Chapter 309 Take a Step Back in Order to Advance

As she truly felt like she didn’t deserve Elliot, Anastasia croaked, “Elliot, you don’t have to lower yourself

like this. You deserve a better woman in your life. Take Miss Dora for example.”

“And let you and Alex be together? Do you think that I am not half as qualified as he is to be a member of

the Tillmans?” he argued.

He was really going to get angry if she kept pushing him to another woman.

She was stiff with surprise when she heard the question. Since when did marrying into the woman’s

family become such a sought-after matter? she thought.

“Why don’t you head back first, Elliot? It is late and you have to go to work tomorrow!” Anastasia really

didn’t want to stay with him a second longer.

When she noticed that he was not moving from his position, she could only approach Elliot and give him

a push on his firm chest to start chasing him off. “Shoo. Shoo.”

He looked down at the soft hands on his chest and he pouted as he hummed. “Don’t even think of

sending me away without giving me a good night kiss.”

Anastasia’s blood seemed to rush to her head then and she kissed him on his cheek. “Off you go!”

“Lips,” the man curtly demanded.

In order to get Elliot to leave, she tiptoed and gently pecked him on his thin lips. “Are we done?”

With that, the man finally turned around and left through the door. It was like she had finally ended the

war and breathed a sigh of relief as soon as she closed the door.

She thought about it, and she didn’t understand what gave him the right to threaten him like this.

After Elliot returned to his car, he asked Rey with a depressed expression, “Rey, have you ever

successfully pursued a woman? Care to share your experience with me?”

The assistant only turned his head in shame and muttered, “President Presgrave, I have never had a

girlfriend.”

Elliot halted for a few seconds after hearing his words and when he eventually spoke again, he asked,

“You probably are too busy from the work that I have given you. Do you want to take a vacation?”

“There is no need for that, President Presgrave. I like doing my job.” Rey was used to this kind of work

intensity. Ever since he became Elliot’s executive assistant, he had enjoyed the sense of achievement

from doing his work.

Elliot eventually gave up on the conversation. As he looked at the neon lights outside the window, his

mind was filled with Anastasia’s stubborn face. It annoyed him how their relationship had remained

stagnant for a long time.

“President Presgrave, are you troubled by your relationship with Miss Tillman? I have a suggestion.

Maybe you can hear me out,” Rey suggested.

“Let me hear about it.” This was the exact problem that Elliot was worried about. Pursuing women was

never something he was good at. In fact, he was never interested in women until he met Anastasia.

“President Presgrave, you have to also pay attention to your methods and strategies in pursuing women.

For example, you have to take a step back in order to advance. You should give Miss Tillman some

space in order for her to know what her heart wants.” Although Rey had no experience in love

whatsoever, he still knew a way or two to a woman’s heart.

Now that he found Rey’s words interesting, Elliot gave it some thought. He suddenly let out an evil smile

as his mood improved since he knew exactly what to do now.

Alex had just left Tillman Residence and had only been on the road for a while when his phone started to

ring. The caller ID showed Naomi’s name, of whom he had saved in his phone before.

“Hello, Mrs. Tillman.” He picked up the call without missing a beat.

She went straight to the point as soon as he picked up. “Alex! Can I trouble you with something? Erica is

wasted in a bar. Please bring her back home for me.”

“What? Miss Erica is drunk in a bar? That is not safe for her!” Alex immediately became concerned about

her.

“Exactly! I am so worried about her! Is it inconvenient for you to pick her up?”

“No problem at all.” The man then asked, “Which bar is she at?”

“I will send you the location. Her friend has just sent it to me.”

“Alright. Rest assured, I will bring Miss Erica home.”

“Okay, thank you!” Naomi then hung up the call.

Alex received a text with the location of the bar after a while and he made haste to the establishment.

Erica, who was sitting in her car outside the bar, was listening to her mother talk on the phone. She was

extremely against her mother’s plans for her. “Mom, do I really have to seduce Alex? He isn’t even on my

level!”

“Erica, listen to me. You have to get Alex back from Anastasia. Or else, you and I won’t even be a part of

your father’s company.”
