Chapter 394
Night of Destiny
Chapter 394 She Couldnât Falsely Accuse the Innocent
After Anastasia finally found her first draft, she put it on her desk and said, âThis is my first draft, but it
canât be used as evidence to prove I didnât plagiarize.â
The time and date the company assessed were based on when the piece was keyed into the system.
Clearly, Savill had the upper hand in this.
âI believe you.â Elliot looked at her with absolute trust.
Anastasia choked at that, and she smiled wryly. âDo you really have that much faith in me?â
âWho am I suppose to believe when I donât even believe in my woman?â Elliotâs gaze was filled with
resolution.
He got her a little stump, and she evaded his gaze. Nonetheless, his words had given her a confidence
boost.
âThanks. Now, I want to get to the bottom of this and see who leaked my sketch to Savill.â With that, she
looked down at her sketch.
This was one of her favorite sketches, but now, Savill claimed it as their own and even slandered her for
it. How exasperating it was!
âFind that person, and Iâll teach them a lesson for you.â Elliotâs face turned grim. That person probably
had a death wish since they dared to touch his beloved woman.
Right as Anastasia looked up, he continued, âAlso, Savill will have to pay a heavy price for slandering
you.â
Anastasia was rendered at a loss for words.
She had a feeling Savill would be facing their doom.
âAlright, tough guy. Letâs investigate first!â Anastasia decided to check the officeâs surveillance footage
before they did anything further.
The security didnât dare snub Anastasiaâs request, sending the footage of said time to her laptop. With
that, Elliot and Felicia kept her company as they looked through it together.
Meanwhile, Alice couldnât help but begin to panic in her office. She hadnât expected Elliot to actually step
in, and it got her seriously tensed.
Elliot was all-powerful, and he had very strong influences. What was more, he had a bunch of formidable
lawyers. Even if Anastasia was sued, his lawyers would be able to win the case.
Since it had come to this, Anastasia definitely wouldnât put up with it. Right then, she sat in front of her
laptop while she looked through the footage. She swore that she would find the culprit.
Elliotâs heart ached as he sat next to her, watching her stare into the screen with her brows locked into a
deep furrow, non-blinking. âDo you have any enemies in the office? Alternatively, is there anyone who
wants to harm you?â
Two people immediately came to her mindâAlice and Aliona. These two were openly hostile toward her.
However, she couldnât rule out the possibility of someone using her sketch to make money, or that Savill
had planted a spy in Bourgeois.
âHold on. Weâll talk after Iâm done watching the footage.â Anastasia watched the surveillance footage
frame by frame, fast-forwarding and rewinding from time to time.
âWhy donât you get back to work, Director Evans? Iâll keep her company.â Elliot pulled a chair over and
sat next to Anastasia. He decidedly ignored the important work in Presgrave Group, choosing to solve
the incident with her instead.
âYou should go back to work too! I can handle this myself.â Anastasia didnât want to take up his time
either.
âIâll watch with you.â Elliot wasnât going anywhere. After all, nothing was more important than clearing her
name now.
Anastasiaâs head spun from watching an hour of footage. Seeing that it was about time to pick Jared up,
she turned to Elliot. âI might have to stay and watch the footage tonight. Can you please ask Nigel to pick
Jared up and babysit him for the night?â
âAlright, Iâll call him.â With that, Elliot dialed Nigelâs number.
Nigel was their number one nanny, and more than that, he was among the only few Anastasia trusted.
After hanging up, Elliot stayed by Anastasiaâs side with peace of mind, watching the surveillance footage
with her. Meanwhile, Anastasia had been recording the time and person who came in and out of her
office.
She didnât relax for a moment since she didnât want to falsely accuse the innocent, nor would she spare
the culprit.
As Savill wanted an answer by the following afternoon, she had to look through all the footage and find
the culprit by that night.
Now that Nigel was babysitting Jared, she could focus on work. Sometime later, Grace brought her a
little pick-me-up. After taking a few sips of the coffee, Anastasia went back to staring at her laptop
screen.
