Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 713

After Anastasia finished the bowl of porridge, Elliot came in to accompany her. Not long later, she fell asleep under his consolation, and Sophia entered again to cover her with a blanket and stay by her side.

“Are you her new assistant?” Elliot didn’t recognize Sophia. After all, there were too many people at the wedding.

Sophia hurriedly got up and replied, “Yes, President Presgrave, my name is Sophia Goodwin.”

“In that case, please take care of my wife and don’t let anyone disturb her,” Elliot instructed.

“Yes, sir,” Sophia answered softly.

After Elliot left, Sophia patiently stayed by Anastasia’s side while she slept. Meanwhile, her phone that had been put on silent mode rang, but she didn’t notice that the contact name was Arthur’s. Soon after, it rang again. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen missed calls were displayed on the screen.

Sophia looked at Anastasia’s haggard expression, feeling pained at the sight. Just then, a few nurses started talking at the door. She hurriedly got up and went out, whispering to them, “Mrs. Presgrave is resting. Please keep your voice down.”

The nurses immediately jolted in surprise and hurriedly shut their mouths and left.

In Arthur’s villa, an irritable figure was walking back and forth in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. What was this? The bird that he set free had flown away from him? Why couldn’t he contact Sophia? What was she trying to do? Did she think that he had set her free after what he said last time?

Unwilling to give up, he picked up his phone and continued to make another call, but he still received no answer.

“Sh*t!” He instantly burst into fury and grabbed the car keys from the table, planning to head out.

However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Martha walking over while chatting with a maid. He hurriedly concealed his irritation and stepped forward with a smile. “Grandma.”

“You’re going out?”

“No, I’m heading downstairs to get a cup of coffee,” Arthur replied as he helped her down the stairs.
