“She has always been drawn to the spotlight, which is the total opposite of me. She used to be rather
childish and would have said a lot of hurtful things in the past. I hope you didn’t take it to heart.”
“Why would I?” Anastasia smiled. It was all in the past.
Katrina knew that Mason wanted to date her, so Katrina put a stop to it and even hurled insults at her
while she was pregnant. Even so, Mason ignored his sister’s protests and continued to take very good
care of her. She was all alone in a foreign country, and sometimes she had no other choice but to
accept his caring and thoughtful gestures to survive.
There was once when Jared had a high
fever, and it was Mason who accompanied her through it all. He carried Jared and ran down many
blocks of streets until they found a doctor who
could attend to Jared. Thankfully, Jared managed to pull through.
That was the most frightened and distraught that Anastasia had ever been, and it was him who ignored
his sister’s objections and did everything he could to help her.
Therefore, no matter how Katrina treated her, Anastasia would not take it to heart.
“Anastasia, where’s Jared? I haven’t seen him in so long!” Mason exclaimed.
“He’s in class right now. He’s already four! I’ll bring him to meet you some time.” Anastasia chuckled.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Sure! I’m sure he’s quite a looker now. He was so cute as a baby, so he’ll definitely grow up to become
a handsome man,” Mason praised.
Anastasia thought about Elliot. If Jared grew up to look like his father, he was going to be an incredibly
handsome man indeed!
“How did you end up working in Bourgeois?” Anastasia asked out of curiosity.
“I was headhunted and invited to take the position, and I have a lot of faith in Bourgeois’ future
development as a company, so I decided to come back to the country. I never thought our paths would
cross like this again, but I ended up seeing your name at the office.”
“That’s right, I used to work for Bourgeois.”
“Used to? Why did you resign?” Mason asked.
Anastasia’s eyes gleamed with happiness. Then, she finally remembered about the two invitation
cards, so she took them out and passed it over to Mason. “Here, I’ll be getting married soon, so I hope
you two will come and attend the ceremony.”
Mason stared at the invitation cards for a
very long time before taking them. There was a flash of dejection in his eyes. “You’re getting married,
huh?” He flipped the card open as he said that. Once he saw the name written inside, his eyes
flickered. “Elliot Presgrave? Your fiancé is Elliot Presgrave?”
Anastasia knew that he would be shocked. She nodded and said, “Yeah, my fiancé’s name is Elliot
Presgrave.”
“Bourgeois’ owner, the president of Presgrave Group, Elliot Presgrave?” Mason chuckled somewhat
bitterly as he bid goodbye to his fleeting moment of joy earlier.
Sometimes, even when one reunited with the person they longed for, one still did not get a second
chance, because someone even better-a man even more powerful than one-was now by that person’s
side.
“Yes, that’s him. He’s also Jared’s father.” Anastasia nodded and shared a secret. Instantly, Mason’s
eyes flashed. “What?! He’s Jared’s father? That b*stard?”
Anastasia nodded and pursed her lips. “Mason, you shouldn’t say that about him. It was all an accident
back then.”
“But… but what he did left you with so much pain, and so much despair… that you even tried…” Mason
did not dare continue.
Mason had saved Anastasia once. It was when she was five months pregnant. She had lost all hope
and attempted to take her life by jumping off a bridge. Mason was the one who jumped into the river
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand rescued her.
Therefore, in his eyes, the man who got
her pregnant was an irresponsible
bestard.
Anastasia sighed and urged him softly. “Mason, just leave the past in the past. I’m really happy right
now.”
Mason’s fists tightened. “Why do your
want to marry him? Is he trying to get
custody of Jared? Is that why you have to
marry him?”
Anastasia was taken aback but she shook her head. “No. A lot of things happened between us, and he
has expressed a lot of regret about the past. We’re truly in love.”
“Does he know the disaster he brought onto you? Does he know everything you suffered through five
years ago all alone in a foreign country?” Anastasia never mentioned the past to Elliot because she
considered it an ill fated low point in her life, but now that Mason showed up, those memories began to
resurface again.
