Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78

“Awesome!” Jared happily nodded.

“Jared, perhaps we should invite Mr. Nigel instead. What do you say?” Anastasia reckoned that Nigel was a better choice.

“Nigel just took over his company, so he won’t have time to attend the event.”

“Let me ask him and see what his plan is.” Nonetheless, Anastasia reckoned it was necessary for her to ask.

“No, Mommy! Fred just heard that Mr. Presgrave is my father, so if Mr. Nigel comes with me, our cover will be blown.” Jared disagreed.

After hearing her son’s explanation, Anastasia felt helpless while cursing Elliot deep down inside for telling the others that he was Jared’s father. Why would this fella falsely admit that he is my son’s dad?

Elliot smiled and said, “I’ll play my role as your father well.”

“I look forward to that.” Jared clapped his hands.

“Come on, I’ll treat you to a fancy meal.” Elliot then opened the car door and was about to put the boy inside his car when Anastasia came over and grabbed her son.

“We’re good, President Presgrave. I’m preparing dinner tonight.”

Upon returning to his mother’s embrace, Jared looked up and gazed at Elliot. “Mr. Presgrave, would you like to come to my house and try my Mommy’s cooking? She is a very good cook…” The child was about to show a thumbs-up, but he was blocked by his mother’s hand.

While covering Jared’s mouth with her hand, Anastasia looked at the man and replied, “My cooking sucks, so I don’t think I should count you in.”
