Chapter 219 KeepCompany Elliot's heart tightened when he heard Hayley’s words. So, she really was kicked out of her house, huh? Is that why she was abroad for five years? But he believed the reason Anastasia conceived Jared was that the child’s adorableness could heal her pain. Jared was like a cure for Anastasia, liberating her from that horrific experience. This little one, on the other hand, needed love and care, and it would be his duty from now on.
Just then, the dishes were served. Hayley was looking forward to dinner when she made the orders, but now she felt as though she was chewing wax. Who'd have thought Elliot invited her to dinner only to learn about Anastasia’s past? At the end of the day, all he had in mind was Anastasia.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Elliot, Anastasia’s a sweet girl. If it weren't for that encounter, she would be living a happy life.” Hayley continued to put on her saint facade in front of Elliot.
Elliot, however, was still deep in his thoughts. After hearing Hayley’s words, he nodded in agreement, for the rest of Anastasia’s life had everything to do with him now. He would give her the happily ever after she deserved.
Then, Hayley thought of something, and she shyly asked, “Say, Elliot, has Anastasia ever asked you about us?” However, Elliot's gaze at her was clear and collected. “Hayley, what happened between us was a mistake. I've hurt you unconsciously that night, and I'll make it up to you in my own way.” “I don’t blyou, Elliot. Really. Maybe I've suffered for five years, but after knowing you, those sufferings becsweet experiences.” Hayley tried her best to confess her love for him.
Too bad Elliot didn’t feel the sfor her. “It's best that you don't dwell on that night. It'll do nothing but harm to you, after all.” “No, I'm happy as long as it's you.” Hayley shook her head like a rattle. She was beyond willing to experience such happiness again. “Elliot, I... Anytyou want, I'm willing to—" Just then, Elliot's phone rang, and she looked exasperatedly at the caller ID, only to find it was Anastasia.
Immediately, a fire raged beneath her eyes. Oh, how she wanted to kill this b*tch! She swore Anastasia had deliberately called to meddle at this time.
On the other hand, Elliot hurriedly grabbed his phone and stood up. “Lettake this call.” “Okay.” Hayley beamed, suppressing her raging fire.

“Can you wait for me, Jared? I'll go over once I'm done with dinner.” “Really? You'll still cover, Mr. Presgrave?” “I will. I never go back on my words,” Elliot promised. He adored the child immensely, even if they weren't related by blood.
“Okay. I'll be waiting for you!” “Alright, I'll get there soon,” Elliot promised again.
After hanging up, he checked the tand returned to the private room. When he saw that Hayley had barely eaten, he couldn't help asking, “Hayley, are you done eating?” “Are you leaving?” She couldn’t help panicking. Must he go as soon as Anastasia called? “Yeah, | still have something | have to get to first. I'll have Daniel send you home.” “But Elliot... I... | hope you can finish this dinner with me.” Hayley wished he could stay, but when he looked over with his suit jacket in his hand under the light, she lost all courage and bit her lip aggrievedly. “Y-You go ahead then! I'll be fine.” “I'm sorry, Hayley. I'll treat you to another meal,” Elliot apologized, standing on ceremony, before striding out.
Now that he was gone, Hayley could throw her facade away and bear her bitter, resentful face. Anastasia, of all people, it has to be Anastasia! That b*tch shrouded her like a nightmare she couldn't drive away no matter how.
With that, she picked up her phone and called Daniel. “Daniel, cup here and keepcompany.” MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
