Chapter 160


    Naturally, she could also choose to sleep in her son’s room. That being said, how could she let


    some man upy her bed just like that? Even if the man in question had a stunning face and was


    handsome beyond belief, she still did not want him sleeping there.


    “Alright, alright! I’ll let you sleep here for this night only.” With her hands on her hips, Anastasia gave


    in in the end.


    Leaving her room to go take a shower, she knew that she could only share a bed with Jared tonight.


    And so, after bathing, Anastasia had on pajamas as she made her way to her son’s room.


    However, as if she was being lured, she went to her room to look in on Elliot, fearing that he might


    be ufortable or that the air conditioner might be too cold, causing him to catch a cold.


    Adjusting the temperature to 27 degrees, she then wanted to cover him with her nket, seeing


    how he doesn’t have one on.


    Swiftly, the man who was still asleep the second prior suddenly opened his eyes and tugged on her


    arm. Anastasia was then hugged tightly by him and she fell into his embrace. The very next second,


    Elliot pinned her down hard.


    Their lovey-dovey position made Anastasia lift her head in anger, and she stared into his deep eyes


    which threatened to suck her in. “Elliot Presgrave, let go of me! Don’t be an a*shole!” she warned.


    “What did I do to make you call me that?” Smirking, the man then held her face up with his hand


    and went in for a kiss, leaving no room for her to avoid him.


    It was very conflicting for Anastasia when she was being kissed by Elliot. Although she resisted it,


    she was also slowly epting it.


    She just came out of the shower and she smelled very nice, so much so that even her breathing


    was sweet. To Elliot, this was like opening a huge present. Of course, he still had his wits around


    him and did not try to cross the line.


    In the end, the kiss made Anastasia lose control as the strength left her body. With the man


    eventually stopping his kissing, he looked at the panting and flushed woman, andughed


    charismatically. “Did you like that?”


    “Get away… from me…” Not holding herself back, she pushed him away. “I think you’re all fine now,


    so you should quickly leave.”


    Yet, Elliot just instead continued to lie down on the bed. With a sleepy gaze, he murmured, Tm tired


    now. I can’t drive.”


    “Stop pretending,” Anastasia rebuked, not believing an ounce of what he said.


    “Are you going to be responsible if anything happens to me on the way home?” Using his arm as a


    support, Elliot looked utterly delectable as he peered back at her.


    Feeling her breath hitch, Anastasia quickly turned away. “I’ll let you stay tonight. Tomorrow you’ll be


    leaving first thing in the morning.”


    With that, Anastasia quickly shut the door and left for her son’s room.


    That night, she could not sleep a wink at all with her brain being upied by Elliot from time to time.


    That kiss had jumbled all her thoughts, and her body would feel a jolt of electricity every time she


    thought about Elliot for more than two seconds.


    Her thought ever since five years ago of staying well from men seemed to have lost all effectiveness


    when she faced him. What is going on?


    It was not until it got veryte that Anastasia became so tired she fell asleep. When she was still


    somewhat unconscious, she vaguely heard her son’s excited voice. “Mr. Presgrave, you really


    stayed over!”


    Hearing this, Anastasia immediately opened her eyes and flung open the covers. Opening the door,


    she saw Jared already dressed for school, while Elliot sat next to him, packing up the boy’s bag.

    “Are… you going to send Jared to school?” Anastasia asked, her gaze remaining sleepy.


    Raising his head, Elliot felt like something was tugging at his heartstrings when he murmured, “Did


    you not sleepst night?”


    “I did. I slept super soundlyst night!” Anastasia retorted forcefully, but her puffy eyes told another


    story.


    “Just go back to sleep. I’ll send Jared to school.” At that point, Elliot had already finished preparing


    and was ready to send the boy to school.


    Knowing that she herself did not sleep well, she just nodded in response. “Alright, then. Please take


    the trouble to send him to his ss.”


    “I know.” Smirking, Elliot held Jared by the hand. “Let’s go, Jared.”


    “Goodbye, Mommy!” Jared then held Elliot’s hand and they went out.


    Knowing that she had a rare moment of sleeping in, Anastasia thought for a moment before thinking


    that her bed would be morefortable. In the end, she went back to sleep in her own bed.
