On the other end of the line, Theodore chided her in a doting tone, "Hathaway, you're not a kid anymore. One day, Langley Group will be yours, so watch your words. Legally, she's still my wife, and Anastasia's still alive. I haven't grabbed all the Winslow assets yet, but I'll get you home soon..."
The woman they were discussing was none other than Anastasia's mother, Celeste!!
