Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102

Anastasia suddenly reached out and pressed the touch screen, answering the call for him. Elliot turned to look at her, but she simply glared back with glee.

“Hello Elliot, I’m at the company now. Why aren’t you here yet?” Hayley’s cutesy voice rang out.

“I’m on my way,” Elliot answered in a low voice.

“All right, I’ll be waiting!”

“Sure.”

“You haven’t forgotten your gift for me, right? It’s your fault for not accompanying me last night,” said Hayley in a spoiled manner.

Anastasia listened without any expressions while Elliot glanced at her, then told Hayley, “We’ll talk when I get back to the company.”

With that, he hung up. Anastasia noticed how fast he had ended the call, so she suddenly sneered. “Is there anything I shouldn’t be hearing?”

“We are just normal friends,” Elliot explained in a low voice. Ever since he found Hayley, he had maintained a certain distance between them because he simply wanted to compensate her. Other than that, he had no other thoughts of her.

Anastasia’s gaze went cold, disgust apparent in her eyes. “Don’t touch me ever again.”

Panic flitted across Elliot’s eyes. “Anastasia, I can’t change what happened in the past.”

“Everything Hayley touched is dirty to me.” This time, Anastasia said it loud and clear in person.

After her claim, Elliot’s expression fell. On the way back to the company, Anastasia ignored Elliot, and the latter’s expression was also terrible. From the way it seemed, her words had probably struck a nerve.

The car had just pulled up at the underground car park when Anastasia opened the door and left right away. Elliot followed behind her, and when the elevator was about to close on him, Anastasia didn’t hold the door open for him. She didn’t want to be on the same ride as him, but the man’s slender arms still reached her. Sensing an object in the way, the elevator doors opened again, allowing Elliot to enter. There was a pressuring aura about him, as if he were a sharp, brandished blade.
