    Chapter 329


    However, this incident hadn’t been all that bad. At least, she had clearly seen who the real Aliona was


    and would be aware to keep a distance from Aliona at work in the future.


    There was no need at all for someone with a background like Aliona to work at Bourgeois, which meant


    that she only came for one reason-Elliot!


    However, Anastasia understood why women would try their best to woo Elliot.


    Hayley had just stepped out of the car at the international airport when she took a deep breath before


    retrieving her phone to give him a call.


    It took 7 seconds before the seductive male voice came from the other end of the call. “Hello, Hayley. Is


    anything wrong?”


    “Elliot, I’ll be going for a vacation abroad for about 3 months. I wanted to say goodbye.”


    “Alright, go ahead! Be careful on your way there,” he reminded her.

    She then mysteriously added, “Elliot, you might see a different me by the time I return.”


    “Is that so? Alright. Stay safe out there.”


    A hint of disappointment shed across her face at that. Elliot had been putting on a ceremony with her


    as ofte where she couldn’t feel anything other than him treating her like a normal friend from his words.


    “Okay, I will! I will miss you,” Hayley added sweetly, but all he said in reply before hanging up was, “Mm.


    Tam hanging up.”


    She was only more disappointed because of his curt reply, but her disappointment soon turned into


    determination when she thought about how much life she had ahead of her. For one, she still had plenty


    of chances to change her fate since she would be a brand new person by the time she returned to the


    country


    “Let’s go, Miss Seymour!” There was a small group of 3 people by Hayley’s side.


    She turned her head to look at them and asked, “Did you bribe enough? I want the best surgeon.”


    “We did,” a middle-aged man within the trio answered her. “We have hired the best stic surgeon. Your


    satisfaction is guaranteed.”


    They did the best they could with the generous amount Hayley had paid them,


    “Good.” She started walking into the airport before she saw a mirror beside her. She clenched her jaw


    when she turned to look at her ordinary face. She detested her face; to her, it was because of her


    lackluster features that she couldn’t get Elliot to admire her. She was sure that she would be the one


    receiving Elliot’s love if only she had Anastasia’s facial features.


    In order to get the man to be hers, she wasn’t scared of the dangers and side effects that mighte


    with the procedure. All she wanted was for Elliot to love her. It could be a shallow love thatsted only for


    a while, but she didn’t mind it at all.


    Hayley’s love for the man was too deep for her to back out now as it was the kind of love that made her


    lose sleep at night. Constantly disturbed by the image of Elliot and Anastasia in her head, she never had


    a good night’s rest ever since she came back from the birthday banquet. The mere thought of them


    being loving to one another and how Anastasia managed to get all of his attention was enough to drive


    Hayley crazy with jealousy.


    She needed a different face in order to have Elliot.


    As to whose face she wanted to have, she wasn’t interested in the faces of all the beautiful celebrities


    out there. She wanted to have the face Elliot loved-she wanted Anastasia’s face.


    A pleased, yet somewhat menacing smile appeared on Hayley’s face as she moved her gaze away from


    the mirror.


    On the other hand, Elliot was sitting on a sofa in his vi while his 4 bodyguards reported to him as they


    stood in front of him.


    “President Presgrave, Riley Presgrave has been insistent on not leaving the country. We have given him


    a warning as you have instructed.”


    Hearing that, Elliot asked, “Has he gotten in contact with anyely?”


    “He has met up for meals with a few of his old friends. There is nothing beyond that.”


    “Keep a close eye on him. I want to know every move he makes in the country.” Elliot’s gaze sharpened


    dangerously as he gave his bodyguards the instruction,


    His parents’ death had been a lesson. Riley was far more evil than Elliot could ever imagine. He was


    sure that Riley still held a grudge from the time when he was chased out of the country by Elliot’s


    grandmother. There was a big possibility that Riley intended to cause harm to the Presgraves now that


    he was back.


    This was why Elliot couldn’t beckadaisical with monitoring the man since he also had his ways to nt


    eyes on Riley, who had been abroad.


    When the weekend came, Anastasia spent a normal, but heartwarming day with her son. For someone


    who lived a normal life like her, getting to live everyday peacefully and happily was the ultimate joy of life.
