Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1829

Chapter 1829

Ellen was a little bewildered by the sight. Wasn’t she supposed to eat with Connor and his family? Why were there strangers here?

She smiled politely and greeted, “Good to see you, Uncle Connor and Aunt Olivia.”

“Ellie, here, let me introduce you to them.” Connor said to her, “This is my old friend, Murray Fuller, and beside him is his wife, Christina. And this man here is their son, Harvey Fuller.”

Ellen gave the couple a courteous smile before glancing at the young man. “Nice to meet you.”

“Wow, she’s gorgeous!” Christina praised, grinning from ear to ear.

“Of course, she is. All of the girls in our family are pretty,” Olivia immediately replied.

Harvey immediately got up to pour tea for Ellen, and she hurriedly thanked him. Ever since Ellen entered the room, Harvey’s eyes had been glued to her face. He thought his date today would be just an ordinary girl, but he didn’t expect the heavens to give him such a huge surprise.

Ellen was one of the innocent yet pure girls whom he rarely saw. In particular, the sweet way she smiled put him in a better mood at first glance. Moreover, he had been informed about Ellen while he was on his way to the restaurant. She was a relocatee from Lockwood Village, and she even had a small fortune. Who wouldn’t like a beautiful and wealthy woman?

Just then, the dishes were served, and the two families ate while chatting. Ellen only had a few bites when she heard Connor’s voice. “Ellie is beautiful and kind-hearted, but she seems lonely from living alone for a while now.”

Hearing that, Ellen hurriedly explained, “Uncle Connor, I’m doing good. I’m not lonely.”

“Ellie, Connor just wants you to have someone to take care of you and protect you, to give you a shoulder to lean on,” Olivia said.

Ellen’s heart skipped a beat as she had an epiphany. Did Connor invite her for a meal to set her up on a blind date? Was he trying to introduce her to a man?
