That man was hers. Elliot came out holding a bouquet of red roses. He was wearing a thin ck trench coat, and he walked


    toward her, as if he was Prince Charming going up to his Cindere. He handed the bouquet to her, and she took it from him.


    She could see that the florist’s employees were watching them, looking a little envious.


    Anastasia took a whiff of the roses. It smelled seductively intoxicating, and it delighted her. Wow. Didn''t think he’d be this


    romantic.


    “Come with me. We''ll take Jared hometer and have dinner together.” Elliot had arranged everything for the day.


    Anastasia nodded. “Sure!” She was happy as long as he was around, no matter where they were.


    She was in Presgrave Corporation''s president''s office. The assistant was


    serving her cookies and coffee, not daring to slight her. She knew the rumors as well. It was said that her boss had been courting


    a woman for a long time. She


    was his beloved, and no one was more important than she was to him. That woman was Anastasia, a famous designer who used


    to work for Bourgeois.


    Anastasia was sitting on the couch in front of the French window. She sipped the coffee and flipped through some magazines. It


    was a rxing time, and she was looking forward to the rest of the day. She was engrossed in the magazines, until someone


    held her shoulders behind her.


    She turned around, and there Elliot was, straight out of his meeting.


    ‘Done with your meeting?’ She looked up.


    He stared at her and leaned in for a kiss. “Yes.” She indulged in that kiss, and he went even deeper. It was gentle, but also firm.


    She was embarrassed, but she enjoyed it nheless, though they were in an awkward position.


    She pushed him away when someone knocked on the door.


    Elliot said in frustration, ‘Come in!Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.


    Rey came in, but when he saw the both of them inside, he smiled. “I''lle back in a moment, sir.”


    ‘No need. Make it quick! Elliot frowned.


    “You need to sign this document. It’s urgent.’ Rey went over and handed the. file to him. Elliot scanned and signed it in just a


    moment. “I don’t want anyone disturbing me for half an hour.


    “Yes, sir.” Rey left the office right away.


    Anastasia blushed and she gave him a look. ‘Don’t push your work aside just for me.”


    “You''re more important than any work.”


    She smiled. ‘No can do. You gotta work to


    provide for me and Jared.”


    “Of course.” Elliot went to his desk and took his wallet out, then he gave her a few credit cards. “Here, honey. | have more if you


    need it.”


    She chuckled and shook her head. “I have


    more than enough now.” He said. “From now on, I''ll put everything | have under your name, including this


    company.”


    Ashocked Anastasia waved her hands.. “No. | don’t want that pressure. I’m fine just being your wife.”


    Okay then. Elliot was silent. “I see. But I’ll


    give you anything you want as long as | have it,” he promised her. She trusted him, of course. As she got up, she wrapped her


    arms around his neck


    and looked up at him. “All | want is you.”


    He looked down at her, his eyes glinting with some sort of desire. He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into his embrace.


    “Can we do it?” He sounded almost like he was begging, as if he had been waiting for her.


    He desired her, but he could never do it unless she agreed to it. He would never overstep.


    She blinked at him a few times and whispered, “You''ll have to get Jared to stay at Presgrave Residence then.”


    Elliot was overjoyed, and heughed. “I''ll call Jared right away.”


    He released and called the Presgrave Residence’s number right away.


    “Hi, Daddy,” Jared said.


    “Your mother and | have something to do tonight, son. Can you stay at the residence with your great-grandma?”


    “No. | want to be with you guys,” Jared refused.
