Chapter 525


    Francis had been doing a good job over the past few years, so thepany’s performance had been


    very stable.

    Just then, Alex came in somewhat anxiously. “Miss Tillman, I’d like to talk to you.”


    Anastasia raised her eyebrows impassively. “Is there anything, President Hunter?”


    “Could you ask President Presgrave to give us a break and stop targeting Tillman Constructions? This is


    your dad’spany, after all, Alex said in an almost pleading tone.


    Anastasia frowned slightly. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”


    “Your dad secured quite some projectsst year, but now those clients intend to cancel their orders. I


    only have a handful of small orders now, but they can hardly sustain thepany’s growth.”


    Anastasia seemed unruffled on the surface, but she was surprised inwardly.


    Did Elliot really take action against Alex? What is he up to? “This has nothing to do with Elliot. If the


    clients want to cancel their orders, you should look within yourself for the reasons instead of ming him


    for it,” she argued. Then, she mocked coldly, ‘Mr. Hunter, I believe nothing will happen to my dad’s


    company as long as it’s in your hands. You’re such a capable person, after all.”


    In that case, Miss Tillman, please ask President Presgrave if he has anything to do with this. If this is


    really his doing. please ask him to give the projects back to us,” Alex implored humbly.


    However, it was clear that Anastasia wouldn’t help him. “Thepany’s projects are your own business.


    I’m only in charge of thepany’s finances.”


    Alex also realized that Anastasia didn’t care at all about Tillman Constructions’ fate. However, he cared


    about it. Francis would never regain consciousness for life, which would make thepany his property.


    Therefore, he had to make sure that thepany made profits. Now that he had married Erica, he was


    considered one of thepany s major shareholders. Not only that, but Erica intended to transfer to him


    the 40 percent shares Naomi owned in thepany, making him thepany’srgest shareholder.


    As soon as he left, Anastasia took out her phone and dialed Elliot’s number.


    “Hello? A male voice answered the phone with a chuckle on the other end as if knowing that she would


    call him.


    “Is it because of you that Tillman Constructions lost a few big projects?” Anastasia asked..


    “Yes, it is.”


    “Why would you do that?” Anastasia was puzzled.


    “I want to acquire Tillman Constructions,”


    Elliot said.


    “How are you gonna acquire it, then?” Anastasia had no objection to his methods.


    Elliot sounded like he was talking about something ordinary. Since Alex wants so much to have your


    dad’spany to himself, I’ll let him taste what it’s like to be burdened with huge debts. He’s got only


    himself to me for asking for trouble.”


    “Is there anything that I can do for you?”


    “No, it’s not necessary. Let me do it by myself. Elliot had nned this for a long time. Alex was one of the


    people he hated the most because he had overreached himself by courting Anastasia. This alone was


    sufficient tond him on Elliot’s cklist.


    I’m checking thepany’s ounts, and I found some issues. The ounts don’t tally; there’s a


    difference of several million. Anastasia took charge of Tillman


    Constructions’ finances precisely to dig up dirt on Alex. Francis trusted him very much, but had he done


    something behind the former’s back? Perhaps she could find some issues.


    “Alright. I’lle pick you up. Elliot


    wanted to pick her up from work.


    “Okay. I’d like to go to the hospital to visit my dad.”


    Meanwhile, Alex was sitting in Francis former seat. He wasn’t that stupid. Instead, he smelled danger. He


    was suddenly bing Tillman Constructions’rgest shareholder. If thepany went bankrupt one


    day, he would have to take on huge debts. Not only would he fail to be rich, but he would also be


    heavily in debt-all thanks to the tricks yed by Elliot, the multimillionaire capitalist.


    The conjecture brought him out in a cold sweat. Just then, however, Erica called, saying, “Hey, A lex. I’m


    now on my way to your office to bring you my mom’s equity contract before we sign the share transfer


    agreement.”


    Alex was caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, there was the temptation of Tillman Constructions’


    shares; on the other hand, however, there were Elliot’s overwhelming capabilities. “Damn it!” Looking


    extremely irritable, he pushed the documents off his desk. Elliot was standing in his way of getting rich,


    but he was powerless to fight back.
