In response, Anastasia repeated the incident regarding Mrs. Garner to Francis, who could not believe his ears that Erica was actually heartless enough to commit attempted murder. “She has the exact same personality as her mother. How can they be so heartless? I can’t believe that she killed Mrs. Garner in order to conceal the truth about her

identity.”

“Dad, I understand that she grew up under your care and you’re attached to her, but could you leave this matter in my hands? Don’t interfere in this.” She did not wish for such a dilemma upon her father.

He then nodded in agreement. “Sure, I

won’t interfere in this. Just do what’s best for everyone.”

“Dad, I need you to cooperate in the investigation of Naomi’s case. You would need to be interviewed by the police regarding the matter of how she forced medications on you before you passed out.”

Anastasia reminded her father as she did not want any of his feelings and kinship toward Naomi to jeopardize the matter. She had already made up her mind to convince her father to file for divorce.

“You two should get a divorce once the investigation has been completed. I don’t want such a dangerous person staying by your side,” she suggested calmly.

The guilt Francis felt toward Anastasia intensified at that point. Right now, he was relieved that she was able to handle everything on her own. As such, he decided not to bother about the matter with Naomi and Erica. He would just leave everything in Anastasia’s hands.

“Okay!’ Francis nodded. Since the situation had arrived to such a stage, there would be no point in him drafting a will anymore because there would be only one person left to inherit his fortune.

At 5.00PM, Anastasia suddenly received a phone call from Elliot. He mentioned that he was sending a car over to pick her up as today was the day he received his latest yacht, hence he wanted to bring her and Jared out to sea to have dinner.

Although she was busy with such complications, she convinced herself to relax and focus on accompanying Elliot and Jared for dinner.

“Miss Tillman, before we leave for the port, President Presgrave asked that pay a visit to the gown boutique and

change into a gown,” the bodyguard mentioned.

In response, Anastasia smiled and replied “Sure.” He’s arranged everything perfectly.

She changed into a purple gown at the boutique and looked stunning with a strong resemblance to a dark violet flower.

“Miss Tillman, I rarely see anyone being able to own this color as much as you d It looks perfect on you!” the boss of the boutique praised candidly.

“Thank you for your kind words,” Anastasia replied politely and departed.

Along the way, she enjoyed watching the lights lit up one by one, as if it was commanded by the dusk, as the night approached. She admired the scenic views along the way and her heart was never more at peace than this moment; it no longer felt heavy and she was full of anticipation to see the man waiting for her.

At the port, the sky had just darkened and the illuminated yacht stood out even more in the sea. It was very luxurious yet stylish.

The black car headed in the direction of the yacht and as Anastasia alighted from the car, her long hair was blowing in the wind. Her figure was mesmerizing under the shadows as she radiated confidence.

“Mommy!” She had just entered the cabin

when she heard her son’s voice ring out happily,

He was also dressed exceptionally handsome tonight with a fitted tuxedo while radiating the aura of a rich little young man. Furthermore, Anastasia could tell that her son’s outfit was tailor made for him.

At the same time, she was quite taken aback because her son actually resembled Elliot a lot after the get-up. Is this all a destined fate?

“Mommy, you look so beautiful today!” Jared tilted his head slightly as he realized that his mommy was gorgeous.

“Is that true?” Anastasia enjoyed listening to her son’s praises.

“Of course! My mommy’s beautiful and that’s why I’m such an adorable and handsome child!” Jared chuckled gleefully.

She chortled after hearing his double entendre compliment. “I think you’re taking this chance to praise yourself more than for me!”

At this moment, Elliot strode out from.

behind a door looking tall and mesmerizing. Although it was early spring, he was merely dressed in a white shirt paired with a dark-colored vest as he could withstand the cold. The tapered pants that he wore accentuated his long legs perfectly and the tautness of his legs was extremely charming.

The sight of him made Anastasia feel flushed. Wow, not many people can resist his body.

As soon as she realized that they were about to be engaged soon, she suddenly felt worried that she might not be able to withstand his passionate feelings.

Elliot focused his dark eyes on her and studied her intently with a smile on his face. She fulfilled all his criterias for a beautiful woman. Her imperfections naturally become perfections to him and ever since he fell in love with her, she became flawless.

Despite her apathy in getting closer to him-or at times, even avoiding him, these traits had become the reasons why he felt attracted to her.

“Purple suits you well,” Elliot praised her.

“Really?”

“The only issue with the dress is the low neckline, but there aren’t that many people around tonight, so I’ll keep my jealousy to myself then,” he spoke up generously, as if she needed his permission on what to wear.

At that moment, Anastasia was speechless. I’ve worn dresses that are much more revealing than this! If this was something that he intended to patrol her on, then he would have his hands full as she was not conservative when it came to her dressing.

“Mr. Presgrave, I’ll head upstairs to have a game. Stay here and keep my mommy company. You guys can have some romantic time together.” After Jared said that, he ran up the stairs on the other side since he was already familiar with the yacht.

A worried Anastasia glanced at him as Elliot comforted in a low voice, “Don’t you worry. There are bodyguards

upstairs, so they will keep him safe.”

It was then that she finally relaxed and enjoyed the feeling of being out at sea. The yacht sailed along the sea steadily and they remained close to the shores so that they could see the buildings all beautifully lit up under the night skies.

Anastasia’s frustrations from the past few days were finally released and she felt as if she was located in another realm, embracing the peaceful feeling.

A fine meal was also something worth being happy about and Elliot had arranged for a highly-ranked top chef to prepare dinner for them. The tender and juicy steak was paired perfectly with some fine wine. Jared, on the other hand, had an exceptionally great meal course too; Anastasia had always prided herself on being a great cook and satisfying his meals every day.

By the looks of things now, he seemed to have grown much taller and well-built from his stay at Presgrave Residence for the past month. Perhaps, he was even much healthier than when he was with her.

She was full of gratitude toward Harriet for taking care of Jared so well. At the same time, she also realized that Jared was a huge source of happiness for everyone at Presgrave Residence.

It was 11.00PM when they finally arrived back at the mansion with Jared sound asleep in Elliot’s arms. Anastasia trailed along behind and stared at Elliot’s broad and strong back. At that moment, there was a sense of security that welled up within her and she felt as if she could safely depend on him for the rest of her life.

They placed Jared on the bed and Anastasia waited outside the corridor for Elliot to come out.

Elliot stepped out of the door silently. before he was led to Anastasia to the master bedroom. As soon as they entered the doors, he instantly took her into his. arms.

“There were too many people present. tonight. Finally, I can do what I wanted to do but was too shy earlier to do so,” he mentioned straightforwardly.

Before she could react, he had already. raised her chin and cupped her tiny face to kiss her passionately.

Anastasia could feel the dominance and tenderness that he expressed. Finally, he was satiated and released her as she snuggled into his arms shyly and caught her breath.

I’ll start making preparations for our engagement party, Elliot spoke softly in her ears in a low voice.

“Okay, sure.” She agreed as she didn’t want to make him wait any longer either.

The next morning, Francis, who hadn’t appeared in public for quite some time, turned up at his company. The first thing he wanted to deal with was to sue his lawyer for amending his will without seeking consent from the client.

Colin definitely did not expect Francis to be able to regain consciousness and that there would be proof that he had received a bribe of a million in his bank account. Thus, there was concrete evidence of his crime.

As for Patrick Newman, he had been in a residential area before he was taken into custody that morning. He trembled hard out of fear as he never expected that he would have to pay such a huge price at this age for a daughter he hadn’t even met for the past twenty years.

Inside the police station, Erica’s face was as pale as a sheet, and her eyes were lifeless. In just one day, she had lost her arrogance, and all that was left in her was fear for her future and regret for her actions.
