Chapter 257


    Chapter 257 We Must Repay Their Kindness


    Anastasia took the bottle and unscrewed the lid to drink it. Just then, footsteps were heard in the corridor,


    and they wereing from the corner of the elevator. Anastasia couldn’t help but nce over curiously


    while drinking her water.


    Pfff! When she saw who it was, she instantly choked on her drink.


    It was Elliot and Rey who came uninvited.


    Elliot strode in with his strong and slender legs. At the same time, he exuded a powerful aura that forced


    anyone on his way to look at him.


    Why is he here?


    When he saw that Anastasia was standing beside Alex and was seemingly chatting with him, he


    narrowed his eyes dangerously. He didn’t like the fact that men were always around Anastasia.


    “President Presgrave, what brings you here?” Anastasia walked up to him politely.


    “President Presgrave came because he is concerned about your father,” Rey exined with a smile.


    “Thank you for your concern. My dad will be discharged by noon.” Anastasia looked at Elliot gratefully.


    “Bring me over to see your dad,” uttered Elliot in a low voice.


    With that, Anastasia led him into Francis’ ward. When she pushed open the door, she informed her


    father, who was ying with Jared. “Dad, President Presgrave is here to see you.”


    Francis immediately felt overwhelmed. Beside him, Jared eximed, “Is Mr. Presgrave here?”


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    Right then, Elliot entered the ward, his gaze turning gentle upon seeing Jared. “You’re here too, Jared!”


    “Hi, Mr. Presgrave.” Jared walked up to him and held his hand before they both walked hand-in-hand to


    Francis’ bed.


    “Young Master Elliot, why did youe all the way? It must have been bothersome. Why did you buy all


    these gifts too?” Francis felt ttered because he was grateful that Elliot was willing to save hispany,


    so why would he stille all the way to visit him?


    “It’s no big deal. I was so worried when I heard that you were hospitalized.” Elliot looked at Francis with


    concern, and he was also aware that Francis was eager to know what would happen to hispany. “I


    already settled the acquisition of yourpany.”


    “So soon? How did you do it?!” Francis eximed in astonishment. “Did Lawrence agree to give up on


    acquiring mypany?”


    Rey, who was standing at the side, smiled while answering, “Old Master Tillman, you might not know


    about it, but President Presgrave has long been worried that yourpany will be acquired, so he has


    prepared for this beforehand. We’ll acquire theirpany soon, so you don’t have to worry about it


    anymore.”


    Hearing that, Francis was shocked yet relieved. At the same time, he also witnessed the power of wealth


    and power. That was the cruel reality of the business world that resembled a battlefield. Like a food


    chain, the strong ones would feed on the weak ones. Though hispany was small, Lawrence’s


    company eventually couldn’t escape the fate of being acquired by another biggerpany.


    Standing on the side, Anastasia was also dumbfounded. Elliot acquired Lawrence’spany?! When


    she thought about how the old man bragged and yelled in front of her father yesterday, she could finally


    breathe a sigh of relief.


    “Thank you for your concern. I’m really grateful for your efforts.” Francis was so overwhelmed that his


    eyes turned red. He looked into Elliot’s eyes as if thetter were a parent who provided for him all their


    life.


    At the same time, Anastasia couldn’t help but cast a look of gratitude at Elliot. She wasn’t capable of


    supporting her father, but Elliot managed to boost up her father’s confidence in front of his rival.


    “This is what I should do, Mr. Tillman.” Elliot stayed true to his words that he would do anything for the


    Tillman family.


    Jared, who was standing beside Elliot, seemed to have sensed the atmosphere. He hugged Elliot and


    raised his head at him, saying, “You’re a good man, Mr. Presgrave. You saved Grandpa’spany and


    even helped my mom out a lot.”


    “Haha. I’m doing this willingly.”


    “Mommy, you said we should be grateful to anyone who helps us and repay their kindness. Now that Mr.


    Presgrave helped us, do you have to repay his kindness?” Jared didn’t know that the Presgrave family


    was indebted to his grandmother, so based on his understanding, his mother had to repay Elliot’s


    kindness.


    “That’s right, Jared! We must repay their kindness if they help us!” Anastasia took the opportunity to


    educate her son.
