Chapter 482
Night of Destiny
Suddenly, Anastasia had the feeling that
she was under Elliotâs control and could no longer escape. âOkay. But weâll still have to wait until your leg
gets better,â she said.
âIâll let someone set up the venue first, and we will get engaged in two weeks. During this period, you can
choose whatever clothes and jewelry you like.â Elliot knew that women liked to arrange these things.
âSure.â Anastasia hummed in agreement. Elliot is a good choice. I donât think there is any need to be
fussy anymore.
As Dad said, it is already a blessing for me to be able to marry although I have a child. If itâs a good man,
I should just go ahead and get married.
Elliot finally exhaled a sigh of relief after seeing how quickly she accepted his proposal, and he felt the
joy of finally having caught his prey. Therefore, he reckoned that the injury to his leg was worth it in
exchange for al wife.
When Rey came in to report a work matter, Anastasia left the room and headed to Jaredâs room. âWhen
will Mr. Presgraveâs leg get better, Mommy?â Jared ran to her and asked when she entered the room.
âThe doctor said it will heal in ten days. Donât worry,â she consoled.
Suddenly, Jared wrapped his arms around Anastasiaâs neck. âMommy, can Mr. Presgrave be my
Daddy?â he asked pleadingly in her ear.
Anastasia felt pity for Jared as she listened to his plea, but she also felt like grinning. âWhy?â she
inquired.
âI really like him, Mommy, I feel like he is my Daddy, the child exclaimed.
Anastasiaâs heart sank when she heard that. But Elliot can never be Jaredâs biological father.
âAright. Your mommy has decided to marry him. We will live together in the future, and he will be your
Daddy, okay?â she promised him.
âReally? Yay! I have a father now!â Jared
jumped up and down happily
Anastasiaâs fearful emotions from last
night slowly eased away and her mood
lifted as she looked at her childâs cheerful
appearance.
Meanwhile, in Elliotâs master bedroom. Rey was reporting on the handling of Aliona and her accomplice.
President Presgrave, Alionaâs real name is Aliona Presgrave, and she was adopted by Riley Presgrave
when she was young. Riley controlled Lucasâ son abroad, and thatâs why Lucas has been helping him to
hide Alionaâs identity, allowing her to approach you
As for Alionaâs purpose for approaching him. Elliot was well aware that she wanted his heir to become
Rileyâs puppet to control the Presgrave Group in the future
âLet the lawyers do their jobs properly. I
want these people to pay a heavy price.â
He clenched his fists, and his joints gave a
crack.
âYes. They have collected all the information and will never let them escape any charge. Rey responded.
âGet me a wedding planner tomorrow. Iâm going to arrange an engagement dinner.â Elliot ordered in a
low voice.
Reyâs expression lit up instantly. âCongratulations, President Presgrave, on Miss Tillmanâs and your
engagement!â
President Presgrave has been pursuing Miss Tillman for more than half a year. and it is finally paying off.
And to think I used to get so anxious about their relationship!
âRey, if you meet the right person, tell me Donât delay your marriage because of work.â Elliot felt the
happiness of having a lover, and he wanted to arrange a good marriage for Rey as well.
Rey immediately thanked the boss for his consideration, but he shook his head and
said, âThank you for caring about my marriage. President Presgrave. But I donât have a partner yet.â
âAfter the first half of the year, I will give
you a long vacation in the second half.â
Elliot said.
âThank you, President Presgrave. Rey
was grateful to have met such a good
boss.
In the evening, Jared accompanied Elliot,
and they played with the Rubikâs cube.
Finally, Elliot had time to spend with
Jared and he was very patient.
The main reason Anastasia would fall in love with Elliot was that she saw his love and concern for Jared.
Only a man who
loved her son could unlock her heart.
When she thought about getting engaged to Elliot after Christmas, she still felt a little nervous. I should
talk to Dad in the next two days.
In the evening, Jared went to bed early. Anastasia had been staying up late, so she wanted to sleep
immediately after putting her son to bed.
