Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman ) -
Chapter 521
Chapter 521
Today was Christmas Eve-the day Anastasia and Elliot were supposed to have held their engagement
party. However, it was canceled due to Francis’ accident and eventual comatose state. Anastasia had
also felt apologetic toward Elliot for this.
In the morning, Anastasia was to head to the company for a meeting, while she would spend the night
celebrating Christmas Eve with Elliot back in the Presgrave Residence.
When Anastasia arrived in the conference room of Tillman Constructions, she noticed Erica’s resentful
glares at her. The hatred in Erica’s eyes seemed as though it could come bursting out, as she did not
even bother to inform Erica when Naomi had been taken down to the station. Anastasia then glanced
over to the man beside Erica. Alex only met Anastasia’s eyes one time before he looked away, as he
was afraid to make any further eye contact with her.
The participants of the meeting were all key members of Tillman Constructions.
When all the managers of their respective departments were present, Erica stood up and led the
meeting. “My mother could not attend due to certain matters. Also, I would like to announce that Alex and
I have gotten our marriage certificate. Hence, from now on, as my husband and my father’s son-in-law,
he will be in charge of the affairs of Tillman Constructions instead of my mother and me.”
Everyone present was shocked, yet some seemed to have anticipated such development, as they had
seen the ambitions in Alex’s eyes. Thus, it was not surprising for them to see Alex finally obtaining the
position he always pined for. On the other hand, Anastasia was slightly shocked, as she had not
expected Naomi to make her move so quickly by letting Alex replace her as president of the company
and be the pillar of support for Erica.
“Let’s have President Hunter give a few words” Erica took her seat as she proudly turned her attention
toward Alex.
With his ambitions concealed, Alex stood
up and feigned a slightly modest expression before addressing the room. “Right now, there is no one in
charge. That is why Erica and I have decided to get married this early for me to have a proper cause to
manage the company. Everyone, please have faith in my capabilities. I will certainly take good care of
Tillman Constructions.”
Since Alex still had several supporters in the company, they immediately voiced their opinions and
expressed their trust in him, supporting him for the presidency of the company. Even the others that did
not think highly of Alex had to stick by him, as they believed Alex would make things difficult for them in
the company in the future if they did otherwise.
At the moment, all Anastasia could do was watch Alex become the president of the company and how
quickly he gained
everyone’s trust.
“Anastasia, please trust me. I will certainly not let your father down,” Alex said with his eyes on Anastasia
with the intent to gain her trust.
However, there was no chance for
Anastasia to trust him, as she knew Alex
was involved in her father’s coma.
Furthermore, considering that Alex was also in charge of the finance department, which was the most
important department in the company, it was clear that Alex held too much power in his hand. Given that
Erica knew next to nothing about the company’s operation. it was clear as day that Alex would be fully in
control of the company. No one would be able to stop Alex from doing anything he wanted at that point.
“Since the company is short-staffed right now, I’ve decided to become a member of the company. Mr.
Hunter, since you’ll be the president of the company, then I’ll join the finance department to gain some
experience. Surely you have no qualms
with that arrangement? Anastasia would not stand by and watch her father’s company being taken over
by an outsider.
“Anastasia, it seems you still don’t trust me!” Alex wore a sad expression.
Erica couldn’t help but refuse. “Anastasia Tillman, you’re not a finance major, so why are you trying to
join the finance department? Do you not trust my husband?”
“What if I say I don’t?” Anastasia sneered, “Since I hold 30 percent of the company’s shares, I have the
right to enter any department of the company. Even if I want to be the manager of the finance
department, you have no right to interfere with my decision
Noticing the direction the argument was going, Alex immediately interfered. “Anastasia, Erica is right.
You have no experience in finance, but if you wish to be part of the management, the planning
department is lacking a manager or two.”
“I want to be a finance manager,” Anastasia said forcefully. “Otherwise, I will not agree with Mr. Hunter
becoming the president of the company.”
“You” Erica choked.
“Then how about this, I’ll be the president instead, and Mr. Hunter can continue his position as the
finance manager?’ Dressed in a black sweater and black trench coat, Anastasia exuded an indescribable
dominance as she asked with her eyebrows raised.
