Chapter 332

Anastasia took in a deep breath and she eventually still stood up from her chair.

A man was fiddling with an exquisite woman’s bracelet in the president’s office. He had a bracelet
thicker than the one he was playing around with on his wrist and it complemented the limited edition
wristwatch he had on.

As she pushed open the door to come in, a smile instantly appeared on the man’s face. With his deep
eyes locked on her, he elegantly stood up and made his way toward her.

“Why don’t you ever listen to me?” Elliot asked grumpily as he looked at her being all upset. It was
always after he threatened her that she would listen to him.

Seeing the thin bracelet in his palm, she declared with no mercy. “Bring it for a refund. I don’t want to
accept this present.”

However, just as she finished saying that, the man had grabbed her by her wrist and was trying to put it
on her despite her refusal. “A refund? For what? I want to wear matching bracelets with you.”

And just like that, Anastasia now had a bracelet on her wrist. Even though the design was simple, the
gemstones on it probably weren’t cheap.

“It looks quite lovely on you. You aren’t allowed to remove it,” he demanded.

She looked at the bracelet, her emotions a mess. She was troubled as to whether she should accept it
or give it back

Elliot suddenly started undoing the buttons of his top at this moment, making Anastasia look at him with
her guard up. “What are you doing?” she asked him thereafter.



The man only continued to unbutton the first 3 buttons of his shirt, and the moment he did so, she
noticed a familiar-looking necklace hanging on his neck. She unknowingly gasped, “How did you
manage to get it done so soon?”

It was the necklace that she had designed for him before. She hadn’t expected him to wear it so soon.

“It is a gift from you, after all. Of course I had to tell them to make it faster and I just received it earlier
today. I am very satisfied with it as it suits me well.” Then, Elliot started to lovingly touch the necklace. “I
will always think of you when I wear it.”

After she heard those words, her cheeks suddenly felt warm. “You bought it with your own money.
What has it got to do with me?”

“Of course it has something to do with you. This necklace contains your feelings for me. Don’t
necklaces signify lingering affection?” Elliot asked with a smile.

The set of thick and thin bracelets resembled a male and female snake coiled around each other, which
was what she had indeed thought of when she designed the necklace. She didn’t think he would see
through her intention at a glance.

Such a question had only caused Anastasia’s face to burn even more as she asked, “If this is the case,
can I have my commission this month?”

The man let out a vexed ‘hmph’ when he heard her words before he started to complain, “Why don’t
you just marry me since you are so concerned about money? You would immediately gain financial
freedom.”

“I feel better when I spend the money that I earn myself. It is not something spending someone else’s
money can be compared to,” she challenged him with a raised eyebrow.



Since he couldn’t come up with a better rebuttal, Elliot fell quiet for a moment before he abruptly
extended an invitation to her. “Let’s have lunch together.”

“No can do,” she swiftly rejected him. “I already have a lunch date.”

Thinking that Anastasia’s lunch date might be Alex, Elliot immediately demanded, “Who is it?”

She would do anything to not have a meal with him, so she smoothly answered, “Felicia.”

“Cancel it. I already booked us a table,” he insisted as he wanted to bring her somewhere nice for
lunch.

She was immediately rendered speechless by the man who left her with no leeway.

After that, Anastasia glared at him and scolded, “Can you not be so domineering, Elliot?”

“Okay, I will be more gentle.” Then, a smiling Elliot added, “Only if you stop rejecting me, though.”

Anastasia fell silent for a while before she eventually replied, “I will be accepting the bracelet then, but
out of courtesy, I will give you a present as well. I will buy you anything you want this afternoon.”

This was the only solution she could come up with. She couldn’t possibly just take without giving
something back.

Hearing that she wanted to give him something in return, he grinned before he joyfully asked, “Is that
so? Can you give me everything I want?”

“As long as I can afford it,” she replied as she lightly chewed on her red lip.

“Alright. Select a few underpants for me from an underwear store!”

A baffled Anastasia hurriedly rejected Elliot. “But I don’t know how to pick stuff like this.”



“What do you mean by you don’t know how to? Do you mean to say that you don’t know my size?” He
suddenly grabbed her hand and pressed it against his lower abdomen. “Feel it with your own hands,
then.”

Anastasia took in a deep breath and she eventually still stood up from her chair.
