However, Ben, who was behind her, dashed out and ran after her. Although he was already in his fifties, he was still stronger than Anastasia because he was a man. Nevertheless, Anastasia’s fight-or-flight response was triggered when she had a devastating realization that Ben was about to drag her back into the bedroom.
Immediately, she bit Ben’s hand harshly before she dragged her strengthless body to the couch to grab her bag. However, Ben was already waiting for Anastasia with a smirk on his face at the entrance of the suite when she wanted to make her escape.
“Where are you trying to go, honey? Why won’t you let me love you?”
Anastasia felt revolted when she heard Ben and felt like she was about to puke what she ate yesterday. Upon seeing that her route to escape was obstructed, she turned around and noticed the washroom before dashing over and closing the door before locking it.
Immediately, Ben ran toward the washroom and banged on the door. “Open up, honey. You won’t be able to escape me tonight.”
At the same time, Anastasia was rummaging through her bag anxiously. When she found her phone, the first person that came to her mind was Francis, but Francis was still taking care of Jared, so she decided to call Nigel instead. However, no one accepted the call despite the call being connected.
Right then, Anastasia had her heart in her mouth as Ben’s angry shouts and door banging kept ringing out.
She knew that she could lose her consciousness again anytime soon as she was still feeling strengthless after drinking the spiked drink, and she thought of another person before she quickly grabbed her phone and contacted Elliot.
“Hello?” The call was accepted within three seconds before Elliot’s deep voice rang out.
“Help me… Elliot, please help me… I got tricked, and I’m now hiding in the washroom of a suite. There’s a man outside who wants to hurt me… I’m feeling really dizzy. Please help me…”
As Anastasia trailed off, Elliot’s anxious voice quickly came in. “What hotel are you at? Which suite?”
“I don’t know… I was taken here… I’ll send you my location now… Elliot… Please save me…” Then, she felt her consciousness drifting away before she fainted in the washroom.
At the same time, a black car sped out of Presgrave Group’s parking lot before it dashed to the hotel that was being pinpointed. The handsome man who was driving had a cold look on his face. Who would try to plot against Anastasia? Who would dare to trick her?
Within 15 minutes, Elliot’s car entered the hotel’s parking lot before he started making his way to the hotel reception. Although he tried calling Anastasia, no one accepted the call, indicating that she had already lost consciousness.
“Get your manager over now. My friend is getting assaulted at your hotel, and I want the hotel to take full responsibility if anything happens to her.”
When the manager came and saw Elliot, he started perspiring. Isn’t this the young master of the Presgrave Family?
“I’ll check the surveillance camera right away, Young Master Elliot.” The manager quickly entered the surveillance room before he found the footage of an unconscious girl getting carried into the elevator within two minutes. She was taken by two men in caps, and they took her to the presidential suite.
After getting the suite number, Elliot dashed to the elevator while the manager followed along with two of his employees. While the elevator started heading up rapidly, he felt his heartbeat increasing by BPMs along with it.
Come on! Move faster! Faster! Has Anastasia been… No. I won’t let that happen. I won’t allow Anastasia to get assaulted again. Right then, Elliot was feeling murderous as he tried to figure out who would try to harm Anastasia.
Back at the presidential suite, Ben had made sure Anastasia fainted in the washroom. As expected, he started picking the lock to the washroom, as he didn’t dare to ask for help from the hotel. At this moment, he was picking on the washroom door with a tool before the entrance to the suite was kicked open.
Then, an angry figure came in. Right then, Elliot looked like Satan himself paying a visit to Ben. Before the cunning old man could react, Elliot brought his leg down on him with a disgusted look on his face.
After he kicked Ben away, the manager quickly got his employees to unlock the door under Elliot’s instructions, as Anastasia had lost consciousness in the washroom.
The employees came back in a hurry within a minute with the keys before they unlocked the door to the washroom and found a disheveled-looking woman leaning against the wall. Despite the illumination of the light on her pale face, her beauty was still astounding.
“Anastasia…” Elliot called out anxiously before he carried her up from the ground.
At the same time, Ben finally recognized Elliot, after which he fell to the ground in shock and disbelief that he had tried to cross his woman.
Before Elliot left with Anastasia, he instructed the manager coldly, “I want you to lodge a police report and have this man detained.”
Immediately, the manager got his employees to restrain Ben while he went to contact the police.
On the other hand, Anastasia felt relieved when she sensed the familiar scent of the man carrying her before she wrapped her arms around the man’s neck tightly to reduce the burning sensation that she had been feeling.
Despite that, Elliot didn’t leave with Anastasia and brought her to another room instead. After he placed her on the bed gently, she refused to let go of him, as she knew Elliot was the one carrying her before she opened her beautiful teary-looking eyes.
Upon meeting Anastasia’s gaze, Elliot felt his breath hitching. Even though he knew he shouldn’t be having these feelings at this moment, it was impossible for any man not to feel tempted at the sight of Anastasia right then.
When Anastasia regained some of her consciousness, she curled up in a blanket with her hair spread out messily after knowing that she was safe. Despite that, the drug’s effect was still tormenting her endlessly.
Upon noticing Elliot, she felt her rationale slipping away before she suddenly felt like hugging him.
“Can… Can you hug me?” Anastasia was experiencing chills and heat flashes simultaneously, and she was feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Knowing that she wanted, Elliot reached out to pull her into his embrace before hugging her tightly. Meanwhile, Anastasia looked up to observe the man’s chiseled brow ridge and nose. From her point of view, she could see a gentle look in the man’s eyes, and it was calling out for her.
