Elliot said that the main reason for relocating the atelier was to make it easier for him to see her.
Anastasia’s face reddened under his gaze. To distract herself, she tapped her finger on the teacup that
she was holding. “What’s so special about seeing me?” she asked.
Why does Elliot want to see me for no reason?
“Apart from work, you are the most important thing to me every day since I have met you,” Elliot
responded as he glanced into her eyes. Although he was not good at loving someone, the way he
communicated his love was direct and didn’t beat around the bush.
But his love was too overwhelming, which caused her a lot of pressure and trouble.
“I’m not worth it.” Anastasia stroked her long hair as she said. Under the afternoon sunlight, her heated
cheeks exuded a charming aura and was seemingly attractive.
He supported his forehead with his palm and admired her as if he were admiring a masterpiece-every
scowl and smile of hers, every microexpression of hers, he was taking into his eyes and remembering
in his heart.
How could such a woman exist in this world and make me madly fall in love? In the face of loving her,
my pride and dignity have become insignificant.
Now that she was under his gaze, Anastasia was a little flustered and covered her face in
embarrassment before she begged, “Please don’t look at me like this. I can’t take it.”
Elliot burst out laughing as he teased, “You can’t take it? What if I spend the rest of my life staring at
you?”
“Who would want to be stared at by you for the rest of their life?” Anastasia retorted, but her eyes were
filled with shyness.
“If you don’t want me to look at you, then who do you want to be stared at?” he jealously asked and
added, “By Alex Hunter?”
Anastasia had no idea where this man’s jealousy came from. She had nothing to do with Alex, so how
could Elliot feel jealous all the time?
“I don’t have anything to do with Mr. Hunter. We’re just friends,” she explained inexplicably.
“I don’t care. In short, I don’t want you to get too close to him,” Elliot commanded as he squinted his
upturned eyes.
Only men understood the mentality of their peers. Even if Anastasia hadn’t noticed it lately, he could
see through Alex’s dirty thoughts about her at a glance.
Anastasia blinked her eyes a few times after she heard him. She could only say that this man was too
domineering.
When the food arrived, Elliot had been passionately serving the food to her to make up for what
angered her for the past two days. It was also because she had appeared to have lost some weight.
If another man served her food, she would definitely reject it. Why didn’t I feel that way when Elliot
served me the food? she wondered.
After Anastasia returned to the office, she went to the bathroom and overheard the staff discussing the
company’s relocation while she was sitting inside the toilet cubicle.
*Oh my goodness! Great, we can now go to work in the Presgrave Corporation where all the high-paid
financial tycoons are! That is where the elite gathers,” said one of the staff.
Right then, Elliot’s words appeared in her mind. “I made this decision just to see you conveniently.”
If this was any other woman who learned that Elliot went to such lengths to see her, I guess she would
be madly in love with him.
Meanwhile, in Hogland, Hayley was sitting in a high-end hospital’s office with a translator standing
beside her.
In front of Hayley were the successful cases of plastic surgery in the hospital as well as the plastic
surgical projects that they were best at. The doctor in charge asked her to pick one that she desired.
Hayley glanced at these beautiful faces and all of them looked like masterpieces created by God.
However, she shook her head and took a photo from her bag, which she handed to the doctor. “I want
this face,” she declared.
The doctor reached out and took the photo. The woman in the photo had perfect bones and she was a
natural beauty. Her face was indeed more perfect than any cosmetic product.
“It doesn’t need to be identical; even a fifty percent match will do, but I would like to have her eyes,”
Hayley demanded.
The translator on the side promptly translated her words. The doctor examined the woman’s face
before he turned to Hayley and paused for a while before he continued, “The operation is quite risky.
We need to work on several aspects of your face. Are you sure you want to do it?”
