Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456 No Need to Thank Me

Anastasia quickly waved as she rejected Larry’s suggestion, “Don’t even think about it. I can’t sing at all, and I am even worse at dancing.”

Larry’s eyes were on her before he added with a sigh, “It is true what people say about how a gorgeous car is for a gorgeous woman. Aren’t you too beautiful to be true, Miss Anastasia?”

“You are also a very handsome man, Vice-president Young,” she smoothly gave him a compliment.

The man immediately broke out in cold sweat when he heard the words. “Oh, no! President Presgrave has got to be the most handsome one here tonight.”

He then turned to Elliot and with a laugh, he asked, “President Presgrave, would you like to come up and say a few words to the audience?”

Elliot waved to show that he wasn’t going to do it. Anastasia came back to her seat after she took her prize, and she threw a helpless glance at Elliot, only for the man to look everywhere but her.

“Happy times always go by fast. We are nearing the end of our annual celebration, but before that, we have prepared a cocktail party for everyone to have a good time.” After saying that, Larry left the stage for the next programme to commence.

As soon as the lights in the hall were turned on, the attendees began moving to another hall for wine tasting. Elliot’s phone began to ring at the same time, so he took his phone and left his seat.

Felicia, who had an envious gaze, came over to greet Anastasia. “Just look at how much effort President Presgrave has put into making you happy!” She sighed.

Anastasia only smiled in silent agreement. Elliot did go out of his way to keep her happy.

Felicia then continued, “Do you know that Aliona is here?”

Anastasia was caught by surprise when she heard that. She looked around the hall, and seemed to have remembered something as she turned to Felicia again. “You will have to excuse me for a moment, Felicia.”

Aliona must have taken the chance when Elliot went off to pick up his call to have an alone moment with him.

As Anastasia went into the hallway that Elliot had gone to, she saw Aliona speaking as she stood beside Elliot at the end of the hallway.

Anastasia only picked up her words when she got closer to them.

“Please forgive me, Elliot. I was drunk the other day. I only made such a mistake because I was out of it,” the woman explained regretfully.

“Miss Dora.” Elliot’s cold voice rang out as he stated, “I don’t mind letting this matter go, but I don’t wish to see you. Please be on your way.”
