While the boy wanted his grandfather to come over, she called Francis and arranged the plan with him. Needless to say, Francis agreed to take care of Jared while Anastasia was away, telling her that he would take the child with him for some

snacks for him. Then, she went back home to continue her design work while Jared played with his Lego. At the same time, they were accompanied by the windy breeze that wafted through the window as the white curtains billowed with it.
