Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 311

Chapter 311 His Burning Gaze

“It’s the annual board meeting. It is of the utmost importance, so do take a day off and attend,” Francis said solemnly.

Since she didn’t have much planned for the day as well, Anastasia called Felicia to request a day off before driving over to Francis’ company.

At around 10:00AM, she entered the conference room that was located in his company to join the rest of the attendees. Alex was seated next to her for the board meeting and although he was of a young age, all the directors were full of praise for him as he was indeed capable and had made significant contributions to the company.

He fought for a place on the board with his capabilities, but his attention today was captured by Anastasia. She wore a white shirt with a black skirt, which was both simple and elegant. With her long hair draped behind her, she looked stunning.

Anastasia was merely playing the role of an audience at the meeting as she listened to her father’s presentation of their latest project. Elliot’s name came to mind as she listened since this project was obtained with his assistance.

Meanwhile, Elliot was with Rey in the office on the eighth floor of Bourgeois Jewelry Atelier. He dialed Anastasia’s office number as soon as he sat down, but it went unanswered.

What is she doing?

Then, he took out his phone and dialed her number, which went unanswered as well. He was starting to become annoyed. This woman is not picking up my call now?

“Check to see whether Anastasia is in her office,” he instructed Rey while sitting in front of a stack of documents.

Rey immediately went straight to the Department of Design and after enquiring Anastasia’s assistant, Grace, he learned that Anastasia had taken a day off.

He relayed this information to Elliot. With that, Elliot immediately gave Felicia a call to ask about this.

“Anastasia said she’ll be going to her father’s company,” she answered honestly.

Hearing that, Elliot’s face darkened because he remembered Alex, who was in Tillman Constructions too.
