Whispers Of Betrayal (Anastasia and Alastor)

Chapter 7

Chapter 7

Alastor parked his car outside the mansion and then entered the living room.

Anastasia would usually be waiting for him quietly on the couch, or she would be painting in her study. However, on this day, the house was unusually quiet.

“Anastasia?” Alastor shouted, but there was no response.

Even the restroom and the master bedroom on the second floor were empty.

“Anastasia?” Alastor called out.

Alastor called Anastasia on the phone, but she didn’t answer.

Alastor tugged at his tie, feeling a little annoyed. It was clear that he wasn’t willing to spend much effort trying to appease a

woman.

For the past four years. Anastasia had been incredibly obedient and sensible, to the extent that Alastor had never had to expend energy on her.

Even though Alastor was aware that he was at fault this time, he still felt angered by Anastasia’s disobedience. Alastor rubbed his temples irritably and ordered his assistant to find Anastasia. “Find out where Anastasia went.”

“Mrs. Lopez is being quite unreasonable. How can she argue with you over something as trivial as breakfast? Can’t she be more understanding? You’ve been extremely busy these past few days, and yet she’s only adding to the chaos,” the assistant ventured to say.

“You talk too much,” Alastor warned in a low voice.
