Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1694

Chapter 1694 Dinner Date

Desire surged beneath Julian’s raven-black eyes, whirling with an unstoppable force, making it hard for him to let her go, only wanting more. Just then, the sound of an approved key card came at the door, which the two heard.

Jessie was first to react, and she shoved the man away nearly immediately, then wiped her lips frantically as she returned to her normal self in a split second as though the kiss had never happened.

Apart from her slightly throbbing lips, the other thing she could barely conceal was her bright scarlet cheeks. Meanwhile, Bethany came in with Julian’s afternoon tea. However, to her dismay, she received a death stare instead of praise from her boss right as she entered.

“Your afternoon tea, Boss.”

“Did I ask for it?!” Julian growled through gnashed teeth as he glared daggers at Bethany, who, a shrewd assistant, instantly knew she had ruined her boss’ moment when she found Jessie keeping her back faced toward her the whole time. Her head buzzed, and she hurriedly put the tea down. “I, uh, I gotta go. See ya.”

With that, Bethany fled as her life depended on it. However, the wonderful mood had already been cut short. Jessie bit her lip as her face burned ablaze. Her head was still blank, and all she could think of was the kiss.

“I should go back to my room.” Jessie stood up, planning on leaving.

“I thought you wanted to take care of me?” Julian asked somewhat aggrievedly.

“Well, you look fine now,” explained Jessie as she bit her lip. Her eyes sparkled, but she dared not look him in the eye, for she was tingling all over, and she’d die of shyness if she stayed any longer.

“I’m going back to my room.” With that, Jessie grabbed her phone and fled.

Meanwhile, disappointment flashed in Julian’s eyes, but he was more happy than disappointed as he could feel her acceptance. At the very least, she didn’t hate being kissed by him. At that, he picked up his phone and dialed Bethany’s number.

In no time, the poor assistant entered the room gingerly. “Young Master.”
