Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 947

On the way back, their car suddenly broke down.

They had two cars of bodyguards with them, so they could have pushed on if necessary, but there was no need. Besides, a heavy downpour had started, making it unsafe to continue driving. Hearing there was a resort lodge nearby, Harrison made the call to stay there for the night.

Anastasia had no objections. She linked her arm through his, her steps light. "Is this lodge famous? I think I heard Marcus mention it, but I've never been. I wonder if it's any fun."

Harrison held the umbrella, tilting it towards her to shield her from the rain. He chuckled. "This place is known for its natural scenery. With this much rain, there probably won't be much for you to do. If you're interested, we can come back another time when the weather is better."

Anastasia's initial disappointment vanished at his last words, and she beamed. "Okay!"

As they were talking and walking inside, a figure suddenly stumbled towards them. A bodyguard reacted instantly, intercepting the person.

It was a man with a limp and a weathered face, dressed in the resort's work uniform and holding a broom. He looked like an employee here.

He had no umbrella, and his clothes were already soaked through. He seemed to be in a hurry, walking with his head down, which was why he had nearly bumped into Anastasia and Harrison.

Stopped by the bodyguard, he looked up and immediately bowed, flashing an apologetic, fawning smile. "Sorry, so sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going..."

Harrison glanced at him and waved his hand dismissively for the bodyguard to let him go.

The rain was heavy, and though the umbrella was large, the hem of Anastasia's dress was already getting wet. He didn't want to linger.

The bodyguard stepped aside, and the man immediately ran off with his broom into the rain.

As Anastasia walked up the steps, she couldn't help but look back.

Harrison asked, "What is it?"

"...Nothing."

It was just that the man seemed vaguely familiar.

Wasn't Susan supposed to be on bed rest at home? They said she was having a difficult pregnancy and was at risk of a miscarriage. What was she doing here?

Surprised, Anastasia stepped back, hiding herself from view as she watched.

Susan was arguing with someone, pushing and pulling at them. Her voice was hushed, and Anastasia couldn't hear what she was saying.

The person she was with was none other than the limping man who had almost run into them the previous evening!

The man gripped Susan's arm tightly, threatening her fiercely about something. Susan violently shook him off and, through clenched teeth, handed the man something. Anastasia was too far away to see clearly, but she caught a glimpse of what looked like a credit card.

Only then did the man seem satisfied. He quickly pocketed the item, said a few more words to Susan, then picked up his broom and left.

After the man was gone, Susan let out a sigh of relief. She glanced around cautiously, and seeing no one, she also scurried away.
