Chapter 102

Anastasia suddenly reached out and pressed the touch screen, answering the call for him. Elliot turned

to look at her, but she simply glared back with glee.

“Hello Elliot, I’m at the company now. Why aren’t you here yet?” Hayley’s cutesy voice rang out.

“I’m on my way,” Elliot answered in a low voice.

“All right, I’ll be waiting!”

“Sure.”

“You haven’t forgotten your gift for me, right? It’s your fault for not accompanying me last night,” said

Hayley in a spoiled manner.

Anastasia listened without any expressions while Elliot glanced at her, then told Hayley, “We’ll talk

when I get back to the company.”

With that, he hung up. Anastasia noticed how fast he had ended the call, so she suddenly sneered. “Is

there anything I shouldn’t be hearing?”

“We are just normal friends,” Elliot explained in a low voice. Ever since he found Hayley, he had

maintained a certain distance between them because he simply wanted to compensate her. Other than

that, he had no other thoughts of her.

Anastasia’s gaze went cold, disgust apparent in her eyes. “Don’t touch me ever again.”

Panic flitted across Elliot’s eyes. “Anastasia, I can’t change what happened in the past.”

“Everything Hayley touched is dirty to me.” This time, Anastasia said it loud and clear in person.

After her claim, Elliot’s expression fell. On the way back to the company, Anastasia ignored Elliot, and

the latter’s expression was also terrible. From the way it seemed, her words had probably struck a

nerve.

The car had just pulled up at the underground car park when Anastasia opened the door and left right

away. Elliot followed behind her, and when the elevator was about to close on him, Anastasia didn’t

hold the door open for him. She didn’t want to be on the same ride as him, but the man’s slender arms

still reached her. Sensing an object in the way, the elevator doors opened again, allowing Elliot to enter.

There was a pressuring aura about him, as if he were a sharp, brandished blade.

Anastasia crossed her arms and leaned against the wall. She could see Elliot’s complex and deep

gaze in the mirror, sharp as a crouching beast in the forest. His fiery eyes were trained on her.

Finally, the elevator door opened. Anastasia walked past him in order to leave, but the man held her

waist and spoke in her ear through gritted teeth. “No matter how dirty I am, you mustn’t despise me.”

Anastasia broke free from his grasp and left the elevator, snorting inside. I’ll still despise you, anyway.

So what?

When Elliot returned to his office, Hayley was already sitting on the couch waiting for him. She had

dressed up meticulously for the occasion, and she was indeed prettier than she used to be. Everything

she wore was branded, and she had spent a lot of effort on her makeup as well.

Regardless, Elliot could care less. A woman who could attract him would do better than look pretty on

the surface; she must also possess an innate charm that reached the depths of his heart.

“You’re here, Elliot.” Love and admiration spilled forth from Hayley’s gaze as she got up to welcome

him.

Elliot nodded, then made a call to Rey through the internal phone system. “Bring the present.”

The disappointment was evident in Hayley’s eyes. Why? Why didn’t he go in person to choose the

present for me? Why did he ask the assistant to do the work for him?

Soon, Rey walked in with a set of jewelry before handing it to Hayley. “Miss Seymour, is this to your

liking?”

Hayley opened the box to see a three-piece set, and the design and diamonds were absolutely

stunning. In the end, she pursed her lips and smiled. “I love it, thank you.”

Hayley looked back to see Elliot lost in thought, completely overlooking her existence.

“Elliot, I made reservations at a restaurant tonight. Let’s have dinner together!” Hayley took the initiative

to invite the man, but he raised an eyebrow and declined. “Hayley, I have an appointment at night. I

can’t cancel it.”

“But I really want to have a meal with you,” Hayley begged with a pleading look in her eyes.

“I have to meet a very important client tonight, so I can’t cancel. We’ll do it next time, all right?” Even

though the words sounded normal, when Elliot spoke them, his voice would carry an undeniable power

with it.

None would dare to defy his wishes.

Hayley bit her red lip, but she could only nod pitifully. “If you say so.”
