She couldn't just change her plans. Bruno and Aubrey were incredibly busy, and they had specifically cleared their schedules for this. She couldn't ask them to reschedule just so she could go on a date.
Seeing her look so dejected, Harrison chuckled, a mixture of amusement and helplessness in his eyes. He lifted her hand to his lips and kissed it gently. “It’s alright. If you have something to do, go ahead. I’ll spend Sunday with you instead.”
Anastasia’s head shot up, her eyes shining with joy. “Really?”
“Of course.”
She threw her arms around him. “You’re the best!”
With Harrison’s promise, Anastasia was in high spirits when she left the next day.
She called Bruno and Aubrey, then headed to the Clark family's home.
Marlon had been waiting for her since early morning. He came out to greet her personally, his eyes looking past her expectantly.
Anastasia smiled. “Mr. Austin and Mr. Brown aren’t with me. They’ll be arriving a little later.”
Marlon laughed sheepishly. “My apologies, I got ahead of myself. Please don’t mind me, Ms. Sterling.”
He then led her inside.
This time, Anastasia saw Mrs. Clark. She was a woman of elegant charm, though she looked frail as she reclined on the sofa. Seeing Anastasia enter, she offered a gentle smile. “Ms. Sterling, please excuse my poor hospitality. I’m too weak to stand and greet you…”
“Please, stay seated. There’s no need to get up.”
