Chapter 160


    Anastasia took a deep breath and suppressed her emotions. “I want you toe over, stor. Come


    here right now.”


    “Anastasia, Felicia…” stor sighed as he could not leave.


    Anastasia smiled bitterly. “If Felicia’s life is important, what about mine? Do you think I won’t make a


    scene?”


    “Anastasia, you are sensible. You won’t be as unreasonable as her.” stor ttered Anastasia.


    “stor, let me ask you onest time. Are youing?” Anastasia was breathing heavily.

    Someone shouted on stor’s end, “Mr. Lopez, Ms. Stewart has gone out of control!”


    Before Anastasia could wait for stor’s answer, the phone had been hung up.


    Holding the phone tightly, Anastasia lowered her head while smiling. Anastasia thought, “He said we


    should give each other another chance. I was so pathetic to have trusted stor.”


    At that moment, her phone rang.


    Anastasia nced at the message from Felicia. Thetter texted: [Anastasia, do you like my gift?]


    Anastasia took a deep breath, turned around, and went to a corner to calm herself down.


    “Ms. Lawson, please answer our question.”


    “Anastasia, nobody hase to your art exhibition. What do you think is the reason?”


    “Those rich men’s wives and CEOs who bought your paintings once stopped showing up. Are your


    paintings worthless without stor?”


    Anastasia stood trembling at the side, supporting herself on the wall with cold fingers,


    Worried, Samantha came over tofort her in a low voice, “Annie, are you okay?”


    Anastasia shook her head, but her tears were out of control. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Lexington. stor… he’s


    noting.”


    No one was willing to rify for her. She felt sorry for Charles and Samantha. She thought, “I’m the one


    who caused this. I’m the sinner.”


    Samantha sighed. “Annie, do you know why Charles felt bad for you? You are the most talented


    student he has ever taught. Charles’ proud of you.”


    Anastasia raised her hand and covered her forehead, trying to stop her tears.


    Samantha also felt sorry for Anastasia. “Annie, you are the best and brightest star. You could have


    developed better, but you chose the least reliable method-believing in and marrying a man. Do you


    know why someone with a powerful background like stor chose to go on a blind date and have a


    blitz marriage with people from ordinary families?”.


    Anastasia was stunned for a moment before shaking her head.


    In fact, she had asked stor why he chose an ordinary matchmaking center and went on a blind date


    with an ordinary girl like her when he could have picked one of the socialites as his wife with his


    conditions.


    Samantha held Anastasia’s hands. “It’s because, from the start, he never wanted to be married to you


    until the end. Do you know that the heiresses of wealthy families depend on their talents and wealth to


    build their nobleness? They only need to polish their looks and talents to make their families proud. On


    the other hand, girls from ordinary families like us are cheap and easy to fool and control. Men can end


    the rtionship at any time. I’ve been through it.”


    She thoroughly analyzed stor’s psychology. She remarked inwardly, “I guess stor must have that


    kind of mindset. That’s why he chose to marry a blind date casually back then.”


    “You guys don’t have an emotional foundation. Did he marry you because he likes you? No, because


    marrying you will not be expensive. You didn’t have a wedding or even a sense of ceremony. He did


    nothing, yet he married a housewife who is always centered on him.”


    Anastasia’s breathing was shaky.


    “That’s why he doesn’t want you to do well in your career. He never acknowledged your career. He


    thought he could always control you just because he could support you. His absence has shown his


    attitude-that he thinks your career is not important. Even if your art exhibition ends up as a failure


    today, you can still live well off with him. However, Anastasia, you should think about yourself.”


    Anastasia bit her lower lip tightly. Anastasia mused inwardly, “I get it… I really get it. Although stor


    persuaded me to his so-called trial of giving each other another chance, he still hoped I would rely on


    him as much as before and put him at the center without any friends or my own career. stor wants


    me to live under him like a dodder.”


    “Anastasia, as a daughter, you are not filial to your parents. As a wife, you are not loyal to your


    husband. You and stor haven’t gotten the divorce certificate yet, right? Yet, you’ve already


    announced your rtionship with another man.” At that moment, Sienna was spreading scandals about


    Anastasia loudly.


    They would only stop after they made Anastasia give up on stor for real.
