Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226 Hostile Encounter

How could it be Elliot?

Anastasia was dumbfounded for a few seconds. Then, she immediately frowned. “Why are you here?”

“I missed Jared, so I’m here to see him.” The man expressed that he went to her house for her son.

Anastasia blocked his way. “My son is asleep. Try again next time!”

Elliot watched as she blocked the door, his beautiful eyes narrowing. “You’re mad just because I had a meal with Hayley?”

Immediately, Anastasia widened her eyes and glared at him, as if she had taken a huge hit. “Angry? Who? You can have meals with whoever you like, so what right do I have to be mad at you? I’m nobody to you.”

Just then, a man’s voice came from the master bedroom. “Anastasia, do you have a screwdriver in your house? Can I borrow it?”

Those words caused the man at the entrance to darken his expression. There’s another man in this woman’s house?

“You’re hiding a man in your house?” Elliot stared at her, his gaze sharp.

Anastasia finally remembered that Oliver was fixing her computer. After some quick thinking, she raised her eyebrow on purpose. “President Presgrave, it’s not the best time for me to be seeing guests, so please leave.”

The man narrowed his eyes and stared at her with an unfriendly gaze. Then, he pushed her out of his path and strode right in.

“Hey, Elliot—”

Elliot walked briskly to the door of the master bedroom and saw a man crouching and working on the computer tower. Oliver was disassembling the motherboard when he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, as if someone were staring at him.

In the end, he couldn’t help but turn around to look. A tall and large man was standing at the door, staring at him with a frightening gaze.

Oliver was startled and accidentally ran his palm against a sharp corner of the computer tower. A bleeding wound surfaced in his hand.
