Chapter 128
Chapter 128 Anastasia turned around to find Hayley with a glass of red wine in her hand. Hayley had her armscrossed as she sneered at Anastasia. “Do you think I don’t know what you’re doing? You’re trying topolish your reputation while being the third party in a relationship at the same time. You’re secretlyseducing Elliot.” Hayley’s eyes glinted with resentment. Now that it was just the both of them, she didn’tneed to fake it anymore and could express all the hatred she felt. Anastasia scoffed. “Are you sure you want to mess with me? If I shamelessly decide to get married toElliot, you will only be left crying in a corner!” “You…” Hayley didn’t just fail to offend Anastasia, but she even allowed Anastasia to infuriate herfurther. “Don’t you care about the fact that I’ve slept with Elliot, Anastasia?” Hayley hissed throughgritted teeth. “I don’t,” Anastasia replied with an eyebrow raised. She was intentionally trying to make Hayley angry.Right then, a hateful look gathered in Hayley’s eyes as she clenched her fists. I’m never going to letAnastasia take Elliot away, she thought.
Anastasia wasn’t in the mood to continue talking to Hayley, so she turned to head toward the balcony,which wasn’t as crowded. However, an attractive, male voice came from the hall at this moment- it wasthe host calling for Anastasia through the mic. “I’d like to invite Miss Anastasia Tillman up onto thestage. You’ve dropped something.” Anastasia froze. All of the guests were just as shocked, and they wondered if Anastasia had droppedsomething extremely valuable. Why would the host have to make such a grand announcementotherwise? Anastasia was just as confused. What did I drop? She went through her bag and searched for anymissing items. Everything’s here! “Is Miss Anastasia Tillman here? Please come on stage. Thank you.” The host continued to ask for her.Anastasia had no choice but to ignore the embarrassment she felt while shuffling over to the stage. Ireally didn’t drop anything! Has there been a mistake? she thought.
The host walked over to her once she got up onto the stage. “Are you Miss Anastasia?” he asked witha smile. “Yes, I am. But I didn’t leave anything behind!” she cried. She felt especially uneasy since she couldfeel thousands of eyes on her. “No.You left behind a really important part of your life,” the host uttered in a riddle-like manner. All of asudden, the speakers began to play a romantic song from an overseas singer. The man’s deep andhusky voice filled the hall, and many other guests gathered in front of the stage as they wanted to seewhat was going on. There was a loud ringing in Anastasia’s head as she watched this happen. Who’s the one playing thesong? All of a sudden, she saw a lanky figure strolling toward her with a broad grin on his face. Whoelse could it be apart from Nigel? Anastasia’s face turned red. What’s Nigel trying to do this time? And why is he doing it in front ofeveryone? Has he ever thought about how I feel about this? Nigel fixed his loving gaze on the woman as he took firm steps over to her. Eventually, when he wasabout two feet away from her, he got down on one knee. The whole crowd cheered like mad! Theywere all shocked. Isn’t that the young master of the Manson Family? What is he doing? It looks likehe’s… proposing to her?! At the same time, another tall figure had just started his way down the stairs on the second floor, andhe froze when he saw what was happening on the stage. Elliot’s pupils shrank as he realized whatNigel was doing. I hadn’t expected Nigel to propose to Anastasia today. Anastasia was just as stunned. She stared at Nigel for a moment before she reached out to pull him upfrom his knee. “What are you doing, Nigel? Hurry and stand up! Stop messing around!” Right then, Nigel reached into his coat pocket and felt for the diamond ring. He carefully presented it infront of her before taking the host’s mic to speak into it. “I love you, Anastasia. Will you marry me?” heasked in a sincere tone. A loud ringing filled Anastasia’s head as she widened her eyes and stared at Nigel in disbelief. Shecould tell that he was serious-he was genuinely proposing to her without fooling around at all. “Nigel,novelbin

There were tons of girls in the crowd who were eyeing Anastasia with looks of admiration and envy.Leah, who had just walked out of the buffet area, was also stunned when she saw what washappening.
