Chapter 4
At the QR International Group, a mysterious acquisition team was negotiating with the owner Jack in
the conference room. Thetter finally signed the acquisition contract at a price of 10 billion. As of yet,
no one knew that the boss of QR International Group had been reced. The middle-aged man who
walked out of the acquisition meeting room took out his phone and reported to the man at the other
end, saying, “Young Master Elliot, the acquisition has been sessfullypleted, and you have now
be the president of QR International Jewelry Group.” “I got it,” the man on the other end
responded lightly. In order to fulfill his promise to his grandmother of pursuing Anastasia, Elliot spent 10
billion to acquire thepany she was working at. Only Anastasia could refuse the wedding proposal,
so in the process, he had to show his grandmother what he had done. Still, it was unknown whether he
could marry Anastasia in the end. Elliot hoped that Anastasia would reject him. After all, every good
marriage needed to be based on a foundation of mutual emotional interest. Otherwise, it would be
meaningless to live together without any love in the rtionship. At this point, Anastasia didn’t know
that her boss had changed. In the next few days, she found a private kindergarten for her son nearby
and sent her son there so that she was free to work. The little boy was interested in the new school, so
with a bag on his back, he took the teacher’s hand and skipped into the ssroom. “Is that your son?
He’s so handsome! I’ve never seen such a good-looking boy,” a mothermented in amazement.
Anastasia pursed her lips and smiled; she was naturally happy as a mother when someone praised her
son’s good looks. At Bourgeois, Anastasia came to work on her first day. As a designer sent by the
design department, she enjoyed many perks. For example, she had a dedicated office and a capable
assistant herself. Moreover, she only designed custom designs exclusively for a select few and not for
the masses. This was also one of the unique selling points of QR International Group—each customer
would have a unique lifetime customization service. Anastasia’s assistant was called Grace Ellis. She
was a young, energetic, smart, and capable woman. “Anastasia, your coffee.” Grace brought in the
coffee. “Thank you.” Anastasia nodded. In less than 2 minutes, Grace knocked on the door again.
“Anastasia, the manager said that the meeting will be held at 3.00 PM, and the boss himself will be
there, so be prepared.” At 3.00 PM sharp, Anastasia sat in her seat inside the meeting room. There
were many important members of Bourgeois in the room, so it seemed that this was argepany
meeting. While Anastasia was checking it out, she inadvertently met a pair of sharp eyes belonging to a
sexy woman in her 20s. Her name tag read: Chief Designer Alice. Anastasia immediately
understood. Being a designer sure is verypetitive. Therefore, there were no so-called friends in
this industry but only rivals inpetition. Since she was transferred back from abroad, it was normal
for her to be disliked by others. At this time, footsteps came from outside the door, as if there were still
peopleing. The door of the conference room was then pushed open, and the first person who
came in was a tall man with a straight figure who was dressed in a well-cut suit. He had angr
features and exuded a strong aura. After he came in, he walked over to the main chair and sat down.
Without needing to say a word, his majestic aura made his powerful identity known to everyone. When
everyone saw him, there was an instant silence below the stage. Why is the big boss different
today? The female designers in the audience were all surprised and excited as they felt butterflies in
their stomachs when they looked at the handsome man. As for Anastasia, she was also surprised. Isn’t
the boss of Bourgeois someone in his early fifties? Why is this man so young? At this time, the vice
president of thepany, Larry Young, coughed lightly. “Let me introduce all of you to Mr. Elliot
Presgrave. He is now the CEO and chairman of QR International Group. From now on, he will take
over all the affairs of Bourgeois. Everyone, please give him a warm wee.” There was a sudden
collective gasp from the audience. Elliot Presgrave? He bought QR Jewelry Group? While others were
gasping in shock and confusion, Anastasia instantly raised her head and stared at the man in question,
who happened to be looking at her too. Elliot had a pair of extremely deep eyes that were as sharp as
an eagle’s, so others did not even have the courage to look at him. However, Anastasia had the guts,
and she had probably guessed why this man appeared here. Could it be that as long as I don’t ept
the Presgrave Family’s repayment, they will continue to appear around me? Did I not make myself
clear enough? “Let’s start the meeting! You will preside over the meeting,” Elliot retracted his gaze and
said to Larry beside him. The women present were so excited that their gazes shone. The content of
the meeting was not important at all, as they just stared at Elliot in fascination. This man truly exuded
an unparalleled superiority from head to toe, and he was also extremely wealthy. Thus, he was the man
that every woman in the country dreamed of marrying. Anastasia also didn’t listen to the content of theContent from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
meeting because she was absent-minded. When she looked up from time to time, she found that the
man was looking at her, which made her ufortable. Soon, all the people in the meeting discovered
this. Why did Elliot only stare at Anastasia alone? Was it because she was young and beautiful?
Instantly, all the women stared jealously at her. It seemed that Elliot’s special treatment of her made
them angry. Anastasia really wanted to shout and stop Elliot from looking at her. Nevertheless, she still
endured it. She just wanted to finish the meeting and leave, and she didn’t want to stay in thispany
anymore, but when she remembered she had just signed a 5-year contract, she was lost for words.
After some time, the meeting was finally over. Anastasia was the first to rush out of the conference
room. She returned to the office feeling agitated. At this moment, there was a knock on her office door.
As soon as she turned around, Elliot pushed the door open and came in. Immediately, she red at
him, feeling annoyed at his presence. “Is there something you need, President Presgrave?” Anastasia
sat down in her chair, seeming a little impatient, and did not give him the respect one should give their
boss at all. Hearing that, Elliot pulled the chair across from her desk and sat down gracefully with an air
of arrogance and superiority. Then, he said coldly in a maic voice, “Miss Tillman, let’s talk.” “Are we
talking about work?” Anastasia asked with raised eyebrows. “You should know that I was kidnapped
when I was five years old. It was your mother who gave her life to save me, and I survived. For this, the
Presgrave Family is forever grateful and wants to repay you. Just say the word, and I will try to satisfy
your requests.” Elliot looked at her calmly while expressing his thoughts. Sure enough, he is doing this
just to repay myte mother. “No need. My mother saved you because it was her responsibility as an
officer. You don’t need to repay me, and I won’t ept it.” Anastasia refused firmly. “I heard that you
have a son. If you want, I can raise him with you and take care of him.” Elliot proposed with narrowed
eyes. Anastasia suddenly raised her head to look at the man opposite her, and at this moment, a
sudden thought shed in her mind. Huh? She actually thought for a moment that her son looked like
this man. Their facial features, eyes, temperament, and even their hair were simr. How weird. “I don’t
need someone else to raise my son for me.” Anastasia refused again.
