Jason looked away. “I won’t listen… I don’t care. I just want to be with you.”
Anastasia lowered her head and sighed. “I have to go, Jason. I can’t accompany you forever. You have to learn to grow up.”
Over the years, Anastasia could see that Jason had changed a lot.
However, she knew that he could be more mature.
“Kimberly, what do you think?” Anastasia asked in a low voice.
Although Kimberly’s family did not have good family conditions, her family was still well-off and managed to support her to study abroad.
Kimberly was also a good girl. Besides, she liked Jason too.
“What do you mean?” Jason looked at Anastasia. She could see the sadness in his eyes.
“I just think… that you can’t continue to be alone anymore. You have to find a partner and distract yourself,” Anastasia whispered. “I think Kimberly is a good choice. Although she’s a few years older than you, I can see that she likes you.”
“Even if you don’t want me, don’t give me away.” Jason clenched his fingers and said, “Don’t be too cruel to me.”
Anastasia was stunned for a moment, and her heart tightened.
She thought, “Did I give him away?”
She never treated Jason as her possession. “Jason, you do not belong to me. Don’t say that. I just treat you as my younger
brother.”
“Younger brother…” Jason smiled bitterly.
“Jason, from now on, you don’t have to bother yourself with anything about me. Don’t involve yourself in any matters related to Sienna or anyone else.” Anastasia looked at Jason nervously, trying to remind him not to do stupid things.
Perhaps, she was wrong.
She was a sinner who would only bring misfortune to others.
She had already harmed Jason once. Hence, she could not let him get hurt again.
Jason looked at Anastasia. “Are you trying to draw a line with me?”
Anastasia lowered her head and said nothing.
“Anastasia, what’s so good about Alastor?” Jason did not understand why Anastasia refused to let go of Alastor after all Alastor had done.
“Jason, you’ll understand when you get married.” Anastasia could not explain it. “Tell me the truth. Does Sienna’s disappearance have something to do with you?”
Jason frowned. “No, I don’t know Sienna.”
“Jason! Don’t lie to me.” It was not that Anastasia believed Alastor. It was because Alastor did not need to lie about such a thing.
“I went to see her, but she was not in the rental house when I arrived.” Jason looked at Anastasia and indicated that he was not lying.
Someone took Sienna away before he could.
“Are you being honest?” Anastasia looked at Jason.
Jason smiled bitterly. “You don’t believe me.”
“I trust you.” Anastasia looked at Jason. “Jason, you have your own life now. You can try to improve your career and follow your life trajectory. Don’t waste time on me anymore. Do you understand?”
Jason did not speak.
Anastasia sighed. “Jason, there are many possibilities in your future. However, I won’t be part of it.”
She was a person without a future.
“You have to take care of yourself. Anastasia also choked as she spoke those words to Jason.
After checking the time, Anastasia turned around and left.
“Anastasia!” Jason called Anastasia’s name.
Anastasia did not stop or look back.
She thought, “I cannot let Jason get involved anymore.”
The art exhibition was held on the day of the Winter Light Festival.
Anastasia had prepared for that day for a long time. However, she could not complete her last painting smoothly.
Looking at the paint on her hand, Anastasia leaned against the chair in disappointment.
“Anastasia, let’s eat.”
Alastor’s voice was heard from downstairs.
Those days, he seemed different and suddenly began to learn how to cook. Although the kitchen was chaotic, he made his first dish-tomato paste pasta.
Anastasia threw the brush in her hand tiredly and went downstairs.
“How’s the preparation for the-art exhibition going?” Alastor asked casually.
He made it sound like he was not the one who did not allow her to hold the art exhibition in the art gallery.
“It’s almost done.”
Anastasia’s voice was a little hoarse.
“There are too many public opinions on the internet. I know it will affect you. I’ll definitely be there during your art exhibition. This way, it will also stop the rumors.” There were rumors that Alastor and Anastasia made a scene after the divorce and that Anastasia had an extramarital affair.
If Alastor were there, it would at least stop the rumor that Anastasia had an extramarital affair.
Those who respected Alastor would also be there. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
If Alastor was not there, Anastasia could only imagine how sad her art exhibition would be.
