My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 219

Chapter 219 Keep Me Company

Elliot’s heart tightened when he heard Hayley’s words. So, she really was kicked out of her house, huh? Is that why she was abroad for five years.

But he believed the reason Anastasia conceived Jared was that the child’s adorableness could heal her pain. Jared was like a cure for Anastasia, liberating her from that horrific experience. This little one, on the other hand, needed love and care, and it would be his duty from now on.

Just then, the dishes were served. Hayley was looking forward to dinner when she made the orders, but now she felt as though she was chewing wax. Who’d have thought Elliot invited her to dinner only to learn about Anastasia’s past? At the end of the day, all he had in mind was Anastasia.

“Elliot, Anastasia’s a sweet girl. If it weren’t for that encounter, she would be living a happy life.” Hayley continued to put on her saint façade in front of Elliot.

Elliot, however, was still deep in his thoughts. After hearing Hayley’s words, he nodded in agreement, for the rest of Anastasia’s life had everything to do with him now. He would give her the happily ever after she deserved.

Then, Hayley thought of something, and she shyly asked, “Say, Elliot, has Anastasia ever asked you about us?”

However, Elliot’s gaze at her was clear and collected. “Hayley, what happened between us was a mistake. I’ve hurt you unconsciously that night, and I’ll make it up to you in my own way.”

“I don’t blame you, Elliot. Really. Maybe I’ve suffered for five years, but after knowing you, those sufferings became sweet experiences.” Hayley tried her best to confess her love for him.

Too bad Elliot didn’t feel the same for her. “It’s best that you don’t dwell on that night. It’ll do nothing but harm to you, after all.”

“No, I’m happy as long as it’s you.” Hayley shook her head like a rattle. She was beyond willing to experience such happiness again. “Elliot, I… Anytime you want, I’m willing to—”

Just then, Elliot’s phone rang, and she looked exasperatedly at the caller ID, only to find it was Anastasia.

Immediately, a fire raged beneath her eyes. Oh, how she wanted to kill this b*tch! She swore Anastasia had deliberately called to meddle at this time.

On the other hand, Elliot hurriedly grabbed his phone and stood up. “Let me take this call.”
