    She actually hooked up with that hot man ahead of me? This won’t do! I cannot allow Anastasia to


    snatch away the man I have my eyes on!


    “Mom, that’s the man. Do go and ask Dad who he is!” Erica pointed at where Elliot


    was.


    Naomi raised her eyes and looked in that direction. It was the figure of a young man, and he


    seemed tall and decent from his back, so he should have handsome looks.


    Therefore, Naomi held Erica’s arm and headed toward her husband. After greeting him, she


    dragged Francis to one side and asked, “Francis, who’s that guest?” She pointed in the direction of


    Elliot.


    Francisughed. “He’s the young master of the Presgrave Family, the most honorable guest


    tonight.”


    “The young master of the Presgrave Family? Which Presgrave Family?” asked Naomi in


    puzzlement. She was unfamiliar with the people of the business world.


    “Which else? Theirpany is situated in the tallest office building in the city center. Don’t you


    always see it when you go shopping?” Francis exined Elliot’s identity in the simplest and easiest


    manner.


    At that instant, Naomi and Erica exchanged nces. They instantaneously understood who he was


    referring to. After all, that building was andmark, the most iconic structure at the city center.


    “Oh, God! The Presgrave Corporation belongs to him? He’s super rich!”


    “His wealth is on par with a nation’s! Hispany is in global business,” Francis eximed


    “Mom, I have to get to know him! I have to get to know Young Master Presgrave!” Erica was so


    excited that she nearly went crazy. Never in a million years did she think that she would meet the


    President of the Presgrave Corporation at her father’spany event.


    Just then, Naomi narrowed her eyes in displeasure. “Is that Anastasia apanying Young Master


    Presgrave? Why is she with him?”


    “I just found out that Anastasia actually works in a jewelrypany under Young


    Master Presgrave, so I asked her to entertain him,” Francis replied.


    “Dad, why didn’t you ask me to entertain him instead? I’m your daughter too!” Erica immediately felt


    jealous of Anastasia. Did Dad intentionally give Anastasia a chance to spend time with Young


    Master Presgrave?


    “Ask you to go? What can you talk to him about? Even I myself don’t know how I should entertain


    him,” Francis reprimanded helplessly.


    It was fortunate that his elder daughter could entertain the guest on his behalf. Truth was, Francis


    had nced in that direction a few times and found that Anastasia seemed to be getting along well


    with Elliot.


    However, nobody knew what they were actually talking about. In fact, nobody could guess how


    displeased Anastasia was with Elliot’s presence. She was currently persuading him to leave if he


    had no other business there. Unfortunately, the thick skinned man insisted on staying.


    “I’ll tell my father that you have to leave because of something urgent. He won’t me you for that,”


    she urged.


    “Miss Tillman, are you driving away your father’s guest? If you continue to try to drive me out, I’ll


    comin to your father and have him uphold justice.” The man elegantly held a teacup and took a


    sip of the tea that he disliked.


    Anastasia bit her red lips. “Elliot, I’m begging you. Stop repaying my dad. He doesn’t know that you


    are actually repaying kindness, so it won’t be fair to him.”


    “Anastasia, let me tell you something-someone has their eyes on your father’s business. They are


    trying to carry out their n of acquiring a few small-scaled construction materialpanies, and


    your father’s firm is one of them. Do you still think that I shouldn’t help out your father now?” he


    leaned in and whispered at her.


    Anastasia was startled by the news. She raised her head and looked into the man’s serious eyes


    that suggested that what he had said was not a lie. “Are you serious?” she asked.


    “The industry of construction material has always been a profitable industry. Besides, there will


    always be investors wherever there is profit,” he nonchntlymented.


    Anastasia was stunned to hear that. She knew that the business world was always treacherous withCopyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    a set of harsh survival rules, but she never thought that it would happen to her father.


    At present, someone was looking at her with a disappointed gaze from a distance not far away from


    them. After barely getting to know her, Alex found that Anastasia had an outstanding man by her


    side. He had just heard from the others that the man who looked even younger than him was


    actually Elliot Presgrave, the high and mighty leader of the Presgrave Corporation.
