Chapter 258 Elliot Will Join Us
“So, how will you repay Mr. Presgrave’s kindness?” Jared inquired out of curiosity.
“Erm… I-I need some time to think about it.”
“Why don’t you marry Mr. Presgrave, Mommy? You can be his wife and take care of him,” Jared suggested loudly.
In a hurry, Anastasia rushed over to cover Jared’s mouth, but she heard Francis chuckling. Playing along with his grandson, Francis joked, “Jared is right.”
Rey couldn’t help but chime in, “President Presgrave actually needs someone to take care of him.”
On the contrary, Alex stood aside with a stiff smile because he wasn’t having any of it.
Anastasia blushed in crimson as she pulled her son over and uttered, “You shouldn’t talk nonsense, Jared.”
When Elliot’s gaze was locked on Anastasia, his eyes were dark. He looked like a wild beast wanting to hunt her down.
Under broad daylight, Anastasia was so flustered that her face turned red. She quickly felt shy because her father was also there.
Seeing that his mom’s face had turned red, Jared quickly shut up.
“Young Master Presgrave, if you’re not in a hurry to head back, stay back for lunch with us!” Francis offered.
“Sure.” Elliot nodded.
Alex’s eyes darkened at that. He was planning to get close to Anastasia through the lunch gathering later, but Elliot came out of nowhere and disrupted all his initial plans.
Coming from an ordinary family, Alex desperately wanted to improve himself. He didn’t want to live at the bottom of the hierarchy as his parents did. However, with his connections and ability, it was difficult for him to break out of the bottom level of the social hierarchy.
