Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Chapter 159

“Anastasia, did you think that I was going to kiss Hayley?” Elliot asked, wanting to know her real thoughts.

Becoming distant as soon as she heard the name ‘Hayley’ or anything to do with the woman, Anastasia smirked in response. “Whether you two kiss or not is your business.”

Meanwhile, Elliot did not want Anastasia to get off scot free for her behavior this afternoon, so he ressed, “Then could you explain why you clocked off work early, ignoring my calls and prepared all this spicy food to prank me? Is it because you are jealous?”

Stunned by his words, Anastasia then laughed. “Was I? The reason why I got off work early was because I thought the both of you were going on a date together, so I came in advance to pick Jared up. I didn’t pick up your calls because I didn’t hear my phone go off, and the reason why the table today was full of spicy food was because I was in the mood for something spicy. President Presgrave, you’re overthinking all this!”

Upon hearing that, the man was struck speechless.

Not wishing to continue this conversation any longer, Anastasia, who only realized that it was fast approaching 9 PM after looking at the clock, could only chase him out. “President Presgrave, it’s getting quite late now, so you should really leave.”

However, Elliot hinted that he wanted to stay for a bit longer and he murmured, “But I just took my meds, so I can’t drive for the time being. I’m afraid that I might feel sleepy behind the wheel.”
