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

Anastasia obediently left the kitchen and waited for lunch to be served after hearing his suggestion. Soon enough, he came out with her favorite lunch and accompanied her to eat.

“My jewelry appeared on the cover of a magazine. Since there will be an awards ceremony this Friday, I’m thinking of presenting the awards to my designers.” But, as the boss, she felt it would only be meaningful if she awarded them in person.

“Sure, I’ll go with you.””

“We managed to achieve so much this time and even received several foreign orders. The credit goes to Mason, and I need to him treat him to a meal “Mrs. Presgrave!” Elliot angrily interrupted her as soon as he heard the name “Mason”. In his wife’s mind, Mason was a conscientious subordinate, but he knew well that Mason’s efforts stemmed from his unrequited love for his wife.

Anastasia blinked her beautiful eyes and saw her husband was so irate that he even it down the spoon. She hurriedly went put over to his side, sat on his lap, and wrapped her arms around his neck. She coaxed him gently, ‘Alright, I won’t treat him. I will just give him a bonus.”

Only then did Elliot realize he was being too petty; of course, he knew that his wife only loved him, but the name “Mason” had subconsciously triggered his jealousy. “Okay. How about we invite him to a meal together?” As he stroked her hair, his gaze softened a little.

Anastasia could not help but snort when she heard that. “Forget it! You’re way too intimidating. I’m afraid you’ll scare him off.”

He held her so that she could sit on his lap steadily. “Am I that scary?”

She sized him up, perhaps, in the eyes of ordinary people, he was scary due to his stern and inviolable temperament, but he would always be her favorite. She lowered her head and kissed his brow. “I love the way you are.”

At that moment, the way she looked at him became lustful. His heart skipped a beat as he looked into her eyes, and his voice became a little husky. “Why are you looking at me this way, Mrs. Presgrave?”

Anastasia blinked her beautiful eyes. “I want you to cuddle me and take a nap together.”

Elliot scratched the tip of her nose lightly. “Are you trying to challenge my restraint?”

She smirked and pretended to be innocent. I’m just asking for a cuddle.” Eventually, he caved as he could not reject her request at all.

“Dum dum, are you trying to make me go crazy by c*ckblocking me?” he complained in a low voice, and his black eyes were full of lust. Even though it was mushy and made her speechless, she loved that he called her “dum dum” because he was the only person in the world who could call her by this nickname.

It was morning at the base. It was early in the morning at the base, and Angela was putting her dried clothes. in her laundry bag when she bumped into Ariel, who had also come to dry her clothes. Suddenly, Ariel blocked Angela’s way and asked, “Angela, what did you do to get in here?”

Ariel was using an interrogative tone toward Angela because Angela was three years younger than her. Angela was 24 years old this year, whereas Ariel was already 27.

“You misunderstood. I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m just staying here for a while.”

Angela answered calmly.

“Are you and Captain Lloyd really dating? From what I heard, you aren’t lovers.” Ariel was so angry about last night that the first thing she did in the morning was to inquire about Angela and Richard only to find out that they were just flirting with each other. They had never publicized their relationship status.

“How would others know about our personal affairs?” Angela did not want to be pestered by Ariel, so after she finished talking, she turned and was about to return to the dormitory.

Ariel could not help but turn her head and gaze at Angela’s back. “I quite like Captain Lloyd.”

Angela was upset when she heard Ariel’s declaration and turned to look at Ariel with a visibly dismayed look. Naturally, Ariel caught her expression and asked arrogantly. “What’s with that face? Are you the only one allowed to like him and no one else?”

Angela was reduced to silence for a moment before she replied with a smile, “Then, I advise you not to waste time; he won’t like you.” She was not sure what had transpired, but at that moment, she was absolutely sure about what she had said.

Ariel obviously did not think Angela’s reply was convincing, so she smiled. confidently, “Nothing’s ever certain. How do you know that Captain Lloyd won’t ever like me?” Ariel combed her long hair using her fingers to reveal her delicate makeup; under the sun, Angela could see that Ariel had a stunning face.

When Angela was faced with her beauty. she felt anxious. After all, she was only worried because she did not know. Richard well. Besides, she and Richard. had just started making some progress, and it was easy to fall into a state of emotional unease at this stage. As such, she left without giving Ariel a response..

Until Richard gave her enough security, or if they knew each other better, Ariel’s words would be a thorn in the flesh for Angela. Angela went back to the room and sat there for a while. During her time. here, there was no entertainment and noise from the outside world; there were only quiet mornings with the sounds and scents of nature.

Then, she left the compound to go for a walk along the path leading to the mountain spring pool. She picked. wildflowers, tied them into a bouquet, and played with them in her hand.

Suddenly, she heard a chirping sound. from above. She could not help but look up and see a hatchling with just fuzzy feathers entangled by tree vines. One of its wings was caught in the vine and could not be pulled out.

The hatchling might have accidentally fallen from its nest at the top of the tree, and now it was making helpless and pitiful chirping noises. It was apparent that it had been struggling there for a long time but could not save itself. Even if it managed to entangle itself from the tree vine, it would fall to the ground and never be able to return to its nest.

“Poor little guy.” Angela placed the bouquet down on the grass, and her first thought that popped up was to save it. She looked at the tree pole as she thought of how to rescue the baby bird. Unfortunately, the hatchling was at least three meters from the ground, so she had no choice but to climb the tree to save it.

There were many tiny tree knots under the thick tree pole, which aided her in climbing up. She didn’t hesitate to climb the tree as she could not just sit there and watch the hatchling struggle in vain.

She stretched her hand to cling to the trunk quite awkwardly and stepped on the small knots to move upwards. Her heart skipped a beat when she glanced up to determine its position again. It seemed that she had to climb onto a diverged tree branch before reaching it.

“Little guy, give me a little more time, okay? I’ll be able to save you soon,” she spoke in a comforting voice while cautiously climbing upward. The branch was thick but had no vines between her position and the hatchling’s.

She had no choice but to climb to another higher branch; she needed to leverage herself to walk on a branch under the one she had set her sights on.

She walked across the branch carefully and soon arrived at where the hatchling was. At that moment, she gave up clinging to the branch above, slowly lowering her body and hugging the branch under her feet shakily. Then, she reached out to untangle the hatchling’s wings. The little guy immediately spread its wings and jumped to the ground.

As Angela witnessed the hatchling fall in front of her eyes, she got so terrified that she instinctively reached out her arms to catch it. However, her conditioned.

response did her no good; not only was she not able to catch it, but she also slid down. ‘Ahhh-At once, she hugged the tree pole tightly. The hatchling fell onto a thicket of small trees; on the contrary, she was the one who was in distress.

She lowered her head and stared at the ground, not daring to let go of the tree. pole and jump down ten feet for fear that she might hurt her bottom or sprain her foot. But then, she was stuck clinging to the tree pole. Now what? What should I do?

Her grip strength was by no means on par with a gymnast, and it was evident that she would not be able to support herself for much longer.

She could only think of one single way to rescue herself from that situation-she must call for help. Hopefully, her cry could attract at kind passerby to come to her aid.

“Help! Help! Someone please help me!” The damsel was in distress.
