Chapter 365


    Chapter 365


    Contrary to Elliot’s expectations, even though Anastasia looked pale, she only held on to his arm for


    support. At that moment, Elliot desperately wanted to hold her in his embrace.


    However, she retreated instinctively, so he retracted his arm mid-air.


    “I’ll send you home first and let my men handle the rest here,” said Elliot in a deep voice.


    “Let Rey send me home! You should stay back and catch Riley instead.” After saying that, she closed the


    door. Through the car window, she seemed cold and distant.


    When he saw that, Elliot could feel his heart throb in pain. Why did he feel like she was miles away from


    him though they hadn’t seen each other for merely a day?


    What did Riley tell her?


    After that, Elliot instructed Rey to send Anastasia back home while he stayed back to settle everything


    here.


    Never did Riley expect a simple kidnap case to cause him so much trouble. All of his subordinates had


    copsed, and he was being pressed to the ground like a losing warrior surrendering in front of his


    nephew.


    Elliot resembled a young king on the throne, looking down at the man below him in contempt.


    “Let go of me, Elliot! I’m your uncle! I’m your senior!” Riley huffed, intending to use his rtionship with


    Elliot to escape.


    “What did you tell Anastasia? Are you the culprit who killed her mother and kidnapped me back then?”


    shouted Elliot.


    In response, Riley snickered while saying, “Find the evidence and sue me if you’re capable of it! I won’t


    admit a thing.”


    Elliot’s eyes darkened at that. “In that case, be prepared to rot in prison!”


    From the looks of it, Riley could be sentenced to a few years of jail for the kidnapping of Anastasia.


    However, Riley did not panic as he was being detained in the car. Even if he went to prison, he… didn’t


    have to be scared since he had one more trump card.


    His goddaughter, Aliona, would certainly give birth to her son. Sooner orter, the entire Presgrave


    Group would fall under his hands.


    While they were on the road, Anastasia tried to call Grace. Fortunately, thetter picked up the phone


    and told Anastasia that she was found thrown into a ditch by the roadside and was sent to the hospital


    for treatment. Thankfully, she was awake now.


    “Thank goodness you’re alright, Anastasia.” Grace was so shocked that she nearly cried. She had also


    called the police.


    Anastasia was grateful for what she had done and told her that she would talk to her in detail once she


    got back.


    While sitting in the backseat, Anastasia’s mind was filled with Riley’s words. She felt conflicted. Was she


    going to me the Presgrave Family for her mother’s death back then?


    Back then, Old Madam Presgrave had called the mayor and pressured the police. Because of th the


    police ordered her mother to save a life at the scene. Was her mother forced to save Elliot, did she do it


    willingly?


    No matter what, her mother sacrificed her life in exchange for an opportunity for Elliot to live


    However, as her daughter, Anastasia developed feelings for him, and that made her even more


    distressed


    Once Rey dropped her off at her house, he reminded, “Have a good rest, Miss Tillman.”


    “Thank you, Rey.” After thanking him, Anastasia entered the house and shut the door.


    Rey didn’t leave after that, for he had to protect Anastasia until Elliot came over.


    At the police station, Riley was arrested for kidnapping, whereas Elliot’s bodyguard handed ove all video


    evidence so that he couldn’t escape the punishment.


    At the same time, Elliot also applied for a re-investigation of his kidnapping case back then with Riley as


    the primary suspect. He also called for another investigation into Amelia’s case, the policewoman who


    had died in the same year. Thankfully, the police attached great importance this matter.


    Aftering out of the police station, Elliot rushed to Anastasia’s housing area immediately. He called


    Nigel, told him what happened today, and ordered him to protect Jared well.


    On the other end of the line, Nigel was taken aback by the information. With that, he hurriedly sent


    someone to the kindergarten to pick Jared up. He was going to let Jared stay by his side so that he could


    take care of him for the next few days,


    As she sat on the sofa, Anastasia could feel that the fear of being kidnapped had dissipated, but she felt


    complicated emotions. She stood in Old Madam Presgrave’s shoes; if her only grandson had been


    kidnapped back then, she would also be willing to do anything to save him no matter how crazy it was.Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.
