Chapter 533
Erica returned to the sofa, her mood made even worse by the man outside. She said to Mrs Garner, “If you see that guy again in the future, just ignore him and shoo him away.”
“But he knows madam, Miss Erica. Could he be a friend of hers?”
“How could my mom possibly have such a poor friend? One can tell at a glance that he’s a beggar who came to my house to beg for money,” Erica swore unmannerly.
Having developed an air of superiority at this house, Mrs. Garner nodded in agreement. “That’s right. How could madam possibly be friends with such a person?”
Erica then dialed Alex’s number, upon which he answered the phone on the other end. “Hey, Erica.”
“Where are you?”
“I’m meeting a client.”
“When are you coming home?”
“I’ll be back in a while.”

“Come back, then. I’m bored of being alone.” Erica was yearning for Alex to come back to this home.
Unbeknownst to her, however, Alex was sitting in a cafe with Hayley in his arms at this very moment. Not only did she watch coquettishly as he answered the phone, but she even snuggled up to him somewhat purposely.
After hanging up the phone, Alex looked down at Hayley. “I have to go back to keep her company tonight.”
Reluctant to part with him, Hayley held him in her arms. “I don’t want you to leave. I want you to sleep with me tonight.”
“Just be good and put up with it a little longer. Once I get the money from Tillman Constructions, I’ll divorce her right away,” Alex said, comforting her.
Only then did Hayley pout her lips. “Okay.”
Anastasia didn’t go to her office today. Instead, she went to the Presgrave Residence in the afternoon to take Jared out to relax. They took a stroll in the park, with several bodyguards escorting them from behind to ensure their safety.
Jared seemed to know something, and a hint of grief sprang to his big eyes. “Mommy, when will Grandpa wake up?”
“Your grandpa is ill, so he needs some time to wake up. Let’s wait for him a little longer, okay?
Jared blinked his eyes. Being a sensible child, he behaved himself very well at the Presgrave
Residence. Elliot often took the boy with him to the Presgrave Group or to hang out at shopping malls.
“Jared, I’ll be busy these days.”
“It’s okay, Mommy. Just go ahead with your business. I’ll be good,” Jared replied sensibly. He was well taken care of at the Presgrave Residence, where Harriet treated him like her own great grandson. He said mysteriously, “Mommy, I saw Mr. Presgrave’s photo album last time. Guess how much I look like him.”
“Do you look very much like him?”
“Yeah, that’s right! I’m the double of him. When I looked at the photos of him as a child, I felt like I was looking at myself.”
Anastasia gave an inward sigh. To think there’s such a coincidence, she thought.
