Chapter 355

Upon hearing this voice, Anastasia instinctively frowned. It was none other than Julie.

Anastasia thought, “Seems like she follows me everywhere.”

Upon seeing Julie, Grandma Anita’s face immediately lit up. “Julie, why are you so late? Come over here and sit next to me.”

The fondness for Julie in Grandma Anita’s eyes was evident to anyone.

Flynn didn’t care much for Julie either, because she was such a scheming woman.

Julie sat down next to Grandma Anita, grinning and greeting Grandma Terrill and Grandma Susano.

Grandma Susano squinted at Julie. “Who is this? It seems she had plastic surgery. I can’t quite recognize her.”

Grandma Susano was always blunt. Her reading glasses didn’t help her see clearly as well. Both Anastasia and Flynn laughed at this.

Julie felt embarrassed. She smiled awkwardly.

Grandma Anita said, “This is Devin’s daughter, Julie. Can’t you recognize her?”

Everyone in their circle knew Devin. However, Grandma Susano, not recognizing Julie, shook her head. “I really can’t recognize her. She’s quite pretty though. But her chin is just a little too sharp, like a chisel.”

Grandma Susano was really a jokester.

Julie’s face changed colors faster than a chameleon. She didn’t know how to respond. Grandma Anita looked at Julie’s chin. “What’s wrong with it? It looks fine. Julie is my choice for a granddaughter-in-law.”

Grandma Terrill quickly asked, “Is Flynn dating with this girl?”

Flynn quickly clarified, “Grandma Terrill, I am single.”

Grandma Anita said, “No, I am thinking of making a match between Julie and my eldest grandson. When they were kids, Julie and Herman used to play together all the time. Julie even mumbled about marrying Herman. I thought they were perfect for each other at that time, so I wanted Julie to be my granddaughter-in-law when she grew up.””

Grandma Anita completely disregarded Anastasia’s presence. Of course, she said this on purpose.

Julie blushed and said, “Grandma, those were just childhood fantasies. I can’t believe you still remember.”

Flynn reminded, “Grandma, my eldest brother is already married. It’s not appropriate to discuss this.”

Grandma Susano added, “It’s great that your eldest grandson didn’t marry this girl. Her facial features signify lack of fortune.”

People of her age usually believe in face reading.

Grandma Anita was taken aback. “How is Julie lacking in fortune? Your eyesight must be failing you.”

Grandma Susano defended herself, “I’ve seen a lot of people in my time. I can’t be wrong. Look at this girl. She has thin lips, pointed chin, and her forehead is not full. These features signify a bitter and mean personality. Now, look at your granddaughter-in-law. Her full forehead and round buttocks signify a fortune-bringing wife and a mother of many children.”

Anastasia didn’t say anything, but immediately received an envious look from Julie due to Grandma Susano’s comments.

Anastasia was helpless. She hadn’t said anything. With the two grannies making strong points, there was no need for her to intervene.

She had been giving the two grannies a easy win. The grannies, having lived for many years, saw through Grandma Anita’s dislike for Anastasia.

As Anastasia handed them the victory, they decided to back her. Both the grannies didn’t want Grandma Anita to make a mistake and lose a good granddaughter-in-law.

Upon hearing the “mother of many children” comment, Grandma Anita scoffed, “Mother of many children, huh? She’s been married to Herman for quite a while now, but there is still no sign of a baby.”

Grandma Anita knew that Anastasia could not conceive, but she couldn’t openly say this. It would make people laugh at her.

Grandma Terrill said, “Children, you know, it’s all about fate. Maybe one day she will conceive. Anita, I told you before, you are going to face a major crisis this year. But you will also meet a benefactor. If you want to turn misfortune into blessing, you need to cherish this benefactor.”

In this conversation between the grandmas, Flynn couldn’t get a word in.

Grandma Anita stubbornly said, “Julie is my benefactor. What’s gotten into you all today? You are my friends. Why are you siding with the outsider? I’m not playing cards anymore. Julie, let’s eat lunch.”

Grandma Anita stormed off, acting like a child, with Julie trailing behind her.

Grandma Susano and Grandma Terrill could only sigh.

Anastasia signaled Flynn, “Go after her.”

Flynn hurriedly followed. Grandma Terrill told Anastasia, “Anita is still the same. Don’t keep her words in your mind.”

Grandma Susano added, “We’ve known Anita for decades. We know her stubbornness. It will pass one day.”

Anastasia thanked them, “Thank you, grandmas, for speaking up for me.”

Grandma Terrill kindly said, “It’s nothing. Anastasia, you’re quite good at cards. Let’s play again sometime.”

Grandma Susano laughed, “But next time, you have to bring Flynn along. He’s been signaling you all along. We finally could win some rounds today.”

Anastasia blushed. “I can’t hide anything from you two. I am not good at cards, so I had no choice but to ask for help.”

These two grannies were quite sharp.

Grannie Terrill chuckled. “We do enjoy playing cards with those who aren’t so good at it.”

Anastasia chuckled. It was because of her lack of skill that the two grannies liked her.

Remembering that these two grannies were good friends with Grannie Anita, she had an idea. Smiling, she said, “Grannie Terrill, Grannie Susano, it’s almost lunchtime. How about I treat you to lunch and ask for some advice on how to get along with Grannie Anita? As you can see, she isn’t very pleased with me.”

The two grannies glanced at each other, saying in unison, “Well, you’ve come to the right people.”

The two grannies were so shrewd and charming, Anastasia began to suspect that their previous comments about Julie were all deliberate.

Anastasia was quite well-liked. She took the two grannies out for lunch and promised to design jewelry for them, which made them extremely happy.

After eating and drinking to their heart’s content, she sent the two grannies home.

Just as Anastasia was about to call Flynn to ask about the situation, she received a call from Monica. As soon as she answered, Monica blurted out furiously, “Ana, that damn Trevor cheated on me. He doesn’t like a young woman in her twenties like me, but he is with a woman in her fifties…”

Hearing about Trevor’s infidelity wasn’t surprising to Anastasia, but the fact that he was with a woman in her fifties was quite shocking.

Anastasia asked, “Where are you?”

“I’m at The Grand Plaza Hotel. I saw them go in. I’m just waiting outside the door. I’m going to give that bastard a piece of my mind today. I need some backup. Can you come?”

Rubbing her forehead, Anastasia asked, “Do we need to call anyone else?”

“We might as well. We gotta frighten him.”

Anastasia quickly went to the location Monica mentioned and brought Dailey with her.

Others might catch cheaters secretly, but Monica was all about making a scene. After some thought, Anastasia felt that bringing Dailey was the best choice. If a fight broke out, Dailey could be useful.

At first, Dailey was excited, thinking he was going to be involved in a brawl. When he arrived and found out it was to catch a cheater, he was dumbstruck. His status had fallen to the point of helping the boss’ woman catch a cheater.

As soon as Anastasia met Monica, she asked, “Where are they?”

Monica pointed to room 809. “In there.”
