Chapter 38
The little guy could only eat it on his own while Anastasia had also eaten a fair share of the ice cream. The man opposite them watched their interactions and couldn’t help but find the scene interesting.
He was suddenly extremely curious about the identity of the child’s father. What sort of man did this woman sleep with to give birth to this child?
At this moment, Elliot’s phone rang. He took the device out and gave it a glance before picking up the call. “Hello, Hayley.”
“Elliot, where are you? Can you have dinner with me tonight?”
“I’m at the company.”
“You don’t have to work overtime, right?”
“There’s something important I have to attend to.”
“B-But I want you with me.”
“I’ll call you after I’m done, alright?” Elliot coaxed her in his gentlest voice.
Anastasia immediately knew that it was Hayley. She looked up at the man opposite her and noticed his gentle expression as he coaxed Hayley just like a lover would. It looks like Hayley never lied after all.
It was true that she was someone important to Elliot.
“President Presgrave, is Hayley your girlfriend?” Anastasia’s gaze was sharp as she looked at the man in front of her.
“We’re just friends,” Elliot explained in a low voice.
“Mr. Handsome is single. He doesn’t have a girlfriend,” the little guy suddenly testified.
She turned to look at her son. “And how do you know?”
“He told me himself. He also said that as long as you’re willing to marry him, he’s willing to marry you too. Mommy, let’s not be picky, all right? Just get married!” The 4-year-old kid was worrying about his mother.
Anastasia was dumbfounded. Then, she narrowed her eyes as she shot a warning glare at the man opposite her. What did he tell Jared?
However, she was met with a complicated and meaningful gaze.
