Chapter 220 She Hates Him Because She Hates Hayley
Daniel came up in two shakes, and when he saw Hayley chugging liquor, he snatched the glass from her. “Don’t drink like this, Miss Seymour. You’ll get sick.”
“Daniel.” Hayley got up and hugged him. She seriously needed a man and she didn’t want to give herself a hard time, even if she couldn’t have Elliot to herself.
His body stiffened at her contact. He tried to push her away, but she had a tight grip around his neck. “Don’t leave me too, Daniel. Hug me.”
Daniel obliged half-heartedly. Though Hayley knew she was leaning against Daniel, she couldn’t stop thinking about Elliot. With that, she closed her eyes and consoled herself by thinking she was hugging Elliot.
Meanwhile, at Anastasia’s home. Jared waited in his room for Elliot to arrive after making a sneaky call to him. Meanwhile, Anastasia was busy with house chores and it was already around 8.00PM by the time she was done with their laundry.
Just as she was about to return to her room to continue working, the doorbell rang.
Hmm? Who could it be at this hour?
With that, she walked to the door and found Elliot standing outside through the peephole.
She was surprised he would still come. Isn’t he supposed to be on a date with Hayley? What the hell is he doing here?!
The doorbell rang again, and she knew he wasn’t going to leave anytime soon. Hence, she opened the door with frustration and pulled a grim face. “It’s already late at night. What are you doing here?”
“I’m here to play with Jared.”
“Thanks, but no thanks. I’ll play with my son. Please leave,” Anastasia said indifferently.
However, the little one ran out from behind her at that moment. “You’re here, Mr. Presgrave. Let’s play downstairs.”
Anastasia stared at her son as she watched him dashing out the door to hold Elliot’s hand and say, “I didn’t expect you to come so soon, Mr. Presgrave!”
