Chapter 2040

Chapter 2040

Jared raised his hand to ruffle her hair before calling out to her fondly, “Hey, kiddo.” There were

reporters all over the airport at the moment. When Elliot and his family made such an entrance, the

reporters watched them agape. Then, they all shifted their attention to the couple in the center. Some

who happened to know Elliot and Anastasia instantly recognized them.

Isn’t the couple over there the president of Presgrave Group and his wife? What a coincidence to meet

them here! The reporters snapped some photos even though they could only share the photos among

themselves.

After all, the reporters in the country were well aware that they shouldn’t spread the news about the

couple without permission. “Look at Jared. Our son has matured a lot.” Elliot gestured for Anastasia to

look at Jared.

His words reminded her of a divergence between them back then. He planned to let Jared handle

things on his own while she was reluctant to leave her son. At last, she agreed with Elliot only because

she trusted his judgment. As she stood before Jared right now, she finally realized that Elliot was right.

“You’re right. Jared is a capable man now. I should stop worrying about him,’ Anastasia. agreed with

Elliot. After that, she turned to look around. When her gaze landed on Willow, her heart lurched.

I wonder what kind of man my adorable daughter will meet in the future. When she made sure Jared

could take care of himself, her concern shifted to Willow. She’s already twenty.

The siblings got in one of the cars while their parents took another. Once the car rolled down the

highway outside the airport, Anastasia was met by the familiar views. Memories flooded her mind and

she gladly welcomed them.

The siblings in another car had quite a catching up to do, especially Willow. She was curious about

Ellen, but she urged her brother to share the love story between him and Ellen with her.

Since there was enough time, Jared told her the story from the beginning. The shock upon learning that

Ellen was the younger sister of Jared’s life savior gradually subsided into surprise. It’s a small world!

“Jared, it’s destiny.”

“I agree with you on that. We are meant to be.” He believed that everything happened for at reason.

Even though Kevin has passed away, Ellen has me to take care of her and protect her for the rest of

her life.

“That’s sweet of you. By the way, Ellen is an amazing woman! I heard she’s a chess champion. Do you

remember the time I was learning to play chess? It gave me a headache and I had to give up on it.

Thus, you can imagine how much I respect her. She’s practically my idol right now!” Willow was already

adoring Ellen..

“I’m sure both of you will become good friends,” Jared remarked as he could tell Ellen and Willow were

birds of a feather. Later, he brought his parents and sister back to the villa. Ellen was living in New

Town for her convenience.

“Jared, take Ellen with you tonight. We’ll have a family dinner together, Anastasia reminded Jared. “All

right. I’ll pick her up,’ Jared replied.

She nodded. After seeing him off, she returned upstairs with Willow in tow. Then, she unzipped her

suitcase before taking out two velvet boxes and opening them. In the boxes lay two necklaces made of

rare gems.

“Wow, Mom! Did you design them yourself? They look elegant and beautiful!” Willow was surprised

because she had never seen them in her mother’s jewelry box.

“You’re right. I designed them myself. Back then, I got two high-quality gemstones by chance. One was

blue and the other was red. By the time I received them, I was already thinking about gifting them to my

future daughter-in-law and my precious daughter.

Now, it’s time to give them to you.” After that, Anastasia grabbed one of the boxes and gave it to

Willow. “Here, this one is yours.” Willow happily took it before wrapping her arms around her mother

and pressing a kiss to Anastasia’s cheek. “Thanks, Mommy!”

“Still calling me ‘mommy’, huh? You’re already a big girl.” Even though Anastasia teased her daughter,

she was secretly enjoying it. She remembered the days back when Willow was just a toddler. The

chubby cheeks and the sweet voice calling out to me! I miss them so much!

After Willow was slightly older, Anastasia even thought about getting another child. However, she gave

up on that thought right after because taking care of Jared and Willow alone took up a lot of her energy.

Therefore, she would rewatch their childhood videos from time to time.
