Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 977

Harrison's expression was placid as he nodded to Logan by the door. Logan immediately made the call.

A moment later, however, he reported back. The restaurant prided itself on privacy and had no security cameras. Furthermore, no one else had been around to witness the fall. Besides Anastasia and Susan, no one knew what had really happened.

Anastasia smiled, unsurprised. She had known this would be the case even before Logan made the call.

Clearly, Susan had chosen the location with great care.

Harrison glanced at the young woman beside him.

Anastasia hugged his arm, smiling as she stood on her tiptoes to whisper in his ear, "Don't worry, Hubby."

Hearing her say that, Harrison knew she had it all figured out.

His Ana was usually a homebody. Besides her work at the Global Harmony Medical Institute, visiting the Austins, or dropping by his office, the only thing that could coax her out was an occasional shopping trip with Juliet. Marcus and Barnett had tried to get her to hang out several times, but she could never be bothered to say yes.

So why would Susan be granted such a rare privilege? Only if Anastasia had her own agenda.

So while Susan was gloating, thinking she had finally trapped Anastasia, the truth was likely that Anastasia had been in control of the situation from the very beginning.

Unhurried, Harrison helped Lady Lancaster to a chair and poured the old woman a glass of water.

"Susan, I'm only going to ask you this once," Anastasia said leisurely. "Are you absolutely sure it was me who pushed you?"

Seeing that Anastasia still hadn't shown a hint of panic, Susan felt a flicker of unease. But she quickly reassured herself. She had planned for every contingency; there was no way Anastasia could have any proof of her innocence.

This surprised everyone even more.

She'd lost her baby, and all she wanted was an apology?

The fact that she wasn't demanding anything more suggested she had no ulterior motives. Could it be this wasn't her scheme after all?

But Anastasia knew better.

She knew perfectly well that she hadn't pushed Susan. So for Susan to lose her baby and ask for nothing in return was the most suspicious part of all.

She said softly, "If I had done it, an apology would be in order. But Mrs. Young, you fell by yourself. What does that have to do with me? In fact, I should be the one accusing you of slander."
