Chapter 551
Night of Destiny
âTheyâre my dadâs clients. Shouldnât I be treating them well?â Anastasia was unsure of what she should
do.
âThereâs no need for that since all of them are more than happy to continue working with your fatherâs
company.â Elliot curled his lips into a smile.
Anastasia clearly sensed the arrogance in his tone. After all, this man was the reason these people were
here to seek a collaboration with Tillman Constructions.
Currently, the conference room was filled to the brim with all these people. As Anastasia sat in the
foremost seat with Elliot by her side, each of the participants came up to her and introduced themselves
briefly before they proceeded to discuss with the employees regarding their respective projects, such as
the supply of materials and conditions for working together in the future.
Without lifting a finger, Anastasia watched the company come back to life. It was all thanks to Elliot that
the company that was on the brink of
bankruptcy was so full of vitality right now.
âMiss Tillman, are you satisfied with my pricing? Youâd be pleased to know this is the highest price weâve
ever offered to any company.â
Since the man had already said this much, Anastasia nodded with a faint smile. âI am very satisfied.â
âMiss Tillman, I still have several properties under construction. Iâll be using your company for the
building materials.â
âMiss Tillman, we will keep a close eye on supplying Tillman Constructions. As long as your company is
in urgent need of raw materials, we will be the first to send them.â
Anastasia was all smiles as she listened to all these prominent figures. The managers of Tillman
Constructions were no exception, as their smiles were even wider than that of Anastasiaâs. They knew
the company was not only saved but would continue to grow even bigger from now on.
âIâll leave the rest to you all.â Elliot had been patient in listening to all of them before he stood up and took
Anastasiaâs hand. âLetâs go take a break.â
Anastasia was speechless at what Elliot suggested, as she felt it was inappropriate for her to take a
break when the company was having such an important meeting. Yet, the man continued to drag her out
of the conference room without an explanation. âI am the president here, so I
should be staying with them inside, she said begrudgingly.
âWe canât waste time here, as we still have a lot to do,â Elliot replied.
When Anastasia saw they were heading to the finance department, she immediately. realized it was time
to recover the money Alex had embezzled from the company.
Although there were still Alexâs men in the department, each and every one of them wore a stern
expression at the moment and dared not even take a deep breath. âMiss Tillman, do you have business
with us?â
âAlex had made a transfer of 30 million. I want to see the records of that transfer.â
One of the menâs eyes lit up; that man was Alexâs only accomplice here. Alex would not let everyone
know about the transfer with a sum that huge. Thus, he was the sole accomplice.
âYou there, come here.â For someone as astute as Elliot, he managed to identify the accomplice with just
one look.
âPresident Presgrave⦠Can I help you?â
âIf you sort out all the evidence of Alexâs embezzlement, I will spare you for your wrongdoings,â Elliot
said, his tone cold and hostile.
The employee in question immediately had his face grow white in fear. âPresident Hunter did indeed ask
me to make a false account, but that money⦠that money is already in an overseas account and is
completely untraceable. Itâs impossible to get that money back.â
âI just need you to get the evidence ready.â Saying that, Elliot patted Anastasia
on her shoulder. âIâll go make a phone call. He then left after Anastasia nodded in acknowledgment..
After Elliot left, Alexâs accomplice immediately came over to Anastasia with his fear clear as day. âMiss
Tillman, Iâm sorry. President Hunter forced me to do this. I had to do it for my familyâ¦
âHow much did you take?â Anastasia did not believe the man in front of her was innocent.
âI⦠only took a millionâ¦â The man hung his head sheepishly. âIâll return the money to the company and
sort out the evidence at once. So, Miss Tillman, please spare me. Donât send me to jail.â
âThat will depend on whether your atonement is good enough. Should you still have something youâre
not telling us. I guarantee you will be going down with Alex,â said Anastasia resoundingly with her eyes
clear and cold.
Overwhelmed with fear and awe, the employee hurriedly said, âMiss Tillman, 1 am also a coward by
nature, which is why Iâve recorded the conversation between me and President Hunter. Iâll send the
recording to you along with the evidence of his embezzlement.â
