Chapter 223 She Has Now Become Anastasia’s Boss

Anastasia didn’t like answering such questions deep down, but she still had to out of politeness. “Yeah,

he’s busy.”

“During the family sports day, your husband said he’s working in finance. Most people in this line of work

are, like, super busy but super rich. What’s your job, Miss Tillman?” Clearly, she was idle chatting.

“I’m a stay-at-home mom.” Anastasia made up an answer, for she wasn’t a fan of background-check kind

of questions.

“Where do you guys stay, then?”

“The block over there.” Anastasia pointed randomly.

“Your husband’s car costs a lot, doesn’t it?”

“His company loaned it to him.”

The more this woman asked, the more she believed Anastasia wasn’t well off since Anastasia enrolled

her son in this kindergarten. Hence, she felt a little better, but when she sized Anastasia’s body and

features up, she felt absolutely envious and jealous, for she weighed about a hundred and thirty pounds.

Details of Anastasia’s skin could be visibly seen under the afternoon sun. Barely any pores were visible,

and her skin was crystal clear and fair—a typical beauty. She had long, silky, smooth hair, and her light

gold blouse and black pencil skirt accentuated her shapely figure. There was not a single flaw this

woman could find in Anastasia, and she couldn’t help bemoaning how unfair the heavens could be.

Just then, the gates opened, and Anastasia dashed to pick up Jared.

One more question from that lady, and I’d… Ugh!

After picking Jared up, the mother and son duo got into a cab and headed to the mall near home for

dinner.

It was around seven-thirty by the time they came out, and the sky had already gone dark. With that,

Anastasia hailed a cab home.

Many people were coming back from work when they arrived at the entrance of their community, and so

Anastasia decided they should get out of the cab and walk home. Just then, a guy exclaimed behind

them. “Miss Tillman?”

She looked back while holding Jared’s hand to find Oliver approaching them with a laptop bag on his

back.

“Oliver?” Anastasia was just as surprised to find him here.

“I live here. You too?” he asked with a smile.

“Yeah, I live in Block 8. What a coincidence!”

“I’m at Block 10.”

“Mommy, who is this?” Jared asked curiously.

“He’s the nice guy who returned my phone!” Anastasia smiled. She had brought it up to Jared over

dinner.

“Oh, it’s you, Mr. Nice Guy!” Jared smiled courteously.

“Have you just gotten off work?” Anastasia asked with concern.

“Yeah. I’m all alone anyway, so it doesn’t matter where I am.” With that, he tapped the fob to enter, then

held the door for the mother and son.

Oliver’s every action was exceptionally thoughtful and courteous. Right then, he was sizing the boy

Anastasia was holding hands with. “Your son sure is a handsome little guy!”

“Thanks!”

“Since we’re neighbors, you can come to me for any computer problems. I deal with computers for a

living, so I can surely solve your problem.”

“I’d really appreciate that! Let me treat you to a meal sometime.”

When they arrived at Block 8, Oliver waved them goodbye.

After returning home, Anastasia decided to go and take a look at some cars for the next two days. It was

a much more cost-effective solution than having to hail a cab wherever she went. With the savings she

could use, she could buy a two hundred thousand car with full payment.

It was a major decision for her. Hence, she decided to have a proper look at which car to get, which

became something she was super serious about for the next few days.

As Elliot was away on a business trip, he hadn’t attended the recent meetings. Five days passed with the

blink of an eye, and Felicia made an announcement that morning. The position of the Deputy Director

has been given to Alice.

Anastasia wasn’t at all surprised, for Alexia wasn’t Alice’s match at all. Alice had a wide connection, and

her family and friends were well off, too, for they helped the retails under Alice’s management earn tens

of millions of profit.

During the meeting, Alice glanced smugly at Anastasia. She had now become Anastasia’s boss, her

superior.
