Anastasia had just picked up her bag and was about to leave the finance department when Erica cand stopped her face to face. ‘Let's talk.” Anastasia looked at her with folded arms. “About what?” “My mom will never set Dad up, so you must've made a mistake. Please have her released, Erica uttered between clenched teeth.

Anastasia’s eyes flashed fire. “Erica, if you still have a conscience, please care about Dad instead of making excuses for your mom. He's hovering between life and death now.” Erica was visibly startled. “W-What happened to Dad?” “From now on, you no longer have to know my dad’s condition.’ Anastasia clenched her fists. In her opinion, Erica’s actions had made her unqualified to be Francis’ daughter.

“What gives you the right to not letknow his condition? H-He’s also my dad,” Erica protested diffidently. Then, recalling that she was here to beg Anastasia for mercy, she immediately pleaded in a softer voice, “Sis, please let my mom off! Whatever she did, she only did it in a momentary lapse of judgment! She’s my mom and your stepmother, after all. Could you please let her off? Even if Dad wakes up, he'll surely forgive her.

Anastasia darted a look at her in disgust. “It's useless to beg me. You guys never treatedas part of the family, and | always treat you guys as outsiders.” Erica suggested, “In that case, Anastasia, what do | need to do for you to let my mom off? How about this? I'll give you ten percent of my shares so that you let her off.” As someone who was greedy for profit, she thought Anastasia was the skind of person as she was.

Upon hearing Erica's words, Anastasia only found them an insult to her character. She looked at Erica with darkened eyes, saying, ‘I'm telling you, no amount of money can save the person who hurt my dad. | want them to pay the price and get their due punishment.

“You... Frightened by the look in Anastasia’s eyes, Erica took a step back. Immediately, she said between clenched teeth, “Even if you've got my mom arrested, my mom’s shares are now transferred to Alex. You'd better forget about taking away her shares!” Hearing Erica’s words, Anastasia only felt that all the former could see was the company’s shares. She's so blinded by greed that she’s got no sense of kinship to speak of. What a sad thing for him to. have such a daughter. “Just give him the shares. | don't care about it. Her lips curled into a sneer.

Erica was angry deep down. Is there anything else that can upset Anastasia? With that, Anastasia left with her purse. Elliot has probably arrived downstairs, she thought.

Erica returned to Alex's office with her purse. Seeing him standing before the French window and looking out the window, she happily walked over to him. ‘Alex, I've brought the agreement here.” At this moment, Alex was looking at the three Roll-Royces at the company’s entrance. He saw the man who stepped out of the car in the middle, who made him feel inexplicably oppressed even from a distance away.

“Elliot? Why is he here?” Erica's heart thumped when she saw the man downstairs. Shrouded in the last rays of the evening sun, he looked as handsas a god as he stood there. Just then, however, she saw Anastasia walking up to him; he walked toward Anastasia as well.

Putting his arm around Anastasia’s shoulders affectionately, he took her bag from her and escorted her into the car.

Eyes ablaze with jealousy, Erica ground her teeth in hatred.

Elliot seemed to sense the gaze from the third floor, for he turned his head and shot an icy look in the third floor’s. direction.

Alex held his breath; the look in Elliot's eyes made him feel threatened.

After Elliot's car drove away, Erica took the agreement out of her bag. “Here, Alex. Sign it.” Looking at the share transfer agreement, Alex felt incredibly torn. He couldn't decide whether to sign it or not. He still couldn’t make a guess at what exactly Elliot wanted to do with Tillman Constructions. If he obtained the 40 percent shares, he might be able to make smoney. If he didn’t sign the agreement now, he would be nothing.

Driven by self-interest, he lost his ability to reason, and his presence of mind flew out of the window. In the end, he stretched out his hand and signed his non the document, becoming a slave to his desire.

“Alex, congrats on becoming Tillman Constructions’ largest shareholder. I'll be depending on you from now on,” Erica said before coming over to give him a sweet and charming kiss.
