Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425 Malicious Plots

Elliot didn’t know what to do with her. Just then, Anastasia hugged his neck and planted a kiss on his thin lips. “All peachy? I’ll go eat now.”

With that, she smoothed her clothes and went out.

Behind her, the man still looked majestic despite sitting on the carpet, and there was a hint of mischief on his handsome face.

In another tea room at the end of the corridor, even though Hayley enjoyed the treatment as a guest and had a table full of food laid out before her, she was suffering inside.

Her existence here was like a joke. The servants looked like they respected her on the outside, but she knew that they were laughing at her behind her back!

She hated Elliot for treating her like that, but she hated Anastasia even more; Anastasia must have whispered horrible things about her in Elliot’s ears, turning her into a vicious woman.

Hayley took a deep breath, the hatred apparent in her eyes as a sneer crept onto her lips. She got up and walked out of the room, but a servant immediately reached out and stopped her. “Miss Seymour, Young Master Elliot insists that you have your meal here.”

“Can’t I go to the bathroom?” Hayley glared coldly at her, then strode toward a certain place. When she was here last time, she had the opportunity to tour the Presgrave Residence.

She remembered faintly that Harriet’s medicine was kept in a specialized room on the first floor. She thought that since the Presgrave Residence housed such a large family, they probably wouldn’t install CCTVs inside their house. This would make her operation much easier.

Just as expected, she didn’t spot any CCTVs around her. When she passed by the garden, she heard laughter coming from the main hall. It filled her heart with envy, for Anastasia was probably there as well.

Hayley noticed that the servant was following her. Annoyance flashed across the depths of her eyes as she instantly walked further into the garden. The servant called after her, “Miss Seymour, please don’t run around. That’s not where the bathroom is.”

Soon, Hayley managed to throw off the servant and emerged from another corridor. Now, all the servants were gathered at the main hall to serve the guests, so the huge Presgrave Residence looked especially empty.

A vicious feeling rose up in Hayley’s heart. Even if Harriet had no ill intentions toward her, she still hated that old woman. She hated how Harriet favored Anastasia over her without helping her get together with Elliot.
