Chapter 586
Her sobbing and pleading had etched a deep sense of guilt and heartache into his soul despite the fact that he
barely had his wits about him at that time. This was why he had spent five years looking for the woman he had
spent that night with.
Elliot never would have thought that even though he was foolish enough to find the wrong person, fate had
delivered the right one to his doorstep and even brought his son back to him. He was thankful that he had done a
good job protecting Anastasia and Jared throughout the past year.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Nigel peered into the room and said, “Grandma is eager to reunite with
Jared too. I’ll bring him over to her first.”
“Jared, go and meet your great-grandma!” Elliot said as he stroked Jared’s head.
“Okay!” Jared was still a little boy and he had no clue about the magnitude of today’s events.
Once Nigel led Jared out of the room, Elliot’s eyes grew cold and menacing. There was a murderous glint in them.
“I’m going to make Hayley suffer for this.”
Meanwhile, Anastasia managed to keep her cool. She comforted him by saying, “There’s no rush. We should be
celebrating today. Let’s not waste any more time on her.”

Anastasia held his other hand and gazed at the watch around his wrist. “You should thank this instead! If it weren’t
for this watch, you and Jared would never have reunited.”
Elliot stared at the watch. It was a cold and lifeless object, but to him, it seemed to come alive and give off a warm
aura.
“Yeah. From today onward, I’m keeping it on me every day” Elliot’s lips curved into a smile as he reached out to pull
her close. Anastasia leaned into his arms and closed her eyes.

She had never felt at peace the way she did right now. She was no longer troubled by her son’s biological lineage.
At half past nine at night, Harriet’s blood pressure soared from all her excitement, and several doctors from
Presgrave Hospital kept watch just in case.
Eleven o’clock at night, at Elliot’s hillside villa.
Elliot helped Jared with his bath. The little kid had tired himself out today, and he fell asleep the moment his head
hit the pillow. Elliot sat on the edge of the bed and remained transfixed as he
stared at Jared’s face.
He did not even notice Anastasia, who had been standing at the doorway for a long time now.

Anastasia smiled. It seemed like Elliot would not be getting any sleep tonight. He was too thrilled to find out about
Jared’s identity.
She needed time to digest this new development too. Elliot turned out to be the man from that night!
Finally, Elliot sensed her presence behind him. He bent down to kiss Jared gently on the forehead and tucked the
covers more securely around him before heading out of the room. He closed the door behind him and grabbed
Anastasia’s hand.
He pulled Anastasia toward his master bedroom. Both of them were filled to the brim with things they wanted to
say to each other.
In the end, Elliot brought her to the living room on the second floor, and under the warm glow of the light, his
sparkling eyes looked a little red as they filled with guilt and self-blame once more. Anastasia raised her hand to
push his hair away from his eyes.
“It’s alright. Stop blaming yourself. I know that it was an accident five years ago.” Although he had compensated
the wrong person at first, it proved that he had always been willing to take responsibility for what happened that
night, and she saw how he held himself accountable for everything

“Okay!”
There was no way to describe the guilt that Elliot was feeling as there was no way he could make up for all the hurt
he had caused Anastasia.
· “I want to see Hayley tomorrow,” Anastasia looked up at him and said. She wanted to be the one
who informed Hayley about this so that she could see the look on Hayley’s face.
“I won’t let her get away with this.” There were countless ways that Elliot could make Hayley face the
consequences of her actions.
Anastasia had decided to sleep in the master bedroom tonight. A while later, when Elliot came out of the shower
and saw the woman playing with her phone while lying on his bed, his eyes filled with desire, but at the same time,
he tried his best to cull it.
He did not want to do anything that would hurt her. He would only do what she was willing to do,
“It’s a little cold today. I want to fall asleep in your arms.” Anastasia gave her excuse. In any case, she was his
fiancée now, so it would not be an issue if she slept with him!
Elliot climbed under the covers and opened his arms to let her slide into his embrace. Anastasia nudged herself
across the bed and into his arms. She wrapped her arms around his muscular waist and felt the vigorous beating of
his heart.
