At that moment, Sophia’s face flushed slightly, and she could feel a shameful feeling wash over her. If it
wasn’t because she owed him the necklace, she would never have to endure such humiliation and
endure his taunts.
He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window in the sunlight as a ray of sunlight shone on his face. At that
moment, his delicate features were perfectly illuminated.
Sophia was shocked upon seeing that.
He was too handsome and at that moment, as he basked under the sunlight, there was an
indescribable regal look to him that was quite enchanting yet seemingly impersonal.
This was the type of man that usually appeared in s and was hardly ever seen in real life. She
thought, His existence on this earth must be to make women feel inferior.
She exhaled moodily and felt that everything she did seemed to be pointless because there was
nothing she could do that would attract his attention.
“Well… I was just joking earlier on. I’m not interested in you.” She smiled sheepishly and got up to get
out of the room. Subsequently, she went to the garden and remained there by herself.

At that moment, there was a notification from the phone number used to contact the guests. There
would be a ball organized in the main hall tonight, so the guests were invited to enjoy the glorious night.
Since she had left her phone number, she received the message too. At that moment, she felt quite
excited. Can I attend the ball?
Meanwhile, on the spacious deck overlooking the sea, Anastasia came out to look for her son. She
bumped into a group of people and it was such a coincidence that the old man was the person who had
gotten into a spat with Harriet in the morning..
He glanced at Anastasia walking toward
him and greeted her kindly, “Anastasia,
you’ve worked hard.” “Hi, Granduncle Henry. Nice to meet
you.” Anastasia greeted him politely.
The other people by his side of the
younger or same generation greeted her
politely too. “Good afternoon, Mrs.
Presgrave
She smiled and nodded. These people here were this elderly man’s younger generation. There were
strict rules to follow in the Presgrave Family, which meant that there were rules in terms of addressing
people as well.
Anastasia was here to seek her son Jared as Nigel had said that he would bring Jared to enjoy the
beach nearby. She could sense Henry sizing her up, and there was a scheming and speculative look
that was quite evident in his eyes.
Anastasia noticed everything, but she didn’t show it. She merely greeted them with a smile before
leaving.
As soon as she walked off, the middle aged man next to the old man revealed a smile. “Dad, once she

family to her soon enough,” the old man reminded his son.
“I’ve waited so many years,” his son complained unhappily, “If it wasn’t for Harriet being in the way, I
would have become one of the shareholders of Presgrave Group a long time ago.”
‘Darling, there’s no need to rush things. How much longer can Harriet remain alive anyway?” A well-
dressed woman adorned with jewelry spoke up as she clutched his arms.
Meanwhile, Nigel was building a sandcastle with Jared on the shore of the clean beach. Nigel was
quite childish and he had fun building a large sandcastle with Jared, which left the young boy just as
elated.
“Mommy, look at this, I built this with Uncle Nigel.
Anastasia walked over with a smile. “That’s great.
As soon as she said that, she quickly took out her phone to record this moment for her son. The smile
on Nigel’s face widened too.
“Daddy!” Jared pointed in the direction of the fence close by and he waved to Elliot, who was busy
entertaining the guests from abroad.
Anastasia turned her head and saw her charming husband. At the same time, Elliot glanced at her from
afar. Although there was a slight distance separating them, his loving, tender look seemed to be meant
only for her..
