Chapter 367 Can’t Come Over for Lunch
The next morning, Anastasia applied for time off for her son and called Felicia. When Felicia heard that she was going to take three months off, she was shocked.
“Did you tell President Presgrave about this?” Deep down, Felicia felt that it wasn’t in her power to approve Anastasia’s leave.
“You can discuss it with him, but if he doesn’t agree, I will resign from the job.”
“Okay. I’ll ask him,” answered Felicia.
Ten minutes later, Felicia returned the call. “President Presgrave has approved your request and will offer you three months of paid leave, but I’m going to miss you so much.”
“Thanks.” Anastasia thought she would miss Felicia a lot too.
“Let’s keep in touch!”
“Sure. Thanks for taking care of me all this while, Felicia,” said Anastasia thankfully.
“Don’t say that. I’m aware that the reason President Presgrave acquired QR Group isn’t that he sees the growth potential in us; he only did it because of you. Without you, Bourgeois wouldn’t have been so lucky.” Felicia had seen through everything.
Anastasia’s heart twitched at that, so she asked Felicia, “Do you know who negotiated with the client I went to visit yesterday?”
It was because her kidnapper seemed to expect her to be there, and it felt like she had stepped into a trap.
Felicia didn’t know about the kidnapping incident, so she didn’t think much about it as she answered, “Aliona was the one who negotiated with the client. She was supposed to go and meet them, but the client specified that they wanted to see you, so I sent you there instead.”
Aliona?
Is she anyhow related to the kidnapping case? Anastasia furrowed her brows and fell into deep thought.
She couldn’t figure out if Aliona was related to Riley or the client, but why was the client assigned to Aliona first and passed on to her eventually?
“Thanks, Felicia. Let’s meet again soon.”
“Sure!” Felicia replied with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Anastasia glanced at the time. It was time to prepare lunch for her son.
However, there was nothing in the fridge, so she turned to Jared. “Jared, come grocery shopping with me.”
