Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221 I’ll Go and Get It From You

With that, Anastasia stepped back inside the room and shut the front door, leaving Elliot outside on his own.

Jared, on the other hand, was brought to the couch and lectured. The little boy pouted and finally mumbled after a long while, “But I like Mr. Presgrave.”

“Well, don’t. And never call him without my permission ever again. He’s a big boss, and he’s super busy, understand, Jared?”

Anastasia knew only by telling Jared Elliot was swamped with work that he would eventually stop approaching Elliot.

Jared nodded, expressing that he got it. But deep down, he genuinely liked Elliot, for he saw a father in that man. Oh, how he wished his mother would marry Elliot so that he could be his father.

Anastasia felt bad for her little boy despite reprimanding him, as it was her fault, to begin with. She shouldn’t have let Jared grow attached to Elliot.

She decided that she would never make such mistakes ever again. It was time she and Elliot drew a line. They shouldn’t be in this ambiguous relationship any longer.

Anastasia mulled over many things when she lay in bed that night, mainly about Elliot. She wondered when this man filled every corner of her mind, so much so that she couldn’t even chase him away.

But even so, she couldn’t let this go on. If she really couldn’t chase him away, she’d find another man to replace him. It was just a man. No matter how desperate she got, she would never share a man with Hayley.

To Anastasia, Elliot’s entire body was long enveloped in Hayley’s stench. It was the repulsive kind that would suffocate her as soon as she got three feet close.

That night, Hayley played drunk and brought Daniel to her room. Under her seduction, they rolled around in bed despite Daniel’s feigned rejection. Yes, Hayley did the deed that night as she proclaimed, just that it wasn’t with Elliot. While Daniel was asleep, Hayley took a few sneaky pictures. She could use them to fool Anastasia into thinking Elliot was sleeping with her.

After a night’s deliberation, Anastasia woke up with an eased mind the following morning. She wouldn’t have to worry anymore after she cleared her mind and planned out her future.

She had no time to waste on such things. She had to work hard and earn money, for her son was her everything.
