Chapter 564
“I’ll hold you to that. Which day are you on?” Elliot began marking time like a hunter who had set the traps, sitting out, waiting for his game to fall into it.
At that, Anastasia hurriedly answered, “The first day…”
She had to lie no matter what.
“First day, huh,” drawled Elliot. “Six days to go then.”
She laughed up her sleeve as she buried herself in his arms, and Elliot lowered his head to kiss her cheek tyrannically yet dotingly.
“Alright, cut it out. Don’t stay up too late.” She left his arms, allowing him to return to his work, and as she left, he gave her a cheeky smack out of the blue, inaking her blush. Excuse me!
However, Elliot grinned, seemingly enjoying her reaction while she fled upstairs.
When morning came, Wanda hailed a cab to Tillman Constructions after having her breakfast at home, for she had assumed Anastasia would come bright and early,
“Sorry, I was wondering whether Miss Anastasia Tillman has arrived for work?” she asked after arriving at the guardhouse.
“And you are?”
“I’m looking for her.”
“Register, please.”
“I’m Wanda Garner.” Wanda gave her name.
AT
name
The guard happened to be Erica’s man and he grabbed his phone, entered the guardhouse, and called Erica after learning who he was speaking to. “Miss Erica, Wanda Garner has arrived.”
“Do as I’ve told you and bring her to me,” she ordered.
“Yes, ma’am. I’ll bring her right away.”
With that, he went out and said to Wanda, who had been waiting outside. “You’re looking for Miss Anastasia Tillman, you said? Follow me. I’ll take you there.”
Wanda was already so eager to meet up with Anastasia that she boarded the golf cart without hesitation, and it wasn’t until the guard had driven more than a mile that she began panicking “Sir, where are you taking me?”
“Miss Tillman’s up ahead. We’re almost there.” In the security guard’s defense, he didn’t know he was handing a human life to Erica on a silver platter since he believed that Erica just wanted to see her.
“Is Miss Anastasia’s office in this area?” a curious Wanda asked.
The guard naturally wouldn’t ask why Erica wanted to see this woman. His job was only to deliver, and he wouldn’t want to offend Erica unless he wanted to lose his job.
Erica and Patrick had long arrived and they watched the guard’escort Wanda to their building from the second floor window. “Miss Tillman’s inside. Go on in!” said the guard.
Wanda was bewildered that Anastasia’s office was located in such a place, for it looked obviously abandoned
After she entered the building, the door suddenly shut behind her, and she turned around in fright only to see a man-Erica’s birth father!
At last, she realized she had fallen into a trap. I’ve been brought to Erica!
Erica descended the stairs while sneering, “You’re one lucky woman, Mrs. Garner. Who’d have thought you could still live after falling into the sea.”
“You’re a monster, Erica Tillman. Do you really think I’ll die so easily?” condemned Wanda as she pointed to Erica. As Wanda’s focus was on Erica, it gave Patrick the perfect opportunity to grab her throat.
Unfortunately for Patrick, Wanda was strong, having gained her strength and muscles from doing house chores for years and she sank her teeth into his arm.
“Ahhhh!” he cried out in pain and kicked her away.
Seeing so, Erica immediately charged toward Wanda, who shoved Erica away in turn, making her way to the second floor. The main door was locked now; there was no way she could escape from there.
She set her sights on the windows straight away after arriving on the second floor.
“Dad, grab her. Don’t let her get away,” Erica shouted.
Patrick instantly pulled out the machete they had been setting aside for this and charged toward Wanda, scaring the wits out of her. Before she could register anything, a sharp pain came to her lower abdomen, and she fell back the next second and out of the window.
Though she had suffered an injury on her lower abdomen and also dropped from the second floor, she was still going strong, running toward Tillman Constructions while pressing on her bleeding abdomen.
