Anastasia was caught by surprise when she heard that. She looked around the hall, and seemed to have remembered something as she turned to Felicia again. “You will have to excuse me for a moment, Felicia.”

Aliona must have taken the chance when Elliot went off to pick up his call to have an alone moment with him.

As Anastasia went into the hallway that Elliot had gone to, she saw Aliona speaking as she stood beside Elliot at the end of the hallway.

Anastasia only picked up her words when she got closer to them.

“Please forgive me, Elliot. I was drunk the other day. I only made such a mistake because I was out of it,” the woman explained regretfully.

“Miss Dora.” Elliot’s cold voice rang out as he stated, “I don’t mind letting this matter go, but I don’t wish to see you. Please be on your way.”

“I’m sorry, Elliot. Can you please forgive me just this one time for my father’s sake?” She then held up her hand, and with a pitiful expression on, she swore, “I promise I won’t ever do something like that anymore.”

Anastasia felt like now was the right time for her to step in.

She pretended like she was looking for someone, and she came running to Elliot when her eyes landed on him. “There you are, Elliot. Vice-president Young was looking for you.”

After saying that, she laced her arm through Elliot’s before acting as though she had just noticed Aliona’s presence. “You are here too, Miss Dora?”

Having squeezed out all the tears she could muster earlier, Aliona quickly turned her face away from Anastasia.

However, Anastasia didn’t seem to want to bother herself with Aliona as she proceeded to tug on Elliot’s arm. “Let’s go,” she urged. “Let’s return to the banquet hall.”

Seeing this, Aliona immediately threw a glare at the other woman. She knew that Anastasia had interrupted her apology on purpose.

“I didn’t think you would still have the nerve to see Elliot again, Miss Dora. You are surprisingly thick-skinned!” Anastasia added in a ridiculing tone.

“Anastasia Tillman! You—”

Anastasia cut her off before she could even begin her sentence. “You should thank me for stopping you from causing trouble you can’t be responsible for.”

“How dare you?” Aliona’s face had turned white.

Anastasia smirked in response. “Forget it! There is no need to thank me.”

Elliot’s eyes fell on Anastasia then, and unlike the cold gaze he had on just moments ago, he was now looking at Anastasia with loving eyes.

You want me to thank you? Aliona thought incredulously. I hate you so much I could kill you! My plan would have worked if it wasn’t for you!

She managed to keep those words in as she only said in a calm voice, “Miss Tillman, I have something to say to Elliot. Please give us some privacy.”

“Oh—you will have to forgive me, then. I, too, have something important to talk to Elliot about. I will be bringing him with me.” Anastasia snaked her arm around his as she spoke. “Let’s go!”

The man took it another step further by wrapping his arm around her waist, thereafter humming in response.

After saying that, the two of them started to leave, and all Aliona could do was watch on as her plan to apologize got ruined once more.

You are a dead woman, Anastasia! I will make sure you pay for this!

Aliona’s nails were digging into her flesh, the resentment in her eyes threatening to overflow.

Anastasia had only rescued Elliot out of Aliona’s clutches out of the kindness of her heart, but before they even got back to the banquet hall, Elliot suddenly dragged her along to an empty private room before he closed the door behind him.

She only looked at him with a confused expression on her face, and she asked, “What are you doing?”

“Didn’t you say you have something important to tell me? I’m all ears.” He looked excited as he leaned his back against the door.

She couldn’t help but laugh when she saw the man fake ignorance.

With her eyebrows raised, Anastasia exclaimed, “I threw out that nonsense to save you! Why would I have anything important to talk to you about?”

Elliot’s eyes seemed to dim as he stared at her looking all sensual and seductive in her black evening gown. Annastasia naturally had an alluring quality to her.

“I will do the talking then,” he breathed.

Seeing him slowly approaching her, she raised her hands to push him back. “Just talk, then. There is no need for you to get so close.”

The corners of his lips raised ever so slightly as he leaned in.

He was so close that she had no choice but to arch her neck. Her nostrils were filled with his unique manly scent then.

“That’s close enough!” She blinked a few times. “Just say it. I can hear you.”

“You look gorgeous tonight.”

“I know,” she replied in a humorous yet coquettish tone.

Elliot’s breathing started to quicken. “Do you have any idea what I have been thinking about the whole night?”

How would I know?! she quietly exclaimed before the man held her delicate face in one hand, while the other forced her chin up. He then growled in a low and raspy voice, “I have been thinking about kissing you.”

His thin lips completely sealed hers off the next second.

Anastasia didn’t push him away this time. The man had thoroughly captivated her tonight. From the way that he carefully planned the lucky draw session, to him colding rejecting Aliona’s advances only showing this special side of his to Anastasia alone, she didn’t think there would be a woman out there who wouldn’t feel touched by it.

Aliona stayed in the hallway without returning to the banquet hall. Now that she had felt Elliot’s indifference, it seemed impossible for her to restore her image and be with him.

Her only choice now was to follow Riley’s plan to kidnap Elliot, and have the latter killed after she gave birth to their child.

There was no way she would let Anastasia get off easy as well, as she was the reason Aliona had to go through all the humiliation she did.

At the same time in the banquet hall, Hayley was waiting for a chance to strike. As soon as the lights came back on, she hid herself in the bathroom as she told May to notify her as soon as Elliot had left the hall by himself.

Even though May didn’t know why Hayley wanted her to do this, she still obediently did as she was told.

The couple who was making out in the private room was starting to lose control as they sucked on and nibbled each other’s lips and tongue. When Anastasia realized that Elliot wanted to do more to her, she had to forcibly push him away.

“Enough, Elliot,” she gasped, feeling a little annoyed.

He incessantly made light bites on her thin lips, and he finally glanced at the sofa in the room and said, “The room is too small. I can’t even unleash my full potential here.”

Anastasia was utterly speechless at that as she thought, What an overthinker!

After coming out of the room, she went to the banquet hall to find Felicia, whereas Elliot sat in the room to rest while he waited for Anastasia to be done with her business.

Unbeknownst to the couple, May was hiding behind a pillar when Anastasia left the room. She couldn’t help but feel envious as she watched Anastasia brush out the wrinkles on her gown. May had a feeling that Elliot and Anastasia must have been up to no good after staying alone in the private room for more than 10 minutes.

She immediately whipped out her phone and sent a message to Hayley, asking her to go to Room No. 8, where Elliot was in alone.

Anastasia wanted to ask Felicia something when she returned to the banquet hall, but when the former couldn’t find her, and seeing as to it was time to go back to pick up her son, she turned back to the direction of the private room.

Hayley, who was still hiding in the bathroom, came out excitedly holding her phone after she received the message from May.

Anastasia saw a figure disappearing into a corner as soon as she stepped out of the door of the banquet hall. She couldn’t help being surprised by seeing who she thought was Hayley.

She immediately followed after Hayley with hasty steps. As she hid behind a door, she saw that Hayley and May were together whispering about something.

Anastasia quietly sneered at the sight. She still remembered vividly how May was the one who helped Hayley hide her phone the last time her son went missing.
