Chapter 205 – Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

In the banquet hall, Hayley kept looking for an opportunity to walk up and wish Old Madam Presgrave a happy birthday, but there were too many elders, and Old Madam Presgrave was surrounded by people all the time.

Aside from that, she was also looking for Elliot for the past fifteen minutes. Elliot and Anastasia both went away at the same time, which made her wonder. She imagined Anastasia had taken advantage of the situation to seduce Elliot.

In fact, she wasn’t wrong. They were indeed together.

Meanwhile, Hayley looked up to see Elliot had returned to the hall. But when she turned around, Anastasia miraculously appeared beside Francis. She couldn’t stop herself from clenching her palm around the glass she was holding.

Were they together just now?

Out of jealousy, Hayley seemed to hatch a plot against Anastasia. She pulled Erica to the side and whispered something in her ear. Then, Erica nodded and assured, “Don’t worry. I will carry out your plan.”

After Erica left the banquet hall, she walked toward the swimming pool. When she looked up at the main seats, she noticed that Old Madam Presgrave was leaving the hall with the assistance of her maid. Without a second thought, she quickly pulled a waitress to the side. “Please tell Miss Tillman that she is wanted by Old Madam Presgrave at the poolside,” she instructed.

Since Erica was a guest and it was just a matter of bringing a message, the waitress smiled and said, “Sure.”

Just when Anastasia started to worry as she couldn’t find her son, she received a phone call from Nigel. He assured her that he was at the children’s play area with her son and that she need not be concerned.

Nigel was not a big fan of socializing at the party, so he was relieved that he got away by looking after Anastasia’s little boy.

“Miss Tillman, Old Madam Presgrave would like to see you by the poolside,” said the waitress as she approached Anastasia.

Anastasia was slightly surprised by the request, but when she glanced around and realized Old Madam Presgrave was not in her seat, she nodded and responded, “Okay. Thank you for informing me.”

As Erica watched Anastasia exit the banquet hall, the corner of her mouth twisted up into a devilish smirk. Hayley’s plan is working.

At the poolside, just when Anastasia wondered why Old Madam Presgrave would choose this place to have a conversation, she noticed Hayley sitting on the pool lounge chair. As soon as Hayley saw Anastasia, she stood up and sneered, “You’re here.”

Only then did Anastasia realize that she had been fooled. She became defensive as she glared at Hayley. “Why did you trick me into coming here?” she asked.

“Were you with Elliot just now, Anastasia? What exactly are you two up to? Are you guys messing around at Old Madam Presgrave’s birthday party?” Hayley provoked her.

Anastasia could feel her cheek heated up. Did Hayley spot us?

Without waiting for Anastasia’s response, Hayley continued, “You really don’t mind that I slept with Elliot? Do you want me to go into details of how we spent the night together?” Viciousness flashed across her eyes as she spoke with a smug face.

“As far as I know, it happened when he was not sober.” Anastasia pretended to be indifferent.

“No matter what state Elliot was in, it didn’t change the fact that he was sweating on me, kissing me, and holding me tight in his arms. I was so happy that I was swooning under him.” Hayley kept her smug face as she recalled that night.

“Stop it.” Anastasia cut Hayley off as her chest heaved with ragged breath.

“His body is well-built, and he has incredible stamina. I still remember his frantic eyes and how he held me tightly afterward; I remember him removing his watch and giving it to me. His pounding heart, his scorching body—” Hayley’s eyes gleamed with shyness and sweetness.

Hearing Hayley’s description, Anastasia could feel a wave of pain washing over her from the bottom of her heart. It wasn’t hard for her to imagine Hayley and Elliot hugging together, because she and Elliot had just shared an intimate moment earlier.

Hayley curled up the corner of her lips and approached Anastasia with a sinister smile. “I also told Elliot how your son came to be, Anastasia. His father is a filthy male escort. Who knows how many women he touches in a month? You should get a medical check-up done because if you die from that kind of disease, there will be no one to take care of your illegitimate son.”

Anastasia was so furious that her whole body was trembling. Although she knew Hayley was trying to provoke her with those offensive statements, she couldn’t take it anymore because Hayley was insulting her son.

Now, Hayley was only two steps away from Anastasia. Her mockery was clearly seen in her eyes. “Your kid, Anastasia, had the filthiest blood flowing through his veins. Perhaps he would follow in his father’s footsteps in the future. Like father, like son!” she snarled.

“Hayley Seymour, you better shut your mouth,” Anastasia warned.

Staring at Hayley’s smug face, Anastasia clenched her fist tightly to refrain from slapping her face.

However, Hayley’s eyes swept across the corridor, and she suddenly grabbed Anastasia’s hand. “You want to slap me, don’t you? Go ahead and slap me!” she yelled at her to provoke her.

Anastasia was taken aback by her actions and tried to break away from her hands.

“So what if I don’t shut up? I want the whole world to know your son’s father. I want him to be despised, and I want your son to live in shame for the rest of his life!” Hayley shouted shrilly.

Hearing what she had said, Anastasia was getting colder. She gritted her teeth and growled, “Keep going if you dare.”

Then, Anastasia started to feel disgusted by Hayley’s hands, which were clasping on her wrists. Therefore, she pushed Hayley away abruptly, attempting to break free from her grip. However, Hayley curved her lips and smirked at Anastasia as she let herself fall behind and into the swimming pool.

Seeing that, Anastasia froze for a few seconds. Before she could react, she heard someone shouting behind her, “Oh my! Someone has fallen into the water! Please help!”

I know this voice. It’s Erica.

Immediately after, she heard another female voice. “Here! We need some help over here!”

When Anastasia turned her head around, she saw two middle-aged female guests standing by the pool. Their attention was drawn to Hayley, who was struggling in the water and appeared to be drowning.

“H-Help, I can’t swim…” Hayley cried for help in a faint voice.

“Miss, how can you push someone into the water?!” One of the guests glared at Anastasia accusingly. “You should get down there and save her!” she commanded.

At that moment, Anastasia’s heart sank. She realized that she had jumped into a trap set up by Hayley and Erica. Now that Hayley had deliberately fallen into the water while Erica’s two witnesses were there, Anastasia was painted as the bad guy.

The situation became critical as Hayley bobbed up and down in the six-foot-deep pool.

Meanwhile, the two female guests paced along the edge of the swimming pool frantically, for they didn’t know how to swim.

There was no doubt that Anastasia despised Hayley to the core, but she couldn’t ruin someone else’s life at Old Madam Presgrave’s birthday party.

Hence, she removed her heels and dove into the water. She swam toward Hayley and tried to pull her to the surface.

Hayley was surprised to see Anastasia jumping in to save her. As she flailed about in the water, a murderous intent began to develop in her eyes. Just as Anastasia reached out to grab Hayley’s arm, the latter yanked Anastasia forcefully and pressed her head deeper into the pool.

There will be no one to blame if Anastasia drowns while trying to save me. In fact, people will only blame her stupidity for trying to save someone’s life when she can’t even swim herself!

Hayley only dared to jump into the pool because she was confident she wouldn’t drown. She had recently taken up swimming for fitness purposes, and she was doing well under the guidance of her private coach.
