“Mhm. It is.” He briefly nodded in reply.

She picked up her tea cup and asked with a smile, “Why are we moving? The Bourgeois building may be a little short, but everything else has been perfect.”

“Did you know that I go to and fro from Bourgeois and Presgrave Corporation everyday just to see you?” Elliot rested his hands in front of his collar with his fingers intertwined as his elbows rested on the table. His deep gaze was extremely enchanting. “It has been tiring, yes, but I loved every moment of it.”

Anastasia’s breath seemed to stop for a second there. Does he really come to Bourgeois everyday just to see me?

“But I have realized recently that the security measures in Bourgeois are quite poor. It doesn’t help me with my work, and this is why I decided to relocate the company. By moving, we can finally work in the same building. We can also see each other every day, get to and from work together, have coffee together… It will be easier for us to do anything we want to.”

Elliot said that the main reason for relocating the atelier was to make it easier for him to see her.

Anastasia’s face reddened under his gaze. To distract herself, she tapped her finger on the teacup that she was holding. “What’s so special about seeing me?” she asked.

Why does Elliot want to see me for no reason?

“Apart from work, you are the most important thing to me every day since I have met you,” Elliot responded as he glanced into her eyes. Although he was not good at loving someone, the way he communicated his love was direct and didn’t beat around the bush.

But his love was too overwhelming, which caused her a lot of pressure and trouble.

“I’m not worth it.” Anastasia stroked her long hair as she said. Under the afternoon sunlight, her heated cheeks exuded a charming aura and was seemingly attractive.

He supported his forehead with his palm and admired her as if he were admiring a masterpiece—every scowl and smile of hers, every microexpression of hers, he was taking into his eyes and remembering in his heart.

How could such a woman exist in this world and make me madly fall in love? In the face of loving her, my pride and dignity have become insignificant.

Now that she was under his gaze, Anastasia was a little flustered and covered her face in embarrassment before she begged, “Please don’t look at me like this. I can’t take it.”

Elliot burst out laughing as he teased, “You can’t take it? What if I spend the rest of my life staring at you?”

“Who would want to be stared at by you for the rest of their life?” Anastasia retorted, but her eyes were filled with shyness.

“If you don’t want me to look at you, then who do you want to be stared at?” he jealously asked and added, “By Alex Hunter?”

Anastasia had no idea where this man’s jealousy came from. She had nothing to do with Alex, so how could Elliot feel jealous all the time?

“I don’t have anything to do with Mr. Hunter. We’re just friends,” she explained inexplicably.

“I don’t care. In short, I don’t want you to get too close to him,” Elliot commanded as he squinted his upturned eyes.

Only men understood the mentality of their peers. Even if Anastasia hadn’t noticed it lately, he could see through Alex’s dirty thoughts about her at a glance.

Anastasia blinked her eyes a few times after she heard him. She could only say that this man was too domineering.

When the food arrived, Elliot had been passionately serving the food to her to make up for what angered her for the past two days. It was also because she had appeared to have lost some weight.

If another man served her food, she would definitely reject it. Why didn’t I feel that way when Elliot served me the food? she wondered.

After Anastasia returned to the office, she went to the bathroom and overheard the staff discussing the company’s relocation while she was sitting inside the toilet cubicle.

“Oh my goodness! Great, we can now go to work in the Presgrave Corporation where all the high-paid financial tycoons are! That is where the elite gathers,” said one of the staff.

Right then, Elliot’s words appeared in her mind. “I made this decision just to see you conveniently.”

If this was any other woman who learned that Elliot went to such lengths to see her, I guess she would be madly in love with him.

Meanwhile, in Hogland, Hayley was sitting in a high-end hospital’s office with a translator standing beside her.

In front of Hayley were the successful cases of plastic surgery in the hospital as well as the plastic surgical projects that they were best at. The doctor in charge asked her to pick one that she desired.

Hayley glanced at these beautiful faces and all of them looked like masterpieces created by God. However, she shook her head and took a photo from her bag, which she handed to the doctor. “I want this face,” she declared.

The doctor reached out and took the photo. The woman in the photo had perfect bones and she was a natural beauty. Her face was indeed more perfect than any cosmetic product.

“It doesn’t need to be identical; even a fifty percent match will do, but I would like to have her eyes,” Hayley demanded.

The translator on the side promptly translated her words. The doctor examined the woman’s face before he turned to Hayley and paused for a while before he continued, “The operation is quite risky. We need to work on several aspects of your face. Are you sure you want to do it?”

“I will do it. No matter how much it will cost.” Hayley’s eyes flashed with determination. For the sake of beauty; for Elliot; and for the status of Mrs. Presgrave. I would do everything!

Looking at her determination, the doctor nodded and agreed.

Meanwhile, back in the country, Aliona found an excuse to knock on Elliot’s office door. She planned on inviting him to dinner tonight since the scandal between them had unfortunately been proven to be inaccurate. Everyone could tell that Elliot only cared about Anastasia at the welcome party.

Therefore, early in the morning, the staff from the Department of Design had spread the news around the company. As a result, everyone stopped discussing the scandals.

“Come in.” Elliot’s voice sounded from the office.

Aliona pushed open the door and walked over with a bright smile. “Are you busy, Elliot?” she inquired.

“Do you need anything?” he asked as he closed the laptop.

“Are you free to have dinner together tonight? I want to ask you something.” She came up with a reason.

“I am not available for dinner. If you have any questions, please ask them now.” He declined her request politely.

“Do you have anything important to do tonight, Elliot?” Aliona looked a little aggrieved.

Of course Elliot had important things to do tonight. He’d gone a few days without seeing Jared, so he would accompany Anastasia later today to pick Jared up from school and have dinner at Anastasia’s house.

“Yes. I have some important things to do.” Elliot nodded.

Aliona could tell that it must have been related to Anastasia. After all, no one could influence Anastasia’s weight in Elliot’s heart.

“Forget it. It’s alright.” Aliona was deliberately acting depressed and trying to attract his attention.

“If it’s about work, you can ask Director Evans. She will take care of you,” Elliot comforted her and glanced at his watch. “Aliona, you may leave now,” he added.
