Chapter 322 Did She Dress Up Specially?

In order to drive Anastasia away, Aliona did not mind revealing her dark side as she was threatened by

Anastasia’s beauty.

Anastasia stopped for a split second before discovering that this seemingly sweet and harmless girl had

a dark side. “You two may go ahead and show off your affection. It won’t affect me.”

She elegantly caressed her long hair in the mirror and intended to leave.

When Aliona realized that Anastasia refused to leave the party, she reached out with her hand and

clasped Anastasia’s wrist. Aliona narrowed her eyes and warned, “Anastasia Tillman. I hope that you can

leave so you don’t disturb me and Elliot.”

That in itself was already a threat.

Anastasia blinked her eyes a few times and abruptly broke free from Aliona’s hands. “Don’t worry, I won’t

disturb the two of you,” she stated.

“Elliot’s eyes are only on me now. Why do you need to be here and make a fool of yourself? So many

people are watching!” The mockery in Aliona’s eyes intensified as she had always felt malice toward

Anastasia and now, there was no need to hide them.

The old saying is right. Never judge a book by its cover. I learned my lesson here. “Miss Dora, are you

lacking in self-confidence? Are you afraid that I’ll steal Elliot’s heart?” Anastasia smirked. She wanted

Aliona to understand that she was not a pushover.

“Since you are so shameless and insist on staying at my welcome party, I can only say that you have

thick skin.” Aliona snickered, intending to provoke her.

Anastasia was completely speechless. Shameless? Thick skin? Me?

“The cost of this dinner comes under the Department of Design’s expenses, and as a member of the said

department, I am entitled to enjoy this benefit,” Anastasia retorted as she arched her eyebrow. Then, she

pushed the door open and left the restroom.

After Anastasia left, Aliona bit her lips in annoyance as she had never thought that Anastasia was

nobody’s fool.

After Anastasia returned to her seat, she pretended that nothing had happened.

“I just received a call from President Presgrave. He wants us to proceed with the dinner first,” Felicia

whispered to Anastasia.

Hearing that, Anastasia froze for a second. So, he is not going to show up?

Soon after, Aliona had also returned to her seat. Her eyes were locked with Anastasia’s and there

seemed to be an invisible war going on in the atmosphere. Since Aliona had exposed her true self, there

will be no need for fake politeness toward Anastasia.

Is Elliot aware of Aliona’s hidden side? Anastasia thought to herself. Anyway, it was not something she

should be concerned about.

It was up to him to decide what kind of woman he was going to marry.

Right then, the food was served.

“Since President Presgrave has yet to arrive, I will welcome Aliona on behalf of our Department of

Design. Cheers to everyone,” Felicia stated as she stood up and held her cup.

Anastasia followed Felicia’s lead and held her cup while she glanced at Aliona, who did not hide her

gaze.

The long table that held more than twenty people was full of dishes and desserts as everyone had

started to eat.

While everyone was eating, Aliona gave Anastasia a malice gaze and took out her phone to dial Elliot’s

number. When the other end answered, she asked in a deliberately affectionate tone, “Why haven’t you

come yet, Elliot? We’re all waiting for you!”

Anastasia, who sat across from Aliona, could hear everything she said on the phone. After she heard the

phone conversation, she couldn’t help but reach for her wine glass and took two sips depressingly.

“Don’t drink too much.” Felicia leaned over and reminded her in her ear.

Only then did Anastasia realize she had almost finished the whole glass of wine. She looked at Felicia

and gratefully nodded.

Ten minutes later, the waiter’s greeting voice had drawn everyone’s attention to the main entrance.

Elliot was late, but no one said anything. Under the lights, they could see that he was dressed neatly in a

black shirt with suit pants and he walked elegantly toward their table.

The lights had cast a dark shade on his body, which made him look colder and indifferent.

“Sorry for keeping everyone waiting,” Elliot apologized. Then, he gazed around and found the empty seat

next to Aliona, so he walked to the seat directly.

However, when he noticed Anastasia was sitting across the table, his deep eyes flashed for a few

seconds of consternation. She is surprisingly attractive and amorous tonight. Did she dress up specially?

A faint smile flickered in Elliot’s eyes as if he could see through her intention to dress up beautifully.
