Enchanted Nightfall: Falling for Destiny (Quintessa and Tyrone) novel Chapter 176

Quintessa: “Obviously.”

A silence fell between them once again.

Quintessa stole a glance at Tyrone. When he was quiet and composed, he really appeared stunningly aloof and profoundly inaccessible.

Tyrone was a man of many facets, each appearing as real as it was illusory.

He’d shown remarkable patience for her sake, and yet, Quintessa couldn’t help but wonder—was this affection, or was it all just a means to an end? After experiencing and being schemed against so much, one can't help but instinctively think the worst of everything and everyone.

It was a sad state of affairs, to always expect the worst.

“Do you believe her arrival was just coincidence?” Quintessa asked.

Tyrone: “Hmph."

How could it be a coincidence?

Being with Quintessa, he’d been so fixated on her that he’d neglected his surroundings.

Rachel, cunning as she was, but such people were, ironically, easier for Tyrone to predict, likely having made moves to investigate after speaking with Quintessa on the phone that morning. Having discovered Quintessa was at his private apartment, she followed.

Unfortunately for Rachel, she was outmaneuvered by Quintessa. When it came to schemes, the two women were evenly matched, but in shamelessness, Rachel could not measure up to Quintessa.

The journey passed in silence until Tyrone dropped Quintessa off at Harmony Retreat. Manny’s car was already waiting downstairs, pacing anxiously for Quintessa’s arrival.

“What’s with your place? Why the sudden renovation?” Manny queried, perplexed.
