Chapter 210
Although Anastasia didn’t know what to say, she was honestly moved.
“Thank you, but I hope that you won’t ask them to visit my shop anymore. I’ve given up the position of associate director.” She sighed.
“Why is that so?” Elliot inquired anxiously.
“I just want to focus on designing. I don’t have any management skills, so I don’t want to hold the company back.”
“Why aren’t you confident with your skills? Don’t you want to get the salary increment?”
“There is a limit to my ability and I only deserve my current salary. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Presgrave. You may ask your family and friends to stop coming by the shop!”
Anastasia hung up the call after saying the last sentence. She breathed a sigh of relief before calling Felicia to tell her about her decision, and the latter respected her wish to do so.
After spending the past few months with Anastasia, Felicia came to realize that she was a straightforward and honest girl. Hence, Felicia liked the girl a lot.

Meanwhile, someone started to spread rumors about this exact topic at the front desk and it instantly became the talk of the entire company.
“I heard that Anastasia will become the associate director of the Department of Design this time,” said a lady at the front desk who had just heard the gossip.
“Why is it her?” Erica immediately leaned over and joined the conversation.
“I heard that the three designers in the Department of Design are competing for the position this time. They have each selected a store and will be competing based on this month’s sales turnover. I also heard that all of them have received support from their family and friends, but Anastasia went to a whole new level.”
Someone else inquired, “Where did her connections come from?”
“Who else could there be? It’s President Presgrave, of course. He has personally asked his upper management to visit Anastasia’s shop!”
“Wow!”
The other ladies at the front desk were so amazed that they let out surprised gasps, but Erica’s face was pale. If she hadn’t come to the company today, she wouldn’t even have known that Anastasia had been hooking up with Elliot Presgrave. Now that Elliot wanted to help Anastasia get promoted and receive a salary increment, he was willing to suppress his pride and ask his upper management to support her.
How close were they that he was willing to do that for her? Erica wasn’t going to believe that Anastasia never slept with Elliot.
“What a shameless person Anastasia is. How could she seduce the president?” Erica scoffed.
The other ladies at the front desk admired her courage. After all, no one in the company dared to scold Anastasia, let alone offend her.
“Hmph! She’s such a filthy woman. Does she even deserve President Presgrave? What a nasty woman,” Erica spat through gritted teeth in desperation to curse the hell out of Anastasia.
“Erica, why do you say so? Tell us about it! How do you know that Anastasia is a filthy woman?”
“She has an illegitimate child, and that child was born five years ago as a result of sleeping with another man. She has worked at a club, served customers, and slept with them just to study abroad. She was kicked out of her house eventually, though.”
