Never Too Far Novel
Chapter 671-680
Anastasia walked backstage to greet Felicia. After all, Felicia and her design team were the stars of the product launch party.
“Your designs are so beautiful this time, Felicia,” Anastasia commented as she flipped through the art book. Everything in there was well-designed.
“I hope we didn’t disappoint you.” In Felicia’s mind, Anastasia was the boss.
“I believe in you, Felicia.”
“Anastasia.” Suddenly, a lady called out from behind them before Katrina swiftly moved to stand behind Anastasia.
“Katrina,” Anastasia greeted with a smile.
“Do you mind if we talk in private?” Katrina nervously asked. She currently found it hard to talk to Anastasia because she exuded an oppressive pressure that Katrina did not like.
Felicia gently patted Anastasia on the cheeks. “I’ll help the team out now, Anastasia.”
The moment Felicia was gone, Katrina took a deep breath. “I know Bourgeois is looking for a spokesperson for their product. I was hoping I could have a chance to be in your advertisements.”
“That is up to marketing. You can attend the interviews for the job.” Anastasia smiled.
Katrina bit her lip. “Anastasia, can you make an exception for me just this once? Please? My brother helped you all those years, after all.”
Naturally, Anastasia knew exactly what Katrina was thinking. The woman wanted compensation for Mason’s help all those years and if the one making the request had been Mason, she would have gone along with the plan before asking about why.
When Anastasia remained silent, Katrina continued, “I know I should not be greedy and take advantage of something owed to someone else, but we are like a family. Can’t you make an exception?”
Anastasia knew that Mason was not someone to ask for reparations either. “I’ll have to ask the team about it. I’ll let you know when I have news.”
“Thank you, Anastasia.” Katrina smiled. When Anastasia left, she let out a sigh of relief. Her brother would not ask for anything in return because he was a proud man, but she was not like him.
She would use anything she could to help herself since she was not doing well as a model. If she wanted to become a celebrity, she would have to be famous first.
When Anastasia returned to her seat, Elliot was chatting with Larry, who then stood up the moment he noticed her return. The show started the moment she returned.
Lights beamed down onto the stage as masked models strutted while decked out in jewelry made by Bourgeois. Naturally, Katrina was one of the models. She had all her attention focused on doing the best she could. However, when she walked by, she would stare at Elliot.
Anastasia noticed it, of course. She knew what kind of woman Katrina was. As long as there was an opportunity, Katrina would do anything to seduce someone.
Before the show, Anastasia had been contemplating giving her a chance because of her connection to Mason. Now, however, all of those thoughts had been chucked out of the window.
“I have to answer a call, sweetheart,” Elliot softly said.
She merely nodded in response as she was engrossed in the show. Then, just as he stood up, one of the female celebrities stood up as well. Although she left in the opposite direction, the corridors outside the hall were all interconnected.
That celebrity had been waiting for her chance. Using the excuse that she had to head to the bathroom, she walked out of the hall. When she eventually made her way over to the other side, she saw Elliot taking a phone call while standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Elliot was like a magnet that attracted the gaze of every woman present that evening. No matter where he stood, he would become the center of attention.
After all, he was a man whom people rarely saw. Any woman with brain cells would know not to waste any opportunity that came along.
The celebrity’s name was Cathryn Windsor. She was considered one of the most popular celebrities of the year due to a popular show that had recently aired. Due to her fame, she had recently been announced as the spokesperson for Bourgeois’ new products.
However, her ambitions did not end there. She wanted a strong and powerful benefactor, someone like Elliot Pregrave, who stood at the top of the food chain.
Elliot ended the call and turned to return to the event hall. At the same time, she pretended to be busy talking on the phone and acted as if she did not see him there. When she crashed into him, he reached a hand out to her shoulder to stop her from falling to the ground.
Cathryn hastily apologized, “I’m sorry, President Presgrave. I didn’t see you there. This is all my fault!” She then reached out and patted his arm. “I hope I didn’t hurt you!”
Elliot waved his hand and answered, “It’s fine.”
“Oh, sorry about the lipstick stain on your suit. Let me take care of it.” Rather than removing the stain off his arm, she tried to reach out to stroke his chest after saying that.
His arm prevented her attempt right away, and he said in an icy tone, “No need.”
Cathryn let out a frustrated sigh as soon as Elliot walked away. She saw this as an opportunity to stimulate his interest in her. No one could approach him because he behaved in a way that was true with what she had heard about him.
Why was he married if he didn’t like women?
Right after Cathryn left, Felica came out from around the corner. She had just come out from the bathroom when she saw this scene, and she thought it would taint her sight for the day.
She wasn’t often the kind to pry into other people’s business, but she felt it was necessary to alert Anastasia about this. If an actress went out of her way to try to seduce Elliot, then she was not the best choice to represent Bourgeois as a spokesperson.
Anastasia’s phone lit up with texts. She checked it and saw it was a text message from Felicia.
‘I just saw Cathryn trying to flirt with your husband in the hallway, Anastasia. You should take note.’
She read the text calmly and her eyes went to where Cathryn should have been. There was no one there.
‘Thank you, Felicia,’ Anastasia replied graciously. At this moment, Elliot had returned and his large hand went out to grasp hers with the intention to caress it.
She then raised her head to meet his gaze. Despite the dim lighting, the man’s eyes gleamed with affection. When she noticed this, she smiled sweetly and kissed his cheek, showing her affection in public.
Cathryn happened to see their affections as she was going back to her seat. She started to feel a little scared as she thought about the foolish thing she had just done. She was worried that Anastasia wouldn’t let her off the hook if she knew about the flirting earlier.
She was glad Anastasia didn’t know about it.
Who would know what Anastasia knew, though?
When Elliot saw just how bold she was to kiss him in public like this, he gave her a contented smile that made her heart flutter.
Her face started to blush as she felt the gazes of everyone on them. Her confession of love for this man was publicized.
This was a warning for anyone who wanted to take him away from her.
The press conference went smoothly while the online media reaction was spectacular. A great deal of support and encouragement was shown to them with some exceptional items being promoted as well…
After they left the conference, Elliot took her to a posh restaurant for dinner. Tonight was the night of their date.
In addition to that, he had another surprise in store for her. He was pleased to get the most beautiful brooch that was being offered at the event, and he planned to give it to her as a present tonight.
“Oh! When did you get this?” Anastasia was a little surprised, but she was excited that he had just given her something out of the blue.
“It looks good on you,” he told her, praising both the brooch and her.
Anastasia took the gift as Elliot placed his chin on his folded palms and looked at her affectionately. “Since you accepted my gift, Mrs Presgrave has to reward me tonight.”.
“Oh! So, there’s a secret motive here!” Anastasia’s eyes narrowed as she said, “I think I need to pay closer attention to what’s going on around me. I can’t always be fooled by you.”
Elliot kept looking at her with love in his eyes and told her, “I wouldn’t care how stupid you are because you still have me wrapped around your fingers.”
Was he calling her stupid?
She protested, “I’m not stupid. I’m actually quite clever.”
“You are correct. My wife is the most clever woman alive,” he said as his grin grew more endearing. It was as if he would never get tired of flirting with her in this manner.
How could Anastasia continue to fight after noticing that he was being affectionate with her? At this moment, he continued to fill her plate with food. “Sweetheart, you need to eat more in order to have enough energy tonight.”
This caused her to quickly blush. “Is that all you can think about?!”
“Is there anything else?” Elliot closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking about what he was going to say. Then, he said, “I don’t want anything else tonight except you.”
After hearing this, Anastasia didn’t waste any time in lowering her head to start eating, and this man immediately began piling more meat onto her plate. Why did it seem as if he was feeding her to be slaughtered later that night?
The next Monday, there was a meeting at Bourgeois in the morning.
Anastasia sat at the chief designer’s seat and she was dressed in a beige suit with her hair tied back. This gave her delicate and lovely face a natural and tidy appearance.
The first topic she wanted to discuss with everyone today was the termination of Cathryn’s endorsement contract that was recently signed.
“President Tillman, we just invested 10 million dollars on her. If we break our contract with her, we have to compensate her for liquidated damages.”
When Anastasia heard that, her eyes turned cold. “Then, you should figure out how to avoid compensating her for terminating the contract.”
Everyone cringed at this statement. They initially thought that she was more pleasant, but they certainly never expected her to throw such a serious challenge at them on her first day.
“President Tillman, may I know the reason why you are terminating Cathryn’s contract?”
“I don’t like her,” Anastasia answered bluntly as she elegantly twirled her long hair around her finger.
Her response was both arrogant and straightforward.
“President Tillman, I understand. I’ll take care of it right away. We will have to discuss our new spokesperson after launching the new product at the conference. Do you have any recommendations?”
“You may suggest a few for me to select from,” she replied.
Felicia was the only one aware of the rationale for her decision.
Anastasia asked Felicia to stay. “Felicia, please remain. The rest of you may return to work!”
