A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 548

“He’s chasing after you and you can choose to get off!” Elijah said in a deep voice with a cold expression.

“Ah...” Esther froze. It was really Hudson; she did not expect that Hudson would chase after her. She became nervous and she knew that she could not get off the car at this moment.

Hudson was not thinking to stop the car at all. Elijah was driving steadily as he didn’t rush to leave Hudson too far, perhaps he was giving a little time for Esther to think.

In the silence and panic, Esther’s phone rang, and she was shocked. It was Hudson’s phone number. She pressed the answer button. “Hudson, please go home!”

“Esther! Please get off the car, follow me and don’t marry him!” Hudson was holding the phone tightly with his eyes widely opened while casting an angry look. His eyes looked furious and sharp with a stern aura while looking at Elijah’s Veyron.

“Hudson! Don’t follow me anymore. I do not want to see Hudson anymore. You’re the one who abandoned me, you will never get me back. Why did you treat me like that in the first place and you feel regret about it now?” She felt tensed and wanted to make a quick decision. “How could I be the person who is always ready at your call?”

“Don’t marry him!” Hudson only said this single sentence.

“Hudson! Don’t force me. If you force me again, I will die!” Her words literally made him stop his car immediately.

“Esther, I’m not forcing you. I will clear my affair and allow myself to be single again. I’m not forcing you; I will wait for you!” Hudson hung up the phone.

Esther was holding the phone while she felt weak. Were Hudson and Winnie going to divorce? After she thought for a while, she called back. Her voice sounded firm, “Hudson, we can’t go back to how we used to be. We can’t. Even if you’re single now, we just can’t. Once you lose me, you will never get me back!”

She hung up the phone after she finished talking.

Esther frowned. She felt extremely uneasy. She did not want this kind of ending. It seemed like Winnie really loved Hudson. She even said that she could not live without Hudson!

How about herself?

Wouldn’t she die as well?

Yes, she would not.

The car quickly reached the garage. Esther started to cry; she bit her lips so that she would not cry it out. Elijah stretched out his hand, pulled her body into his arms. “If you want to cry, just cry. This is the last time for you to cry for him!”

There was a vigorous and powerful male voice hovering above her head, she was startled for a while.

He held her in his arms and stroke her lightly.

Esther was like a ship wandering in the middle of the ocean. It was as if she had passed a few storms and finally stopped at the port. She allowed herself to be hugged by him and her tears just fell by itself.

She was crying harshly in his arms. In the silent night, her sound of weeping became more depressed.

It was dark in the car. Elijah hugged her tightly as her tears were burning him. He was unable to see her face. Yet, he could not help lowering his head, then grabbed both of her arms and kissed her forehead, “Good girl, we’re home!”

What a gentle kiss.

It fell on Esther’s forehead.

She was shocked in the darkness. She quickly moved away from him. She thought that she might be crazy to even seek warmth from him.

“Girl, let’s get married tomorrow!” It was the same sentence, there was not any emotion in his tone.

“I’m still under aged. I can’t get married!” She replied and got off the car.

There was a faint smile as Elijah slightly pursed his lips, but Esther did not notice about it. She wiped her tears and rubbed her nose—this lunatic even mentioned about getting married, was it like a child play to him? We were not in love, how to get married?

As she was standing in front of the apartment, Esther stared at the sky quietly and wondered whether Hudson had gone back or not?

“Are you still thinking of him?” There was a low voice coming from behind.

When she turned around, there was an evil and vicious aura surrounding the man behind her. The aura was expanding quickly at the lobby on the first floor of the apartment. If he did not act fast enough to conquer her heart, she would think a lot about it. While he was thinking not to be too harsh on her, he realized that if he was being too gentle, there would be no progress at all.

Esther closed her eyes again; she turned her face to the other side. She acted stubbornly and refused to explain while silently protesting his questioning. Did he even want to control her thoughts?

Elijah stepped forward and pinched her chin. He turned her face around. “I’ll give you another ten minutes, if you still think of him after ten minutes, then you will have to face the consequences!”

Just a single sentence made Esther become more furious. She closed her eyes and shouted. “You can’t control whoever I want to think of!”

He just pinched her chin gently. He did not use too much strength. He looked at her with a sense of pain flashing through his eyes, yet she closed her eyes without knowing about it.

There was no other reaction from him as she was waiting for quite some time. She slowly opened her eyes and found out that Elijah was looking at her face. And he felt more and more eager. However, the vicious aura was still lingering around. In his eyes, there was a fight between the resentment and tender sentiments.

Esther was startled as her eyes was slowly blended into his gaze. There was a trace of astonishment and shock. The way he looked at her made her realize that she could not see through his eyes.

Their gazes were entangling with each other.

Indulged.

Entangled.

He suddenly hugged her and carried her into the elevator. There were some senses of urgency and struggling which made his heart beat very fast.

“Elijah Perry!” Esther murmured as she looked at him in his arms. She was unable to explain her feelings in this moment. She was horrified and shocked. She was feeling uneasy and stuffy. “My heart hurts, it really hurts!”
