Chapter 644

Anastasia was flustered as the wedding banquet was about to begin. While she was trying to calm
herself down, she heard someone knocking on the door. The door was pushed open and Elliot walked
in. He had changed into a black suit embellished with golden threads, and the waistcoat he wore
underneath was exceptionally intricate and structured, which went well with his prominent and good-
looking features.

Anastasia raised her gaze and checked him out. Her long-lashed eyes blinked as she was trying to
ingrain how dashing he looked today into her memory.

On the other hand, he was amazed at how stunning she looked. Dressed in the maroon gown, she
looked pure like she had always been.

“Let’s go.” Elliot stretched his hand out to take his. In the end, the both of them walked toward the main
hall with interlocked fingers. As they stepped into the hall, the holographic lights lit up on cue, which
instantly transformed the hall and gave it an exuberant vibe fitting for a wedding banquet. Through the
lens of the photographer, a couple who was very much in love walked in while holding hands.

Although they had been through so much together, their love for each other was stronger than ever.

All of the guests turned their attention to the newlyweds. Katrina was jealous as she looked at how
stunning Anastasia looked in the gown and in the wedding dress she wore earlier. Mason, who was
seated next to Katrina, was quiet and had two more glasses of wine. He recounted how young and
delicate Anastasia five years ago, compared to how breathtaking she looked now. It was as if she had
transformed into a red rose that had bloomed under the sun.

With her head held high, Anastasia smiled as she was showered with well wishes. Her gaze
unintentionally fell on a woman who had her attention on Elliot. When she noticed that Anastasia was
looking at her, the woman’s eyes flickered with panic but met Anastasia’s gaze and smiled at her the
next second. It was none other than Lorelai Presgrave.



Even so, Anastasia maintained her smile and merely made a mental note on what she had observed
since a woman’s intuition was remarkable and she trusted her intuition. However, today was an
exceptional day where she wouldn’t keep her guard up. Elliot made her feel secure, and no one would
be able to take away the blissful feeling that she had.

When they arrived at Harriet’s table, Elliot shot a look at Arthur and he immediately raised his glass
after receiving the cue. Seeing that, Harriet stood up and officiated the banquet. She had been so
overjoyed today that her doctor was on standby the whole day. However, her condition had been stable
as she had no rapid shifts in mood.

She asked the photographer to take pictures of them and especially requested for a few pictures to be
taken with Anastasia as she had her arms around Anastasia. It was probably because she wanted to
leave a trace since she was growing old so that she would be remembered even if she passed on.

“Child, you should eat more since you might not have time to do so when you receive the guests,”
Harriet told Anastasia.

“Alright, Grandma. Anastasia nodded and started eating elegantly. “In a short while, I will get Brenda
and Jonathan to accompany you as you receive the guests.”

“Don’t worry, Mom. We will be by their side, Brenda replied as she smiled at her husband.

“Elliot, don’t worry, I can drink on your behalf if the guests make you drink, since I can hold my alcohol.”
Jonathan laughed.

“Thank you, Jonathan.” Elliot laughed too. After that, Elliot held Anastasia’s hand as they walked over
to one of the tables where the Presgraves were seated. She noticed two of the elders who were
prominent within the Presgrave Family.



“The bride looks beautiful! Elliot, you are really blessed!”

“Thank you, Granduncle Henry.”

“Congratulations to the both of you.”

Subsequently, the duo walked to the other tables to mingle with the guests. The guests were lucky
because they were able to see Elliot smiling throughout the banquet. Before this, even the elders of the
Presgrave Family feared Elliot, but today, he was all smiles as he glowed from within.
