Enchanted Nightfall: Falling for Destiny (Quintessa and Tyrone) novel Chapter 197

Violet was a bundle of nerves, and tomorrow night seemed like an eternity away to her. She knew all too well what Quintessa had in mind, and the mere thought of the upcoming events sent shivers down her spine.

Taking a deep breath, she turned to Reuben, her voice laced with urgency. “Reuben, Quintessa is your responsibility tomorrow. Make sure you take good care of her and bring her back safe and sound.”

Reuben, puzzled by Violet's anxiety, nodded. “Don't worry, Violet. I’ll make sure Quinn is alright.”

Violet emphasized each word with grave intensity, “You must bring her back unharmed.”

Reuben, a bit taken aback, acknowledged with a firm nod, “Yeah, I’ll protect Quinn, no matter what.”

At 8 pm the next evening, Reuben pulled up in his car to pick up Quintessa.

Quintessa eyed his ride and thought to herself, “This lad’s got some serious cash!”

She hadn’t paid much attention to Reuben before, but now that she did, she realized that despite his shyness, he was well-mannered and humble – the product of good upbringing and, no doubt, a well-off family.

As Quintessa didn’t have an invite to the Lott family’s grand soirée, she had planned to sneak in, but now, with Reuben by her side, she could waltz in with her head held high.

To her, Reuben was a godsend.

When Reuben saw Quintessa, his cheeks flushed with color. “Quinn, you look stunning!”

Quintessa was dressed to kill in a strapless black gown, with a thigh-high slit revealing her graceful legs that seemed to shimmer as she moved.

Flipping her hair, Quintessa teased, “Well, that’s because I’ve always been this gorgeous.”

Reuben chuckled and hurried to open the car door for her.

On the drive, Quintessa probed Reuben, “With your family background, why choose acting?”
