After getting that sorted out. Anastasis finally felt at rain.
Since Casssan was still traveling for business, she hadn’t mentioned any of this to him.
Plus, given Cassian’s high profile and how spontaneous their marriage had been, Anastasis didn’t want to drag him into family drama.
If Sharpson found out she was married in Cassian, he’d definitely pull a

Anastasia took a deep breath, got out of her car, and walked through those familiar but now foreign wrought iron gates.

They started chatting warmly.
Warching this, Whitey felt her blood boil with jealousy.
Bamn it, the old woman had always played favorites with Anastasia
Ever since Whitney had married into the family, the old bat had treated her and Valeria like they were beneath
But whatever–she’d take her time. She’d get rid of them one by one, and eventually everything the Kingdey family owned would be hers.
Just then, Valeria walked in wearing a bright pink designer gown with Jasper looking sharp in his navy suit.
Since it was Patricia’s birthday. Valeria had seized the opportunity to bring Jasper home and show him off.
She wanted everyone to see how well she’d done for herself, landing such an impressive hoyfriend.
