Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 224

“Sweetheart, you’re amazing,” Anastasia murmured, her nose tingling with emotion.

Harrison gently rubbed her ear, his touch soft and reassuring.

Ten minutes later, they left the expo together. They didn’t take the dress with them—too precious and delicate to risk carrying home. It would be delivered straight to Rosewood Manor by a professional courier.

Outside, the crowd was thick. Not wanting to attract attention, Harrison carefully handed her a mask. Anastasia pouted, grumbling under her breath, “So what if people see us?”

She honestly didn’t care.

Harrison’s eyes darkened. “Just trust me, okay?”

Anastasia knew better than to protest. She obediently slipped on the mask and let him lead her out, fingers entwined in his.

Father Benedict escorted them to the exit with respectful formality. Many people at the expo were there for Father Benedict, so their quiet departure didn’t go wholly unnoticed.

“Isn’t that Father Benedict over there?”

“Who’s with him? Why does he look so deferential?”

“No idea, I couldn’t get a clear look…”

Maggie couldn’t help but stare after them for a long moment.

“Maggie, what’s up?”

“It’s nothing,” she replied, pulling her gaze away with hesitation. “Maybe I’m just seeing things.”

For a split second, she thought that figure looked an awful lot like Anastasia.

But how could that be? That man—whoever he was—must be someone truly important, judging by how Father Benedict acted around him. As for Anastasia, well, nobody at school really knew who her boyfriend was, but rumor had it he was just an ordinary guy…

Mr. Pierce, from Kingsbridge University.

He’d come to the expo with President Lionel West, their main purpose to meet Father Benedict.

Now, they’d finally had their introduction.
