Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 465

Chapter 465 She Is Doing It on Purpose!

The dinner was a feast. For someone as greedy for wealth and power as Naomi was, there was no way she would dare to underserve a man like Elliot.

“Mommy, I want some shrimp,” Jared said as he pointed to a shrimp dish.

Hearing that, Anastasia washed her hand before she peeled some shrimps for her son. As she continued to get rid of the shell, Elliot suddenly brought his bowl over for Anastasia to place a peeled shrimp into his bowl. He started to happily munch into it right after.

Then, she continued to peel a few more for him. Naomi started to feel anxious as she looked at Anastasia seemingly assuming the role of Elliot’s wife. Anastasia has got a complete hold on Elliot, she thought. This can be dangerous for Erica and I.

As much as Erica was attracted to Elliot’s gentle and handsome appearance, she loathed Anastasia for her deliberate show of affection.

It was already past 8.00PM by the time they finished dinner, which also meant that it was time for Elliot to take Anastasia and Jared back to their own home.

Francis went and saw them off at the door as he reminded them to drive slowly. Erica and Naomi had also come out to send their guests off.

After watching the impressive sedan leave, Francis said to the mother and daughter, “I will be back after a walk.”

The instant he left, Erica finally exploded in irritation. “Mom! Just look at how smug Anastasia was. She clearly was showing off their relationship to us on purpose.”

“Anastasia was giving us a warning.” Naomi had held in a lot of rage as well. “She is trying to make us think that she isn’t an easy opponent, now that she has Elliot backing her up.”

Erica started to grind her teeth as she growled, “Mom, we cannot be afraid of her.”

Her phone began to ring right at this moment. After taking a look at it, she angrily accepted the call. “Hey, Alex. Where have you been these 2 days? Why didn’t you answer my call or reply to my messages?”

“I am sorry, Erica. I’ve been busy dealing with the company’s inventory. I didn’t mean to not reply. I called you to tell you something.”

“What is it?” she asked.
