Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Chapter 170

Anastasia was no longer a young girl, so she was quite conscious of what was going on. She would not be easily affected just because someone was kind to her, and she definitely wasn’t going to sacrifice all of herself due to being touched by someone else’s kindness. She was now a very level-headed and logical person.

Meanwhile, she opened the door to see Elliot standing outside. He was dressed impeccably in a suit and he looked exactly like an elitist standing there.
