Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

“Watch out, Anastasia!” Oliver shouted out because Anastasia’s car was about to crash into another car.

Therefore, Anastasia applied an emergency brake, realizing that she must not let herself get distracted when driving.

“Who’s the man in your car?” The caller questioned Anastasia, his voice echoing in the car.

“I’m driving now, President Presgrave, so it’s not really a good time for me to talk now. Bye.” Anastasia eventually lost her patience and told the man that she was about to hang up the call.

In the meantime, Oliver was puzzled by what was going on, as he couldn’t help but wonder about the relationship between Anastasia and her boss. Why is her boss so angry after he heard my voice?

“Anastasia, if you ever dare to…” Before Elliot could finish his sentence, Anastasia went ahead and hung up on the former, only to receive another call from the man. Just when Oliver was nervously wondering why her boss was calling again, she heard Anastasia’s reply that was about to surprise him. “Don’t bother picking it up. Just let it ring.”

Oliver was speechlessly stunned upon hearing Anastasia’s words but was impressed by her courage to let her boss’ call go unanswered. His respect for her grew greater when she subsequently switched her phone to silent mode.

In the meantime, Elliot was seen with a darkened gaze in the basement car park. I was only a few minutes late, and that lady is now gone with another man in her car. Who’s that man, by the way? Why is he calling her Anastasia instead of Miss Tillman like she is his… What’s worse is that she had the guts to hang up my call. Did I interrupt her affair with another man? At the thought of that, Elliot clenched his fists, feeling jealous of the man who was with Anastasia as it seemed to him that Oliver was having a good time with the woman he loved, just like he did earlier that afternoon.

Overwhelmed by his jealousy, he began to feel restless and uneasy.

Imagining the man who was with Anastasia enjoying the sight of her sweet smile when she was driving, Elliot called his assistant, Rey, and asked him to collect him. “Come pick me up.”

Meanwhile, Rey quickly got to his car and drove from Presgrave Group. Just when he parked his car and was about to get out of the vehicle to open the door for his boss, Elliot had already gotten in, radiating an aura of rage and anger. I wonder who’s gotten on my boss’s nerves. Upon running through a list of faces in his mind, he couldn’t think of anyone else besides Anastasia.

“Start driving now. We’re heading to the area where Anastasia lives.” The man’s voice was heard coming from the backseat, as expected.

In the meantime, Anastasia, who pulled up outside her son’s kindergarten, sneezed as she felt a cold chill running down her spine. Because of that, she couldn’t help but wonder if someone was speaking ill of her behind her back. While Oliver waited for Anastasia to return with her son, the kid was excited at the sight of his mother’s new car. Soon, they entered the car, but in order to accompany the boy, Oliver decided to sit in the backseat with him. “Let’s go. It’s dinnertime.” Concerned about her son’s safety, Anastasia reckoned she should buy a harnessed seat for him as soon as she could.

At the same time, the boy was able to hit it off with Oliver, having a liking for him because he appeared to treat his mother well.

Not long after that, Anastasia went to a restaurant near the area where they lived with Oliver and her son. Upon settling down around the dining table, Oliver soon found himself enchanted when he laid eyes on the young and beautiful mother. After all, he reckoned no man could have resisted the motherly charm and love that Anastasia was giving off when she looked at her son. In that instant, Oliver slowly lost the courage to look at Anastasia’s smile because he was afraid that she would see through his feelings for her.

When Anastasia footed the bill at the cashier, she reached for her phone and was shocked to see 28 missed calls on her phone. The moment she viewed them, she saw the same name for each one of them—Elliot.

What’s wrong with this man? Is he out of his mind or something? Why did he call so many times? Wait a second. Could there be anything urgent? But if there was really something urgent, his bodyguards would have protected him, so I can’t see how his safety could have been threatened.

After paying the bill, Anastasia returned to her seat shortly before she exited the restaurant. Then, Anastasia drove them back to the basement car park in their residential area. Upon arrival, they were greeted by the sight of a luxurious black car that seemed to be waiting there for no one knew how long.

On the other hand, the man in the car was able to recognize the familiar BMW to be Anastasia’s even before he saw the license registration number. “Get in her way.”

Meanwhile, Anastasia was about to drive her car into the car park just when another black car suddenly appeared right in front of her and forced her to brake. She then stared at the car in surprise, wondering if the driver knew any manners. What’s this fella doing here? Does he know that his car is now at the car park’s entrance? Nonetheless, at that moment, the tall silhouette exited the car like the intimidating and fearsome demon himself from hell. As soon as Anastasia saw the man, she was puzzled and surprised. Elliot? What’s he doing in my residential area?

“Mr. Presgrave doesn’t seem to be happy.” The child sitting in the backseat could tell from the man’s expression.

At that moment, Anastasia was reminded of the 28 missed calls she saw earlier, thinking Elliot must have been mad because of that as her heart pounded rapidly. Furthermore, the man’s hot temper only served to make her fear the worst even more. Therefore, she gulped in fear before she revealed her adorable side and leaned closer to Elliot, sticking her head out to greet the man. “What a small world, President Presgrave.”

Then, Elliot slowly leaned closer in an intimidating manner just as his silent facial features became clearer and clearer, making him look like an emotionless statue. On the other hand, Anastasia, who sensed the man’s intimidating aura, believed that someone like him would overshadow every other man in the same domain. Thus, she couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed by her panic because she had no idea what the man would do to her.

Is he going to be mad and shout at me? Or is he going to lay me off directly?

Soon, it turned out that neither of what Anastasia was expecting happened as the man propped his body with his arms on his car frame and bent over slightly. The next second, he spoke with a magnetic voice, “I’ve been waiting for you at your doorstep. Hurry up and get inside.”

Before Anastasia could react, Elliot went to the backseat and greeted Jared with a gentle smile. “Hello, Jared.”

“Mr. Presgrave, you’re not mad, are you?” the child asked.

“Of course, I’m not.” Elliot smiled as he worked past his anger about the 28 missed calls that Anastasia didn’t pick up earlier. However, when he shifted his gaze to Oliver, his eyes were like a sharp blade, warning him not to get any closer to the lady.

Needless to say, Oliver understood the man’s warning gesture, knowing that Elliot was trying to assert his dominance over Anastasia.

After the car in front of Anastasia made its way, Anastasia turned her attention to Elliot and said, “I’ll park my car in the basement first.”

Then, she went ahead to park her car in a serious manner after locating a nice parking lot. In the meantime, Oliver caught a glimpse of the side view of Jared’s face, feeling shocked by what he saw when he was trying to remind the kid to bring his belongings out of the car with him. This kid looks just like the man we just met. Is he the father of this boy? So, does that mean Anastasia bore a child for her boss?

Although Oliver was not someone who was afraid of trouble, he was a man with a sense of shame within him. At the same time, he pitied himself for having to give up the idea of wooing Anastasia before he even had the chance to do anything. “Anastasia, I’ll deliver your computer to you in a while.”

“Sure, I’m going to be working overtime later anyway.” Anastasia expressed her gratitude, whereupon she entered the elevator with her son and made their way to the 15th floor. As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, Anastasia was greeted by the sight of a man leaning against the wall with a gloomy look on his face.

“Have you eaten, Mr. Presgrave?” Jared asked the man in a concerned manner.

“No, I haven’t.” Elliot shook his head in exhaustion.

The child told his mother, “Mom, Mr. Presgrave hasn’t eaten yet!”

“Why didn’t you eat dinner?” Anastasia looked at the man in surprise after hearing her son’s words.

“I’m not hungry.” The man grunted unhappily.

When she heard Elliot’s reply, Anastasia couldn’t help but frown at his unconcerned attitude about his own health, asking herself deep down whether he wasn’t afraid that his health would worsen because of that. After opening the door, she entered the house with her son as the man followed them and closed the door behind him.
