Chapter 40
On the way, Nigel received a call from his grandmother. However, since he had already agreed to accompany Anastasia and her son for lunch, he decided to only return to Presgrave Residence for dinner at night.
In the restaurant, Nigel talked about his plans to return to the country. He had returned to inherit the family business this time.
“What exactly does your family do? Can you tell me specifically?” an inquisitive Anastasia asked.
Nigel gave a mysterious smile; he had deliberately concealed his family background abroad and she had only known him as an ordinary hotel manager.
At this moment, he didn’t want to hide the truth anymore, so he pointed to the most luxurious hotel outside the window and said, “That belongs to my family.”
Anastasia turned to look out the window. It was a 7-star luxury hotel, yet it turned out to be owned by his family?
“My family has businesses in 36 countries around the world. The hotel that I interned at abroad is also owned by my family. Anastasia, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hide it from you,” he apologized.
She smiled. “It’s okay. I didn’t expect you to be the young master of a wealthy family.”
“Don’t say that. To you, I’m still me; nothing has changed,” he hurriedly explained.
Anastasia shrugged and explained, “I’m also lucky to be able to be friends with you! I can proudly say to the outside world that I am friends with you!”
Nigel looked at her with a wry smile. Why did she just want to be his friend? He wanted to have a more intimate relationship with her. However, he was not in a hurry and could wait for her.
In the afternoon, he accompanied Jared to go shopping for clothes and toys. If Anastasia hadn’t stopped him, he would probably have moved the entire Lego store home for Jared. She knew that he was wealthy, but he couldn’t spoil her son so much because she was afraid that Jared would become a spoiled brat. The little boy was elated today because he had received many gifts, all of which were his favorites.
The little boy went to the room to unpack the gifts in Anastasia’s apartment. Then,
she poured a glass of water for Nigel and asked curiously, “Nigel, do you know Elliot?”
