Whispers of betrayal (Selena and Ryan) novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103

“Thank you, Mr. Quinn.” Jason was very polite to Zachary. After all, Zachary was the only one who dared to stand up and speak for Anastasia when public opinion caused quite a stir on the internet.

“It’s nothing. But I’m not a philanthropist.” Zachary got up and looked at Jason meaningfully.

He was not a philanthropist and did not have any contact with Anastasia over the years. Naturally, he was only willing to help her because he had his own intention of doing so.

Zachary liked Anastasia very much. Now that Anastasia was going to get a divorce and it caused such a huge commotion, he naturally wanted to fight for a chance.

Jason’s expression darkened. “Goodbye, Mr. Quinn.”

“It’s fine if he wants benefits. But if he wants Anastasia, it won’t happen,” Jason mused to himself.

“About Snowball…” After Zachary left, Jason sat by the bed. “I buried it under the cherry tree in the backyard.”

Anastasia looked at Jason and spoke in a low voice. “The house… We won’t be staying there forever. Now that we buried Snowball there…”

Anastasia spoke cautiously for fear of hurting Jason’s pride.

After all, in Anastasia’s memory, Jace did not like men.

However, in order to survive, he must have suffered a lot abroad.

Jason was embarrassed for a moment. He opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not say anything.

Anastasia looked at Jason who hesitated to speak. She felt that it must be difficult for him to bring it up. Moreover, it must be some past that he did not want to recall.

“Why did you choose to study abroad, Jason?” Anastasia asked in a hoarse voice.

Jason lowered his head and remained silent for a long time. He did not say anything.

Anastasia’s heart tightened. She was afraid that she might touch on Jason’s painful past, so she quickly changed the topic. “We can’t live in Hillscester Mansion forever, Jason. I still have some savings. Do you think we can rent a house first and buy it later after we have more money?”

Upon hearing her remark, Jason was stunned for a moment and looked up at Anastasia in shock. “Did you say… us?”

Anastasia was silent for a long time before she finally spoke, “Yes.”

Jason’s life had been hard enough. Although she lived a broken life, she always wanted to help others.

“Even if it was six years ago, or even now, I always treat you as a young man, Jason. We can be a family, and we can be siblings. But the only thing that we cannot become is lovers…”.

Anastasia had to remind him about it first.

Before she died, she wanted to take good care of Jason and help him to make all his scars from the past disappear as much as possible.

Moreover, she wanted to take him out of the traumatic events.

Furthermore, she wanted to give him a home.

Nevertheless, she could never be his lover.

It was because Anastasia did not know what crazy things Jason would do after she died once she had that kind of relationship with him.

Jason’s eyes darkened and he kept silent.

After all, they had a long time ahead of them, so he could do it slowly.
