Chapter 345 Lovebirds
However, Elliot’s expressions were impermeable and flawless. Soon, Anastasia’s shyness overcame
her stubbornness, and she couldn’t muster the strength to look at him anymore. Anastasia found that
she was hopeless against his flirtations. She had always lost against his teasing. After all, Elliot was the
best at conquering one’s heart.
“Don’t…” Anastasia whispered.
Don’t spend your whole life waiting for me. I can’t bear to see you waste your time on me. I’m not worth
your determination.
“Do you feel bad for me?” Elliot heard her inner voice before his thin lips curled up as his chin rested on
her shoulder. The woman in his arms didn’t struggle anymore as she became obedient like a tamed
cat.
“Can I kiss you?” he asked suddenly with politeness.
Anastasia was startled and looked up at him under the light. His face was low, and his lips were too
close that he could kiss her if he moved down just another inch.
His gaze was like a spell that could deceive any living being. After looking into his eyes, she nodded as
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtif she was being controlled by a hex.
“Good girl,” he whispered as his lips naturally pressed on Anastasia’s lips.
Her breath hitched. Although she was kissing him, she still kept her sanity around. If someone passed
by, she would immediately push him away.
However, Elliot managed to stir her mind into disarray and broke her last shred of sanity. His presence
was dominating and lingering, so much so that it was impossible for Anastasia not to fall for him.
The kiss made Anastasia taste the feeling of being in love. Her shyness made her eyes red like her
blushing cheeks.
Elliot stroked her long hair and kissed her on the forehead. He was pleased that she gradually
accepted his feelings, which filled him with hope and expectations.
However, they didn’t know that a camera in a hidden corner captured their kissing scene. They
continued flirting in the corner of the café, just like an average couple.
After lunch, the two returned to the company. Sitting in the office, Anastasia kept thinking about the
moment when they spent time together. This was what lovebirds would do, throwing their works away
and kept daydreaming.
Jeez! What a dangerous man.
Love was like nicotine. One would get addicted after first contact, and it would be hard to quit. At this
moment, her cell phone rang. She picked up and looked at the screen, after which she couldn’t help but
purse her lips and smile. It was Nigel, a man she had not been in contact with for a long time.
Oh, it’s Nigel. I wonder what’s up.
“Hey, Nigel.”
“Long time no see! I miss you and Jared. Want to have dinner together?” he immediately invited her to
a meal.
“What have you been up to?”
“My dad sent me to study abroad for a month. I was so busy! I just got off the plane this morning.”
“Maybe you should rest.”
“Not now. So, it’s a deal! I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.” Nigel ended the call.
Anastasia couldn’t help but smile at the thought of dinner; however, her smile froze when the sudden
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthought of Elliot crossed her mind.
Oh no, will he misunderstand? Wait a minute. Why do I care about him so much? No, I should tell him.
Or else he’ll get jealous.
After a train of thought, she picked up the phone and dialed his number.
“Hello.” His voice was cold, which was his usual tone to others.
“It’s me,” Anastasia said.
He immediately said with a deep voice, “Miss me?”
“No. Nigel invited Jared and me to dinner tonight. I have to inform you about this to prevent you from
inviting yourself to my house for dinner tonight.”
“This little mutt didn’t invite me!” Elliot couldn’t help but complain. “I’ll find him.” After that, he hung up
the call.
Anastasia felt amused at his antics. After a while, her phone rang again, and she picked it up. “Hi.”
“We can have dinner together tonight.” His mood was getting better after he was told that he could join
them.
“Jeez, what are you doing? Nigel kindly invited us to dinner, but you are mad at him instead.”
