My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 2518

It was clear that Tony was afraid of Zacharias. Zacharias’ mood was far from pleasant, and he cast a stern look at Tony. “Go back!”

“I won’t. I’ve brought all my luggage here, and I plan to stay for a few days to take care of you, just as per my grandpa’s instructions.”

In other words, it was Josef’s instruction. Zacharias reluctantly nodded. “You can stay for three days.”

“Yay!” Tony celebrated with a triumphant fist pump. Then, he shifted his gaze to Shirley, thrilled at the prospect of finally being able to spend time with his beloved goddess.

Zacharias glanced at her, who lowered her gaze, avoiding his eyes. His mood worsened, and he ascended the stairs.

Tony sensed his uncle’s mood, and as soon as Zacharias left, he approached her and inquired, “Goddess, who upset him?”

Shirley didn’t answer and merely shook her head.

“It can’t be a woman, can it?” Tony speculated. “If Uncle Zacharias were upset about work, someone would have borne the brunt already. He wouldn’t just bottle it up. It must be a woman who has hurt his heart.”

While he was muttering, she had already moved to stand by the door. He noticed her departure and followed her. “Goddess, you’re his bodyguard. So, you must know who he’s been in contact with. Please tell me!”

Shirley replied calmly, “Mr. Tony, please don’t disturb me while I’m working.”

Tony pulled a chair over, sat in front of her, and held a cup of tea while thoroughly enjoying the view. “Goddess, just looking at you is a spiritual delight. I’ve decided to sit here and watch you work.”

She was speechless but chose not to respond. She kept her gaze on the man, who couldn’t withstand her sharp stare for long.

His work had been affected today because he couldn’t stop thinking about what he had witnessed in the morning. He had seen Shirley holding hands with Zacharias as they walked out of the hospital lobby. While she had quickly let go of Zacharias’ hand upon seeing him, he couldn’t help but notice the look in Zacharias’ eyes, which were filled with affection as Zacharias looked at her.

Cole was painfully aware that he couldn’t escape the harsh reality between him and Shirley. She deserved someone who could offer her a better life and future, something he couldn’t provide. Zacharias, on the other hand, could give her a happy and stable future.

With a sigh, Cole realized that she was wonderful, but he didn’t deserve her.

‘Shirley, I’ve decided to apply for a transfer from this position. I’m going back to the base to undertake other missions,’ Cole replied. He had just submitted the request to his superiors.
