A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 523

“Because I should be getting married soon! I love Winnie. She doesn’t cause trouble and doesn’t play tricks. She doesn’t bother me too much and most importantly, she’s gentle and intelligent and can help me!” he said heartlessly.

But she was stunned. The person she loved the most was going to marry someone else and was talking about her good points.

Her heart was broken, broken into million pieces. It was bleeding, it was hurting!

Esther bit her lips and blinked her large eyes repeatedly. She tried to look strong, on her long lashes were dews of tears but she wasn’t crying. She stared at Hudson, “Mr. Ball, then I’ll wish you the best. I’m fine, I just want to go shopping. I’ll be back when I’m tired! Also, don’t make someone follow me! Otherwise, you know, I’ll run away!”

Hudson was taken aback, there was a hint of sorrow deep in his eyes but it disappeared in an instant, “Fine, go!”

“Let’s go!” said Esther coldly to the driver. She stopped crying but the agony was all over her face.

Around midnight at K Bar.

The moment she went into the bar she was shocked by the atmosphere! It was lit!

She was about to turn around and leave but she suddenly heard people bidding, “Three hundred thousand for a night!”

“Four hundred thousand!”

“Five hundred thousand!”

“Come with me, I’ll pay eight hundred thousand!”

Esther was stunned. She looked in that direction dumbfoundedly.

She then saw a beautiful man standing in the middle of the stage. He had long black hair and flawless facial features. His eyes were cold and expressionless. He was standing on the stage just like that, ignoring the crazy old women bidding below the stage.

“Ah, Winter, Winter… My Winter… You’re so handsome!”

“Winter… You belong to me tonight!”

Shit, this was a host club. The women were trying to buy that man! The man on the stage looked wintry and resigned. He obviously disliked the women, so why would he stay there?

Esther suddenly felt sorry for him. A man like that could only wait to be bought by these thirsty and crazy old women. She couldn’t help but walked over and yelled, “Two million, he’s mine tonight!”

Everyone was stunned hearing her, they looked back and stared at Esther.

Esther blinked and her mouth felt bitter. She glanced at the plump women who had heavy make-up on and felt disgusted. She looked into their thirsty eyes, they seemed like they would wring him dry. Whatever, she would be nice this time around and rescue him!

The price she yelled out stunned everyone, even the men in the rooms on the second floor were taken aback. They all looked down unconsciously.

“Two million, deal or no deal? Can he come with me now?” Esther threw her gold card on the counter.

It was quiet and everyone was looking at this cute little lady like she was some rare animal. They couldn’t believe that she came here to buy a man at such a young age!

“Five million!” growled a man with a deep voice from upstairs. Everyone looked up to the second floor. There was smoke around him, she couldn’t make out the man’s expression due to the faint light and the smog. Though, she could see his sharp and laser-like gaze through the dark.

The man stood up and walked downstairs.

Esther frowned, she only knew that the man moved and she was still staring at the second floor.

She was distracted by the person on the stage, but she now lost interest. Five million, she didn’t have that much on her card. She was depressed, to begin with, and didn’t want to deal with people right now.

Mr. Ball was going to marry someone else, nothing meant anything to her now!

Before that man could approach her, she grabbed her card and looked at the man on the stage, “Sorry, I don’t have that much money and I cannot save you!”

The man on the stage was slightly taken aback, he finally took a good look at Esther.

She was about to turn around and leave when someone stopped her. She walked into a person’s wide and warm chest. The scent of cologne and the waft of stale cigarette smoke attacked her senses and she stumbled a few steps backwards.

“Sorry, please excuse me!” She didn’t even look up and tried to walk to the other side.

But the person grabbed her shoulder. She was stunned, she saw a slender hand grabbing her wrist.

She looked up annoyedly and they exchanged glances. The man stared at her, he didn’t think that he would meet her here.

The person before him, her cute face was filled with misery. Her eyes were swollen and it was obvious that she cried. She had a nice-looking neck and a large set of eyes. She stared at him with both eyes wide open because she recognized this person!

After that, there was curiosity in Elijah’s eyes. He arched his sexy lips and smirked wickedly. He snorted, “Miss Price, so we meet again!”

She remembered this face and this voice. He was the man from the casino…

Suddenly, she felt like blood all over her body coagulated. She never would’ve thought that the handsome man she bumped into would be Elijah.

What a coincidence!

She felt unlucky, she was bidding against him. The man who yelled five million was him! She decided to pretend not to know him, “Sir, the man on the stage is yours!”
