Chapter 187 “Jared, where did your mommy go?” “Mommy has something else to do.” And so, Nigel cto the conclusion that Anastasia had to work overtime, so she had brought Jared to the office, then had Elliot send Jared over to him. Nigel was certain that that was the truth.

At that moment, Anastasia was in a cab on the way to the hotel where her father’s company event would be held.

Her father’s company wasn't exactly a large establishment, so the celebration this twas organized in a regular 5-star hotel.

The attendees of the event were not required to go through the hassle of registration before entering the venue. Anastasia saw a sign at the lobby that stated, ‘Attendees of Tillman Construction’s banquet, please proceed to the third floor.

As soon as Anastasia exited from the lift, she followed the sign and arrived at a hall that was decorated with numerous tables and chairs. She saw her father standing among a few elderly men, and he looked radiant as he beamed gleefully. He seemed to be in high spirits as he raised his glass and chatted with the people around him.

“Dad!” Anastasia walked up to him and greeted him.

“Hey! This is my elder daughter, Anastasia.” Upon seeing her, Francis introduced her to his peers standing around him.

One of them couldn't help but compliment, “Tillman, you are so lucky to have such a gorgeous daughter!” “Not only does she have the looks, | heard that she is quite a capable lady as well,” another man praised.

Anastasia felt embarrassed upon hearing that. It seemed like her father had often mentioned her in front of his friends. Still, she was glad that she made her father proud.

“Good evening.” She smiled and greeted them.

Meanwhile, Francis was surveying the hall, seemingly looking for someone. Just then, a vigorous young man in a suit entered the hall, and Francis immediately called out to him, “Alex, chere.” Alex Hunter was about 28 or 29 years old, definitely below his thirties. Currently, he was emanating the youthful vibe of a young man. Upon hearing his boss’ summon, he quickly strode over. At that instant, he saw Anastasia, who turned to face him, and he was completely in awe.

Anastasia appraised him with her stunning eyes. This man must be Dad's employee! “Anastasia, letintroduce you to him. This is Alex Hunter, a recently promoted Finance Manager of our firm. He’s young and capable, and he’s a graduate from a renowned university,” Francis commended, his eyes full of compliments.

Anastasia greeted him with a smile. “Hello, Mr. Hunter.” Alex ruffled his hair in embarrassment. “You must be Miss Tillman! It's nice to finally meet you in person. President Tillman mentions you often.” “Alex, this is my elder daughter, Anastasia. I've always wanted to introduce you to each other. Please take good care of her on my behalf tonight,” Francis chimed in. It was apparent from his gaze that he had other plans.

Alex was both surprised and excited. At that point, he seemed a little flustered as he was afraid that he would offend or upset Anastasia.

“Miss Tillman, do you want to drink anything?” On the contrary, Anastasia remained calm and composed. She accompanied Alex to a table and smiled at him. “Mr. Hunter, I'll help myself. You should go about with your things.” Alex was personally trained by Francis to be his right-hand man. The latter even handed Alex the power over the most important department, which was the Finance Department. That night, Francis had the intention to set up Alex and his elder daughter, Anastasia. When Anastasia took over the company in the future, it would be much easier for her with Alex as her husband.

Francis had been cracking his head to keep his large business going when he had no son. Hence, the best way was to make Alex his son-in-law.

“Miss Tillman, I've often heard your father mentioning you. He said that you are a jewelry designer of a jewelry atelier. You are such a talented young woman.” Alex seemed embarrassed, but he was eager to present himself before the woman he had fallen for at first sight.

“I'm just a designer. You are the one who is amazing!” Anastasia praised him. He was a valuable employee of her father, so she naturally treated him politely.

“You are flattering me, Miss Tillman. President Tillman thinks well of me, so he gavethe position,” Alex replied humbly.

Anastasia then turned to survey the other guests, but Alex couldn't help but gaze fixedly at her. Her every movement seemed to capture his heart. It seemed that he had really fallen for Anastasia at first sight.
