Night of Destiny
Chapter 299 Miss Tillman, What Are You Doing?
Anastasia had returned to Bourgeois after that.
As she was having lunch with Felicia outside, the latter told her that Elliot hadnât been to Bourgeois ever
since Anastasia had been on leave. She then teasingly added, âIt looks to me you are the only reason
President Presgrave comes to the company!â
Anastasiaâs face immediately heated up. Felicia seemed to be someone who could see through
everything. She also told Anastasia that a new designer had come over in the afternoon due to the
expansion of the business. The person was a rather mysterious person whose gender Felicia didnât
know, and seemed to have had an airborne arrival at the company.
âFor the designer to arrive in such a way, they definitely have some sort of relationship with President
Presgrave,â Felicia speculated.
Hearing that, Anastasia couldnât help but think to herself, Could it be a relative of the Presgrave family?
At 2:30PM, Anastasia went and greeted Lily, the assistant working in the general office. She reminded
Lily to inform her as soon as Elliot reached the company.
She was sorting out the latest emails she had received when the landline rang, and she swiftly reached
out to pick it up. âHi,â she greeted briefly, in which Lilyâs voice came from the other end of the call.
âMiss Tillman, President Presgrave has arrived.â
âGot it. Thank you.â
After she hung up the call, she took out the bank card with 5 million dollars from her bag. She couldnât
wait to give it to Elliot so that she could feel more at ease.
With the card in her hand, she walked in the direction of the elevator, where she then pressed the button
to the eighth floor. She suddenly thought of what Felicia said about how Elliot had not been to Bourgeois
this week. But he is here now, she mused. Could it be true that he is here because of me?
She had never believed that she had the ability to make Elliot give up the luxurious and spacious office
of Presgrave Groupâs headquarters, and transfer to a place like Bourgeois.
But it was for a fact that Elliot was here today.
As she passed by Lilyâs office, she noticed that the assistant was not in her seat. She then walked
directly to Elliotâs office, and when she saw the door that was hidden from plain sight, she was about to
knock on it when she heard a coquettish laughter from behind the door. âI will definitely work hard and
live up to your expectations, Elliot.â
âYou donât have to thank me,â Elliot said fondly in his deep voice. âYou can always ask for my help with
work in the future.â
âMhm! I know. I will try my best not to bother you. I am already very happy to be your subordinate.â The
female voice was pleasant to listen to. For her to have such a sweet and melodious voice, she probably
was a beauty as well.
Is this the airborne designer that Felicia was talking about? She seems like she knows Elliot personally.
Anastasiaâs hand froze mid-air as multiple thoughts began to swim through her mind.
The woman suddenly sounded bashful as she spoke expectantly. âAre you free tonight, Elliot? I want to
treat you to a meal.â
Anastasia had suspected that it might be one of the Presgravesâ relativeâs children, but when she heard
her flirtatious tone, it was obvious that they were not related by blood. The woman probably fancied the
man, too.
Elliot was a dreamboat, after all.
He neither rejected nor agreed. âTonight? I will check if I have the time.â
âIt is so amazing how you alone manage such a big company.â The womanâs voice was full of admiration.
Hearing that, Elliot let out a low laugh and replied, âIt can be tiring sometimes.â
âWhich is why I want to buy you something good for dinner tonight and help you relax. Aww come on,
just say yes!â The woman inside the office was half-seducing and half-pleading. Her soft voice seemed
useful at making men listen to her.
âMiss Tillman, what are you doing?â Lily suddenly asked in an emotionless voice.
Anastasia was completely surprised by Lilyâs sudden appearance. She didnât even notice that her upper
body was already leaning over. In that instant, she lost her balance, and she abruptly slammed open the
office door in front of her as she stumbled into Elliotâs office.
She panickedly raised her head, only to see Elliot sitting at the desk, and there was a young woman in a
suit leaning over on his desk. She had her chin plopped in her palms as she put on a cute and kittenish
appearance.
Not brave enough to look at the manâs face, Anastasia bowed her head and stammered as she
apologized. âSoâsorry to bother you. I didnât mean to interrupt. Please, continue with what you were
doingâ¦â
