wanasia suddenly paused in her action of wiping the table and her expression changer slirati This was a

topic that she didn’t want to talk about either, so she rejected outright, “I don’t want to talk about that.”

“It’s all in the past, so you should be open about it and let it go. Jared’s old enough now, so there’s no

need to be so fixated upon it,” Elliot advised her. He thought that Anastasia’s decision to remain single

from now on was due to the hurt she had experienced in the past.

On the other hand, Anastasia knew that he was just being kind and wanted to comfort her, but she didn’t

need that at all. She lifted her head and stared at him with clear eyes and she reminded him, “President

Presgrave, it’s quite late now.”

However, Elliot remained seated on the couch and he looked at her with a deep expression before

placing his elbows on the armrest. He then nonchalantly tapped his long and slender index and middle

finger on the couch, and he didn’t seem to have the intention to leave at all.

“Elliot, it’s nearly ten now. How long are you going to continue this?” Anastasia could only urge him to

leave. Doesn’t he have to go home and get some sleep?

At that point, he finally got up and then he purposely left his car keys on the couch. He then headed in

the direction of the entrance before turning around to speak to Anastasia, who was in

the living room, “Hand me my car keys please.”

Anastasia glanced at the car keys on the couch and she quickly grabbed them to bring them to the

entrance, but he refused to take them from her too. In the end, she could only take a step out of the

house and reached out to hand them to him.

Suddenly, Elliot stretched his arm then she was dragged out of the doorway by him. Instantly after that,

she was engulfed by a man’s scent as a strapping figure approached her. At that moment, she could feel

her body stiffen significantly. Anastasia lifted her head, and her eyes met Elliot’s smoldering look. The

aggressiveness in his eyes was quite obvious too.

Right after that, he leaned forward and pressed a steamy, hot kiss on her lips, and he didn’t give her a

chance to reject him at all as he pushed on aggressively.

For a moment, Anastasia was quite breathless and slightly stunned from his prolonged, aggressive kiss.

After she had come back to her senses, she tried to push him aside but at that point, Elliot placed his

head against her forehead and his warm breath hit her cheek as he panted slightly. “It is only now that

I’m content enough to leave the place.”

Meanwhile, Anastasia angrily lifted her head to glare at him. So he’s not content to leave without taking

advantage of me?! What’s on his mind anyway? It seems to be full of obscene thoughts!

“Just leave!” She shoved him hard and turned around to walk into her room. Subsequently, she slammed

the door shut after her.

At that moment, her heart thudded frantically and she could still taste him on her lips. IlowT.

she couldn’t comprehend her feelings. What’s up with me anyway?! I don’t seem to hate it and

surprisingly it feels quite pleasant?!

Anastasia seemed to be in a daze and she quickly forced herself to dispel the thoughts in her mind. After

that, she grabbed her clothes and went to take a shower.

At the same time, she was adamant not to invite Elliot into her house from now on. After all, he was a

beast who couldn’t seem to keep his hands off her. He’s so rich and it wouldn’t take much effort for him

to get any woman he’s afier, so why does he refuse to leave me alone?

That night, Anastasia had trouble sleeping as she lay on her bed and her thoughts kept going to the kiss

she had with Elliot by the door. At the same time, she realized that he was indeed a cunning person. He

had purposely left his car keys on the couch to force her to bring them out for him. As such, he took

advantage of the situation subsequently. How annoying!Undeniably though, he’s really good at being

provocative.

One would replace such a man hard to resist if the person didn’t have a firm heart. However, Anastasia

trusted that she could definitely resist the temptation and she wouldn’t be affected by his provocations at

all.

Meanwhile at the Tillman Residence, Erica finally had something to do. She could finally prepare for the

twenty-fifth anniversary of her father’s company. On that day itself, she intended to dress up in a pretty

dress and wow the crowd by being the most attractive person in attendance. This was a great chance for

her to showcase herself and she definitely wouldn’t let it go to waste.

At that moment, Naomi was in her room and she was busy discussing with Francis the allowance for her

attire for the event. She intended to get a stunning gown for Erica so that Francis’ image could be

upheld.

Finally, Francis relented after her countless pleas and whines, and he decided to allocate an allowance

of two hundred thousand for the mother-daughter duo to doll up for the event.

Naturally, Naomi found the amount insufficient, but it was good enough that she had managed to gain

this amount from Francis. She decided that she would take Erica and pick a gown the next day as well

as the day after that. After she had heard Francis mention that he had also invited Anastasia to the

event, Naomi decided that she had to make sure that Anastasia didn’t steal the show. Erica simply had to

be the only star of the show.

The next morning, Anastasia chatted with Jared about them attending the anniversary dinner as she sent

him to school.
