Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Hunger

Anastasia clicked into the image which also had a video embedded below it. The man who was arrested was definitely Lawrence, the thug who used to be so arrogant. Now that he had been detained, she wouldn’t have to constantly be on edge about her and Francis’ safety anymore. Moreover, the nature of his crime for having 2 lives lost by his hands was so terrible that Lawrence probably wouldn’t be able to get out of prison in this lifetime.

Anastasia immediately called her father and told him the good news. Francis just so happened to have just seen it as well, and he cheered, “Yes! What goes around comes around.”

“Dad, if this is the case, I might go home and stay there for the next two days,” she informed Francis.

“Why don’t you stay at Young Master Elliot’s place for a while longer?”

“I am not thick-skinned enough to keep staying here, Dad. I will be bringing Jared home.” She had always been someone who didn’t like causing people trouble.

“Alright! Move back here with Jared, then. It will be more comfortable for you at home! I will come pay and visit little Jared these 2 days.”

“Okay!” she answered before hanging up.

I have to mention this to Elliot tonight.

It was Erica’s first time visiting Hayley’s villa. When she saw this luxury villa that stood alone, her eyes almost fell out in envy.

Like someone who had just seen the big city for the first time after living her whole life in a village, Erica started walking around the bungalow and into the cloakroom and master bedroom. “Hayley, you are so lucky!” she exclaimed. “The Presgraves have given you such a good life. You get to spend the rest of your life indulging in wealth and prosperity.”

“Let’s go! I have prepared 2 gifts for you. Erica, I want you to handle Anastasia with me from now on. I will share whatever good stuff I have with you,” Hayley declared as she tried to get on Erica’s good side.

Erica, in return, hummed agreeably. “Alright! I will definitely help you deal with Anastasia. She happens to be the person my mother and I hate the most.” Erica was more than eager to do it. With Hayley’s help, she would have a better chance to get her father’s property in the future.

Hayley then gave her 2 pieces of jewelry that she herself didn’t like very much, but Erica was overjoyed just to receive the gifts. The duo started chatting about last night as they enjoyed afternoon tea.
