Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel
As Patrick stood in front of his daughter, he sympathized with her and longed to hear her call him ‘dad’..
“Sure. I’ll get rid of her for you,” he said through gritted teeth.
Seeing how he agreed to do it for her, she smiled as she had finally found a scapegoat and replied, “You’re the best dad I could ask for.” Upon hearing her call him ‘dad’, he was elated.
Based on the authority that Erica had, she could command the security guards of Tillman Constructions. She immediately made a call to the surveillance room and informed them that if a woman named Wanda Garner asked to see Anastasia, they would have to inform her immediately. Then, she would get them to bring her to a location within the vicinity.
The security guard agreed to her request,
knowing that she was Francis’ second daughter.
In order to stop Wanda from meeting Anastasia, Erica immediately drove over to Tillman Constructions to scout for a suitable location to execute her plan. Finally, she found an abandoned warehouse next to the company.
Since it was Patrick’s first ever up-close encounter with his daughter, he couldn’t hide his excitement seeing how capable Erica was and that she would inherit Tillman Constructions.
He knew that Francis had two daughters but had no sons, so he was confident that each daughter would inherit half of his inheritance.
On the other hand, Wanda planned to look for Anastasia early tomorrow morning after getting some rest. Unknown to her, Erica had set up a trap for her.
Meanwhile, in the Presgrave Hospital, Old Madam Presgrave was happy that Francis had regained consciousness and brought Jared over to visit his grandfather. Seeing that Francis was awake, Jared happily accompanied him
and refused to leave his side. However, after Francis got to know that Anastasia had been separated from Jared all this time while he was in a coma, he felt bad, so he asked her to go home to rest and not worry about him anymore.
At 9.00PM, Elliot brought Anastasia and Jared back to the mansion. It was almost midnight after they had taken a shower. Jared had sleeping on time, so he had gone to bed at 10.30PM.
However, both of the adults weren’t tired just yet. After her father had regained consciousness, her stress level went down, and she felt more relaxed. When she walked to the main hall, she saw Elliot sitting cross-legged on the couch while looking at the laptop that was placed on his lap. It seemed like he was glowing as the lights were cast on him.
She sauntered toward him in her pink pajamas and sat next to him, with her freshly washed hair draping down her shoulder. She propped her chin up and stared at the screen. It was a long email in Chinese with lots of corporate jargon, which made her head spin.
Elliot shifted his attention from the screen to her. From his angle, she looked feminine, with glowing skin, and her red lips were playfully pouted. Suddenly, he closed the laptop and set it aside.
“But you’re not done typing!” Anastasia blinked her eyes as she thought that she might have interrupted his work.
“Compared to work, I’m more interested in you.” Right after, he pulled her into his arms.
Her heart fluttered as she leaned in his
chest while enjoying it.
“When my new yacht arrives tomorrow night, I’ll bring you and Jared out to sea.” He ran his fingers through her long silky hair.
“Sure!” She wanted to go out and get some fresh air too.
“Let’s get engaged after your dad’s condition gets better.” This matter had been on Elliot’s mind.
“Sure.” Anastasia agreed since they were
supposed to get engaged earlier on.
“You smell nice.” He picked up a strand of her hair and sniffed lightly, but his eyes were locked on her.
The atmosphere instantly became romantic and sensuous.
“I’m… having my period,” she said shyly.
Upon hearing that, he was speechless since his timing was bad. “Do you plan to be mine if you’re not having your period?” He giggled, trying to get himself out of the awkward situation.
“I’ll eventually be yours.” She smirked.
“I’ll hold you to that. Which day are you on?” Elliot began marking time like a hunter who had set the traps, sitting out, waiting for his game to fall into it.
At that, Anastasia hurriedly answered, “The first day…”
She had to lie no matter what.
“First day, huh,” drawled Elliot. “Six days to go then.”
She laughed up her sleeve as she buried herself in his arms, and Elliot lowered his head to kiss her cheek tyrannically yet dotingly.
“Alright, cut it out. Don’t stay up too late.” She left his arms, allowing him to return to his work, and as she left, he gave her a cheeky smack out of the blue, making her blush. Excuse me!
However, Elliot grinned, seemingly
enjoying her reaction while she fled upstairs.
When morning came, Wanda hailed a cab to Tillman Constructions after having her breakfast at home, for she had assumed Anastasia would come bright and early.
“Sorry, I was wondering whether Miss Anastasia Tillman has arrived for work?” she asked after arriving at the guardhouse.
“And you are?”
“I’m looking for her.”
“Register, please.”
“I’m Wanda Garner.” Wanda gave her name.
The guard happened to be Erica’s man and he grabbed his phone, entered the guardhouse, and called Erica after learning who he was speaking to. “Miss Erica, Wanda Garner has arrived.” “Do as I’ve told you and bring her to me,” she ordered.
“Yes, ma’am. I’ll bring her right away.”
With that, he went out and said to Wanda, who had beers waiting outside. “You’re looking for Miss Anastasia Tillman, you said? Follow me. I’ll take you there.”
Wanda was already so eager to meet up with Anastasia that she boarded the golf cart without hesitation, and it wasn’t until the guard had driven more than a mile that she began panicking. ‘Sir, where are you taking me?
“Miss Tillman’s up ahead. We’re almost there. In the security guard’s defense, he didn’t know he was banding a human life to Erica on a silver platter since he believed that Erica just wanted to see her.
“Is Miss Anastasia’s office in this area?” a curious Wanda asked..
The guard naturally wouldn’t ask why Erica wanted to see this woman. His job was only to deliver, and he wouldn’t want to offend Erica unless he wanted to lose his job.
Erica and Patrick had long arrived and
they watched the guard escort Wanda to
their building from the second-floor
window. “Miss Tillman’s inside. Go on in!” said the guard. Wanda was bewildered that Anastasia’s
office was located in such a place, for it
looked obviously abandoned.
After she entered the building, the door suddenly shut behind her, and she turned around in fright only to see a man Erica’s birth father!
At last, she realized she had fallen into a trap. I’ve been brought to Erica!
