Chapter 303
Aliona was slightly caught off guard when Anastasia had denied it without even needing to give it a second thought and she couldn’t help but wonder, Could it be that she really does not like Elliot? Does this mean she won’t get in my way?
“I am sorry that I was being presumptuous,” Aliona hurriedly apologized.
“It is fine.” Anastasia smiled with pursed lips as she picked up her teacup. “I will be heading back to the office then.”
Aliona’s gaze seemed to darken as soon as Anastasia left the pantry. She wondered whether the reason Anastasia denied having a relationship with Elliot was because she was being careful or if she really didn’t like the man.
Anyhow, no one could disrupt her plan. She admitted that Anastasia was a gorgeous woman, but Aliona was confident that she would be able to win over Elliot.
She was going to look her best during dinner tonight with Lucas and Elliot.
Anastasia had just returned to the office when the landline began to ring again.
Picking up the call, she spoke into the phone. “Hello?”

“Come up for a bit,” Elliot’s voice came through the other end of the call.
“It is almost time for me to get off from work.”
“It is about work.”
And of course, Anastasia wouldn’t possibly believe him, “Let’s talk tomorrow.”
“Anastasia Tillman, can you please show your boss a little respect?” he grumpily huffed in reply.
However, she really didn’t want to see him, so she insisted, “President Presgrave, just say what you want on the phone.”
He stubbornly insisted, “We will talk in my office.”
Anastasia already had a feeling that he wasn’t going to talk about work, so naturally, she wouldn’t fall into his trap.
“Forget it then.” She hung up the call after throwing that out.
The look on the big boss’ face in the president’s office immediately fell when the call was dropped. His tall and lean figure swiftly stood up before he started taking big strides out of the office.
Anastasia was editing a few old drafts in her office when she clumsily dropped the documents in her hands. Then, she sucked a deep breath before she squatted down.
At this moment, she heard the sound of someone opening the office door. Thinking that it was Grace, she spoke from under the table. “Grace, help me to pick up these documents.”
The person who had just come in didn’t say anything in return and only reached down to help Anastasia with her request. It was only when Anastasia crawled out from under the desk that she had the surprise of her life.
Instead of Grace, it was Elliot standing there with some documents in his hands. There was a sour expression on his face as he tossed the papers on her desk. “Do you think this kind of sloppy work is acceptable?”|
Anastasia knew that she probably deserved the scolding because she hadn’t been in her best condition during work today. Like a dead mouse that felt no cold, she fearlessly challenged him, “Go ahead and cut my salary then!”
“You want a deduction on your meager salary? Do you plan on feeding Jared air?” He let out an annoyed puff.
