Chapter 395 Keep an Eye on Her
“Do you want me to help you out?” Elliot wanted to take over for Anastasia.
“No, thanks.” She had to inspect it herself.
“In that case, you should take a short break.”
“I’m good.” Anastasia’s eyes were a little bloodshot, but she wasn’t in the mood to take a break.
“You’ll wear your eyes out.” Elliot’s heart broke as he watched from the side.
“I have to finish watching it all.” At that, she forced herself to close her eyes and take a break. While she rubbed her temples, she suddenly felt a big, warm palm massaging her neck lightly. It felt super relaxing.
Meanwhile, Alice snuck a peek outside to find Elliot massaging Anastasia’s neck, causing her to feel jealous yet horrified.
She had clearly underestimated Anastasia and Elliot’s relationship. More than that, she feared that they’d discover her crimes.
After returning to her office, she unlocked her phone and grew nervous upon seeing the five hundred thousand transferred into her account earlier that day.
Anastasia returned to work after taking a short break. Meanwhile, Elliot took a sip from her coffee and suddenly thought of something. With that, he took his phone and headed out.
He didn’t affect her progress, but it didn’t mean he didn’t have other ways of investigating.
When he came back in, Anastasia was still fixing her eyes on the laptop screen. However, her brows suddenly locked into a deep furrow upon seeing someone coming out of her office.
Alice had stayed in her office for less than two minutes before coming out. However, when she left, she looked visibly guilt-ridden.
At that, Anastasia rewound and scrutinized Alice’s expression. Then, she saved this portion of the footage before continuing her search.
Time had unknowingly come to 7.00PM, and Anastasia already had two cups of coffee at this point. Meanwhile, Elliot never looked away from her this whole time either. He finally grabbed her hand when he saw that her eyes were bloodshot and that she was refusing dinner.
“Dinner first, and you can continue your search later.”
