Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 736

Meanwhile, oblivious to the scheme being hatched against her, Anastasia was in Harrison's office, studying her medical textbooks.

She hadn't forgotten about her upcoming assessment at the Global Harmony Medical Institute headquarters. Though confident in her abilities, she wasn't arrogant enough to neglect her studies when she had the time.

She could have done this at home, but after some thought, she had decided to pack up her books and come to the Lancaster Group with Harrison, taking over half his office space.

Occasionally, she would look up and see her handsome hubby at his desk on the other side of the room. It was pure bliss!

She'd sneak a peek, then another a few moments later...

"Focus on your books. Staring at your hubby won't help you learn," a fond, amused voice suddenly said. Harrison capped his pen, having caught Ana in the middle of her daydreaming.

Anastasia's face flushed with embarrassment, and she mumbled a defense, "Who says it won't? I think it does..."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes!" she said, her confidence growing.

Harrison found this amusing and was about to reply when Logan announced from the outer office that Ryan and Victor Lancaster had arrived.

The smile vanished from Harrison's lips. "Let them in," he ordered coolly.

He turned to Anastasia, his voice softening. "Ana, why don't you go into the lounge for a bit?"

"Okay." Anastasia obediently gathered her books and went into the adjoining lounge.

However, she didn't go back to her books. Instead, she left the door to the lounge cracked open, peeking outside.

Harrison glanced back and saw her, a flicker of amusement in his eyes, but he said nothing and turned away, pretending not to have noticed.

Ryan and Victor entered the office.

In the lounge, Anastasia, who was still listening at the door, was rendered speechless by their audacity.

A manager? Why not just hand him the entire Lancaster Group while they were at it? And he was an illegitimate son! Where did Victor get this confidence?!

She peeked through the crack at her hubby and saw that his expression hadn't changed one bit. He looked coolly at Ryan. "Victor's reason is that Simon is of Lancaster blood. What's yours, Father?"

His voice was flat, without inflection, but the sarcasm was unmistakable.

Simon may have been born out of wedlock, but at least he had Lancaster blood. What was Lennon? Nothing but the son of a mistress.

Anastasia's gaze shifted to Ryan, expecting him to be furious, but his expression remained as placid as Harrison's—a family trait, she supposed.

"My reason is that he calls me 'Father,' and he is now my son." Ryan stated this simply, looking directly at Harrison.
