As she truly felt like she didn’t deserve Elliot, Anastasia croaked, “Elliot, you don’t have to lower yourself like this. You deserve a better woman in your life. Take Miss Dora for example.”

“And let you and Alex be together? Do you think that I am not half as qualified as he is to be a member of the Tillmans?” he argued.

He was really going to get angry if she kept pushing him to another woman.

She was stiff with surprise when she heard the question. Since when did marrying into the woman’s family become such a sought-after matter? she thought.

“Why don’t you head back first, Elliot? It is late and you have to go to work tomorrow!” Anastasia really didn’t want to stay with him a second longer.

When she noticed that he was not moving from his position, she could only approach Elliot and give him a push on his firm chest to start chasing him off. “Shoo. Shoo.”

He looked down at the soft hands on his chest and he pouted as he hummed. “Don’t even think of sending me away without giving me a good night kiss.”

Anastasia’s blood seemed to rush to her head then and she kissed him on his cheek. “Off you go!”

“Lips,” the man curtly demanded.

In order to get Elliot to leave, she tiptoed and gently pecked him on his thin lips. “Are we done?”

With that, the man finally turned around and left through the door. It was like she had finally ended the war and breathed a sigh of relief as soon as she closed the door.

She thought about it, and she didn’t understand what gave him the right to threaten him like this.

After Elliot returned to his car, he asked Rey with a depressed expression, “Rey, have you ever successfully pursued a woman? Care to share your experience with me?”

The assistant only turned his head in shame and muttered, “President Presgrave, I have never had a girlfriend.”

Elliot halted for a few seconds after hearing his words and when he eventually spoke again, he asked, “You probably are too busy from the work that I have given you. Do you want to take a vacation?”

“There is no need for that, President Presgrave. I like doing my job.” Rey was used to this kind of work intensity. Ever since he became Elliot’s executive assistant, he had enjoyed the sense of achievement from doing his work.

Elliot eventually gave up on the conversation. As he looked at the neon lights outside the window, his mind was filled with Anastasia’s stubborn face. It annoyed him how their relationship had remained stagnant for a long time.

“President Presgrave, are you troubled by your relationship with Miss Tillman? I have a suggestion. Maybe you can hear me out,” Rey suggested.

“Let me hear about it.” This was the exact problem that Elliot was worried about. Pursuing women was never something he was good at. In fact, he was never interested in women until he met Anastasia.

“President Presgrave, you have to also pay attention to your methods and strategies in pursuing women. For example, you have to take a step back in order to advance. You should give Miss Tillman some space in order for her to know what her heart wants.” Although Rey had no experience in love whatsoever, he still knew a way or two to a woman’s heart.

Now that he found Rey’s words interesting, Elliot gave it some thought. He suddenly let out an evil smile as his mood improved since he knew exactly what to do now.

Alex had just left Tillman Residence and had only been on the road for a while when his phone started to ring. The caller ID showed Naomi’s name, of whom he had saved in his phone before.

“Hello, Mrs. Tillman.” He picked up the call without missing a beat.

She went straight to the point as soon as he picked up. “Alex! Can I trouble you with something? Erica is wasted in a bar. Please bring her back home for me.”

“What? Miss Erica is drunk in a bar? That is not safe for her!” Alex immediately became concerned about her.

“Exactly! I am so worried about her! Is it inconvenient for you to pick her up?”

“No problem at all.” The man then asked, “Which bar is she at?”

“I will send you the location. Her friend has just sent it to me.”

“Alright. Rest assured, I will bring Miss Erica home.”

“Okay, thank you!” Naomi then hung up the call.

Alex received a text with the location of the bar after a while and he made haste to the establishment.

Erica, who was sitting in her car outside the bar, was listening to her mother talk on the phone. She was extremely against her mother’s plans for her. “Mom, do I really have to seduce Alex? He isn’t even on my level!”

“Erica, listen to me. You have to get Alex back from Anastasia. Or else, you and I won’t even be a part of your father’s company.”

“Even if we get him on our side, what advantage can we have?” After all, Erica had not yet mastered the art of planning ahead at such a young age.

“Of course, having Alex in our hands is preferable to him assisting Anastasia. Since he’s coming over to look for you now, you should use this chance to pull him over. He will be our best chance to seize your father’s company’s shares.”

Biting her lips, Erica reluctantly replied, “Fine. I’ll make do with it.”

Half an hour later, after receiving Alex’s call, she pretended to be drunk and walked out in a drunken stupor. When she arrived at the bar’s entrance, she pretended to trip and immediately fell into Alex’s embrace, her hands hugging him at the same time.

“Mr. Hunter, thank you for picking me up! I’m feeling so dizzy!”

“Are you all right, Miss Erica?” he asked as he assisted her to her feet. Despite this, he absolutely had no other intentions on her.

After all, Anastasia was the woman he liked as well as the one who would eventually take over Tillman Constructions.

Erica sensed that he did not take any advantage of her in any way and she was dissatisfied. Am I not attractive enough?

“Can you send me to the nearest hotel, Mr. Hunter?”

“Miss Erica, I’ll send you home.”

“No, I’m not going home. I’ve already reserved a hotel room. Please send me there!” She decided to win him over tonight.

With that, Alex was left with no choice but to send her to the nearest hotel. Right after they entered the room, she again took the initiative to hug him, claiming to be dizzy.

“Miss Erica, please don’t behave in such a way.” The ambitious Alex was clear as to what he wanted and hence, he would not lose control here.

Furthermore, he already had Anastasia in his heart and Erica wasn’t attractive to him at all.

“Why, Mr. Hunter? Am I not pretty to you? Don’t you like me?” Erica said as her eyes squinted while her hands were around his waist. Her gaze was of a seductive one.

“I apologize, Miss Erica. I already have someone in my heart.” He pushed her away calmly, not wanting to offend her, but did not want to get too close to her either.

“Who’s that?” she asked, pouting her red lips and staring at him through blurry eyes. At the same time, she tried to lean in closer.

Alex answered right away, “Your sister, Anastasia.”

That immediately snapped Erica out of her drunken state. Her eyes filled with resentment as she snorted .

With eyes filled with resentment, she snorted. “You like her? In which way is she better than me?”
