My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31 

Elliot closed his computer. Only Anastasia had the answers to those questions, whether she really was once someone’s shameless mistress who had destroyed the man’s family in the end.

“Keep investigating,” Elliot ordered in a low voice.

Rey voiced his affirmation and left, after which Elliot’s dark gaze fell on a corner. She even gave birth to the child, so what exactly was he expecting?

When Erica returned home, she ran back to her room where she dialed Hayley’s number, for she could only vent her anger to Hayley.

“You caused trouble at Anastasia’s company?” Hayley asked in shock.

“My dad bought her a house worth 8 million behind me and my mom’s back. Why wouldn’t I be pissed?”

“I can’t believe Anastasia could do that! Erica, you have to be careful. You mustn’t let her snatch all of your father’s property in the end,” Hayley reminded.

“Hmph! I’ll never let her off the hook and I won’t let her live in peace either,” Erica seethed. “Are you at home, Hayley? Let’s go out for drinks tonight!”

“Um… I’m not feeling too well these days, so I can’t drink for now,” Hayley declined. “You should get someone else to accompany you.”

Erica sensed that Hayley was being exceptionally secretive these days because they used to hang out rather often in the past.

Over in the luxurious villa, Hayley ended her call with Erica as her gaze darkened. Anastasia’s mother had saved Elliot, which meant that Anastasia could exploit that fact to request anything of him. She could even ask to marry him and it would most probably be done.

As for the reason why Anastasia hadn’t made this request yet, it had to be due to her personality. She was a stubborn person and definitely not one to lose her sense of self over riches. In short, she lived quite the sober life.

Hence, she wouldn’t marry someone just because she wanted to repay some kindness. She had said in high school that she hated the person who caused her mother’s death, so could it be that Anastasia still hated Elliot for that?
