Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1748

Chapter 1748 Parenting

Julian sobered up a little just then as he was afraid that he might have frightened her with his shouting just now. He pressed his forehead against hers. “Did I scare you?”

“What? The fact that you kissed me, or the fact you yelled at Ashley?” Jessie smiled. A chuckle escaped his lips. “This is all your fault.”

“How is that my fault?” She blinked innocently. You kissed me, and that’s supposed to be my fault? How? “Because you’re too pretty. I couldn’t hold myself back.”

“You’re not cutting her pay. She’s a hardworking assistant, alright?” Jessie said solemnly. Julian gulped slightly at her serious tone. “Fine, I won’t cut her pay.” She heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that. “Get some sleep. I’ll head back and see if they need my help.”

I almost crossed the line. If Ashley hadn’t called me, I might have left a bad impression on Jessie. Darn, I shouldn’t have treated the first time so rashly. I don’t want her to remember her first time as some sloppy sex during someone else’s wedding, after all.

He nodded after snapping out of his thoughts. “Sure. I’m fine now. You should head over and help them.”

Once Jessie was gone, he lay on the bed and called Ashley, who was still shocked after the call. “Young Master Julian?” “Don’t worry. I won’t cut your pay. Orville can deal with the car problem.”

“I see. Did I interrupt something, sir?” Her guess was correct. “What are you talking about?” he snapped. “You were with Miss Jessie, weren’t you?”

Julian was speechless. She knows me well, huh? He snorted. “If you ask one more stupid question, you’re not getting paid this month.” Quickly, Ashley said, “Please, no, sir. Pretend I said nothing. You two have fun.”

He hung up soon after. His mind was still replaying the scene of the earlier kiss, which sobered him up completely.
