My Baby's Daddy

Chapter 208

Anastasia had been meaning to get disposable cups, but she always forgot about them. To date, she wasn’t sure how many times she had drunk out of the same glass as Elliot.

She was pulled out of her thoughts when her phone suddenly rang. She reached for it and put the call through after glancing at the caller ID. “Hello, Miss Chastain.”

“Miss Tillman, I’ve come bearing good news! We rounded up the sales for today at fifteen million. While the customers didn’t come in droves, they each bought more than a million’s worth of jewelry. Never have I seen such staggering business since I started working here!”

Surprise filled Anastasia’s pretty eyes when she heard this. She wondered how these customers came upon her shop in the first place. She was sure that she didn’t rally her friends or family for support, and she had yet to advertise the shop and the products. Could these just be customers who happened to drop by the shop?

It went without saying that she was elated by how things had turned out. She would like to think that fate was being kind to her. As the night breeze picked up, she suddenly remembered that they were in the depths of autumn now. To think that she had returned to this country in August, and in the blink of an eye, November was right around the corner.

Far too many things had happened in the last few months, the biggest of which was how Elliot had integrated himself into her life. He had shown up without warning like a storm no one could anticipate, and he was so demanding that he would not stand for rejection on her part.
