Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 442

Chapter 442 Father and Son

“I see.” She nodded. “Then I’ll go on my own.”

Elliot had just turned his head to look at Jared, but upon hearing her words, he immediately turned and looked at her again. “You’re going?”

“Felicia said there will be some good performances. I’m interested.” At that point, Anastasia was already looking forward to seeing her favorite singer.

Elliot changed his mind and said in a deep tone, “Okay. I’ll ask Rey to allocate some of my time then.”

That startled Anastasia. “That’s not necessary. Your work is more important.”

“Work will never be more important than my girlfriend,” he replied casually. He initially refused to attend the annual celebration because the atelier was unimportant to him in the first place. That was just a jewelry brand he bought for fun.

In fact, Elliot acquired it to get closer to Anastasia.

His words gave her a warm feeling. Even the cold air surrounding her became warmer now. Pursing her lips, she smiled and said, “But I’m not planning to bring Jared along. Too many people will be there.”

“That’s great. If you don’t mind, I plan to send Jared to Grandma’s house. She had been nagging to see him.” Elliot looked at her, to which Anastasia nodded in agreement. “Send him there then!”

She did not mind it at all. She merely hoped that Jared would not be too mischievous and cause trouble for Harriet.

When they mentioned that to Jared, he happily agreed and asked, “Mommy, are you going on a date with Mr. Presgrave?”

‘No. We’re just attending a work event,” she explained.

However, Elliot did not go along with her. “You’re right, Jared. We are going on a date.”

“Enjoy your date then! I’ll be good.” Jared hoped that they could be together more than anyone else.

Seeing them both, Anastasia was rendered speechless.

Jared was still young, but he was preoccupied with adult issues.

There were still two days until Friday. The next morning, Anastasia received a call from Francis informing her that there would be a year-end inventory meeting in the afternoon and inviting her to attend.

Though it was still too early for her to take over Francis’ business, she was trying her best to become a qualified successor.
