like it."

He'd only become more upset if she told him something worse. The situation would take a turn for the worse then.

His statement made Mayra's head jerk up. Her pupils were dilated as she blurted out, "Why? Don't you wish that I could be on good terms with her?"

Was he trying to be considerate of her feelings? It made sense when he said she could ignore the Barlows since she didn't have to contact any of them. However, she was bewildered by his remark regarding Isabel.

Anderson and Isabel had been childhood sweethearts. He was completely smitten with her in his previous life.

Fearing that Mayra might hurt Isabel, he ordered bodyguards to protect Isabel at all times. This was a treatment that Mayra had never experienced before.

Now he spoke in a way that was as if there was some kind of discord between their relationship. Still, Mayra couldn't figure out what was wrong. What else had she overlooked?

She had already noticed his indifference toward Isabel when they returned from the amusement park. They no longer seemed as intimate as she had remembered.
