“Mmhmm!” Anastasia sighed and said, “Those years I spent overseas were the hardest period of my life, so anyone who walked with me through those years and cared for me, will always be someone that Jared and I owe a lot to
“I’m sorry, It’s my fault. I should’ve found you five years ago. Elliot blamed himself for everything. Five years ago, he did go back to try and find the woman, but the employees at the Abyss Club were a mess. and he did not try very hard either. He ended up getting tied up with the company’s affairs and had to run around the globe for over a year before finally coming back.
It was in that year that he realized he could not forget the woman from that night, so he decided to search for her once more. He decided to use the watch to find her. As long as a woman showed up with that watch in hand, he would know that it was her.
However, he never would have expected that Anastasia would have thrown the watch away that night, and it would end up in another woman’s hands.
“Forget it. Let’s not talk about the past anymore. We should look toward the future,” Anastasia consoled him before resting her head against his shoulder. “The three of us have reunited now, and we won’t be apart ever again.”
Elliot clasped her hand tightly and promised, “We’ll always be together, forever.”
He took her out to lunch, and in the afternoon, he accompanied her to a nearby shopping mall to take their mind off things.

“What?! Anastasia’s future husband is the president of Presgrave Group, Elliot Presgrave? You must be kidding!” Katrina exclaimed in disbelief.
“Why would I kid about something like this? I even met him just now.”
“So what you’re saying is, the child Anastasia gave birth to back then is his as
well?”
“Yes, he’s the father.”
“Wow, Mason, you’ve hit the jackpot then! If it hadn’t been for you, the Presgrave Group’s little heir would have drowned with his mother. He wouldn’t have been born at all! Did Elliot Presgrave offer to give you a raise?”
“Don’t talk like that, Kat!”
