Chapter 1507
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
"If he isn't getting anything from the Russells, why is he treating them so nicely? Why canât he help me when Iâm his brother-in- law? Weâre his family, while the Russells arenât! I bet heâs doing it for money! I just don't know how they made their deal.I knew this bastard wasn't the upright man he appeared to be, and he'd kept it hidden for a long time."
The more he said, the angrier he became until he abruptly jumped to his feet.
"I need to talk to him."
As he was about to leave, he saw Maria chasing after him.She was trying to stop him.
"What? Donât stop me now! No matter what you do today, Iâm going to find him! He must explain things to me clearly! He went overboard this time!"
"Why would I stop you? Iâm coming with you!"
Maria picked up her handbag in a hurry as she said, "Youâre right! We must get an explanation from him! We've been so nice to his family over the years and even treated his daughter like our own.
"Ree is jealous and grew distant from me because of that, but he isnât even willing to grant us a project.Itâs not like weâre asking him for a huge favor.What a horrible treatment for us!"
Maria ranted in frustration, letting out all the anger that she had suffered over the years.
"He must explain what happened to us! I even helped him find the miracle doctor for Anastasia.If it wasnât for me, his daughter would've been dead by now!"
"It seems to me that he doesnât love Anastasia that much either.Hmph!"
Fabian snickered.
"Doesn't he have a mistress? I bet heâs going to have another kid with his mistress soon.If he truly loves and cares about Anastasia, how could he do nothing after learning that she was poisoned?"
While following Fabian out the door, Maria suddenly realized something and stopped in her tracks.
"Youâre right! Did he pretend to care about Anastasia all these years?"
"Itâs nothing strange.After all, heâs good at pretending.Otherwise, I wouldnât have been tricked by him!"
Fabian had a dark look on his face as he tried to hold back the anger that was building up in his heart.
Other than being mad, he was anxious as well.
If he cannot get this project, he must get something else as compensation.
If he did not, it would be game over for the Moore family.
The couple got into the car, and Fabian drove straight to Cameronâs place.
There was not any obstruction, as they had imagined, and they managed to enter the place successfully.
However, Cameron was not at home, and the two did not get to meet him.
"Uncle Fabian.Aunt Maria."
Anastasia heard that they had come and walked to the door to greet them.
The sight of Anastasia astounded the couple.
It had been some time since they last saw her, and she had lost a lot of weight since then.
She was standing by the threshold, basking under the sun, which only made her fair skin more prominent.
Although she was still considered chubby, she was much slimmer than when they last saw her.
"A-Anastasia?" Fabian called out in slight disbelief.
"Hi, Uncle Fabian.Hi Aunt Maria."
Anastasia repeated her greetings and invited them into the house.
"Come in."
When the couple returned to their senses, they gave each other a meaningful look before heading into the house together.
Then they heard Anastasiaâs voice.
"Uncle Fabian, why didnât you guys come together with Rhea earlier?"
"Rhea?"
Maria did not understand what she meant but got it once she entered the living room.
Rhea was sitting on the couch, and it was obvious that she had been there for quite some time.
