My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 492

Chapter 492

Hayley suddenly thought of Francis. She doubted Anastasia and Elliot would proceed with the engagement if Francis were to get into an accident.

But what could she do to create an ‘accident? Naomi and Erica would definitely not do it. After all, Francis was their cash cow. It seemed like Alex was the only one who could do it.

Hayley also knew that Alex was anxious. Francis had been training Anastasia to take over Tillman Constructions and as soon as she learned to manage the company, it was only a matter of time before the company ultimately belonged to her.

Now that Anastasia and Elliot were getting engaged, and she had Elliot the business genius to back her up, Alex served no purpose being by Anastasia’s side.

There was still half a month before the engagement, which meant there was enough time for Hayley to arrange what she needed to. As she thought about this, a cruel glint appeared in her eyes.

Alex was slightly tired when he finally came back during the wee hours. As there were some problems with the company’s financial inventory, he had to stay behind until the issue was resolved before he could leave.

“Alex, you’re home.” Hayley immediately went over and hugged him. She then stood on her tiptoes to kiss him. “I have warmed up some noodles for you. Come have some.”

Instead, the man went to sit on the sofa. “Bring me a glass of beer,” he told her.

And so, Hayley immediately went and opened a can of beer for him. She then sat next to him and looked at him. “Alex, are you tired from work?” she asked with a worried expression on her face. “Erica told me that Anastasia is getting engaged to Elliot. I reckon Anastasia might be able to take over her father’s company at any time.”

Alex abruptly raised his head in shock. “When was this?”

“On Christmas Eve.”

He started to feel anxious then. The current situation was becoming more and more unfavorable for his plans against Tillman Constructions.

“Alex, Elliot will be Francis’ son-in-law if he were to get engaged to Anastasia. There is a possibility that Francis may hand the company over to Elliot. Do you think you can continue to keep your position as the financial manager when the time comes?” Hayley was instilling fear into Alex at that point.

Alex knew full well how much Elliot hated him because of how he used to cling to Anastasia without knowing his place. This could be the sole reason Elliot would sack him from the company if Tillman Constructions ever fell into Elliot’s hands.
