My Babyâs Daddy Chapter 779 Elliot answered the call. âHello?â
âHello, is this Mr. Elliot Presgrave?â
âSpeaking. To whom am | speaking?â Elliot asked courteously.
After introducing himself, the caller then brought a piece of news that surprised Elliot. Artieâs getting married this Saturday?!
âAlright, I'll definitely be there.â At that, Elliot couldn't help asking, âPardon me for asking, but may | know the name of the bride?â
âShe is Miss Emily Jennings, the daughter of the Weiss Family's prominent biologist.â
âAlright, please tell Arthur | said hi.â Elliot waited until the caller replied before hanging up, then entered the elevator with his phone in his hand.
| thought Sophia would surely be his wife, but to think that he'll be marrying someone else. This sure is unexpected.
Meanwhile, in Bourgeois, Anastasia began sorting out the documents piled up on her desk soon after her meeting ended. While she was preoccupied, a knock came at the door.
âCome in,â she said.
When she realized the person behind the door was her beloved and not Grace, Anastasia couldn't help propping her chin up with a beam. Then, she looked at him with adoration. âWhat brings you here?â
On the other hand, Elliot removed his suit jacket, put it on the couch, then went behind her to massage her shoulders, helping her relax her muscles. Anastasia leaned partially against him while enjoying it, taking in her belovedâs love and care.
â| got a call from Artieâs family informing me to attend his wedding this coming Saturday,â Elliot mentioned the call he got earlier.
âSo soon?â Anastasia looked up at him with surprise.
However, a hint of resignation laced Elliot's voice. âSophia's not the bride.â
Anastasiaâs smile froze in an instant. Disbelief very quickly enveloped her face as she thought, How is it not Sophia?! They're so in love!
âHow can this be? Why isnât it Sophia? Have they broken up? It's only been a few days since the banquet, and Arthur's already marrying another woman?! What's going to happen to Sophia then?â Anastasia rambled on.
Elliot, too, thought it was unlike Arthur to do something like this. The man he knew was definitely not a womanizer.
âMaybe he took his familyâs future into consideration and accepted his grandmother's arrangements. The woman heâs marrying is the daughter of a biologist, and they are probably very reputable.â
âThis doesn't mean he can dump Sophia so heartlessly, does it? Does Sophia know about this? She isn't being kept in the dark, is she?â Anastasia truly felt bad for Sophia, feeling that it was unfair for her.
It was probably because she liked Sophia that she naturally sided with the woman and thought Arthur was somewhat a douche.
âAre you going to tell her about this?â Elliot asked.
âHow sad would it be of her if sheâs kept in the dark while still hoping that Arthur would come around?!â Anastasia bit her lower lip and made a decision. âI'm going to tell her about it.â
âSince I'm going to comfort her, I'll go over to her place. Pick Jared up, will you? I'll come home a little later,â Anastasia said to Elliot.
He didn't say no to it, for he couldn't defend his brother from another mother too much on this, lest he really wanted to piss his wife off.
Anastasia took Grace with her, and on the road, the latter called Sophia asking where she was and if they could meet up.
Sophia and Grace were on good terms as well, so the former said she was at home and later sent her address over.
âWe're just around the corner, Sophia. Why don't you come down? We'll talk at a nearby cafe.â
Sophia agreed happily, and it wasn't until she came out of her apartment complex and entered the domineering black sedan that she realized Anastasia was joining as well. âAnastasia, | didnât expect to see you too!â
Seeing there wasn't a hint of sadness in Sophia, Anastasia immediately knew this girl was still clueless about Arthur's upcoming wedding.
