Moreover, her father had been keen to seek Elliot’s assistance, which was why he allowed his beautiful daughter to be at his side


    as it was the easiest and most direct thing to do.


    Anastasia lifted the teacup off the table as her stunning eyes narrowed slightly while she needed to give Lori a proper


    warning. She would not, in any way, tolerate another woman interfering in her rtionship with her husband, who was not just


    the father of her son but also her husband.


    When it came to protecting her marriage, Anastasia would never be lenient. Anyone who tried to meddle with her marriage would


    be held ountable for their actions.


    At night, she was so tired that she fell asleep in her man’s arms. Her hair was messy and Elliot kissed her face, which was still


    red. The woman’s delicate oval


    face in his arms appeared weary in the faint light.


    He couldn''t help but smile since this was his aplishment and he had every reason to be pleased with himself.


    Lori was unable to sleep in her apartment. She hung Elliot’s suit on the rack in front of the bed. The unironed clothing


    remained smooth and wrinkle free. In her mind''s eye, she could see him donning this outfit, whichplemented his good


    physique.N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    She stood up in her pajamas and had a seductive aura as she pulled the suit from the rack, held it in her arms to return to bed,


    after which she sniffed the man’s scent on the suit and moaned softly.


    She longed for the day when the owner of this outfit woulde and lie next to her, embrace her, and fall asleep.


    “Do you realise how much | like you, Elliot?” Her eyes were welling up with tears, as though she was grieving.


    In the early morning, Anastasia got up to check on her son and saw that Jared was already d in a school uniform, giving the


    impression that he was well prepared for his day at school.


    “Mommy.” He affectionately extended his hands for a hug..


    She kissed his little head and sniffed it once more. Perhaps all mothers found itforting to smell the scent of their own child.


    “You smell wonderful, Mommy!” He sniffed her like a puppy, after which she carried him into her arms and replied, “Brush your


    teeth and wash your face!”


    Elliot had already dressed up; a white shirt was always his favourite outfit and it made him rxed whenever it was matched with


    a pair of suit pants.


    While their kid was inside the restroom to brush his teeth and wash his face, Elliot took advantage of the opportunity to embrace


    his wife and look at her attire for the day in a way that indicated he was examining it.


    He also firmly buttoned the second button on her shirt, which she had purposefully left undone when she dressed in the morning.


    Then, hemanded her in a low voice that


    sounded envious, “Don’t unbutton it.”


    “Can''t | unbutton it even if it''s hot?” Anastasia chuckled.


    “Then, lower the temperature of the air conditioner.” Elliot simply did not want anybody else to see her assets and added, “I''ll


    send my son to school, head to the summit, and ask Adriana to drive you to thepany.”


    “Okay! Go ahead!” She nodded.


    Jared followed his father out the door as Anastasia observed their car drive away. She checked the time, produced her phone


    and dialled Lori’s number.


    Lori was also about to head out. When she heard the phone ring, she grabbed it and looked at it. “Hello, Anastasia,” she


    answered with apprehension.


    “Lori, are you okay?! Elliot mentionedst night that you were harassed by foreign guests.” Anastasia asked out of concern.


    “Uh! I’m alright; thankfully, he helped me out,” Lori hastily responded.


    “That’s what Elliot should do as long as you''re alright.”


    “I''m fine, thank you,” she replied with a smile.


    “Are you avable at noon? Let’s have a


    meal!” Anastasia asked her.


    “Sure! After all, | need to return Elliot''s suit to you,” Lori answered


    Anastasia grinned as she hung up the phone. “All right, let’s meet at noon.”


    She didn’t want Lori to use the suit as an excuse, so she went out of her way to request that it be returned.


    Lori heaved a sigh of relief as she looked at the suit that she had held all night. She was actually hesitant to return it and even


    pondered taking the suit back to Elliot one day since it could be considered as an opportunity to meet the man.


    She was suddenly acutely aware that Anastasia was keeping a watchful eye on her. She thought that all of her thoughts were


    very well suppressed, but she couldn’t escape from Anastasia’s observant eyes.
