Chapter 946
Anastasia narrowed her eyes. It wasn’t until Susan was gone that she stepped out from her hiding spot.
Back in their room, Harrison had already showered and changed. “You’re back? Come and eat p>
Anastasia ran over. “I just saw Susan p>
“Hmm?” Harrison wasn’t particularly interested in Susan. He pulled her down to sit, asking casually, “Are you sure p>
“Of course I’m sure! When I saw her, she was arguing with a man. And you know who it was? That resort employee we ran into yesterday p>
She declared to Harrison with certainty, “The two of them were being so secretive, and they even found such a secluded spot. They must have been making some kind of shady deal p>
Harrison said, “If you’re interested, I can have someone look into it p>
Anastasia shook her head. “Oh, no need. Your men are so busy, and it’s not that important. I can look into it myself for fun p>
Harrison let her be, gently wiping a bit of soup from the corner of her lips. “Alright, then. You can handle it p>
It was three hours later when they arrived back home.
Harrison had a lot of work piled up after taking so many days off, so he had to head to the company not long after they walked in the door.
Anastasia felt a pang of sympathy. As he was leaving, she tied his tie for him and said with puffed cheeks, “When will you not have to work so hard p>
“Soon,” Harrison promised, kissing the top of her head.
He was used to keeping everything under his own control, which naturally kept him busy. But now that he had his Ana, it was a habit he needed to change.
The company was important, but being with her was more so.
He hadn’t told Anastasia any of this, but he was already in a transition period. He was sure it wouldn’t be long before he could relax and have much more time to spend with her.
After seeing Harrison off, Anastasia thought of Susan, and then remembered it was time for Carter’s check-up. She picked up her medical kit and headed out as well.
When she arrived, she rang the
doorbell, and a maid immediately came to open the door. “Ms. Sterling,
you’re fiere. The master mentioned
this morning that you would be
coming for the young master’s
check-up today. He was right.
Please, come in p>
Anastasia nodded and followed the maid inside. Just as she reached the entryway, an imperious voice drifted to her ears-
“Didn’t I tell you yesterday? Why isn’t my walk-in closet organized yet? This leaves me nowhere to put my clothes! I’m giving you a few more hours. If it’s not done by then, you can pack your bags p>
Rounding the entryway, she saw it
was Crystal Compared to the
pathetic State Anastasia had last
seen her in at the cramped
apartment
, she had clearly
reverted to her old spoiled princess attitude.
The two maids Ryan had hired were cowering under her tirade.
Anastasia let out a derisive laugh.
Crystal whipped her head around. Her face changed when she saw Anastasia, and she blurted out, “Anastasia? What are you doing here p>
The maid who had let Anastasia in, also new, was clearly annoyed with Crystal. She said flatly, “Ms. Crystal, Ms. Sterling is here for the young master’s check-up p>
Anastasia looked at Crystal with a smirk. “I heard from Carter that you and your mother are staying here as guests. But from your attitude just now, Ms. Lancaster, one would hardly think so. Anyone who didn’t
know better would assume this was your house p>
