A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 758

“What are you so afraid of? If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear!” Ernie said in a low tone.

“I’d still like to keep a distance…” Sylvie said as she lowered her head.

“Haha! I can keep myself under control!” Ernie retracted his gaze, but his eyes were like an abyss. He zipped up his pants before her, “Don’t worry, you’re my lifeline, so I will protect you well until you become my woman!”

Sylvie shouted, “Ernie Hughes! Will you cut it out? I don’t care if you feel wronged or what, but don’t overestimate yourself, ok? I am and will always be Marley Hughes’ wife. You’re his cousin, so stop fooling around, alright? I’m really glad you saved me today!”

“But I haven’t felt any sense of gratitude or appreciation!” Ernie said lightly, “Besides, why do you think I’m just playing around? Sylvie, you made your mistake when you helped the Hughes family! You shouldn’t have let me meet you! I can’t stop wanting you ever since I met you! So, what can I do?”

“Whatever! Let me treat your wound first, you’re losing too much blood!” Her hands were already filled with his blood.

“Sylvie, one day, you will be my woman! There’s no woman I can’t have!”

Sylvie sneered and said, “I know you’re quite capable and not what you appear to be on the surface, and that you’re actually quite outstanding. But Ernie, not everything will go your way, that’s just the way the world is. Cut it out! I’m not the one you want. Even if you have my body, you won’t have my affection!”

Sylvie said this with such determination that Ernie suddenly felt a hint of fear inside him. He didn’t know why he felt this way, but he just drooped his eyes.

Sylvie silently helped to bandage the wound on his head. It was a serious wound and would probably leave a scar. They had to hurry to a hospital to take care of it.

Suddenly, Ernie’s phone rang again.

He looked at the caller; it was Marley, and it was probably urgent.

Ernie stared at his phone but didn’t answer it. There was no telling whether his expression was that of anger or something else. He pursed his lips and said in a hoarse voice, “What a lovely couple…”

After a slight pause, he handed his phone to Sylvie, “Here, you talk to him…”

Sylvie’s heart skipped a beat, and she looked anxiously at Ernie.

He already handed her his phone.

Sylvie looked at the caller; it was Marley indeed. Her bag and phone were still on the sofa from the banquet, so she didn’t have them on her. She picked up the call, and Marley’s voice immediately boomed form the other end, “Ernie, where did you take Sylvie?”

“Marley, it’s me!” Sylvie quickly explained.

“Sylvie? Where are you?”

“I, I’m not sure?”

“Where’s Ernie? What happened to you? How come you’re with him?”

“I’m fine!” Sylvie quickly said.

At this time, someone was knocking at the door. Sylvie hastily said, “I’m not sure where I am, I’ll be back soon, don’t worry!”

“Sylvie! Damn it, what did he do to you?”

At this time, Ernie took the phone back and said sarcastically, “You can’t even protect your own woman; what kind of man are you? You don’t deserve Sylvie! If you want her, come find her!”

“Fuck!” Marley roared as he listened to the dial tone from the other end of his phone, then he shouted, “Ernie, if you dare touch Sylvie, I’m going to kill you!”

But there was no one to hear. Marley felt like thrashing his phone at the moment.

Ernie, on the other hand, was in a good mood after hanging up on Marley. He walked to the door and took some clothes, as well as a lady’s long black dress.

He handed the dress to Sylvie, “Get changed!”

Sylvie took the clothes and headed to the restroom.

Then, she changed her clothes.

When she came out, Ernie was smoking a cigarette and sat on the sofa. The glass door was open, and Ernie looked at her and marveled at her slender black figure.

The one-piece black dress made her body shape look even more slender. The hem of the dress was just above her knee, revealing her white skin and sexy pair of legs that were sure to catch a lot of men’s attention.

“Shall we get going, Ernie?” She said as she lowered her head.

“Let’s go!” Ernie got up.

Sylvie was about to turn around, when she accidentally slipped and almost fell down. In a split second, she saw a powerful figure swoop by, and a warm hand grabbed her by the waist.

The tip of her nose was right in front of his chest, and his clothes’ material lightly grazed her skin, and the slight scent of aftershave seemed to fill the air around her. Sylvie felt incredibly awkward, then before she could think, her hands reached out and pushed herself out of Ernie’s embrace.

Sylvie kept her head down and didn’t dare to look up at Ernie in the eyes.

Seeing her act like this, Ernie couldn’t help but feel even more despair!

“Let’s get going!” She calmed herself down, then kept her head down and headed out.

When they were out, she realized the place was a three-storied building. The halls were littered with items, like a warehouse.

At this time, someone walked up to Ernie and said, “Bro, there’s a ton of people out there!”

Ernie frowned and asked, “How many?”

“Dozens!”

“How many we got?”
