Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126

Anastasia forced herself to head downstairs. She found Harriet surrounded by a group of people. Harriet was dressed in a tight, elegant dress that made her appear especially young and classy. She looked really kind and friendly although she had a headful of gray hair. Before Anastasia approached her, Harriet had already pushed the crowd aside to go toward Anastasia. It was almost as if Anastasia was the VIP there. Everyone in the crowd tossed curious looks in Anastasia’s direction. Which rich family is this young lady from? Why is Old Madam Presgrave giving her such-a _ grand welcome? they wondered.

“Old Madam Presgrave,” Anastasia greeted with a smile.

“There you are, girl! You look so gorgeous tonight!” Harriet reached her hand out to hold Anastasia’s hand as she spoke to the crowd around her, “This is my god-granddaughter, Anastasia.” Once the crowd heard what Harriet said, the young girls gazed at Anastasia with looks of admiration. How did she get so lucky? Why did Old Madam Presgrave choose her as her god granddaughter?

At the same time, the owner of a pair of hatred and jealousy-filled eyes glared at Anastasia from outside the crowd-it was none other than Hayley, who watched as Harriet introduced Anastasia to all of the people around her. Old Madam Presgrave’s eyes are filled with love for Anastasia, but what about me?

Although Hayley was just a fake product, she had genuinely begun to perceive herself as the Anastasia from five years ago. That explained why she thought she was being treated unfairly.

“Hey! Where’s Elliot? Why don’t I see him?” Harriet suddenly realized that her eldest grandson wasn’t around. Anastasia’s heart skipped a beat as she thought, The finger marks on Elliot’s face are really obvious; I don’t think he should show up here. Fortunately for Anastasia, Harriet only told others to look for him without asking for him to be there.

“Come here, Anastasia. Let’s sit down and have a chat.” Harriet held Anastasia’s hand and led her to the couch. Right then, Hayley purposely showed up beside them while calling out for Harriet. “Old Madam Presgrave!”

Harriet turned around in surprise. The moment she saw that it was Hayley, a natural smile appeared on her face. “You’re here too, Hayley.” Hayley immediately wrapped her hands around Harriet’s arm. “You don’t mind that I’m here, right, Old Madam Presgrave? Elliot told me that he missed out on my invitation. I wouldn’t have known about this whole thing if Daniel hadn’t told

me!”
