Room for You novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48 

After being stunned for a few seconds, Anastasia then raised her head to meet a pair of unhappy eyes; Elliot was narrowing his eyes and glancing at her icily. He took her pen and placed it in front of him without any intention of returning it.

Since Anastasia still had to note things down with that pen, she stood up in embarrassment as her face blushed. Then, she went over and forcibly took the pen back.

Elliot glanced at her, but he didn’t speak nor show any signs of displeasure.

Upon seeing this, Felicia coughed awkwardly. “Okay, okay, let’s continue the meeting and not do other things.”

While her face turned even redder, Anastasia felt that bad things always seemed to happen with Elliot around.

“Anastasia, you and May will be grouped together for this Friday’s event.” Felicia began to place the designers into teams.

May immediately pretended to be happy. “Let’s work well together, Anastasia.”

The woman nodded and smiled at May. After Felicia divided everyone into teams, she began to analyze the design works and the market. Elliot didn’t say a word, but he listened to everything. However, his gaze fell on Anastasia from time to time, and he kept staring at her for several minutes at a time as if he was distracted by her. This made the woman feel uncomfortable, for the man’s eyes were like glue as they stuck themselves to her without moving away.

Finally, the meeting was over. Anastasia couldn’t wait to pack up and leave, but Elliot suddenly said coldly, “Anastasia, I need you to stay back for a while.”

Anastasia’s feet that were about to move stopped in place. She turned to look at the indifferent man and asked, “Is there something you need, President Presgrave?”

The man didn’t speak. Other designers wanted to listen in on their conversation, but they were all oppressed by Elliot’s sweeping glance. Hence, they trembled and hurriedly left

Meanwhile, Alice and May looked like they were about to die of jealousy. Anastasia was an exception in the company and was treated favorably everywhere. It was as though Elliot was here in this company for her alone, and he didn’t pay attention to

what the other employees did.

When the door of the conference room closed, Anastasia started to get angry. She stopped pretending and slammed the table angrily. “What the hell are you trying to do, Elliot?”

“I want to take you back to see my grandma next Monday.” Elliot spoke suddenly, his eyes calm.

Anastasia was shocked. He wants to take me to see the old madam of the Presgrave Family? Her first thought was immediate rejection.

“I refuse. I don’t want to have anything to do with your Presgrave Family” Anastasia refused bluntly.

“Is that so? Then you are not allowed to meet with Nigel, and you are not allowed to flirt with him.” Elliot’s gaze was burning as he forced it on her.

Anastasia looked at him speechlessly. “He is my friend.”
