Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 524

Chapter 524

“Riley has been sentenced to death. Aliona and her people aren’t able to escape legal punishment as

well.”

“Serves them right. But how did he get sentenced to death?”

“They brutally killed Lucas’ son abroad, so Lucas sued him. He was sentenced to death at the first trial

for multiple crimes.”

Anastasia closed her eyes. There’s also the death of my mom and the kidnapping of Elliot when he was

a child. This guy deserves death for having blood on his hands, she thought.

“How are my people doing at their job?”

“They’re very professional.”

“I’ll pick you up and take you to the hospital this afternoon!

“Okay.” Anastasia nodded.

Meanwhile, Alex was in his office, but he was in no mood to work at this very moment. He wanted to get

rid of Anastasia so that he could have complete

control over Tillman Constructions by

manipulating Erica. However, he was fearful of Elliot’s power and influence. After all, Anastasia was

Elliot’s sweetheart. If anything were to happen to her, he’d probably get to the bottom of it.

He thought of Erica, who had no brains and could easily be made a scapegoat.

Sitting in Francis’ former office, Alex was enjoying the feeling of superiority when the telephone before

him rang. He picked up the receiver, saying, “Hello?”

‘President Hunter, President Zimmer from the Golden Meadows Property Group is here. He says he has

something to discuss with you.”

Alex immediately instructed, “Show him to the conference room. I’ll be there right away.” He dared not

snub President Zimmer, who was one of Francis’

longtime clients and whom he had to keep sweet.

After straightening his clothes, he called his assistant over and went to the conference roomy with the

latter. As soon as he pushed the door and entered, he

immediately greeted President Zimmer with great enthusiasm, saying, “Why take the trouble to come all

the way here, President Zimmer? If there’s anything. just call me and I’ll come to you right away.”

“What a fine young man who has to be treated with respect, President Hunter! I’ve heard about President

Tillman, and I wish him a speedy recovery,’ President Zimmer replied. Then, he continued with a grave

look in his eyes, “President Hunter, I’m here to tell you something in person. I’m afraid my company isn’t

going to be able to fill the order as specified in our contract”

Alex’s heart tensed at once. He couldn’t help but ask with a smile, “President Zimmer, we have a long-

standing

relationship. Is there anything that you’re worried about?”

President Zimmer shook his head. “No, it’s that I’m going to retire, so my son has taken over my job. He

has his own ideas and wants to cancel our collaboration with your company, and I can’t do anything

about it. That’s why I went out

of my way to come here to apologize to you and tell you about it. I’m sorry, President Hunter, he said

before getting up to leave.

Alex panicked involuntarily, ‘President Zimmer, we can still talk about this. If there’s anything about us

that you’re dissatisfied with, we can-”

“My son has made up his mind on this, so there’s no way I can talk about it,” President Zimmer said

before leaving.

Alex’s face darkened for a moment. He knew that the cancellation of their collaboration must have

something to do with his appointment as president.

Soon after that, he received phone calls from several clients, who also proposed to renegotiate their

existing collaborations.

Alex was panicked by the phone calls. Not only that, but many of his clients canceled their orders in just

one day, causing most of the orders Francis had. secured for the company to be canceled.

Alex was totally incapable of conducting

business. He had thought that he could get through the year by relying on these orders. But now, he only

had very few projects left at hand just days after the company fell into his hands.

It was justifiable if there was only one person who canceled their order, but now, Alex had a feeling that

someone was plotting against him. Who could it be? Who would have such great capability? That person

clamped down on almost all of Tillman Constructions’ projects for this year.

Alex’s face changed color; he thought of someone fearsome. Elliot.

Could he be the one making trouble behind my back? If this is really his doing… Feeling tremendous

pressure, Alex couldn’t help but rise from his seat before heading straight for the finance department’s

office, where Anastasia had an office of her own and was reviewing the accounts that had been

straightened out.
