Chapter 371 Are You Alright, President Presgrave?

As soon as Grace left, Anastasia looked at Elliot as the man stood in front of her. Even though she tried

hard to control her expression, she couldn’t contain the bitterness that spread in her heart.

Suddenly, Elliot let out a cough, which caused Rey to remind him, “President Presgrave, you forgot to

take your medicine this morning.”

Anastasia’s gaze immediately locked on Elliot. For some reason, after two days of not seeing him, she

felt that he had lost weight and his face had paled. Did he catch a cold?

He shook his head. When he looked at her, she quickly turned away, not wanting him to think that she

was worried.

“I’m here to make a statement too,” uttered Elliot in a low voice.

“Okay. Go ahead!” After saying that, Anastasia turned around and wanted to leave.

Rey quickly took the opportunity to offer, “Miss Tillman, let me send you off.”

As she walked toward her car, he followed suit and said, “Please be gentle with President Presgrave.

He’s sick.”

“Anyone can fall sick. Isn’t that normal?” Anastasia turned to him.

“No, President Presgrave is suffering from a severe cold and a heart problem this time. Ever since he

returned from saving you that day, he hasn’t slept for two days. He started coughing last night and he

doesn’t look well either. After a check-up, they discovered a problem with his cardiac regulation,”

explained Rey.

As she tightened her grip on the door handle, she uttered, “Tell him to take his medication on time!”

“Sure. Drive safely, Miss Tillman.” Rey had mentioned everything that he had to say.

Once Anastasia left the police station, she drove to her father’s company. Throughout the drive, all she

could think of was Elliot’s pale face. He’s an adult! How can he forget to take his medication? Even my

son can remember such an easy task.

When Anastasia arrived at Tillman Constructions, she entered her father’s office. There were a few key

personnel in a meeting with him as he instructed her to take a seat and sit in for the meeting.

She tried her best to understand their conversation. However, she wasn’t familiar with the construction

industry at all, so she had a hard time comprehending the minutes of their meeting.

At lunchtime, Alex came. The moment he saw Anastasia, he couldn’t help but feel butterflies in his

stomach like he usually did.

Knowing that Anastasia and Elliot would never end up together, Francis eagerly attempted to

matchmake Alex with his daughter again.

Alex was a sensitive person, so he was ecstatic when he heard from Francis that he had a chance to

woo her again!

Though he didn’t know why Anastasia had broken up with Elliot, it was still an ending that he

anticipated!

“Anastasia, I’ll let Alex accompany you in the afternoon while I meet some friends,” said Francis to

Anastasia.

She nodded in response. After experiencing the event that followed after picking up her son last time,

Alex intentionally brought her for a tour of one of the departments. As expected, when Anastasia

realized it was time to pick her son up from school, they didn’t have time to finish the tour.

“I should leave to pick Jared up now. Can you send me to his school, Alex?”

“Of course!” exclaimed Alex.

Then, he drove her to pick her son up where he silently observed her on the way there. He noticed how

she looked gloomy throughout the car ride. It was obvious that she was having a rough time in her

relationship.

When they arrived at the school, Anastasia rushed out of the car to meet Jared and left her phone in

the car.

Two minutes after she left, her phone rang. Alex grabbed her phone and saw Elliot’s name on the

screen. He picked it up intentionally and said, “Hello, President Presgrave? I’m sorry to inform you that

Anastasia’s phone isn’t with her.”

“Who are you?” Elliot’s voice sounded chilly.

“I’m Alex Hunter. We’ve met before, President Presgrave.”

“Where is she?” an unhappy Elliot questioned.

“She’s gone to pick Jared up, and I’m waiting for her at the school gates. Is there something you want

to tell her? I’ll pass on the message for you.”

“It’s fine.”After saying that, Elliot hung up the call.

Hearing that, Alex smirked. His purpose was to create a false impression that he was close with

Anastasia so that Elliot would be jealous and disappointed in her.



Little did he know that this phone call was more than just a disappointment to Elliot.

Elliot, who was sitting in Rey’s car, suddenly felt suffocated and started coughing violently. Seeing that,

Rey quickly parked his car by the roadside and opened the backseat door while asking, “President

Presgrave, are you alright?”
