A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 616

The other end had said something, Elijah hung up the phone and looked down at her.

Esther said with a blush, "Help me get dressed!"

He went to the bedroom, got her a nightgown and helped her put it on, then told her with a smile. "Hudson and Winnie are remarried!"

Esther paused for a moment and smiled, "Hudson finally got it right!"

"He has registered a new company in the United States to fully acquire the shares of Ball Group!" Elijah added.

"What does it mean?"

"He wants to destroy Ball Group!"

"Ah—" Esther was stunned.

"It's all because of you!" Elijah let out a sigh. "I don't know if it's right or wrong for Winnie to remarry him!"

Elijah put on his pyjamas, walked to the coach, lit a cigarette, and took a drag.

For a moment, Esther understood what was going on and looked gloomy. Hudson couldn't accept the fact that Christ had cheated them. She went to knead the dough and remained silent. Some sadness lingered in her heart and she thought, 'Hudson, let it go, we really can never go back, can't we just live happily ever after?'

The cake was baked in no time.

Esther served two pieces on the plate and handed them to Elijah.

As Esther was about to eat the cake, her phone rang again. This phone was recently bought for her by Elijah. During this period, her phone kept getting broken and she didn't know how many phones she had replaced.

Esther went to get her phone and glanced at the screen, on which was an unfamiliar number she didn't recognize. When she picked up, she heard Christ's voice. "It's you?"

Why did he suddenly call her? Esther was suspicious and confused.

Since she knew that she wasn't his daughter, Esther was relieved. For some reason, she didn't like Christ at all and always rejected him inexplicably.

"What's the matter?"

"Esther, I'm so sorry, I want to apologize to you face to face!" Christ's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I don't need your apology, and I don't want to see you!" Esther said sternly, "I don’t want to see a man as unscrupulous as you. Sorry, please don't make me lose my appetite before my meal!"

With that, she hung up the phone decisively.

"Christ?" Elijah raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah!" Esther frowned and lost her appetite. After a while, Esther said, "I'd like to meet Hudson, can I?"

Elijah raised his dashing eyebrows, "You want to stop him?"

"I don't know, I'm just a little uneasy!" Esther said honestly.

"Okay! After we finish eating, I'll drive you there!"

Elijah drove Esther to Ball Group.

He didn't get out of the car with her, but waited for her in the car.

Esther walked into Ball Group and suddenly, a deep voice rang out behind her. "Esther?"

Esther stopped in her tracks instantly, turned her head around and saw Hudson walking towards her.

"Hudson!" She hadn't seen Hudson for a few days, yet she hadn't expected him to become so haggard. Beneath his bloodshot eyes were thick dark circles, unkempt clothes crumpled on him, while his deeply concave cheeks were full of stubble. What worried her, however, were his eyes, which were hollow and cold, seemingly had lost their eternal lustre.

"Hudson." Walking quickly over to him, Esther looked at him with distress.

Hudson gave her a reassuring smile wearily. "Esther, I'm fine."

Esther knew Hudson was heartbroken, but any words were futile at this point, and she could only sigh silently, hoping that time would heal the wounds in his heart.

"Why are you here?" With a bitter smile, Hudson suddenly wrapped his arms tightly around Esther's body and buried his face deeply between her shoulders. In the silence, his tall body twitched vaguely, and Esther felt there were warm tears penetrating her clothes and falling on her skin.

"Hudson!" Her hand also tightened around Hudson's body until he seemed to have calmed down, and Esther then said, "I'm here to see you! Shall we go to your office?"

"Okay." Suppressing his emotions, he returned to his usual indifferent face, but his crimson bloodshot eyes were hollow and appalling as Hudson embraced Esther.

There was a complicated light in his eyes, as if he hadn't expected her to come, but also as if he had thought of the purpose of her coming. Nevertheless, he still said in a deep voice without hurry, "Let's go to my office!"

This was the first time they had seen each other since that day. Both of them acted as if that incident had never happened. She smiled brightly, but when he saw her again, he shed tears!

"Okay!" Esther nodded.

Both of them took the elevator.

Hudson said to his secretary, "Give me a glass of juice and a cup of coffee!"

He hadn't forgotten that Esther liked to drink juice.

Soon, the juice was served and the secretary retreated from the office.

"Esther…"
