Chapter 363 He Is Going to Get Married
Anaya was slightly surprised to see Leonard.
The bodyguard hired by Anaya followed behind Leonard and said apologetically to Anaya, "Ms. Dutt, I'm sorry. This gentleman said he is your father. I tried to stop him, but..."
Anaya noticed the bruise on his face. It was obvious that he had just been beaten.
It turned out that her father not only looked fierce but also was good at fighting.
"It's okay. You can go. Get your wound treated. I'll have Tim compensate you later."
The bodyguard nodded and left.
Anaya shifted her gaze at Leonard.
The tall, middle-aged man had already walked to the bed.
His facial features were straight, and his eyebrows were thick. He looked serious and intimidating.
Although Jayion said that the Malpas Family had been doing business legally for many years, Leonard still looked like an underworld figure.
He was the kind of person that would hit and shoot once he was angry.
He looked down at her, and his gaze made Anaya feel as if he was looking at a little animal.
He opened his mouth, and his voice was as loud as the tower bell. "Who hit you?"
According to his questioning tone, Anaya believed that if she said it, he would immediately summon people to kill the one who knocked into her car.
"I'm not injured."
As she said, Anaya raised her hand and wiped off the "wound" on her face.
Leonard saw this and frowned. "Are you pretending to be injured?"
If a timid person saw Leonard frowning, his legs might have gone soft.
However, Anaya knew that Leonard only looked a little ferocious, and his heart was easy to melt. So, she was not afraid. She calmly replied, "Well, something happened recently. I need to pretend." "Is it related to Jared?" Leonard thought for a moment.
"How do you know?" Anaya was stunned.
To her surprise, her father, who looked rude, was actually sensitive.
"Jayion told me that you are dating him. I got to investigate Hearst, but you two have not been together recently."
As Leonard said, he sat down on the bed.
The narrow bed looked smaller with his nearly 6.2 feet tall stature.
"Did you have a conflict with Jared?"
"Yes."
"That bastard abandoned you?"
Leonard seemed to be a little angry, and the way he addressed Hearst had changed.
Anaya shook his head. "Not really. It seems that something has happened to him, and he has been avoiding me and wants to break up with me."
"Is there any difference?" Leonard summarized, "If you don't want to break up with him, I will have people kidnap him and keep him at home with you." Anaya did not know what to say.
She thought his father was not only protective towards her, but also like a bandit.
"No. I will handle the things between him and me myself."
She had heard from Jayion that although the Malpas family had some power overseas, they were less influential than Prudential Group.
If Leonard kidnapped him and the two families conflicted, it would be hard to deal with it.
Leonard still wanted to say something, but she quickly changed the topic. "Mr. Malpas, why are you here today?"
Hearing this, Leonard's face darkened.
Anaya didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that this strong man looked somewhat sorrowful.
"I got the paternity test result." Leonard held his phone and showed an electronic version of the report to her. "You forgot it?"
He thought, / have been thinking about this matter every day, and my daughter forgot that?
Anaya guessed the reason why Leonard was unhappy and instantly said, "I didn't forget. It's just that I have a lot of things to do these two days, so I didn't have time to get the result." Hearing this, Leonard's face lit up.
Anaya wanted to laugh.
She thought her father was quite easy to handle.
She looked at the report and it was as expected.
Leonard was indeed her father.
She was still looking at the paternity test when she heard Leonard say, "Fanny."
The daughter of the Malpas family was called Fanny Malpas.
"Mr. Malpas, just call me Ana." Anaya felt awkward when she heard this name.
Leonard hesitated for a few seconds, nodded, and then said, "You too, just call me dad." Anaya was lost for words.
She didn't expect him to say that.
Leonard continued, "Ana, Jayion told me that you don't want to go back to Canada with us?"
Anaya explained, "I still have things to do here. I don't have the plan to settle in Canada in a couple of years."
Leonard's eyes dimmed, and he did not speak.
Anaya unexpectedly saw sorrow on the face of Leonard, who was a rude old man.
It stunned her greatly.
She added, "But I have something to do in Canada these two days. I can go home with you."
Leonard's eyes lit up, and then he coughed to maintain his serious expression. "When are you setting off? I'll go with you."
"This afternoon."
"Okay, I will take you to lunch later. Let's go together."
"I have to go home and talk to my grandfather, so I may not be able to have lunch with you."
Leonard's eyes dimmed again.
Anaya instantly said, "After I go to Canada, I can spend more time being with you and Mrs. Malpas... you and my mother."
Leonard looked happy again. Alright!"
Anaya was speechless.
She thought it was easy for her father to buy her words.
Anaya removed her makeup, got changed, and returned to the Dutt's house.
She did not hide anything that had happened between her and Hearst. Adams personally called Hearst, but he couldn't get through either.
Adams felt a little uneasy. "Jared is not someone who would do such a thing. Did something happen?"
Anaya said, "I have been investigating this period of time, but I have not found anything. I will continue to investigate after I get to Canada. If there is any news, I will inform you immediately." Adams nodded. "Safe travel. I will handle the company. Don't worry."
They chatted for a while. Anaya casually packed up some clothes and boarded the plane to Canada with Leonard.
When they arrived at Canada's airport, they did not waste time and directly went to the Helms' manor.
After arriving, they found out that Hearst did not return to this place.
They could only return to the Malpas's house.
On the way back, Anaya got out of the car and bought some water.
The queue to pay was not long. There were four or five people.
Anaya walked over to line up. The female high school student in front of her seemed to have seen something shocking. She quickly nudged her companion and exclaimed, "Look at this!" Her companion looked at her phone and shouted, "He's handsome!"
Their behavior made Anaya want to laugh.
"That's not the point!" The female high school student rolled her eyes at her companion. "Look at the title! The CEO of Prudential Group is getting married!"
After hearing that, Anaya's smile froze.
