Chapter 266 She Would Love a Man With All Her Heart

They had a hearty dinner that night, and by dinnertime, Jared was sweating buckets from having so

much fun. Seeing so, Elliot ruffled the child’s hair affectionately and asked, “Jared, do you like my

place?”

“I do!” Jared said as he stuffed his mouth full like a chipmunk.

Anastasia couldn’t help chucking under her breath in response. Great, Jared likes his house and his

food!

After dinner, she brought Jared upstairs for a shower. The refreshing bath and a blow-dry of his short hair

made the little guy even more handsome.

Anastasia had packed some Legos for him, so Jared entertained himself with them on the sofa in his

bedroom. Meanwhile, she went back to her room and stood in front of the French windows that

overlooked the night cityscape. A stunning light show was on display within the forest of tall buildings,

making it a sight to behold.

She went to check on Jared at around 9.30PM and she couldn’t help chuckling because the little guy had

fallen asleep on the couch with the Lego bricks in his hands; his stomach was flat on the couch and his

legs were touching the floor.

With that, she carried him to the bed, tucked him in, adjusted the air conditioning, gave him a peck on his

forehead, and headed out before leaving the bracket light by the door on.

Right as she came out, Elliot happened to be walking toward her from the study and he asked in a soft

voice, “Has Jared fallen asleep?”

“Yeah, he has,” Anastasia whispered as she looked up at him. A hint of weariness enveloped Elliot after

a day’s work, making him look exceptionally lazy instead of the usual aloof guy that he was.

“You should turn in early too, President Presgrave,” she said warmly before entering her room.

However, just as she closed the door, Elliot pushed it open and she couldn’t help being stumped while he

entered her room and carried a hint of intimidation with him.

Anastasia’s heart skipped a beat reflexively, for he would always behave recklessly back in her home

and now, they were at his place. He hadn’t stuck to this habit still, had he?!

“Do you need something from me, President Presgrave?” Anastasia asked, feigning calmness.

“You haven’t said goodnight to me.” It was just a bloody random excuse.

She immediately said ‘Goodnight’ upon hearing so.

Elliot smirked in response. “Are you that afraid of me?” he asked as he sat cross-legged on the couch.

“Are you worried that I’ll eat you up?”

“You’re no beast, President Presgrave. You wouldn’t eat a human being.” Anastasia decided to play

dumb.

“You’re wrong because I would.” He didn’t want her to exalt him constantly.

She knew well that she wouldn’t be able to chase him out anytime soon, so she sat on the edge of the

bed to face him. “President Presgrave, my father and I are indebted to you, and we’ll definitely repay

your kindness in due time.”

Before she knew it, her family had already owed him so much.

“I don’t need you to repay any of it, but if you insist, I want…” Elliot latched his gaze on the woman on the

bed as he spoke.

She was like a rose that had just bloomed at night under the lights and her features made her oval face

stunning and alive. Her beauty was rare, for she would look stunning with either light or heavy makeup,

and she could already have men falling for her even with just the light makeup.

Meanwhile, Anastasia looked curiously at him, waiting for what he would say next.

“You,” he said firmly.

She blushed upon hearing his words, vexed that she had let her curiosity get the best of her. The hell, he

wants me?! What flirtatious words!

Anastasia knew she had to chase him out now. “It’s getting late, President Presgrave. You should get

some rest.”

Of course, Elliot knew she was going to do that. Hence, he got up and said ‘goodnight’ to her before

leaving.

Anastasia heaved a sigh of relief as she watched the door close, but what in the world was she actually

afraid of? That he would behave recklessly or that her unyielding heart would get lost in him?

If she didn’t have a son, or that incident five years ago had not happened, she would surely love a man

with her entire heart—the ’till death do us part’ kind of love.

Now, with Jared by her side, she didn’t want to have anything to do with love. It wasn’t that she had trust

issues, but she had parental duties.
