My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 719

Chapter 719

All of a sudden. Arthur had the urge to seize the moment to do what he wanted and chase after the person he liked. If not, he was afraid that he would run out of time to get her in his hands. He turned his gaze toward Presgrave Corporation again as he fell into deep thought. 

Three days later, the news of Harriet‘s death was published in the papers, causing an uproar in the upper society. At the same time, the media turned their attention to the newly appointed Mrs. Presgrave, Anastasia, who would soon become the most powerful woman in the Presgrave Family. 

Harriet‘s funeral was also under preparation. Elliot handled everything and hardly slept, while Anastasia did not go to the company and prepared for the funeral with him. Harriet had instructed during her lifetime not to make her funeral a big deal. She just hoped that on the day she was buried in the ground, the members of the Presgrave Family and several of her friends would come to see her off. 

That day, Jared finally came back from Nigel‘s house. The moment he arrived home, he instantly asked Anastasia, “Mommy, Uncle Nigel said Great–Grandma went somewhere very far away, and that I can‘t see her anymore.” 

Anastasia pulled him into her arms and said gently, “Then, you have to miss her, all right?” 

“I will. What about phone calls? Can I call her?” 

Anastasia‘s eyes suddenly turned red, and she couldn‘t stop her tears from falling. She hugged her son and said, “Jared, Great–Grandma has left us. Let‘s keep her in our hearts, and in a few days, we‘ll go and visit her together, all right?” 

Jared wiped the tears from his mother‘s eyes sensibly, as if he understood where Harriet had gone. He consoled, “Mommy, did Great–Grandma pass away? You don‘t have to hide it from me. I‘m not scared.” 

As Anastasia looked at her son‘s resolute gaze, she hugged him in relief and nodded softly. “Yes, your great–grandma has gone to heaven. You can miss her.” 

“I‘ll miss her.” 

Just then, a figure appeared at the doorway as Elliot walked inside. He had heard everything, and he wanted his son to know about Harriet‘s death as well. 

“Daddy.” The young boy jumped into his father‘s arms, his large eyes turning red as if he understood what it meant to lose a loved one. 

Elliot hugged him and gave him a kiss. “Good boy.” 

“That‘s right! President Goodwin, you‘re still so young. You should think of your wife and daughter‘s future!” 

“The company is doing well. We‘re just waiting for you to come back and lead us to more wealth and success!” 

Of course, Drake wanted to get his company back–it was his life‘s work, after all. He walked outside toward the yard, only to see Arthur standing next to the pond with a hand in his pocket, admiring the goldfish in it leisurely.
