Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 585

“When you’re holding me, the pain just disappears.”

He gave her another gentle pat. “Behave.”

He started toward the stairs, but Anastasia’s phone suddenly rang. It was Juliet. Anastasia, feeling relaxed, answered with a smile.

“Juliet, what’s up?”

She assumed her cousin was just calling to chat, but Juliet’s tone was tense.

“Anastasia, are you free? Grandfather wants you to come over right away.”

Anastasia paused. “Grandfather? Did he say why?”

She had known this was coming. Once she had demonstrated her true abilities and dealt with Lauren, her grandfather would inevitably summon her to discuss the inheritance. But Juliet’s voice suggested something more was wrong.

Lowering her eyes for a moment, she said, “Alright, I’m on my way.”

After hanging up, she spoke before Harrison could. “It’s okay, darling. I can go by myself.”

Harrison’s brow furrowed. After a tense moment, he said, “You have two hours. If you’re not back, I’m coming to get you.”

“Deal!” she chirped, standing on her toes to press a quick kiss to his chin.

When Anastasia arrived at the Brennan estate, she took in the scene at a glance: her grandfather, his face a thunderous mask; Lauren, sitting beside him with her head demurely bowed; her Uncle Murray, looking displeased; and a nervous, unfamiliar middle-aged man.
