Chapter 126 Call Me by My Name
Emma's voice was surprised, warm and happy. "Do you know Anastasia? Please come in."
Jaxon greeted slightly and nodded gentlemanly, then walked in. Looking at Anastasia, who was sitting on the balcony drinking coffee, he smiled faintly as he said, "I heard something, so I came to see you."
As soon as he heard about the fact that Beatrice almost died in the fire, he knew the cause and effect.
Anastasia nodded and smiled, "I'm fine, and I'll be out of the hospital soon."
Jaxon smiled, and Emma ran over and warmly poured coffee and peeled fruit for him, but he refused politely.
After sitting for a while, Jaxon felt uncomfortable that a third party was around, so he wanted to leave.
Emma sent him off to the door, turned back with a disappointed expression, and asked, "Anastasia, how did you meet Jaxon? What is your relationship?"
Anastasia imperceptibly lowered her eyes and didn't want to answer those questions.
Although Emma didn't show malice toward her, she didn't want to have too many relationships with the Patterson family.
Besides, she didn't have much interaction with Emma at all.
She went silent for a few seconds before saying gently, "We have cooperated before. Why's that? Do you know each other?"
Emma became excitedly and blushed, nodded embarrassingly, and said, "The laboratory where I treat and recuperate abroad belongs to him. He is so powerful that he almost monopolizes the medical equipment industry in Marlandia. Thanks to him that my illness can be cured. Anastasia, please help me. I like him, and I wanted to be with him."
Anastasia glanced at her and was surprised by her straightforwardness.
But after that, she smiled, "You should fight for it yourself. I can't help you. Jaxon and I are just a cooperative relationship, and we have no other friendship."
Emma glanced at her disappointedly, complaining, "Anastasia, could it be that you like him, so you don't want to help me?"
Anastasia didn't like Emma doubting her. Besides, they weren't so close that they could discuss anything with no sense of distance.
She looked at Emma with some aloofness and said gently, "I've already explained it. Also, Emma, just call me by my name from now on."
Emma shouldn't greet her such affectionately. In addition, not many people recognized that she was from the Patterson family before she divorced.
It was no longer necessary for that.
Emma knew Anastasia was displeased, and immediately changed the topic and smoothed it over with a smile instead, saying, "But you are my only sister-in-law in my heart. Chris also told me to call you Anastasia. He still has you in his heart. Anastasia, take a good rest. I'll go back first."
Anastasia sent her away without saying anything.
After leaving, she directly sent the evidence she got to Christian.
She had revenge, and it was useless to keep the evidence since Christian had paid her 100 million dollars.
Although she spoke in a moment of anger, she would still keep her promise.
In Beatrice's ward, she looked at Christian with tears and said aggrievedly, "How about that lighter? Did the result come out? It must be Anastasia. There is no one else but her. She encountered a fire before. She suspected it was me and took revenge against me. Christian, you must redress grievances for me!"
Just as she was about to step forward and throw herself into his arms, Christian dodged sideways, and Beatrice froze on the spot, feeling wronged.
