Chapter 139
Leaning against the seat, Alastor raised his hand and covered his forehead. Obviously, he should let Anastasia go and let her be happy just like this. But he wondered why he felt so depressed and frustrated in his heart.
He did not want to let go.
He wanted to keep Anastasia by his side by any means necessary, even if it would mean torturing each other. “Anastasia, is this good?” Jason leaned over and asked Anastasia if the mini bagel in her hand was delicious.
“No.” Anastasia turned her head and ate on her own.
“Let me try it, or I’ll buy another one.” Jason was able to grasp Anastasia’s weaknesses precisely.
It was not possible that Anastasia would let Jason spend any more money. “How can you be such a spendthrift? You are not the son of the richest family. Even the son of the richest family shouldn’t be a spendthrift.”
After lecturing Jason, Anastasia grabbed a mini bagel and wanted to put it in Jason’s mouth.
At this moment, Anastasia was pulled into Alastor’s arms from behind before the mini bagel reached Jason’s mouth.
Jason’s face darkened, and he frowned at Alastor.
“Didn’t I tell you to wait for me where you were?” Alastor spoke in a deep voice.
The smile on Anastasia’s face froze. Obviously, she didn’t expect Alastor to find her.
“Anastasia, let’s go home.” Jason
wanted to hold Anastasia’s hand.
“You don’t seem to have figured out the situation. We haven’t received the divorce certificate yet,” Alastor warned Anastasia.
“Alastor, don’t go too far!” Jason clenched his hands. He uncontrollably wanted to fight Alastor, but he knew Anastasia wouldn’t be happy about it.
“Jason, you go back first.” Anastasia put all the food in Jason’s hands. “Be good.”
“He has already made your divorce public but refused to get a divorce certificate with you. It’s clear that he is just stalling you.” Jason was a little angry.
Anastasia sighed. “I’ll talk to him.”
“Anastasia, no one in this world can’t live without another person. If he doesn’t cherish you, then there is no need to tangle yourself with him,” Jason retorted.
He didn’t want Alastor to continue humiliating Anastasia. People like Alastor didn’t deserve Anastasia at all.
The four years of marriage could simply be regarded as false love. If they split up, then let it be,
There were many choices in one’s life. It was not a shame to have chosen the wrong one.
“Yes, I know.” Anastasia nodded. “Listen to me. You go back first.”
At this moment, she was only afraid that Alastor would suddenly act up and attack Jason.
“I’ll wait for you over there.” Jason refused to leave Anastasia alone. He put the food in the scooter’s basket and stood by the roadside waiting for her.
“Were you happy to have your hands frozen, riding on his scooter?” Alastor said in a hoarse voice, looking at the scooter.
He didn’t understand why a realistic woman like Anastasia, who was full of schemes, worshipped money, and acted ruthlessly, would give all her affection to Jason.
“Being happy has nothing to do with what kind of vehicle one rides. It’s more about who one is traveling with,” Anastasia said quietly..
“Anastasia, don’t go too far.” Alastor grabbed Anastasia’s wrist. “After four years, even a heart of stone would have been warmed up.”
Anastasia stared at Alastor. “Yeah, it’s been four years. Even a heart of stone should be warmed up by now, but what about you? Did I put you in someone else’s bed?”
“We are not going to get past this, are we?” Alastor somewhat lost control of his emotions. “That day… really just drank too much and mistook her for you.”
“You mistook Felicia for me? I’m so flattered!” Anastasia shook off Alastor’s arm. “She is your first crush, first love. But who am I? I am nothing but a woman you unwillingly married only to achieve your goals. That’s all.”
Alastor frowned and gulped. He realized that he was not good at explaining and expressing himself in the face of Anastasia.
“Come home with me.” He figured he should just bring her back first.
“I don’t have a home.” Anastasia didn’t want to listen to Alastor. “You have achieved your goal. I have been humiliated in front of everyone at the banquet today. Isn’t that enough?”
“Jason didn’t tell you he was starting a business, did he?” Alastor said in a deep voice. “Did he also not tell you that he accompanied a female CEO of a company in and out of the hotel, in order to establish a company of his own?”
