Chapter 386 I Won’t Sell You Out
As shrewd as Alex was, he naturally knew what Naomi saw in him. From now on, he’d work with this mother and daughter duo to secure Tillman Constructions for themselves.
After Elliot returned, he immediately had Felicia come to his office. He wanted her to dig into Aliona’s client and why did the kidnapping happen at the café’s parking lot.
Naturally, Felicia didn’t dare be dismissive of it. She promptly asked Aliona for her client’s profile, which Aliona passed to her.
“Aliona, how did you meet this client?”
At that, Aliona acted all docile. “She came to me first. We met at a banquet.”
“Are you familiar with her?”
“No. Is everything alright, Felicia?” Aliona feigned concern.

“Yeah. You can go back to your work.” Felicia thought she shouldn’t let on more. It seemed that she’d have to visit that client herself.
After returning to her office, Aliona couldn’t help heaving a sigh of relief. In actuality, she had been having a tough time lately, for the failed kidnapping caused her godfather to be detained. Riley’s subordinates even delivered a message to her, saying that she’d have to continue the rest of the path on her own.
She loathed Anastasia. She had believed winning Elliot’s heart was a piece of cake when she was living abroad, but ever since Anastasia entered the picture, all Elliot cared about was that woman.
Meanwhile, Felicia met up with the client that afternoon. Since Aliona had talked to the client and colluded the story before the meeting, Felicia couldn’t find anything.
With that, she reported it to Elliot and sent him the client’s profile while she was at it.
Elliot fixed his gaze at the profile as he thought about Anastasia’s kidnapping. Surely something had gone wrong somewhere, especially when his bodyguards noted the kidnappers had been stationed in the parking lot twenty minutes prior.
Elliot then ordered Rey, “Dig into this client.” She was in her early fifties. Judging by the woman’s age, she was likely Riley’s acquaintance, and Riley must’ve had her lure Anastasia to that café where his men had been waiting.
The whole thing made sense when he put it that way.
On the other hand, Aliona asked for leave in the afternoon to meet up with Lucas.
Aliona was all composed upon seeing Lucas at the café. “Lucas, my godfather’s been taken into custody now. From now on, you have to aid me in the rest of my plan.”
“Hand me my son’s footage, or I won’t help you.” Lucas rebelled.

“Are you forgetting your position? Your son and his footage are in our hands. Now that my godfather has handed all the power to me, I can do things however I please.” Malice laced Aliona’s eyes as she held the cup in her hands.

“What exactly do you want me to do?”
“Find me a chance to get close to Elliot so that I can get pregnant and birth his child,” Aliona announced shamelessly.
At that, Lucas couldn’t help dissuading her, “Now that your godfather’s been taken into custody, why don’t you take over his business? We can make a good deal, and you don’t have to worry about anything for the rest of your life.”
“Just how much would you be able to give me? From what I know, your son has used up almost all of your wealth. Can you give me five billion? If not, there’s nothing we can talk about.” What Aliona was asking for was daylight robbery. What was more, she was planning a way out. Once she gave the Presgraves an heir, she’d have more than a mere five billion!
“It’s not that easy to get close to Elliot.”
“That’s why I need you to give me the chance.” Aliona bore into him. “Think about your family and your son’s future!”
Alas, Lucas knew he could only give in. “Alright! I’ve been organizing a charity event lately, and I’ll invite him then. Meanwhile, you should find an opportunity to get close to him.”
“Good! I’m sure you know what to do if Elliot asks about me!”
“Relax! I won’t sell you out when my son is in your hands.” Lucas closed his eyes. What a bitter end to his life.
