Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Shirley’s gaze repeatedly darted toward Cole, and her thoughts were in turmoil. Has Zacharias asked me to come early to engineer misunderstandings with Cole? She dismissed this notion, considering it all to be mere coincidence. She couldn’t understand why Zacharias would resort to such tactics, as she didn’t see herself as being so important to him.

Just then, the car door opened, and Zacharias elegantly stepped out of the car. He nodded to Cole and exchanged a few words with Ren.

As Ren’s motorcade began to depart, Cole cast a deep and affectionate look in Shirley’s direction. She acknowledged him with a nod. A certain man closely observed this entire scene.

“Hand the car keys to someone else and come with me,” he insisted. He didn’t want to grant her any more leave. She had to remain by his side at all times during the coming period. She was resolute. “I’ll drive back by myself.”
