Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 950

Seeing his hesitation, Anastasia knew he was tempted. She made the decision for him on the spot. "Alright, I'm going downstairs now. Pack whatever you need to bring. You'll leave with me. You don't want to stay here with those two, do you?"

With that, she went downstairs.

Downstairs, Susan and Crystal were huddled together, talking. Crystal had a resentful look on her face, but she immediately fell silent when she saw Anastasia coming down.

From their reaction, Anastasia knew they had most likely been talking about her.

She couldn't be bothered with them, but as she looked at Crystal, a flash of insight struck her—

She remembered!

She remembered why the limping man at the resort looked so familiar!

Crystal looked just like him! No, not just Crystal—Lennon, too!

Suddenly, the man's identity was obvious.

She stared at Crystal for two seconds, then a slow smile spread across her face.

Her smile was making Crystal's skin crawl when Anastasia said, "Ms. Lancaster, after living under someone else's roof for so many years, don't you miss your real father? Have you no desire to reunite with him?"

At these words, Susan's heart skipped a beat, and Crystal's face paled. Both of them felt a sense of dread.

"What are you talking about? My dad's name is Ryan!" Crystal said, trying to sound tough. "Even if I'm not his biological daughter, he's willing to acknowledge me. It doesn't matter if you don't like it!"

Susan's eyes reddened as she put on a wronged expression. "Ms. Sterling, I know you look down on us, but we've already left the Lancaster family. What more do you want? Are you trying to take away the last person we have to rely on?"

She hadn't paid much attention to Carter before, but now she understood. To win Ryan back, or rather, to hold on to him as her lifeline, Carter was her most important bargaining chip!

But Carter completely ignored her. After giving his answer, he walked out with Anastasia.

Susan watched them go, frustrated and angry.

"Mom! Forget about Carter for a second—" Crystal suddenly pulled her aside, looking around cautiously before whispering, "That man... have you dealt with him yet? What did Anastasia mean by that? Does she know something?"

Susan was pulled back to her senses, feeling a new wave of unease.

She tried to soothe her daughter. "Don't worry about it. I'll handle it. Anastasia probably doesn't know anything. She was likely just talking. Don't take it to heart."

"Not take it to heart? How can I not!" Crystal hissed in frustration. "Our situation is bad enough as it is! If people find out I have a murderer for a father who's just gotten out of prison, how can I ever show my face in public again?!"
