Chapter 307
Anastasia’s words left Tavon blushing from ear to ear.
Throughout the night, Anastasia maintained a poker face. Tavon put down his glass and said, “Anastasia, we all welcome you to Willowbrook, Ashley, your siblings, and I. I specifically reserved this restaurant to celebrate your arrival. Can’t you see our good intentions?”
Seeing Tavon getting heated, Salma started to feel uneasy. She kept shooting Anastasia glances while trying to explain to Tavon, “Anastasia just arrived, and she’s not quite familiar with…”
“Mom, could you pop downstairs and grab me some pads?” Anastasia interrupted Salma, with a smile. She couldn’t stand seeing her mom groveling in front of Tavon, so she used this excuse to get Salma to leave.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSalma knew exactly what Anastasia was up to, but she worried about leaving Anastasia alone. She looked at Tavon hesitantly. Anastasia took Salma’s hand and smiled. “Mom, could you help me out? You know what brand I usually use.”

“…Alright then.” Salma had no choice but to leave.
After Salma left, Anastasia gave everyone at the table a cold look. Ashley’s face was full of smugness and contempt. Sean looked displeased, while Sandy sat weakly in her chair, expressionless.
Anastasia said, “Today is indeed a rare, good day, so let me clear the air. Tavon, do you really want me to accept you as my father? If we don’t sort this issue out, we won’t be able to enjoy this meal.”
Tavon responded immediately, “You are my daughter, so of course, you should accept me as your father. Is there any doubt about that?”
“Good,” Anastasia nodded. “Then I have three conditions. If Tavon can agree to them, I’ll accept you as my father. You left me and my mom 25 years ago, and now you come back expecting to reap the benefits. Does that seem fair to you?”
Anastasia’s blunt words made Tavon’s face turn beet red. He glanced at Ashley subconsciously, who sneaked a look at Tavon. She was very concerned about Tavon’s past relationship with Salma. Anastasia’s boldness also took Sandy and Sean aback.
Tavon said, “Anastasia, whatever conditions you have, say them.”
Anastasia said straightforwardly, “First, I want to split the family property. I don’t want any shares or houses, just convert them all into cash and put it into my account. I only want a third.”
This first condition was unacceptable to Ashley. “That’s not possible, Anastasia, you’re being too greedy. You just arrived, and you want a third. That’s me and your father’s property.”
Sean also turned pale. “You’re clearly here for the money. A split is impossible.”

Tavon didn’t respond. Anastasia ignored Ashley and Sean’s reactions and continued, “Second, I want a family recognition banquet and a public announcement in the media that I am the eldest daughter of the Morton family. Third, a public apology to my mother in the media.”
When these three conditions were put forward, Tavon felt extremely uncomfortable, as if he had swallowed a fly. Except for the second condition, he couldn’t fulfilly any of them.
Ashley suddenly stood up and said, “That’s impossible. None of these three conditions can be met, Anastasia. We’ve already helped you find your roots, and that’s good enough. You’re not satisfied. We gave you shares and houses. Don’t be greedy.
Anastasia sneered at Tavon. “Tavon, can’t you fulfill them?”
“Anastasia, I…” Tavon looked embarrassed, “The company’s funds are tight, many projects are waiting for funds, If we take out a third all at once, it might cause the company to go bust. Holding a family recognition banquet, acknowledging you as the eldest daughter of the Morton family, I can do that. But the others, could you reconsider?”
