Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223 She Has Now Become Anastasia’s Boss

Anastasia didn’t like answering such questions deep down, but she still had to out of politeness. “Yeah, he’s busy.”

“During the family sports day, your husband said he’s working in finance. Most people in this line of work are, like, super busy but super rich. What’s your job, Miss Tillman?” Clearly, she was idle chatting.

“I’m a stay-at-home mom.” Anastasia made up an answer, for she wasn’t a fan of background-check kind of questions.

“Where do you guys stay, then?”

“The block over there.” Anastasia pointed randomly.

“Your husband’s car costs a lot, doesn’t it?”

“His company loaned it to him.”

The more this woman asked, the more she believed Anastasia wasn’t well off since Anastasia enrolled her son in this kindergarten. Hence, she felt a little better, but when she sized Anastasia’s body and features up, she felt absolutely envious and jealous, for she weighed about a hundred and thirty pounds.

Details of Anastasia’s skin could be visibly seen under the afternoon sun. Barely any pores were visible, and her skin was crystal clear and fair—a typical beauty. She had long, silky, smooth hair, and her light gold blouse and black pencil skirt accentuated her shapely figure. There was not a single flaw this woman could find in Anastasia, and she couldn’t help bemoaning how unfair the heavens could be.

Just then, the gates opened, and Anastasia dashed to pick up Jared.

One more question from that lady, and I’d… Ugh!

After picking Jared up, the mother and son duo got into a cab and headed to the mall near home for dinner.

It was around seven-thirty by the time they came out, and the sky had already gone dark. With that, Anastasia hailed a cab home.

Many people were coming back from work when they arrived at the entrance of their community, and so Anastasia decided they should get out of the cab and walk home. Just then, a guy exclaimed behind them. “Miss Tillman?”

She looked back while holding Jared’s hand to find Oliver approaching them with a laptop bag on his back.

“Oliver?” Anastasia was just as surprised to find him here.
