A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 589

The car stopped at the gate of the apartment, Esther got out of the car alone, Elijah's car drove quickly past her, Esther did not see him. He watched the small figure in the rearview mirror get out of the car, and suppressed his anger. Fortunately, she just had a meal with that man instead of doing anything else!

Philip was a gentleman, and he just sent her back when he said that he would send her back after having dinner.

Esther was a little tired.

In the past few days, she had her period, and her body had not been well-rested. Elijah was busy with Kattie’s affairs and did not take care of her meals. In the past, Hudson would ask people to cook pork rib soup, hen soup, and bird’s nest porridge for her. Because she was exceptionally weak when she had per menstruation, her body could not bear coldness.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Elijah's leather shoes in the cabinet. They were still wet and looked like he had just returned because the umbrella leaning against the door was still dripping.

Esther was taken aback, looking around for him, but saw nobody, "Elijah, are you back? How is Kattie?"

There was no response. Esther went in and looked for him. There was no one in every room.

Strange!

Then, she changed her shoes, her clothes were a little wet. That was after she declined Philip's kindness she returned his clothes to him, she came back with an umbrella and got wet.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened.

Elijah in slippers and holding a bag in his hand, which looked like a pile of clothes inside, as if he had walked in from next door.

"Are you back?" Esther looked up and saw him.

He just glanced at her indifferently, then put the pile of clothes on the counter, Esther could see that it looked like a lady's clothes. She was taken aback, and pointed to the other side, "That is also your apartment?"

Elijah was silent, and then passed her indifferently and walked into the room.

She frowned. "How is Kattie's recovery? Not good?"

He still didn't answer, and then went into the study. He was surrounded by an aura of indifference, even if he didn't speak, she could feel the coldness radiating from his body.

Esther didn't care, thinking about how he had hung up the phone, and now it looked like Kattie's treatment was not going well, she had caused trouble, and she felt more guilty, so she dare not ask anymore.

Then she went into the bathroom, took a shower, and planned to ask Elijah after.

Esther came out of the shower relaxed, Elijah seemed to be still in the study.

She poured a glass of water, walked in, put the glass on the desk, and asked gently, "Is Kattie recovering well?"

He did not respond.

Elijah was sitting on a leather chair. He looked as if he was stuck in it. She couldn't see his face. She could only vaguely see the hair on top of his head, the long legs that stretched out beside the table, and the rising smoke. Did he smoke? Esther stared in wonder, he must have something to worry about, otherwise, he wouldn't smoke in the study.

Esther still hesitated and walked over, just thinking that she should share his worries and solve his problems, she should be the person he could confess to.

But how could she know that Elijah's eyes were following her all the time, watching her get into the car in the clothes of a strange man, he chased them without even thinking about it, and then saw that they went to a snack bar together under an umbrella?

They spent half an hour eating together, and she was very unhappy.

Esther walked slowly in front of him, watching him stuck in a leather chair, his face complexion dark.

Esther didn't feel good, he was more than just a little depressed, this time the trouble must be serious.

"Elijah, what's the matter? Is Kattie not recovering well?" Esther asked him, looking at him. It was rare to see Elijah like this. She always thought he was a person who would not show his emotions, that he would silently solve every big problem.

Elijah lifted his eyes and slowly faced Esther's worried face. The irritability in his heart eased slightly. He was not annoyed by Kattie's treatment. Kattie was recovering well and would speak soon. He was annoyed by her now!

"Have you eaten?" He asked suddenly.

"I did." Esther thought he was blaming her for not coming back earlier, feeling a little guilty in her heart. "Who did you eat with?" Elijah decided to give her another chance, maybe he thinks too much into it.

"With friends!" She didn't know why, at this moment, Esther paused and lied instinctively.

"Female?" Elijah's voice had sunk.

Esther froze for a second, and murmured, "Yeah."

But because of her hesitation, Elijah became even angrier.

She dared to lie, he would rather that he read too much into it, but she lied, which showed that she didn't want him to know that she had dinner with a man.

Esther was uncomfortable being looked at by Elijah.

She wanted to say that she was with a strange man, but she didn't say anything when she thought of his warning a few days ago and thought that he was not happy today.

"I... I'm a little tired today. I will take a nap and do my homework later." Esther said in a low voice, his anger is raging, it was better to wait for him to get calm before coming to comfort him.

Elijah tugged and pulled her into his arms, Esther fell on top of him.

"Ah..." She was in a panic, the cup on the table fell on the carpet, and there was a muffled sound. The water was scattered on Esther's body, it was slightly hot.

"What are you doing?" Esther just wanted to scold Elijah, but when she raised her head and her vision suddenly went dark, his face fell forcibly, Esther hadn't reacted yet and had fallen into Elijah's deep kiss.
