Chapter 181
Kimberly and Anastasia had known each other for many years. Thus, Anastasia knew Kimberly very well.
Kimberly would not have said anything unless it was something she really wanted.
Kimberly had only asked Anastasia for favors two times; this was the second time.
The first time, Kimberly asked Anastasia for the opportunity to go abroad to further her studies. Later, Anastasia personally went to see Charles and gave the spot to Kimberly.
Then, this was the second time.
“Kimberly, I thought I made myself clear earlier.” Anastasia sighed and continued, “Jason is an independent individual. I can’t let you have him just because I want to. Besides, if you are really destined to be with him, I will give my blessing to you two in the future when you’re together. However, asking me to let you have him… Jason is not mine.”
Kimberly held her head and looked at Anastasia. “I really like him. Can you help me?”
“How can I help you?” Anastasia patted Kimberly’s head. “How can I help with love?”
“I helped you win Alastor over back then too.” Kimberly snorted.
When Anastasia and Alastor were married in a blitz, they had no feelings for each other. Thus, it took a lot of effort for Anastasia to make Alastor fall in love with her, and Kimberly had been helping Anastasia come up with ideas.
“That’s different.” Anastasia shook her head.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
“Simply put, you’re being greedy.” Kimberly criticized Anastasia jokingly.
“You can’t let go of Alastor, yet you won’t let me have Jason.”
Anastasia was stunned and looked at Kimberly!
Even if Kimberly was joking, Anastasia still felt hurt.
“Kimberly, we are like sisters. We’re each other’s best friends. I’ve basically agreed to your every request, except for Jason. Not this. Jason is very special to me. Even if we are not in a relationship, I won’t help you pursue him.” Anastasia shook her head.
After all, it was not that Kimberly did not know that Jason was interested in Anastasia. Thus, asking Anastasia to set her and Jason up was just too much.
“Don’t make it difficult for me. You can do it yourself if you want to pursue him. It’s all up to you,” Anastasia whispered.
Kimberly took a sip of beer and said, “But he only has eyes for you. It’s one thing if you don’t divorce. Kimberly will definitely not say yes to me once you’re divorced.”
“Alastor and I… We’re going to get a divorce tomorrow.” Anastasia did not hide it from Kimberly.
Kimberly’s finger holding the wine glass stiffened. “Divorce so soon? Alastor agreed? He’s not… backing out again?”
Anastasia glanced at Kimberly and replied, “He agreed today.”
“Oh…” Kimberly nodded. “You can give Alastor to me then. Considering our relationship, it’s not much to ask for a man, is it?”
“Pfft!” Amused by Kimberly’s words, Anastasia chuckled and said, “Can you be more loyal?”
Kimberly raised her eyebrows and replied, “I’m joking. Look at your face. Honestly, I think all the men in the world are the same. You might not meet another good guy after you divorce Alastor. Thus, why don’t you consider it again? At least Alastor is rich.”
Anastasia did not speak.
“Here you go.” After going out for a while, Jason returned and brought Anastasia a cup of freshly squeezed juice.
Perhaps Jason did not want Anastasia to drink beer.
“Where’s mine?” Kimberly groaned and asked, “We’ve been classmates for so many years, after all. How can you be so biased?”
Jason looked at Kimberly’s wine glass with confusion. “Aren’t you drinking?”
Kimberly was speechless and rolled her eyes. “Jason, you will be single all your life this way.”
Still, Jason merely smiled.
“Come on, let us two drink. Don’t you think about running, too, Kimberly said. Kimberly was obviously forcing Jason to drink.
Fortunately, Jason was better at drinking than Kimberly.
At that moment, Kimberly was already drunk.
“We’re only eating fondue, and you still managed to get drunk.” Anastasia smiled helplessly.
“Urgh. I don’t feel well.” With that, Kimberly ran to the roadside and vomited.
Anastasia could not handle Kimberly herself, so she could only ask Jason for help. “Take her back?”
Jason glanced at Anastasia, his gaze still hot.
Anastasia moved her gaze subconsciously, feeling inexplicably guilty.
Anastasia did not mean to set Kimberly up with Jason.
“Let’s go together. I don’t know where she lives.” Jason asked Anastasia to accompany him to bring Kimberly back.
“It’s so late already. Anastasia must go home. Her husband has already come to pick her up.” Kimberly was very drunk and dragged Jason toward the roadside as she continued, “Let them talk and solve their misunderstanding. Don’t be a third wheel
here.”
Anastasia was stunned. Anastasia then turned around and saw Alastor’s car parked in the parking space.
“Annie.” Alastor got out of the car. With a hoarse and calm voice, he said, “Let’s go home.”
