Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 679

Anastasia nodded in understanding. A worried look crossed her face, and she started to ask why Marina needed a therapist, but then she remembered Ryan, Susan, and their illegitimate child, and the words died on her lips.

Speaking of which, while Susan and her children had been kicked out, the son she had with Ryan remained. He was, after all, a Lancaster by blood. But the boy was even more of a mystery than Marina. Anastasia hadn't seen him once since she arrived. She had overheard the staff whispering that the "young master" was in poor health and rarely appeared in public.

As these thoughts drifted through her mind, Harrison’s fingers gently threaded through her hair. “Are you adjusting okay here?” he asked softly.

Anastasia snapped back to the present and nodded. “Mm-hmm.”

They spoke in low tones, and Anastasia snuggled closer, her head resting against his firm chest. The drowsiness began to fade, replaced by a quickening heartbeat. She shifted again, her hand moving restlessly under the covers.

Harrison’s breath hitched. He caught her wandering hand, his voice a mixture of amusement and surrender. “…Ana.”

“Hubby…” she whispered, looking up at him, her eyes shimmering in the dim light.

His gaze darkened.

The next morning, Anastasia was so tired she could barely open her eyes. She felt the bed shift as Harrison got up to leave and let out a soft, protesting whimper. “Hubby…” she mumbled, her hand reaching out to stop him.

A warm hand enveloped hers and gently tucked it back under the covers.

“Shh, go back to sleep. I have to go to work.”
