Chapter 321 You Are Better off Leaving the Party
Anastasia opened her closet, and next to the neat suits was a row of dresses. She rarely wore dresses,
but the handful that she had were definitely capable of stealing the show.
In the end, she had chosen a tight, long-sleeved gray polka dot dress with a form-fitting waistline and a
nice ruffled hem that accentuated her exquisite body figure.
Since having her son, she had not been dressed like this for a long time as her daily outfit consisted
mostly of T-shirts and jeans.
At around 6.00PM, the entire staff from the Department of Design had arrived and all of them were
well-dressed for the party. The ladies, in particular, were vying for the limelight to flaunt their beauty,
and Alice was no exception. Although Aliona would be the center of attention at the party, they might
also have a chance to be seen by Elliot.
The daily office outfits were no longer their battlefield. On the contrary, tonight was the perfect time to
present a different side of themselves.
Aliona was the first to arrive and her appearance was particularly eye-catching. Those familiar with
international fashion trends could recognize immediately that the sequined pearl dress she was

wristwatch and the necklace she was wearing. It was without a doubt that Aliona was the star of the
show.
“Aliona, your watch is stunning. It must be exorbitant.” Someone tried to flatter Aliona.
“Not really,” Aliona replied with a gentle smile as she settled in her seat and the empty seat next to her
must be reserved for Elliot.
People who already knew the price, like Alice, wouldn’t have to ask because this wristwatch was a
limited edition, with only a few available in the country.
It was obvious that Aliona came from a wealthy family background, and her purpose to enter the
company was not to compete with her but to secure a rich husband like Elliot.
“What do you guys know? This is a limited edition and it is not available for the general public,” Alice
said, intending to earn a good impression in front of Aliona.
Aliona said nothing but smiled as Alice’s flattering had worked on her. Riley had raised her with
extravagance , so all of the food that she ate and the clothes that she wore had to be the best.
And to repay her godfather, she was to take down the Presgrave Group by marrying Elliot.
At this moment, Anastasia had arrived at the entrance and people’s attention was drawn to her. When
she saw Felicia waving at her, she naturally walked toward Felicia and took a seat next to her.
What a coincidence; Anastasia’s seat was the exact opposite of Aliona’s.
“Hi, Anastasia. You have finally arrived,” Aliona greeted politely.
“I’m late. Sorry about that,” Anastasia apologized to everyone in the room. Under the lights, she lightly
stroked her hair that was resting on her chest and that movement emanated an amorous atmosphere
that stunned them for a moment.
Even if Anastasia seemed pitiful after being abandoned by Elliot, there was no doubt that she could
marry into the purple with her gorgeous face.
Everyone had been used to the way she dressed in the workplace, so they never expected her to be as
charming as a dazzling diamond after she was dressed up.
At that moment, Aliona’s heart skipped a beat as Anastasia had given her a great sense of crisis
tonight.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe fact that Anastasia was here would most likely undermine Aliona’s presence, which was
detrimental to her plan.
“Excuse me. I will be back in a moment,” Anastasia said to Felicia and walked toward the restroom.
Seeing that, Aliona’s expression changed. Then, she got up and headed toward the restroom as well.
Anastasia was slightly startled when she saw Aliona’s figure reflected in the mirror while washing her
hands in the restroom.”
Aliona raised her head and brushed her long hair with her fingers to reveal her slender wrist with the
branded wristwatch. Then, her red lips parted as she said, “Anastasia, out of goodwill, I think you will
be better off leaving the party.”
Right then, Anastasia’s hand washing movement halted. She raised her head to glance at Aliona from
the mirror and their eyes were locked on each other.
In that instant, Anastasia could sense the animosity that was coming from Aliona.
“Miss Dora, what do you mean by that?” Anastasia asked as she squinted her eyes.
Aliona crossed her arms and turned to face Anastasia. Her gaze looked intimidating. “Don’t you
understand what I said? There will be a lot of affectionate interactions between me and President
Presgrave tonight. I’m afraid that you can’t handle it,” she bragged.
