Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182 

“Will you say the same if it’s my cousin who pursued you?” Nigel pouted and asked. feeling a little depressed.

Something flashed across Anastasia’s eyes at that question. Elliot was never an obedient gentleman like Nigel. Instead, he had a strong and overbearing character, somewhat like a bandit’s. He would ignore her rejection and warnings.

Upon seeing her reaction, Nigel couldn’t help feeling jealous. It seems like she gives Elliot special treatment.

In the end, she didn’t answer his question and she muttered, “After lunch, I have to return to the office for a meeting. You should go about your renovation.”

In the evening, Anastasia went to pick up her son before a certain someone did so. Otherwise, the child would be taken away by him yet again.

This time, she successfully picked Jared up. She even brought him to the mall and had a stroll near her office. She also bought some dumplings home to cook. However, when she was buying them, the little boy kept asking her to buy more. “Mommy, that’s not enough. I want more.”

“It’s enough. In fact, it’s more than enough for the two of us,” she helplessly replied.

“No, it’s not enough.” He used a small ladle and continued filling the frozen dumplings into the bag.

In the end, Anastasia brought a large bag of frozen dumplings home. As they were unable to finish them, she had to keep them in the fridge.

After they reached home and while Anastasia was at the balcony, the boy took her phone. Finding Elliot’s number, he sent the man a message. ‘Mr. Presgrave, come over to have some dumplings!” All that was done quickly and easily.

‘Sure! I’m on my way, Elliot replied.

The boy put down the phone happily. As expected, Mr. Presgrave will come.

When Anastasia saw that it was getting late, she went to cook the dumplings.

“Mommy, you have to cook all the dumplings!” the little boy reminded her

“It’s too much. It’s a waste if we can’t finish them.”

“I can finish them. I want to eat 50 dumplings!” he announced loudly.

“You can’t fill 50 of them in your little tummy!” She chuckled as she said that.

“I can!” He put on a straight face as he commented, “Mommy, just cook them.”

“Alright. I’ll cook two plates first, and I’ll make some more if it’s not enough, okay?” she conceded with a smile.
