Chapter 198
“My stomach hurts… Do you have anything to eat at home?” Elliot raised his head and asked. After
drinking so much alcohol tonight, his stomach, which has always sustained itself on high grade whole
foods, naturally could not take it.
“Wait here. I’ll cook some noodles for you.” With that, Anastasia then went to the kitchen.
Sitting on the sofa, he smiled warmly as he watched the person in the kitchen busying herself.
No matter what she said, she still cared about him. It was just that she did not want to admit it.
After ten minutes, Anastasia came out holding a bowl of noodles, of which the noodles were of low
sodium. Normally, she would cook this for her son, but she now used it all to feed the man.
Walking over, Elliot ate it without hesitation. Looking at the man under the light, it was even more evident
that Jared’s face resembled his.
Wait! What nonsense am I thinking about? They just have similar looking features, that’s all.
While Elliot was eating the noodles, Anastasia went to clean up her room. Suddenly, her heart skipped a
beat upon discovering that it was already 9 PM. Goodness! I haven’t even picked up my son yet!
“Elliot, you’ll have to leave after eating. I need to go pick Jared up,” urged Anastasia.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I can let Rey go pick him up. It’s not safe for you, going out alone late at night,” Elliot immediately
replied.
“Isn’t Rey’s father hospitalized?”
Upon realizing that fact, Elliot paused for a few seconds before stating, “I’ll let my bodyguard pick him
up.”
Just then, Anastasia’s phone rang. Nigel’s calling me? Picking it up, she said, “Hello, Nigel. I’ll come pick
Jared up now.”
“There’s no need for that. The little rascal has already fallen asleep here. Just let him stay over at my
place.” On the other end of the line, Nigel laughed, obviously happy
to have the boy accompany him.
“What? Jared’s already asleep? I’d hate to burden you, though.”
“It’s nothing. Just let me try to be his father and sleep with him for one night!” Truth was, this was exactly
what Nigel wanted.
It was after a long while until Anastasia finally agreed. “A-Alright then. I’ll let Jared sleepover just for
tonight. I’ll pick him up first thing tomorrow morning.”
“Sure. Are you done with work? Are you outside or at home right now?”
“I’m at home.”
“Hey, Anastasia, I found out that Jared really looks like me, and his face resembles mine exactly when I
was young. Say, don’t you think this is some special fate between him and I?” Nigel started to hint at her
again.
While talking, Anastasia slowly made her way to the balcony. She laughed as she commented, “Jared
resembles you when you were a child? How is that possible, though?”
“He really does. If you don’t believe me, I can send my childhood pictures for you to see. The
resemblance is uncanny!” Nigel kept emphasizing.
“You don’t have to. I believe you. As long as you looked good as a child, that means that my son looks
handsome too!”
“Are you implying that I’m handsome too?”
“You always were handsome.”
“You like handsome guys, right? With me being so handsome, that means you like me too.” Nigel
laughed out happily on the other end of the line.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnastasia, who was teased to laughter by his joke, also laughed out loud.
Yet, at that moment, the man who was still eating the noodles at the table suddenly found the food to be
bland and tasteless after hearing their conversation.
Whenever this woman was with him, she would act like she was facing her mortal enemy, but when she
was doing anything else with another man, she would always put on a smile and talk in a sweet voice.
Do I really not deserve to see her smile?
Meanwhile, Anastasia did not want to chat anymore and told Nigel. “I’ll have to trouble you then, Nigel.
I’m going to take a bath now, so I’ll be hanging up first **
“Alright. Remember to think about me.”
“I will. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
“Alright! I’ll be looking forward to it.”
“Okay. Goodbye.” Anastasia then hung up after that and just enjoyed the cool breeze on the balcony
when suddenly, a cold husky voice came from behind her. “Someone had a grand old time with Nigel!”
Looking back at the man who suddenly appeared on the balcony, she raised her eyebrows. “Have you
finished your noodles?”
“I have.”
“Then you best be going! It’s getting quite late now. Oh—and I’m not going to pick Jared up tonight as
he’ll be sleeping over at Nigel’s.”
