My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 1948

Chapter 1948

Jared couldn’t help but look at her a few times. with concern, fearing that she would really sink into depression out of anger. “Wanna grab something to eat?” he asked. “No.”

“Then what are your plans after this?” Ellen replied, “I’d like to buy a small house and settle down in a small home.” Her plans for the future were simple.

If she managed to get the 7.5 million from Connor, she would be able to stay unemployed for a long time, during which time she could do whatever she liked.

“Which area do you prefer to buy a house in? I can go house-looking with you,” Jared immediately replied. Of course, he would buy the house for her, too. No matter where the house was located and how expensive it was, he would buy it for her as long as she liked it.

Ellen replied, “It’s not necessary. I can go house- looking myself.” She knew the man’s intentions. Although Connor and his family had kept the obvious gains for themselves, she wouldn’t ask the Presgraves to show her their gratitude.. After all, the Presgraves had shown them enough gratitude.

“Ellen, I want to return your kindness. Just tell me if you want anything. I’ll satisfy you,” Jared replied frankly. Even if she didn’t bring this up, he would return her kindness from now on in every way possible.

“I don’t want anything.” Ellen shook her head while regretting what she had said to the man yesterday. She apologized, ‘I was too impulsive yesterday. I lost my mind after Selena suddenly said those things to me. Don’t take it to heart.”

“Why would I blame you for that? I’m the one who should apologize. I actually didn’t find out the donor’s identity for such a long time. Had I learned sooner that it was your brother, I would’ve shown you my gratitude already instead of tarrying until now. It was my fault for being stupid, Jared replied remorsefully. This whole thing was my fault. I was too slow.

Ellen pursed her lips for a moment. Then, she shook her head, saying, “I wouldn’t blame your for that. Besides, I’m proud of my brother for saving your life.”

Jared thus took Ellen to his home. Even the scenery around them seemed to become wonderful along the way, and she relaxed a bit as a result.

That afternoon, Connor called a real estate agent to put his family’s house up for sale. The real estate agent told him that the houses in his neighborhood were in high demand and sold very well on the real estate market, so the house was valued at a little over 8.5 million, which was already the highest selling price.

Connor did some calculations. If the house could really be sold at 8.5 million, he would have to give Ellen 7.5 million and pay the mortgage’s outstanding balance with the remaining one million.

However, the outstanding balance was about 1.7 million, which meant he would have to fork out another 700,000. Because of that, he decided to sell his car, too. This time, he was really going to sell everything they had. He didn’t even know where to get money for his family’s living expenses in the future.

Olivia shut herself in the room while crying her heart out. Now that she looked at this house, she was really reluctant to part with it. Still, however reluctant she was, she had to take the consequences into consideration. Ellen would bring a suit against them, and perhaps she and Connor would have to go to jail.
