âWhat are you afraid of? Iâm not ashamed.â Elliot didnât seem to mind and he wanted everyone to see it!
Anastasia simply allowed him to do what he wanted. After all, she had to admit that he was quite brazen.
âAre you tired? Would you like a massage from your husband?â he asked in a hushed tone.
âI'm fine! | enjoy working, she answered as she shifted her head to look at him with eyes that sparkled with enthusiasm.
Elliot was content when he saw how happy she was. Then, he acknowledged, âYou can work for as long as you wish.. Just donât exert yourself.â
Anastasia scrunched up her nose. playfully and replied, âI know, | know! Donât worry about me.â
He then released her and took two steps back before checking her from head to toe.
She felt a little bashful when he observed her in this manner because it made her feel like he was admiring a piece of art. âWhat are you looking at?â
This made him grin before he said, âYour outfit is making me have wild thoughts.â
She immediately narrowed her gaze at him. âDo not try anything silly at the office.â
When Elliot heard this, he couldnât help but laugh out loud. âDoes this mean | can do whatever | want when we get home?â
Anastasia didnât know what to say, so she gave him a shy, angry look, but she was still happy in her heart that he wanted her so much. Then, she said in a low voice, âWe'll see.â
âDid Mason look for you?â Elliot inquired as he drew a chair for himself and took a seat before he gracefully crossed his long and slender legs.
Only then did Anastasia realize the reason for his visit. Was he jealous?
How could someone be so easily jealous?
âYeah, we had a little chat,â she said truthfully.
When he heard this, his eyes lit up with jealousy. âWhat did you two discuss?â
âHe wanted my help to secure an endorsement contract for his sister. | agreed.â
Elliot blinked when he heard this. âI see.â
Then, Anastasia got up, closed the shutters, walked over to him, and sat on his lap.
Even though he enjoyed that she took the initiative, it caught him by surprise.
She cradled his face in her hands as she bent her head to plant a kiss on his lips. She had learned certain skills from him and now, she was going to give him a taste of his own medicine by using those techniques on him.
Elliot enjoyed her kissing him and placed his arms around her waist, She withdrew just as he was going to get more and she whispered in his ears, âYou shouldn't be jealous anymore, honey. Other than you, there is no one else in my heart.â
This caught him off guard and he narrowed his eyes in affectionate response to her gaze. Then, he wrapped his arms tightly around her and said, âAlright, Iâm not jealous. | won't be jealous any longer.â
Just as Anastasia was about to move away from his lap, he quickly restrained her. âAre you leaving now after teasing me?â
Anastasiaâs cheeks were still flushed from initiating the kiss, but the man won't release his grip.
In the next instant, he grasped the back of her head and gave her a passionate kiss.
Elliot's affections for her grew stronger over time.
At that moment, Grace wanted to give Anastasia some important documents, so she rushed in without knocking.
She was shocked by what she saw and her face blushed due to her being shy, which resulted in her fleeing the scene.
The scene inside the room was not appropriate for young folks!
Anastasia pushed the man away and Elliot left with a satisfied look..
When Grace returned, Anastasia smiled and puckered her lips. âDo not tell anyone what happened just now.â
Grace, of course, didnât dare! However, it looked like she had changed her mind about Anastasia, who had become more gutsy.
â| won't dare to. Donât worry, President Tillman,â Grace answered thoughtfully.
At the hospital, Sophia walked out to get some fruits for her dad. She had just returned and was making her way toward the entrance of the ward when she heard her fatherâs anxious voice coming through the open door. âPlease donât tell Sophia anything about this. Do not land her in such stress.â
âThe bank has been pressuring us daily, though. If you do not repay them, you will have no other option. We need to think of something!â Tiana sighed.
âWe'll see what it takes. If thereâs nothing else | can do, I'll just go to jail for two years,â Drake commented.
âYou canât do that. What should | do when youâre gone? The York Family was interested in our Sophia and is willing to pay off your debts. Why donât we just let Sophia...â
