Chapter 296 Those Are Just Empty Words

It had turned 9:30PM at some point. Anastasia unconsciously yawned as she looked out the window and took note of autumn night sky. It seemed like winter was just around the corner.

At this moment, she heard a sound from the main entrance of the villa, she guessed that Elliot and Jared had returned from their walk.

As soon as she came out to greet them, she saw Elliot holding the sleeping Jared in his arms with one of his coats covering the young boy’s body. Surprised, she hurried over and asked, “How did he fall asleep?”

“Jared got tired from walking. I will take him to the bedroom.” After saying that, Elliot started walking up the stairs with his long legs as Anastasia closely followed after them.

Elliot was already acting like a father. He gently placed Jared on the bed, took off his coat and shoes, covered him with the blanket, tucked him in, and brushed his jet black hair on his forehead before he pressed a kiss on the child’s clear forehead.

She was surprised as she stood at the door and watched their interaction. Is Elliot’s love for Jared true? she wondered.

Does he really like a child that has no blood ties with him?

She was still in a daze when the man walked toward her and took advantage to hug her by the waist. He then gently closed the door.

In a panic, she quickly took a step back and stretched out her hands to push him by his strong chest. However, the man deliberately stuck close to her, his deep eyes revealing a myriad of emotions.
