Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 41

She’d changed into a fresh outfit—a pale blue dress that set off her long, slender legs. Her eyes sparkled with liveliness, and she stood tall and graceful, a picture of youthful elegance.

Harrison paused for a moment before nodding. “Alright. Come in and get it yourself,” he said.

Anastasia stepped inside, and within a few steps, the bouquet she’d been hiding behind her back was revealed.

Harrison looked momentarily surprised. “You still have that?”

Anastasia felt a little embarrassed—the flowers were nearly wilted, yet she’d still kept them.

But when she met his slightly astonished gaze, she mustered up the courage to say, “You gave them to me. How could I throw them away? I’m going to keep them pressed in my book for safekeeping!”

Harrison was silent, his eyes growing a shade deeper as he looked at her.

That evening, they had dinner together.

Anastasia had thought he’d only agreed to join her that one time, but now it seemed he intended to eat with her regularly. The thought delighted her, though she kept her happiness to herself.

After dinner, as she was about to leave the table, Harrison’s phone suddenly rang. It was Elder Mrs. Lancaster calling.

Standing nearby, Anastasia could vaguely hear the elderly woman’s voice on the line, talking about how she’d visited a church to pray for him and had picked up a blessed pendant. She’d be bringing it over tomorrow and insisted he wear it for safety and good fortune.

Harrison responded gently, “Alright.”

Then Mrs. Lancaster’s tone turned probing. “That young lady from the Sterling family has moved into Rosewood Manor, hasn’t she? How is she?”

Harrison paused, glancing to the side. His features softened, almost unconsciously. “She’s wonderful.”

It was the first time Anastasia had ever heard him offer a positive opinion. In the past, he’d always sounded indifferent or even displeased whenever anyone brought up a potential match.
