Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1002

“Pfft!” Angela spat her tea out onto the floor, drawing everyone’s baffled gaze. She covered her mouth as she coughed. “I choked on the tea.”

“What’s the hurry? No one’s snatching it from you,” Daphne commented.

“Daphne, I think you’re right. I’d rather see someone doting on Ann and stay by her side. She is timid and tends to depend on others. Richard is not her Mr. Right.” Jennifer came to terms with the outcome.

“That’s right. Angela should find someone like that too. It’s easy to have problems when the man is rarely present round the clock,” Daphne added.

“True. So, it’s a good thing that the engagement is called off. Though that Richard guy has the looks and capability, we’re not lucky enough to be his family. Let’s just forget it. We’ll find someone reliable for Ann.”

“Yeah, so put your worries at rest. Ann is still young and there’s no need to rush. The fact that Richard calls off the engagement himself shows that he doesn’t want to string Ann along.

He’s a mature one. The last time I met him, he stands out in every way, but his attitude is too cold. He doesn’t seem like a caring and loving person.”

Speechless, Angela gazed at her mother as she wished for her to stop. Though she was clueless at the moment, she was afraid that her mother had to take back her words one day.

Seeing how her family was not let down by the issue, Annie was in a good mood as she muttered, “I won’t marry anyone for now. I wanna go on a trip to loosen up myself.”

Following that, the conversation revolved around how men should pay more attention to either the family or career under Daphne and Jennifer’s lead.

Angela left her seat unobtrusively to take some fresh air in the garden. Lifting her head, she gazed at the starry sky, which reminded her of the time Richard accompanied her to watch the stars at the base.

On that very night, not only did she watch the starry sky, she was also deeply enchanted by the man. However, could she have that kind of life? Could she even rewind the time?

It’s awful of me to think about this when Annie’s engagement has just been called off.
