Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 704

Barnett, leaning back on the sofa, was slowly polishing his glasses. Seeing Anastasia’s bewildered expression, he couldn't help but smile. “He stepped out to take a call.”

Realizing Harrison wouldn't have just left her there, Anastasia felt a little embarrassed. “Oh, right. I didn’t notice.”

Seeing that she seemed to have tired of the games, Barnett said, “Why don’t you come over and chat with me for a bit?”

Since he had invited her, Anastasia felt it would be rude to refuse. She excused herself from Marcus and the others and walked over.

For some reason, she felt a bit formal and reserved around Barnett, much like she would with a respected elder.

Perhaps it was because he was… well, older.

Still, she was curious about him. His powerful aura suggested he was no ordinary person, yet she had never heard the name Barnett Austin before, which was strange for someone who should have been as renowned as Harrison.

“Are you wondering who I am? And why you’ve never heard my name?” Barnett suddenly asked.

Anastasia had just sat down, and she was so startled by him voicing her exact thoughts that her eyes widened in surprise.

Seeing her reaction, Barnett chuckled again. His gaze was much gentler than usual, but since Anastasia had never spent time with him before, she didn't notice the subtle shift.

She felt a little sheepish but answered honestly, “I am a bit curious.”

“It’s because I’m not some major figure. Of course you’ve never heard of me,” Barnett said.

Anastasia’s expression was one of clear disbelief.

“So, what do you do?”

As she asked, she racked her brain, trying to guess his origins.
