Chapter 167: Chapter 167

“What are you doing here?” Jason frowned and looked at Alastor furiously.

“Annie, I…” Alastor wanted to explain and stepped forward to get close to Anastasia.

However, Anastasia took a few steps back and looked at him calmly. “Stop right there…”

“Annie, I’m sorry. I’m late. The situation at that time really-” Alastor wanted to explain.

“Alastor. I don’t want your explanation. In any of your cases, anyone’s life is more important than mine.”

Anastasia shook her head.

“Go home with me.” Alastor reached out and asked Anastasia to go home with him. “I’ll make it up to you.”

She sneered inwardly, “He said that again.”

Anastasia smiled; she felt irony.

“Anastasia, don’t go with him.” Jason nearly pleaded with her.

Anastasia looked at Jason and shifted her gaze to Alastor.

After a long silence, Anastasia still chose to walk toward Alastor.

“Anastasia…” Jason chased after her for a few steps.

Anastasia did not look back but said, “Jason, go back and rest early. Don’t forget to feed Septimus.

Don’t make it starve.”

Jason clenched his fists and lowered his head without saying anything.

He thought, “As expected, Anastasia would still choose Alastor. Anastasia will always… only choose Alastor.”

Alastor breathed a sigh of relief and walked to Anastasia. “Annie, I promise that I’ll not make the same mistake as today -again.”

“There’s some exceptional situation going on today. I…” Alastor tried his best to clarify.

However, Anastasia remained silent, which made Alastor panic.

“Alastor, you won’t leave me alone if you really don’t care about Felicia,” Anastasia said on the way back.

“Annie, what happened at that time was really… Felicia threatened me with her child and cut her wrist with a knife. I have no idea what to do.” Alastor felt anxious.

“Alastor, stop your self-deception.” Anastasia looked out of the window and continued, “We should stop working on our relationship.”

Alastor stopped the car and looked back at her. “Anastasia, stop messing around. Do you want to go back on your words just because of that?”

“Mess around?” Anastasia took a deep breath. “I have yet to make a scene.”

“Anastasia, if anything happens to Felicia, we can’t lose the child since he’s innocent. Besides, my mom and grandma knew about the existence of the baby. You have aborted it without authorization.

They can’t stand the shock if something happens to Felicia’s baby again.” Alastor looked at Anastasia.

“Annie, you are the most sensible among them. You’ll understand my difficulty, am I right?”

“I can’t.” Anastasia shook her head and added, “I’m leaving with you just to tell you that we will go to the City Hall and get a divorce certificate tomorrow morning.”

Alastor took a deep breath and raised his hand to rub his eyebrows. “Anastasia, I won’t divorce.”

“Alastor, don’t be greedy. It’s bad for you.” Anastasia was calm as she had made up her mind this time.

Alastor probably could not understand how much she yearned for him to show up when those reporters besieged her.

However, he had not shown up to save her.

Instead, he had hurt her even more.

The muscles on her body were sore, and she felt slight pain in the bones.

Anastasia knew that her condition had gotten worse.

Recently, her body had always been inexplicably painful, which made her unbearable.

However, she still put up with it because she had a baby in her belly.

Now that she decided to keep the baby, her decision had nothing to do with Alastor.

Anastasia had expected earlier that Alastor did not participate in her art exhibition for Felicia’s sake that night.

However, there was a huge difference in reality, even though Anastasia had expected it in advance.

Anastasia and Alastor had reached a point where she felt meaningless, no matter what happened between him and Felicia, even if it happened once or countless times.

Felicia was pregnant with Alastor’s child. There would always be an inseparable bond between them.

Anastasia should have given him up early
