Chapter 439 Nowhere to Go
As Anastasia was leaning against the glass display and admiring his collection, she felt a warm sensation behind her. When she turned around, she was met with the man’s intense stare.
The fire within his gaze was unmistakable.
She could understand what Elliot, as a normal twenty-eight-year-old man, was thinking of at the moment.
However, his phone rang unexpectedly. He took a look at the screen and saw the name that disgusted him.
The call was from Hayley.
Anastasia saw it too, and she immediately raised her head and wanted to ask if he would answer the call.
However, Elliot rejected the call and blocked Hayley’s number.
Anastasia knew that, despite their previous one-night stand, Hayley’s act of harming his grandmother was totally unacceptable to Elliot, and that by doing so, she would never see him again.
Noticing that he wasn’t in a good mood, Anastasia hugged him and said, “I’ll prepare dinner tonight. What do you want to have?”
“I enjoy whatever you cook.” Elliot hugged her back, pressing her against his chest so they could hold each other tightly.
All Anastasia could smell as she was buried in his arms was his hormonal scent, and she heard him say beside her ear, “But you’re my favorite dish of all.”
At that, she pushed him away with a smile. “I’m sorry, President Presgrave, but such a dish is not available tonight.”
She exited the room after finishing her words, leaving him smiling alone in the room. Elliot was patient enough to wait for what he desired.
It was a dark night outside. All of the other watches in the glass display were dimly lit; only the watch they were looking at earlier had a wolf’s head on it, exuding a domineering aura.
Meanwhile, Hayley sat dejectedly on a bench on the cold street. She had called numerous times, but none of her calls were answered.
