Chapter 124
However, Nigel held a strong sense of determination in this matter-he wanted to marry Anastasia, and he wanted her as his wife. He wanted to care for her, and he wanted to surrender his whole life to her.
Nigel told Anastasia all about the guests he had met earlier-many of them were huge tycoons that he wouldn’t have had the chance to meet if it weren’t for the charity dinner. “But I got so bored,” Nigel muttered with a sigh. He smiled when he saw the bracelet on her hand. “Are you finally wearing what I gave you?”
She gazed at the bracelet. “Of course. I’m the one who designed this.” Nigel had purchased a bracelet from her, and he had gifted it to her on the day that he received it. Anastasia had been speechless-she didn’t want to take it but Nigel had insisted, so she had no choice but to accept his gift in the end.
Right then, Nigel’s phone rang. “Hello? Dad.”
“Hey, Nigel. Johnson and his family are here. Come over and help me out,” Nigel’s dad ordered.
“Can I stay with my friend for a while, Dad?” Nigel asked.
“You can go off with your friend later, Nigel. You have to show more respect to your seniors. Hurry over now.” His father’s voice sounded sterner this time.
“Dad, I…” Nigel was helpless. It seemed like his dad wasn’t about to let him go off so easily.
“Go on! We can meet anytime,” Anastasia urged with a smile on her face. “Okay. Wait for me here, and I’ll come back to you once I’m done,” Nigel replied. That was exactly what Anastasia wanted to do-she had no intention of leaving when she had just found such a luxurious room where she could rest in.
After Nigel left, Anastasia picked up a cup of fruit tea and sipped on it while she pulled her phone out to scroll through the news. It had only been two minutes before someone opened the door to the room. She looked up in surprise. Is Nigel back already? However, she froze when she looked up.
