Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2135

“You don’t have to send me off. My friend will be picking me up. Go back to sleep, hmm?” Josephine kissed Ethan on the cheek and added, ‘I’ll contact you later.”

Ethan checked the time and realized that Josephine had awoken half an hour earlier. He intended to send her off, but his alarm hadn’t gone off. Seeing that she was leaving, he suddenly reached out his hand and held onto her.

Josephine was dressed professionally, giving her the appearance of being both elegant and capable. Ethan really didn’t want to let her leave like this.

She fell on Ethan’s blanket, her face flushed. “What are you doing?” she coquettishly murmured as she fluffed her long hair. “I miss you! I’ve missed you all night,” Ethan said, blinking his eyes pitifully as if he were an aggrieved child. ‘Are you not going to compensate me for that?”

All sorts of images flashed across Josephine’s mind. Compensate? What does he mean by this? Just as she was having impure thoughts, the man sat up and drew her into his embrace. Then, he gave her a peck on the neck and said, “You can go now.”

Josephine’s face turned completely red. Fine. I’m overthinking! She then dashed out the door so that Ethan wouldn’t notice her flushed cheeks. Truth was, Josephine didn’t have any friends to pick her up, so she hailed a cab instead. After reaching the company, she devoted all her attention to her work.

Around 10.00AM, Ethan received Atticus’ call. Atticus asked Ethan if they could meet for lunch because he had some job matters to report. “Okay. I’ll meet you at a restaurant near the company. Bring Josephine as well.”

“I’ll surely bring Miss Jacobson along, Atticus replied. After hanging up the phone, he looked at the woman sitting on the couch and stated, “Mr. Quarles asked me to bring Josephine together for lunch.”

“Whatever for? It’s enough for him to have my company,” Tori said as she sat with her legs. crossed. She had dressed up on purpose today. since she had requested that Atticus set up a meeting with Ethan so she could get closer to the man.
