Whispers of betrayal (Selena and Ryan) novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44

“Anastasia, I have a bottom line in my tolerance and the guilt I feel toward you,” said Alastor, who was obviously reluctant to waste time playing mind games with Anastasia.

“All right. I’m looking forward to seeing what methods you will use to deal with me,” said Anastasia stubbornly as she shook off Alastor’s arm and left.

Alastor kicked the car door in frustration and pulled at his tie

“Anastasia! Jason has a criminal record and had gone to a juvenile detention center, shouted Alastor furiously.

It was clear that he wanted to use this to threaten Anastasia.

Anastasia stopped in her tracks as her eyes stung with tears, and her body stiffened.

Alastor was threatening her by using Jason.

During the past four years, Alastor had been indifferent and respectful to her. He never got angry with her or threatened her to do anything.

Now, in order to force her to divorce respectably, he was willing to use any means and hurt her feelings over and over again.

“Jason is a loose cannon without any family background. How about I let him disappear from Hork?” said Alastor as he leaned against the door and lir a cigarette, his voice hoarse and low.

Anastasia knew without any doubt that Alastor had the ability to do what he said.

“When did Jason enter the juvenile detention center?” asked Anastasia as she rasped out a hot breath.

That day at the bar, the general manager said that someone had made an anonymous report that Jason had been in a juvenile detention center and he had resigned for fear of causing trouble for the bar.

“Six years ago,” said Alastor as he looked up at Anastasia.

Anastasia felt a sharp, stabbing pain in her heart.

Six years ago… It was when Jace disappeared.

The young man who barged into her life disappeared suddenly, and she hadn’t heard anything more from him after that.

“What do you want…” asked Anastasia. Her face and lips had turned pale.

Alastor’s heart tightened inexplicably. He subconsciously stepped forward and tried to support Anastasia, but she avoided

him

“Accompany me to visit Grandma, and don’t give anything away.” demanded Alastor. He was asking Anastasia to accompany him home and play along with him.

“What about after that?” Anastasia looked up and asked Alastor.

“Until Grandma passes away, you need to play your role well,’ said Alastor,

Alastor meant they would wait until Grandma Andrea passed away before getting a divorce certificate.

But after signing the divorce agreement, she only needed to continue to play her role as Mrs. Lopez well/

She could not interfere with Alastor and Felicia’s lives.
