Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2098

Finally, Ethan’s car arrived at the final destination. It was a private restaurant where he

originally wanted to invite her to dinner. Alas, she rejected his offer to have dinner

together. By now, it was almost 9.00PM, and of course, Ethan hadn’t eaten enough

because he wasn’t used to the food at the barbeque place.

Josephine, on the other hand, wasn’t full either from the dinner earlier on. Since Ethan

brought her to the restaurant, she sat down and ordered. Fine dining was in a league

of its own due to its beautiful plating and the expensive fresh ingredients used for the

dish. Given her salary, Josephine couldn’t afford to eat this kind of food, so on that

evening, she was lucky enough to enjoy a delicious dinner.

The restaurant was located at a high enough location that one could admire the

beautiful scenery along the river. After Josephine had eaten enough, she stood there

while admiring the scenery. After a while, she suddenly felt a hand grabbing her from

behind her. The next moment, she noticed Ethan walking over, and his slender arm

directly pulled her toward him while her body was against the railing.

Josephine got nervous. Why is he trying to be so intimate?We aren’t at this stage yet!

She could smell the faint smell of sandalwood from his body, making her heart pound.

She wasn’t sure if she was dizzy from overeating or if it was because of his presence.

In any case, Josephine felt it was time to go back.

“Mr. Quarles, it’s late. I should go back.” As soon as Josephine finished speaking, she

turned around and pushed his arm away before walking out of his encirclement.

Noticing that Ethan smiled and picked up his car keys. “Okay, I’ll send you home.”

“It’s alright. I can easily take a cab from here, so I don’t want to trouble you.” Just as

Josephine finished speaking, she picked up her bag and left the private room.

Suddenly, Ethan followed her into the elevator as he couldn’t let her take a cab home

alone that late at night. When Josephine saw him follow her into the lift, she thanked

him. “Thank you for treating me to dinner tonight.”

“You just treated me to a meal too, didn’t you?” he replied. Hearing that, Josephine

couldn’t help but laugh as just a cup of tea at the restaurant cost as much as what he

ate in a barbeque restaurant!
