A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 584

"You mean the two in the mall? I can't stand that man! So, I stand up for that woman. You should praise me for what I did! Why are you so angry? Don't you think that I'm very righteous?"

"Is it a trifle to you?" Elijah glared at her. "I think you're too meddlesome."

"That man is not so angry about me. I don't understand why you are angry."

"Esther!" Elijah shouted and frightened her, "Why did you yell at me? I don't want to be deaf. So, you become a grumpy man after going to Korea?"

"If you poke your nose into someone else's business next time, you'll be grounded!" Elijah clutched her collar in frustration and put her on the sofa, "Go to take a bath. You're stinky!"

"Really?" Esther looked at his angry face and smelled her clothes.

She was sure he was angry, but she had no idea why he was angry.

"Smelly!" He uttered a word coldly.

"Elijah, you look sulky!"

"Shut up!" He said angrily.

He hurried back and called her but she did not answer his phone. He thought something happened to her and was very worried.

He could only call his men who were protecting her. His men reported what Esther had done recently, so Elijah knew that she poked her nose into others' business. She was such a meddlesome girl. Moreover, that man threw a playful look at Esther. Elijah was really mad.

"Elijah, I'll take a bath!" Esther pouted. "I can't figure out what is in your mind! Forget it. I'm tired."

It was not her business! It was impossible for him to never get angry.

"Do you know strange men can put you in danger?" Elijah stared at her back and scolded her.

"Are they more dangerous than you? You used to be a strange man to me. I can't think of a more dangerous man than you." Esther shrugged her shoulders and something came into her mind. she asked with a smile. "Are you jealous?"

He got up and walked over with a soft expression. "Never meddle in others' business again!"

She stared at him and asked curiously, "Are you really jealous?"

The corner of his lip twitched. He raised his dark eyes and bent his face to hers. "You want to have your neck broken?"

Esther was scared, shrunk her neck, and rolled her eyes. "I'm going to take a bath!"

When Esther went out of the bathroom in a bathrobe, Elijah leaned against the sofa. A ring box was on the tea table. Esther walked over and found he was still angry, so she pouted without saying anything.

Esther took the remote control, turned on the TV, and started watching it.

Since Esther came out and ignored him, Elijah was somewhat frustrated and could not help but purse his lips.

After she took a bath, her fair skin was watery and gave off an attractive fragrance. She didn't wear any makeup, but she was more pleasing to the eyes than those women dressed up.

She was as pure as a kid, and there was no deception in her world. She lived a very simple life.

A smile touched Elijah's lips.

Though Esther was watching TV, she kept observing Elijah out of the corner of her eye. She was stunned when she saw his smile.

She pursed her lips. "Don't snigger at me!"

Elijah curled his lips, reached out to take the box on the table, and opened it.

Esther was surprised when she saw a large diamond ring that looked expensive.

When she was astonished, he had stretched out his hand to take her hand, and put the ring on her finger, without saying love words.

"What do you mean? I don't want it" She pouted, very dissatisfied, and wanted to take it off.

"How dare you take it off!" He said in a cold voice.

Esther complained, "Do you want to give it to me?"

Elijah watched the TV. He looked indifferent with dark eyes. "Don't take it off!"

"Can't you say something nice?" Esther pouted, moved her body, and leaned on his shoulder. She hadn't seen him for two days, but he kept a poker face. How annoying he was.

When she got close to him and leaned against him like a lazy cat, Elijah held her shoulder with one hand and lifted her hand with his other hand. He looked at the ring on Esther's finger and couldn't help but say in a soft voice. "Do you like it?"

Esther looked at the beautiful ring, which set off her slender hand, "Yes!"

He gave her jewelry for the first time, so she loved it. "Did you buy it in Korea?"

"Yes!" He whispered. "Did you go to the Ball family for dinner yesterday?"

"Yes!" Esther nodded, "Well, I have raised 3 million for charity!"

"Christ gave it?" Elijah raised his eyebrow.

"Yes!" Esther thought of Christ's words, frowned, but didn't say anything more.

Elijah felt a little strange. When Esther raised money, the Ball family was unwilling to donate money. Christ always wanted the mountain forest in J City. Perhaps he made donations for other purposes! "Didn't he say anything else?"

Esther was stunned. "How do you know that?"

"Let me guess!" Elijah said indifferently, "He wants the land in J City, doesn't he?"
