Chapter 262 Lawrence Wants to Get Back at My Dad
“Anastasia, if you’ve encountered any trouble at work, don’t hesitate to tell Elliot. Go ahead and bother him. If he doesn’t deal with it, tell me. I’ll give him a piece of my mind.” Nigel was all enthusiastic when it came to giving his cousin trouble.
Anastasia chuckled in response. “That won’t be necessary. My projects won’t escalate to his level.”
“I’m not just talking about your projects. You have colleagues too. Just have Elliot fire whoever you despise.” He didn’t want her to have a hard time at work.
“Please, Nigel. The office is a place for work, not for me to bully people.” Anastasia waved her hand.
Just then, her phone rang, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw the caller ID—it was Elliot.
“Why aren’t you answering? Who is it?”
“President Presgrave.” Anastasia didn’t hide it from Nigel.
“Give it to me. I’ll answer it.” With that, he grabbed her phone.
“Hey. Nigel… No nonsense, please!” Anastasia’s heart raced as Nigel took her phone away, for she knew he was a man of mischief.
However, it wouldn’t be Nigel if he didn’t cause a little bit of trouble. “Hey, Elliot. Anastasia can’t come to the phone right now. Just talk to me.”
“Why are you two together?” Elliot asked monotonously.
Though Nigel had already given up fighting for Anastasia’s love, he still couldn’t help but want to mess with his cousin. “Why? Are you scared that I’ll take her for myself?” He chuckled.
“Hand the phone to her. This is important.” Elliot wasn’t in the mood to joke.
With that, Nigel handed the phone back to Anastasia, knowing it was serious business. “He wants to talk to you!”
After taking the phone, she got up and went aside. “Hello?”
“Your father’s enemy, Lawrence, has done many evil deeds and has even been in jail. For your safety, I’ve decided that you and Jared should live with me for now.” Elliot cut to the case.
