My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 1843

Chapter 1843

I knew it! She planned it from the start! She acted pitifully in front of him to make him empathize with her. And here I am, thinking that he had fallen for her. Selena was scornful.

Seeing how she believed in her words, Ellen began to let her storytelling shine through. “President Presgrave is an empathetic man. Back then, Uncle Garrett and the others were trying to rip me off when the demolition was confirmed. I accidentally spilled the beans, and the rest is what you witnessed in the lobby. He knew I was getting bullied, so he helped me out.”

Selena finally grasped the situation. No wonder President Presgrave is so protective of her. He knew of her situation.

Ellen exclaimed, “He’s been helping me so much, but I don’t know how to repay his kindness. That’s why I treated him to a meal. You were there too.”

It pricked Selena’s guilty conscience to recall that day. She coughed wryly. “I was just hanging out with my friends. It was a coincidence.”

“I know. So, Selena, please do not misunderstand things between me and President Presgrave. He did all that out of pity.”

Selena seemed to be in a good mood. At least, things were not as she thought. She initially assumed that Ellen was going to be Jared’s girlfriend and would look down upon them the day she became a rich man’s wife. Now, it seemed like it was a mere act out of pity and empathy, it was nothing remotely close to affection.

“I bet you have his private contact number. Can you give it to me? Selena suddenly thought of getting in touch with Jared virtually. If I have his number, I can flirt with him at times. What if I succeed?

Ellen shook her head immediately. “That’s a big no-no. President Presgrave personally highlighted that his contact number is solely for business. He will get angry if we bother him with personal matters. Besides, he already has a girlfriend. What if she gets jealous? That will put us in trouble.”

“I just wanna save his number. I won’t bother him.” Selena pouted.

“Still, what if you ticked off his nerves? He’ll lash out at me for sure. I can’t do this, Selena.”
