Chapter 381
As suchAl uld only return to the office with Anastasia as he wondered why the lady wouldn’t want to conue miting until the rain stopped at the café. At the same time, Anastasia set her leves on the rain outside the window, knowing that the road ahead of them was barely visible no matter how fast the windscreen wipers were working. Therefore, she believed it would take Elliot about half an hour before he arrived at her father’s company. At the thought of she sent him a text message and told him to be careful. “Keep a cool head, Elliot. It’s pouring víly now, and it’s too dangerous to drive.’
However, Anastasia’s message was met with silence as the man didn’t respond. Therefore, she couldn’t help but feel concerned about his safety while reprimanding him deep down for making her worried. You’re sick, Elliot, so why won’t you stay put and rest instead?
A few moments later, both of them arrived at Tillman Construction, whereupon Anastasia told Alex to return to the office and waited in the lobby. In the meantime, Alex could guess who she was waiting for as he wondered whether Elliot was really coming to meet her despite the heavy
rain. After all, he would gloat over Elliot’s misery if something ever happened to him on the way.
Meanwhile, Anastasia looked outside the window anxiously as she didn’t see any car in sight. Nevertheless, she saw a black sedan coming her way in the rain fifteen minutes later. As the view slowly became clearer, Anastasia was able to identify Elliot’s Rolls-Royce Phantom and heaved a sigh of relief until she realized there was a truck parked in the lobby not long after it was unloaded. Because of that, Elliot couldn’t drive into the building and had no way of entering the lobby without getting wet.
Therefore, Anastasia anxiously looked around for the driver to get him to move the truck away, only to see the headlights of the man’s car going out in the rain. Then, Elliot ran toward the building without even taking an umbrella with him, putting Anastasia on edge as she desperately scurried through the door and was greeted by the man’s drenched appearance. At the same time, Elliot was happy to see her as she had been anxiously waiting for him despite his messy look.
“Why did you come here? Don’t you know it’s pouring outside?” Anastasia lectured the man.
However, Elliot reacted with a smile, looking at her with a tender expression on his face as water trickled down his hair. “Even if it puts my life at risk, I’ll do anything just to see you.”
Anastasia then took some tissue paper from her purse and wiped the man’s wet hair, as well as the water droplets on his shoulder. Suddenly, she felt the man’s arm wrapped around her waist shortly before she found herself in his tight embrace.
You…” Anastasia angrily looked up at Elliot.
“After all the mean things you said to me, you still can’t deny that you care about me.” Elliot fixed his eyes on her.
“I don’t.” She looked away guiltily.
“You do.” He planted a kiss on the lady’s forehead, not caring if there were people around them…,
On the other hand, Alex was watching behind a pillar with his eyes fixed on the man and the woman during their lovey-dovey interaction in the lobby, clenching his fists without any idea that

he was also being watched by someone from behind him.

It turned out that Erica had accidentally run into Alex and caught his jealous look when he was peeking at Elliot and Anastasia. Thus, she quickly approached Alex and seized his arm, stunning him as she dragged him to the stairs just next to them.
, Upon closing the door behind her, Erica chuckled glacially and said, “You seem jealous, Mr.
Hunter, but do you think my sister would even bother to look at someone like you? She is a snob who only has eyes for a rich and handsome man like Elliot.”
“What are you talking about, Miss Erica? I don’t quite follow.” Alex refused to admit his feelings.
However, Erica had witnessed his earlier reaction. She replied, “You saw just how sweet my older sister and Elliot were back there, didn’t you? However, you and I both know that you can never take Anastasia away from Elliot.”
Hearing the lady’s words, Alex was jealous yet helpless. After all, he had no choice but to admit Anastasia’s feelings for Elliot, judging from the sympathy she was showing him for meeting her in the rain despite refusing to pick up his call in the café earlier.
What else can I call that if not love?
Erica suddenly approached the man closer, seizing his arm while giving him a coy look. “Anastasia and I are both sisters from the Tillmans, so why don’t you consider dating me, Mr. Hunter? After all, I think I can be a good girlfriend just as much as my sister could be.”
“Let’s keep this civil, Miss Erica.” Alex shivered in that instant
Nevertheless, Erica didn’t take her hand off Alex. Instead, she wrapped her arms around his neck in a seductive manner while resting her face on his shoulder. “My sister may not know how to appreciate you, Mr. Hunter, but I’m not like her. To me, you’re simply the kind of man I admire and look up to.”
