Chapter 778
Elliot answered the call. “Hello?”
“Hello, is this Mr. Elliot Presgrave?”
“Speaking. To whom am I speaking?” Elliot asked courteously.
After introducing himself, the caller then brought a piece of news that surprised Elliot. Artie‘s getting married this
Saturday?!
“Alright, I‘ll definitely be there.” At that, Elliot couldn‘t help asking, “Pardon me for asking, but may I know the name
of the bride?”
“She is Miss Emily Jennings, the daughter of the Weiss Family‘s prominent biologist.”
“Alright, please tell Arthur I said hi.” Elliot waited until the caller replied before hanging up, then entered the
elevator with his phone in his hand.
I thought Sophia would surely be his wife, but to think that he‘ll be marrying someone else. This sure is
unexpected.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeanwhile, in Bourgeois, Anastasia began sorting out the documents piled up on her desk soon after her meeting
ended. While she was preoccupied, a knock came at the door.
“Come in,” she said.
When she realized the person behind the door was her beloved and not Grace, Anastasia couldn‘t help propping her
chin up with a beam. Then, she looked at him with adoration. “What brings you here?”
On the other hand, Elliot removed his suit jacket, put it on the couch, then went behind her to massage her
shoulders, helping her relax her muscles. Anastasia leaned partially against him while enjoying it, taking in her
beloved‘s love and care.
“I got a call from Artie‘s family informing me to attend his wedding this coming Saturday,” Elliot mentioned the call
he got earlier.
“So soon?” Anastasia looked up at him with surprise.
However, a hint of resignation laced Elliot‘s voice. “Sophia‘s not the bride.”
Anastasia‘s smile froze in an instant. Disbelief very quickly enveloped her face as she thought, How is it not
Sophia?! They‘re so in love!
“How can this be? Why isn’t it Sophia? Have they broken up? It‘s only been a few days
since the banquet, and Arthur‘s already marrying another woman?! What‘s going to happen to Sophia then?”
Anastasia rambled on.
Elliot, too, thought it was unlike Arthur to do something like this. The man he knew was definitely not a womanizer.
“Maybe he took his family‘s future into consideration and accepted his grandmother‘s arrangements. The woman
he‘s marrying is the daughter of a biologist, and they are probably very reputable.”
“This doesn‘t mean he can dump Sophia so heartlessly, does it? Does Sophia know about this? She isn‘t being kept
in the dark, is she?” Anastasia truly felt bad for Sophia, feeling that it was unfair for her.
It was probably because she liked Sophia that she naturally sided with the woman and thought Arthur was
somewhat a douche.
“Are you going to tell her about this?” Elliot asked.
.
“How sad would it be of her if she‘s kept in the dark while still hoping that Arthur would come around?!” Anastasia

“Since I‘m going to comfort her, I‘ll go over to her place. Pick Jared up, will you? I’ll come home a little later,”
Anastasia said to Elliot.
He didn‘t say no to it, for he couldn‘t defend his brother from another mother too much on this, lest he really
wanted to piss his wife off.
Anastasia took Grace with her, and on the road, the latter called Sophia asking where she was and if they could
meet up.
Sophia and Grace were on good terms as well, so the former said she was at home and later sent her address
over.
“We‘re just around the corner, Sophia. Why don‘t you come down? We‘ll talk at a nearby cafe.”
Sophia agreed happily, and it wasn‘t until she came out of her apartment complex and entered the domineering
black sedan that she realized Anastasia was joining as well. “Anastasia, I didn‘t expect to see you too!”
Seeing there wasn‘t a hint of sadness in Sophia, Anastasia immediately knew this girl was still clueless about
Arthur‘s upcoming wedding.
