Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201 Did You Sleep in My Bed?

After breakfast, Anastasia grabbed her purse and made her way to the door. As she did so, she raised a brow and glanced at the man on the couch before saying, “President Presgrave, I’m going to pick up Jared now. Are you planning to stay here?”

Exasperation filled Elliot when he heard this. He wanted to go with her, but the woman clearly had no intention of letting him accompany her.

He rose from the couch and said, “I’ll drop you off at Nigel’s place.” He didn’t sound like he would take ‘no’ for an answer.

“No, it’s fine. I can get a cab.”

“My car is right downstairs.”

“I don’t—”

“I know where Nigel lives!” Elliot shot her a defiant look.

It was then that she realized she had indeed forgotten to ask for Nigel’s address. She looked at the time, and upon seeing that it was only 7.30AM, she didn’t want to call Nigel.

“Well, only if you’re free. I don’t want to impose—”

“I am.” With that, Elliot turned and walked out the door.

Downstairs was Rey, who had already driven the car over. Elliot slid into the backseat while Anastasia followed suit.

Then, Anastasia addressed Rey out of concern, “Mr. Osbourne, I hope your father’s doing alright!”

He replied with ease, “Thank you for asking, Miss Tillman. The surgery went very well.”

“I’m glad to hear that,” she said with a genuinely happy smile.

Then, she noticed that the man next to her had put on a change of clothes. He was no longer dressed in the white shirt he had worn yesterday, but a gray one. She frowned slightly. Perhaps Rey brought him a change of clothes. Being the clean freak he is, he would never wear something from the night before.

Upon thinking about this, she wondered whether it meant that Elliot had taken a shower in her bathroom. Perhaps he showered last night, but did he sleep in my bed without any clothes?!

It was as if her mind imploded at that moment. She swallowed and while she wanted to ask him about it, she didn’t want to do it in front of Rey.

Instead, she reached for her phone and texted her question to Elliot.
