201 Truth
Outside the Li Mansion, Anna was waiting for her cab when a black limited edition sports car stopped in front of her.
Getting out of the car, Mike said, " Hop in. I'll drop you."
Ignoring him, Anna kept on scrolling through her phone.
" You will not get a cab here. Don't be stubborn and get in." Mike said.
" You don't have to worry about me. I'll manage." Anna said.
Mike frowned and said, " Will you get in on your own or do you want me to lift you?"
Anna smirked and said, " I don't think so Mr Mike wants to dirty his hands by lifting a filthy woman like me. I don't want to dirty your expensive sports car as well."
Mike froze. He closed his eyes to control his emotions.
As he was about to say something, a black Mercedes stopped in front of them.
Pulling the glass down, Li Singtan popped his head out and said, " Mike you can leave, I'll drop Anna."
Without waiting for Mike's reaction, Anna hopped inside Li Singtans car.
Mike smiled mockingly at himself as the car disappeared from his sight.
Only he knew how much he regretted saying those words to Anna that night. There was not a single day when he did not curse himself for blurting out such harsh words for her.
He was blinded with anger, jealously and sadness when he heard about her wedding. Realising that the love of his life had married someone else, he could not control himself.
He knew that he was wrong but Anna was also to be blamed for his behaviour. If she had told him about her marriage earlier, he wouldn't have reacted this way and they would've found a way to come out of that mess together.
Sighing to himself, Mike boarded his car and left.
....
Inside Li Singtan car.
" You've changed." Anna said to Li Singtan with a bright smile on her face.
Li Singtan smiled and said, " Yeah a bit."
Anna chuckled and said, " Not a bit Singtan, you've changed a lot."
Scratching his forehead, Li Singtan nodded his head helplessly.
" Ming is a very nice and beautiful. As usual Mr Li got the best for himself." Anna said.
Li Singtan cheekily smiled when Anna mentioned Xie Ming's name.
Anna laughed and said, " Look at you smiling like a fool."
Li Singtan smiled and said, " Many things changed after you left eight years ago."
" I know." Anna said.
" Anna I don't know what happened between you and Mike in his apartment that night but remember one thing, Mike and you are the same for Yutang and I. We aren't biased towards him or towards you. We treat you both equally." Li Singtan said.
Anna smiled and said, " I know."
Li patted her shoulder and said, " I knew you were in US all these years but I never told Mike or Yutang about it."
" You knew?" Anna asked.
Li Singtan nodded his head and said, " Ya. The day I joined Li Corporation, the first thing I did was to dig out some information about you. I have a rough idea about everything that happened after you flew back home that day. I also know that you broke all your ties with your father."
Anna kept staring at him I disbelief.
Li Singtan smiled and said, " The thing that I am not sure about is whether you are married or not. But I strongly feel that you are not."
Anna gulped in nervousness and said, " What are you Singtan? An undercover agent?"
Li Singtan laughed and said, " Well your friend is now a capable man. So don't even try hiding anything from me."
Anna chuckled and said, " You are scaring me Singtan."
" So tell me Anna are you married?" Li Singtan asked.
Anna lowered her head and did not say anything.
Li Singtan chuckled and said, " As I had expected. If you are not married and even Mike is single, what is stopping to people from getting back together?"
Anna sighed and said, " It's not that simple Singtan. Things are complicated between us."
" What complicated? There is nothing that a proper conversation cannot solve Anna." Li Singtan said.
Pausing for a while, Singtan said, " You people have already wasted so many years and I don't think so you should waste more time. Talk to him and sort out everything Anna the sooner the better. Yutang and I know how much you people love each other. How can we forget those hurtful days of our high school when you people used to feed us with dog food everyday?"
Anna chuckled and said, " Yutang use to frown and scold us."
" Sir we have arrived." The chauffeur said.
" Thankyou Singtan." Anna said.
Patting her head, Li Singtan said, " I'll send a car to pick you up. You don't have to take a cab."
Anna smiled and nodded her head.
" Think about it once Anna. I still feel thata proper conversation will solve everything." Li Singtan said.
Anna gave him a weak smile and nodded her head before getting down from the car.
