Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1820

Chapter 1820

Bang!

Behind Garrett, a car door was slammed shut, prompting him to jump in fright. He turned around and saw a tall, strapping male with a thunderous look striding toward him under the streetlight. Instantly, he recognized

the man.

“It’s you.” Garrett was still in a drunken state. If he was sober, he would not dare to go against this young man.

However, as he recalled being thrown out of the place this morning, he was filled with anger. He pointed at Jared and yelled, “W–Why are you here? I’m warning you, this is our family matter. You’re an outsider, so it’s none of your business!”

“Do you want to get lost now or wait for the police to get here?” Jared asked coldly.

“Y–You brat! Do you know who I am? I’m Ellen’s uncle, so how dare you behave so impudently toward me!” Not only did Garrett show his drunken ways, but he also attempted to take advantage of his seniority.

Jared knocked on the door and shouted, “Open the door, Ellen.”

As soon as she heard his voice, she instantly flung the door open, for she was worried that Garrett would hit Jared. At that instance, Garrett rushed over and attempted to drag her as she unlocked the door. Instantly, Jared tugged Ellen behind him and stood protectively in front of her. Subsequently, he grabbed hold of Garrett’s arms and shoved him aside.

Garrett stumbled backward as his expression turned ugly out of anger. “Huh. How dare you guys lay hands on me! Do you seriously think I wouldn’t be able to do anything to you?”

After saying that, he found a rock on the ground and grabbed it to hit them with it. Ellen’s face turned pale as a sheet upon noticing his action. “Stop, Garrett!”

Yet, it was a second too late as he had already hit Jared’s body. Worried that Garrett would injure Ellen, Jared turned to her and instructed, “Gather your belongings and get into my car.”

As a result, she hurriedly rushed out of the house with her bag in her hand and noticed that Garrett was in a frenzy under the streetlight. He grabbed the rock and attempted to hit Jared with it, but Jared easily dodged the attack.

The next second, Garrett shifted his target to Ellen and attempted to strike her with the rock. As soon as Jared caught sight of that, he lifted his hand to shield her. The rock landed hard on the back of his hand, and she saw the sharp, jagged edges piercing through him as a streak of blood dripped across his hand under the faint light.

At that point, Jared flared up and kicked Garrett aside before dragging Ellen to head over to the car.
