Chapter 47

As Hayley thought about it viciously, she realized that she now had tobribe someone from Bourgeois to help her as well as replace theopportunity to take Anastasia“s phone away.

In the meantime, Anastasia was busy with work. After all, theannouncement date of the jewelry competition's results wasapproaching, and she was looking forward to it. If she could win theprize, she would have a bonus of one million in her account. For herson's future, she had become a shrewd and calculative woman to thepoint where she had to earn every coin she could.

She wanted to save a lot of money for her son so that she would nothave to worry about his school fees and his wedding expenses.Although her son was still young, she had already made several long-term plans.

“Anastasia, there is a shop tour this Friday night. You should make timefor it!” Felicia came over to inform her.

“Friday night? What time does it start?”

“It starts at 6.00PM. You need to write a report which will be enteredinto the award assessment for the second half of the year.” Feliciareminded her.

Since the half-year award was a considerable sum of money, Anastasiathought to herself that she had to win it too.

“Okay, I'll be there on time.” Anastasia nodded. After all, the loss of theattendance award last time was regretful enough for her.

Since the day after tomorrow was Friday, Anastasia felt that she had nochoice but to trouble her father and let him come over to take care ofher son.

In the cafe next to Bourgeois, Hayley had invited May Potter, a femaledesigner, out. When May saw that it was Hayley Seymour-also knownas President Presgrave’s girlfriend—who had asked her out for coffee,she was excited and happy.

“Do you really want to order a set of jewelry from me, Miss Seymour?”“Yeah! I admire your talent very much, so I've decided to order a set ofjewelry designed by you.” Hayley pretended to be haughty. “Also, Iwant you to do something for me.”

“What do you need me to do?”

“You should be very clear about the rivalry between me and Anastasia. Iwant you to watch her for me and report her affairs to me at any time.”Hayley held the cup of coffee elegantly while pretending to be a high-class lady.

Since May was a newcomer, she was eager to get ahead in Bourgeois. Agood opportunity had been presented in front of her, so how could shenot seize it? Besides, she was also jealous of Anastasia’s excellentresources and hated her design talent even more.

“Miss Seymour, I hate Anastasia as much as you do. She thinks shedoesn't need to take others seriously just because she has good looks.In addition, I'm annoyed by the fact that she’s always trying to seducePresident Presgrave.”

Hayley snorted coldly. Has Anastasia always seduced Elliot in thecompany?

“Thank you for sticking up for me, May. I feel utterly infuriated by her.As long as you help me, I will place five million worth of jewelry orderswith you.”

Five million? May suppressed her surprise and happiness. She wouldhave almost 200,000 in commission fees alone! God! I am going to getrich.

“I will keep an eye on Anastasia for you, Miss Seymour. If she dares toseduce President Presgrave, I will tell you as soon as possible.” Mayexpressed her loyalty and obedience to Hayley.

Upon sensing May's toadyism, Hayley nodded. “Very well, I won't treatyou badly if you help me out.”

May was determined to curry favor with Hayley, so she would becomeHayley's eyes to monitor Anastasia in the company.

Today, it was just another day with a regular departmental meeting.When Anastasia entered the conference room, she could not help butbreathe a sigh of relief when she saw that Elliot's seat was empty. Afterall, she didn't like seeing Elliot very much now.

However, at this moment, steady footsteps came from the door of theconference room, and a domineering figure soon entered. His powerfulaura immediately felt oppressive on everyone present as Elliot walkedin against the light like a god descending

Upon seeing him, Anastasia was lost for words.

Does he have nothing better to do? It's just a regular departmentmeeting, so why does he need to come every time?

Apart from Anastasia, all the female designers here welcomed Elliot, butthe first person he looked at every time he sat down was alwaysAnastasia. Thus, the women present all looked at her with jealousy, andMay was no exception. Now that she was helping Hayley, she was extraobservant about everything Anastasia said and did.

On the other hand, Anastasia was twirling her pen in a bored manner.As the pen spun, it suddenly fell out between her fingers and rolleddirectly in front of Elliot.
