My Baby's Daddy Chapter 622
Chapter 622
Hearing the stomping footsteps, Anastasia hastily sneaked into the wing, in which she watched a
furious man leave the house. She could recognize the familiar face-he was none other than
Elliot's granduncle, as well as Tyler's younger cousin.
Right then, Harriet's voice pulled Anastasia back from her reverie. "Anastasia, come on in."
Anastasia jumped a little, for she had not expected Harriet to notice her presence. She
apologized as soon as she went inside, "I'm sorry, Grandma. It wasn't on purpose."
Harriet beckoned Anastasia to come over. "Come here, Anastasia. It doesn't matter because you
gotta know all these. You will take over my position and handle every household matter soon."
The weight on Anastasia's shoulders felt heavier when she heard that. Obviously, means and

"That's my cousin-in-law. Elliot calls him Granduncle. It isn't the first time asking me to allow
their family to join the board of directors of Presgrave Group. And I've always refused to do
that." Harriet sighed before continuing, "I must separate work and my personal life. According to
the family rules, the kids aren't allowed to work in the Presgrave Group. We can help them to
build their wealth, but we can't share wealth. Do you get it?"
Anastasia nodded as she knew that there was a reason for such a rule to exist.
"They might think that I'll pity them and bend the rules because of my old age. They keep forcing me to change it.
Anastasia, you'll be the one managing this kind of matter, but I'm afraid that they will put you into a tough position
due to your young age." Harriet was feeling helpless.
Needless to say, Anastasia was already feeling the pressure as she nodded. "I will do my best to handle everything."
"Of course, I'll teach you how in future. Right now, all you have to do is to prepare for the wedding. Don't sweat
about others," soothed Harriet.
"I will. Grandma, where's Jared?"
"Nigel took him out early in the morning. They get along well." Harriet broke into a smile.
"Then, shall we go out for a walk together?" Anastasia decided to accompany the old woman to brighten her mood.
"Great idea. I'll introduce you to other family members along our way too." Then, they headed outside,
Every single time they bumped into the Presgraves, Harriet never failed to remember their names and relationship,
impressing Anastasia with her sharp memory despite the old woman being in her 80s. While Anastasia was busy
understanding more about her family, Elliot was busy welcoming some important guests from abroad.
At the same time, it was another same old day of cooping in the villa for Sophia, who was dying from boredom in
Villa No. 58. Although Arthur was present as well, he had been using his lapiop in the living room the whole time.
When she was staring at the sea from the balcony, she heard a voice coming from the courtyard.
"Sophia."

"Sophia, let's go to the beach and have fun!" Jacob was sitting on a quad bike to take her for a
ride.
The look of ecstasy on Sophia's face illustrated her desire to go. "Wait for me!"
She went downstairs in great haste and, as soon as she met Arthur's cold gaze, she stopped in
her tracks.
"You're not allowed to go out," he responded icily as he had heard Jacob too.
"Please, Young Master Weiss. We can have fun on the island anyway. Can't I just go out and
play?" Sophia interlaced her hands together and pleaded with beady eyes.
"No can do." However, Arthur stared at the laptop screen and rejected her like a strict and
heartless parent.
Gazing at the handsome face, she bit her lips in frustration.
