My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 362

Chapter 362: When Do We Start?
Anastasia arrived at the Wallace enterprise, Julian by her side as they watched the company building from across the street. It was large and looked just like what she’d seen on the internet.

“Are you sure you don’t want to go inside, even just for a moment?” He asked her, concern evident in his tone.

“Not at all,” she replied.

Anastasia was supposed to visit the Clark mansion that day, but it was impossible to get into the heavily guarded estate due to their tight security. Her face wasn’t recognized and the estate was meant for only influential and powerful people to live in.

So, she decided to come to the Wallace mansion instead.

Julian sighed and decided to drop the matter.

After waiting for what felt like forever with no sign of Xavier leaving the company building, they finally decided to head back to the hotel.

“Let’s go back to Xattlewood,” Anastasia suddenly said, shocking Julian once more.

Since she’d woken up, everything that seemed to fall out of her mouth was unexpected.

First, it was to go back to Radiantia, then she told him she wanted revenge. In the morning, she informed him she’d already gone to the Harrison mansion and had almost been caught, and now, she wanted to go back to Xattlewood, just like that.

“What?”

“Let’s go back.”

“So, you’re not going to see your family? Not even once?” He asked, beginning to worry even more. He might not have said anything in the past few weeks, but he was starting to notice how detached she was becoming, that was why he’d suggest she went to therapy. Unfortunately, she’d rejected that offer.

Her eyes had always been shallow and empty since he met her, trembling with fear of what was to come when she was at the house. However, now, it was even more shallow, as if she had no reason for them to sparkle anymore.

He was aware he was also a cause for what had happened to her, for he didn’t save her earlier, but he couldn’t help but worry she was losing herself because she wanted to make her enemies pay for what they’d done to her.

“I’ll visit them after I’ve completed my goals.” Then she looked up at him with determination. “I wouldn’t want them to see how miserable I look now. They will only look at me with pity and I don’t want that.”

“You still—” Julian stopped himself from talking any further. Anastasia had made her decision and he was sure nothing he said would make her change her mind.

The day passed with both of them packing their bags and booking their tickets for their trip back to Xattlewood.

In Xattlewood

“And where the hell did Julian go off to?” Xander questioned Samantha who was on a phone call with someone. She scowled at him before respectfully ending the phone call.

“Julian said he’s in Radiantia,” she replied, arranging some documents on her desk. She was at her office at the factory, looking worn out from looking after so many girls and making sure they were healthy for more surrogacy.

“And what’s he doing in Radiantia?” Xander questioned, exasperated now because Julian didn’t mention to him especially that he was traveling out of Xattlewood.

Samantha sighed, rubbing the skin between her eyebrows in frustration. “I don’t know. Probably for a business trip. He said he’ll be arriving today though.”

Xander didn’t seem to believe it as his eyebrows squinted in suspicion.

“Julian has been acting weird lately. That’s for sure. He rarely comes to events or the factory or even brings in new clients,” he said, finally deciding to take a seat.

“What are you talking about?” Samantha asked with confusion etched evident in her tone.

“Julian is barely available these days,” Xander concluded, combing his locks of dark hair with his fingers.

“Of course, he’s not always available. He has a daughter and his own business he needs to take care of. How do you expect him to be available all the time?” Samantha questioned. She was displeased with his presence especially after he interrupted her call and now he was asking irrelevant questions.

Xander sighed, realizing he was overreacting.

Anastasia and Julian arrived in Xattlewood and went back to his home. Julian received a phone call while Anastasia went back to her room.

Emma was still at school and Alex hadn’t arrived yet.

Anastasia stayed secluded in her room for a while until she was called by Julian. She went to his room where she saw Alex and Julian waiting for her to arrive.

“I’m sure you must be wondering about how to find out the identities of those men that violated you the night of the crimson hunt,” said Julian and a chill ran down Anastasia’s spine. “These are their names and everything you would want to know about them.”

Anastasia looked at the scattered photos on the table, her eyes falling on the faces of those people who used her body as they pleased that night. It was dark that day, so she didn’t know what they looked like. However, there was only one person she recognized. It was Mr. Steven, the man who’d checked her for infections before she was taken to the baby factory.

He was smiling in his picture, looking very innocent and happy as if he didn’t kill someone a few months ago, and probably more as time went on.

She checked the others.

Without a doubt, they were influential people, that’s why they didn’t blink an eyelash to be a part of such a crime. They had people who were willing to risk their lives to prove they could never do such a thing.

They were public servants who served the people well—politicians who placed the needs of the public first before theirs as a facade.

Getting rid of them was going to be difficult, that was for sure, but Anastasia didn’t waver. She was willing to take them on.

“So, when do we start?” She asked.
