Chapter 582

Disappointment caused Mayra's gaze to darken. Anderson's fingers curled, and he slowly clenched his fists as an odd look appeared on his face. When he met her eyes, an indescribable feeling filled his chest. It was uncomfortable and unlike anything he had felt before. Soon, he cast aside any feelings he shouldn't have. "You know about the Sawyer family, and Brandon's father has my relative. He's… very important to me." When Camilla went to Everton Corporation to ask for Mayra's custody, Anderson received news that one of his relatives was captured when he was transporting goods over the sea. Each member of the family was crucial to the Barlow family's business, and at the moment, they could only suppress news of this. However, the Sawyer family had always been at odds with the Barlow family. This time, Gregory's men were clearly targeting Anderson's relative on purpose. His relative was locked in a cell and would not be released unless Gregory said so. "Important?" Mayra thought, her eyes reddening. She slowly lowered her gaze and clenched her fists, feeling like she was being stabbed through the heart. The pain was suffocating. "You promised that you would never give me to someone else." It happened during her past life. She had been reborn again, so why was it happening again? "To you, I'm just a tool you can just pick up and use at any time, right? You were the one who called those people here, weren't you?" Her eyes reddened as she looked at him, her voice trembling. "Why aren't you talking? Am I right?" Anderson wanted to reach out and wipe her tears away, but she backed away from his touch again. "I'm doing this for your own good, Mayra. With the Sawyer family on your side, you'll have more power." "I told you not to treat me like I'm a child. I know everything. You're just using me!" Suppressing her emotions, she tried her best to stay composed. She could turn a blind eye to being ignored for half a year and being insulted by Sonia. Yet Anderson kept disappointing her time and time again, and at this moment, she finally gave up on him. "I'm only asking that you stay with the Sawyer family for a few days. It won't take long. I'll bring you home soon," he said.
