Chapter 264 I Will Do Something to You
Anastasia went back to the office after a quick pack-up and then called Elliot through the intercom.
“What time are you leaving? I’d like to see Jared.”
“Meet me down at the basement car park in ten minutes,” Elliot replied.
Ten minutes later, Anastasia moved the two suitcases from her car into Elliot’s trunk. Rey, the assistant, now became Rey, the chauffeur, driving Elliot and Anastasia back to Elliot’s place as the two sat in the back seat.
Anastasia was still reeling at the fact that she had to stay with Elliot for some time while she watched the view outside the window. Alas, what to do when life throws you a curveball?
“Take a good rest while you’re at my place,” Elliot said, the joy beneath his fathomless eyes unconcealable.
However, Anastasia still felt bad for troubling him. “Sorry for intruding, President Presgrave.”
“Not at all.” Elliot’s face relaxed as he thought, How can you call this intruding?! He’d die to have her move in with him.
In actuality, he deliberately made things sound more severe than they actually were. Yes, Lawrence’s men were digging into Francis’s relationship with his family, but Lawrence himself was in deep sh*t right now, for he was pulling every possible connection to remove himself from a few women-missing-from-nightclub cases.
And if Anastasia hadn’t spotted the spotter so coincidentally, he wouldn’t be able to take her home so easily.
Anastasia gradually spaced out as she continued to watch the view outside the window. Then, when her current situation popped back into her head, she looked over to Elliot to find he was looking out the window and musing as well. Sigh, his handsome side profile was a sight to behold as well. After gawking for a few seconds, she looked away with a flushed face.
Elliot’s mansion occupied the city’s best terrain, for it was located near the sea and the hills. Plus, it was built on high grounds, so it was the perfect spot to watch the stars or view the cityscape. The entire mansion took up nearly half the hill, and it was designed by a renowned architect as well.
Anastasia had the privilege of coming once before, but she left in a hurry. This time, she managed to admire the view along the journey to the top of the hill. Amidst late fall, the mansion looked like a crouching gray giant.
Right as Anastasia got out of the car, she heard a familiar voice coming from the yard—it was Jared! Pleasantly surprised, she followed the voice to a garden, and through it, she found Jared playing soccer with two bodyguards on the field.
