Never Too Far Novel
Chapter 291-300
Chapter 291
Riley let out a scornful huff after hearing Aliona’s words. “Anastasia Tillman? Could it be that policewoman’s daughter? Interesting…”
A dangerous glint flashed through his eyes the next moment, and through clenched teeth, he growled, “The mother is already a hindrance. I didn’t think she would have an even more annoying daughter.”
Riley was the one who orchestrated the kidnapping that happened to Elliot when he was 6. It was a pity he didn’t manage to get rid of Elliot when a female police officer had sacrificed herself to save the young boy.
He had a feeling the reason Elliot kept repaying the Tillmans was because Anastasia was the policewoman’s 2-year-old daughter when that incident happened. He even guessed Elliot had the intention of marrying Anastasia.
The Tillman Family only had their luck to blame for getting involved with him again.
Aliona tilted her gorgeous face upward to look at him. “Father, I have decided to strike. I am confident I can win Elliot’s heart.” As the foster daughter who grew up under Riley’s care, she was also trying her best to repay him.
“Okay. Don’t disappoint me. I will investigate Anastasia.” It was hard for Riley to get over his resentment when he recalled how Elliot had kicked him out today.
What’s more, the enormous Presgrave Group was still in his hands. And even though he had the blood of the Presgraves flowing in his veins, he couldn’t get even a cent.
Harriet went into the quiet villa room for a quick visit, and seeing that Anastasia had fallen asleep, Harriet could only inform her grandson to take good care of Anastasia. Harriet then went to Hayley. The young lady kept crying as she desperately explained herself out of fear that Anastasia almost drowning would be her responsibility.
Harriet finally went to rest when it had gotten late. Hayley sat on the bed while Daniel gently massaged her shoulders.
“Daniel, how else do you think I can get Elliot’s attention?”
Hearing that, Daniel tried to persuade her, “Why do you agonize yourself like this, Hayley? You will still live a good life even if you leave President Presgrave. He won’t let you suffer.”
She rolled her eyes at him and stood up asking, “What do you know?”
Of course, there was no way Daniel would understand her anxiety. If there ever came a day when Anastasia became Elliot’s wife, Hayley’s happy days would come to an end, especially after the incident tonight which would definitely have made Anastasia hate her even more.
Therefore, even if she knew that it was beyond her power, Hayley was determined to destroy the relationship between Elliot and Anastasia with her own hands by any means.
“Hayley, I actually…” Daniel seemed to speak with great difficulty as he looked at her back.
She turned her head to look into his eyes, and just from his gaze alone, her instincts alone told her that the man must have fallen in love with her after they shared 2 nights together!
After she found out that she was rich, she had gained a lot of charms that made people like Daniel fall in love with her. Unfortunately, even if Daniel was going to do well in the future, she could neither wait nor fall for him.
“Just do what you should and don’t overthink the rest. You can go out now!” She then walked over and patted him. “Elliot is the only man for me.”
“But we—”
She harshly cut him off and warned, “Don’t talk about it. You and I are the only ones who know about this. No one else can ever find out, understand?”
He could only let out a sigh as he reluctantly pushed the door open, and left.
Anastasia had a nightmare halfway through her sleep. As if she had sunk into the sea, she struggled against the suffocation that felt like death.
She unknowingly waved her hand in the air as she panted for air with a painful expression on her face.
Elliot was in the midst of resting with his eyes closed on the sofa beside him when he heard the voice coming from the bed. He rushed over immediately, and pressed her outstretched hands down before leaning over. “Anastasia, Anastasia…”
As he continuously called out to her, she eventually broke free from the dream and opened her eyes. As soon as she saw his face, she sat up and tightly wrapped her arms around his neck as if she was grabbing the last piece of driftwood when she was on the verge of death in the water. She then buried herself in his chest and pulled him in for a tight hug.
“Don’t leave me… I am scared.”
Caught by surprise, he froze for a second before a smile tugged on the corners of his mouth. He also reached out to hug her tight, his eyes glowing with joy. “Don’t worry!” he reassured her. “I won’t leave you, I am not going anywhere.”
Anastasia’s face leaned against his heart pounding hot and fast, and it felt oh-so strong and reliable.
Chapter 292
Elliot stroked her long hair, and he comforted her heart that had just recovered from the nightmare. “Don’t be afraid. I am here.”
Anastasia’s fear slowly began to subside then. It was only when she returned to reality that she realized how tightly she was holding onto him. Her pale face immediately blossomed like a red rose, and she quickly let go of him. “Sorry…” she mumbled, embarrassed.
“For you to push me away after you have had your fill, you really have no conscience!” he complained. As he sat on the edge of the bed, he looked at the big bed she was in and asked, “It was very uncomfortable to sleep on the sofa just now. Do you mind if I join you in bed?”
Her face turned pink again at that. Thinking that the sofa did look like it wouldn’t fit his frame, she couldn’t help scooting to the side to the point where she was about to fall off. She had now left a big part of the bed to him.
“Please go ahead!”
He lifted the blanket off the bed, and with his long arms, he tyrannically pulled the woman who was hanging on the edge of the bed back. “Why are you running away? What do you suppose I will do to you when you are in such a state?”
With a tug, she was now pressed against his chest. It was already the darkest hour of the night then, and she didn’t make a sound to break the surrounding silence.
Just like that, they slept in the same bed.
Anastasia, who had just had a good rest, found it difficult to fall asleep again. She raised her head, and from the angle she was looking up from, she had the prime seat to the man’s attractive jawline and sharp collarbone…
Undoubtedly, it was impossible to stay in this man’s arms without thinking about this and that.
“Sleep.” As soon as the light was turned off, and her vision went dark, a big palm held her by the back of her head and pressed her into the man’s chest.
“D—did you give me CPR in front of all the guests?” She had thought about it after the incident, and this seemed like a plausible guess.
“Mhm. Do you mind?” His rough voice came from above her head.
Her face warmed slightly after his nonchalant reply. “I don’t,” she answered. “You did that to save me…”
However, she was still a little embarrassed to think how he did it in front of so many people.
“You don’t seem like you can sleep anymore,” he suddenly asked again, his voice somewhat enticing and dangerous.
His tone didn’t go unnoticed by her, and she quickly shut her eyes and said, “I can sleep! I am sleeping now.”
Wanting to share his feelings then, he randomly threw a question at her. “Anastasia, do you know how flustered and scared I was when I performed CPR on you?”
Her heart tightened when she heard his words. If she were to imagine that it was him lying there instead, she was sure she would feel the same as he did!
“I know,” she knowingly replied. Her words had just fallen when the hand on the back of her head suddenly pulled her in. In the dark of the room, her lips were sealed by the man the next moment.
A punishment for her was overdue since she made him such a mess when the incident happened.
“Mmm…”
Her sensitivity seemed to have heightened when she couldn’t see in the dark.
But in the end, the man didn’t really do anything else, and only punished her with a kiss. Their bodies, however, were clinging to each other. They could feel every inch of each other’s warmth. She was so startled that she immediately pretended to sleep.
She was afraid that he would ‘help’ her again if she stayed awake.
Eventually, she unconsciously fell asleep in his arms.
Elliot’s side of the bed was already empty when Anastasia opened her eyes the next morning. She lightly touched it, and upon feeling the lingering warmth, she started to blush. They had slept together last night, after all.
An attendant soon quietly brought in clean clothes, and they left as soon as they placed the laundry.
Anastasia also got up at this time to take a shower, and she then put on a clean long dress. She pushed open the door and came out to find her phone, where she eventually found both it and her bag in the living room. She proceeded to take her phone, and as soon as the screen lit up, she noticed that she had gotten a few missed calls from Francis and a text message from Erica. With a frown on her face, she clicked into the message.
It was a video that showed Elliot carrying Hayley down before she was going to jump out of the window, and also him putting her on the bed.
Even though Anastasia knew that Elliot was only looking out for Hayley, it still hurt her to see their interaction.
She took out her bag, and it was only after she gave her father a call to tell him that she was all right that Francis could heave a sigh of relief. “You really scared Dad this time.”
“Don’t worry, Dad. I am alright.”
He then abruptly asked an unexpected question. “Erica said that you pushed Hayley. Did you really do that?”
Chapter 293
“I didn’t push her. She fell in herself.” This was something Anastasia would never admit to.
“Alright. Dad trusts you. It is fortunate that no lives were lost. Don’t cause this kind of trouble again.”
She too knew that she had worried her father, and so she meekly replied, “Thanks Dad.”
She reminded herself to watch out for Hayley in the future because Hayley was more scary and vicious than she ever imagined. She would rather watch her drown than save her if it wasn’t because she didn’t know she could swim last night.
However, it was for a fact that harm had been done to Anastasia’s good reputation last night. Not only did the whole of the Presgrave Family know that she had pushed someone into the water, she also refused to apologize, and even beat someone up. Erica had also chosen the perfect time to reveal what Anastasia had done 5 years ago. After all that had happened, the relatives and friends of the Presgraves probably thought that she was an evil woman.
It wouldn’t have mattered if she didn’t marry into the Presgrave Family. She wouldn’t associate with those people anyway.But still, she was concerned at this moment.
“What are you running around for?” She was in the midst of zoning out in the garden when a low male voice called out from behind.
Upon hearing that, she turned back to look at the person, only to see that it was Elliot sauntering toward her. At this moment, the man looked like a god as the morning sunlight shone on him.
He was very good-looking on top of being tall and intimidating. Him being an attractive male was a fact that she had to admit despite how reluctant she was.
In fear of her heart beating irregularly from staring at him, she hurriedly lowered her gaze. “I am not running around. I want to go back.”
“I will take you home. Jensen will be back later,” he informed her.
Not wanting to take up his time, she immediately rejected his offer. “You can have someone else send me back if you are busy!”
“There is nothing more important than you.” After he finished speaking, he reached out his hand to hold her. “Have breakfast before you go. Don’t starve yourself out.”
