Chapter 427 Anna, you're such a bitch
Seeing the headline: [Anna and Giuseppe Bathtub Kiss.]
In the news, they were in a bathtub, Giuseppe shirtless, leaning in to kiss Anna, who was in a bikini, looking stunning.
[Wow! Anna and Giuseppe have private photos too!]
[Showing a different side!]
[Hope this couple stays together!]
[Hope they announce their marriage!]
[Is Ms. Stefanelli using her boyfriend to gain fame? Trending topics all the time?]
[Reply: Be more confident, I think so too.]
Comments were mixed, some good, some bad.
For a girl, such private photos aren't great!
Especially since she was planning to announce their breakup in a month!
Anna, angry and confused, put Penny down and took her phone to the backyard to make a call.
"Mr. Vittorio, why did you post that? It's clearly not me."
Her call was expected.
Giuseppe seemed ready, asking, "Going to Corystania to see Uncle Giorgio, why didn't you tell me?"
Anna, stunned, quickly explained,
"I didn't know Mr. Vittorio was on a business trip here. I met him after I arrived. Really. After meeting him, we had no interaction."
Not even a proper look, and he humiliated her.
Thinking of the scene, Anna still felt uncomfortable.
Giuseppe heard the disappointment in her voice, his tone low.
"I know, if there was interaction, I would've had an episode by now. I posted that on Instagram to remind you and Uncle Giorgio about the distance. As long as you keep the agreement, I'll let you go in a month."
Her relationship with Giorgio didn't need a reminder. He ignored her, even wiped his hands after touching her.
She didn't want to think about it anymore; it hurt every time.
She said, "Rest assured, I booked a flight back in two hours, we won't have any more connections."
She hung up and looked at the night sky.
Tonight's moon was particularly round, cold, and lonely.
Anna took a deep breath, turned to go back, but saw Giorgio standing not far behind.
He seemed to be on the phone too, a cigarette between his fingers, matching the night, cold and untouchable.
They were already a distant memory.
She composed herself, ready to walk past him.
"Not even a greeting? Looks like when you said no more connections, you meant it."
Giorgio's cold voice came through.
Anna paused.
He didn't need her greeting.
"I think Mr. Vittorio is very disgusted with me now, doesn't want to see me. Not disturbing him is respecting him, and making him comfortable."
"If that's the case, why appear in front of me?"
Giorgio asked, turned off his phone, extinguished the cigarette, and pulled her behind the trees.
"Let, let go!"
Anna never expected him to suddenly pull her and kiss her!
Her lips were filled with his cold and aggressive breath, overwhelming her senses.
Her brain was foggy, struggling to push him away.
"You're crazy! You hate me, so why kiss me? Or is this another way to humiliate me?"
Her voice was loud, venting her frustration.
Giorgio said coldly, "So you do have feelings, know pain? The photo in the news is recent, right?"
He was certain.
Anna realized he was talking about the 'bathtub kiss photo.'
He saw it. That's why he kissed her.
Men are so possessive! Even if they hate you, they still care!
She snapped, "Yes, it was the night before I left. We took it at a couple-themed hotel to say goodbye. I liked it, enjoyed it, and it has nothing to do with you."
Giorgio's chest heaved with anger.
Even though she did something he didn't like, she didn't apologize or try to fix things. Instead, she got close to Giuseppe.
His punishment for her was too simple.
"Anna, you're really cheap."
He walked away, leaving Anna alone in the night wind.
Cheap? Yes, quite cheap.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen not to call the police when he bullied her four years ago, wouldn't have acted like nothing happened that night at Vista Heights, and wouldn't have felt jealous and hurt when he humiliated her.
Half an hour later, Anna and Lucia headed to the airport.
In the hotel room, Charlie was watching the surveillance footage, looking for a lost item, and saw Anna.
"Daddy, Auntie Anna is also in Corystania, staying at this hotel! On the same floor!" He was excited and about to run out.
"Stop, she's already gone."
"What?"
Charlie didn't believe it.
"How could Auntie Anna leave so quickly? She should know I'm in Corystania too. She wouldn't leave without seeing me."
How could she not?
She was eager to call Giuseppe, couldn't wait to go back, wouldn't miss him.
"Don't believe me? Go see for yourself. But Charlie, you should know, not everyone thinks of you like you think of them. Always stay rational," Giorgio said coldly, stepping into the bathroom.
Charlie didn't believe it, ran to room 886, and saw two waiters cleaning the room.
"Excuse me, where is the guest who stayed here?"
"They checked out, said they had a flight in over an hour."
Auntie Anna really left.
Charlie was disappointed, took out his phone, and called Anna.
"Auntie Anna, why didn't you come to see me when you came to Corystania? You don't love me anymore?"
He felt wronged and complained.
In the taxi, Anna's heart softened.
"No, Charlie, something happened, Auntie Anna had to go back. Auntie Anna misses you too. Be good, when you return home, Auntie Anna will spend time with you."
"Oh, I see."
Charlie's mood brightened. He knew Anna wouldn't forget him. But Daddy's tone made Anna sound heartless.
He got it!
Anna didn't apologize to Daddy when she came to Corystania and left in a hurry. Daddy was angry, so he said those things!
'What a typical Daddy, who alway said nothing.'
No, he had to find a way to ease their relationship!
After hanging up, Charlie's mind spun quickly.
Soon, he thought of something, smiled, and quickly ran downstairs, then took out his phone and called Giorgio.
"Daddy! Something's wrong! Come down to the garden and get me!"
