Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 842

Mr. and Mrs. Hill both tensed up. “Who are you?”

“I am an enemy of Steven’s,” Anastasia said bluntly. “I’d like to discuss a collaboration with you.”

Mr. and Mrs. Hill’s expressions changed simultaneously. After a moment, Mr. Hill stepped aside. “Please, come in.”

The apartment was small. Even though its owners clearly tried to keep it clean, the lack of space and abundance of belongings made it look cluttered.

According to the files Anastasia had read, Mr. and Mrs. Hill, while not from exceptionally privileged backgrounds, were urban professionals who had lived a comfortable, middle-class life. They should not have been living in a place like this, in such a destitute state.

It was obvious that their fight to get justice for their son had led them to this.

Casting her gaze aside as if she hadn’t noticed, Anastasia got straight to the point. “I know that for the past few years, you’ve never given up on exposing Steven, but you haven’t succeeded. This time, I’m not asking you to do anything different. I just need you to step forward and reveal his crimes. I can guarantee that this time, you will not fail.”

Mr. and Mrs. Hill exchanged a look, their eyes cautious as they studied her. “May we ask what kind of grudge you have against Steven?”

Anastasia understood their wariness. She knew they had been deceived before; Steven had arranged for someone to pretend to help them, only to trick them out of nearly everything they owned.

Without saying much, Anastasia had her bodyguard hand them one of Harrison's business cards.

They were both stunned to see it.

Mr. Harrison Lancaster…?!

“I heard Queena recommended him,” the person gossiping with her whispered.

To become a professor at the Institute, aside from the necessary qualifications, one needed joint recommendations from high-level members within the Institute.

Anastasia recalled reading that an applicant needed at least five joint recommendations from the Institute's leadership to even be considered.

This step seemed simple but was actually the most difficult. It wasn't something connections alone could solve, as the Institute was notoriously cautious with its recommendations and would not vouch for anyone unless they had universally recognized expertise.

What she hadn't expected was that Queena also had the authority to make a recommendation.

“I always thought Queena was just a student at the Institute. I had no idea she was practically a junior member of the leadership. Apparently, being named an outstanding student for three years in a row comes with that privilege…”
