Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 960

“She's probably here to see Grandma, right? I'll head back soon. By the way, didn't you have an exam today? Why are you still at home?”

Carter's expression softened as he spoke on the phone, walking towards the exit. “It's this afternoon. I'm leaving now, so I won't be late.”

Anastasia got back half an hour later to find Marina still there.

“Mom, I called and told you Grandma was fine, why did you rush back?” she said, putting her things down and walking over with a helpless smile. “I heard you've been incredibly busy lately.”

Marina was exceptionally fond of her daughter-in-law. Her face lit up at the sight of her, and she pulled Anastasia down to sit beside her. “With you at home, I never have to worry. But I just wanted to see for myself. It's not like I don't have a spare moment.”

Lady Lancaster sat nearby, a gentle smile on her face as she watched them talk, clearly in good spirits.

As a film director currently in the middle of a shoot, Marina's schedule was tight. After about an hour, she had to leave.

Watching her depart in such a hurry, Anastasia simply assumed she was busy with work and didn't give it much thought.

Later, however, when Carter returned from his exam, he told her, “I think Ms. Lawson is in some kind of trouble.”

“What kind of trouble?”

Carter, feeling something was amiss earlier, had looked into it and now had a clear picture of the situation.
