Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2476

Shirley felt frustrated as she followed him into the restaurant. When Zacharias entered first, the staff greeted him. When Shirley walked in, the staff indeed greeted her as well.

“Miss Lloyd, good evening.”

“Good evening.” Shirley forced a smile. Once Zacharias reached his private room, Shirley followed in. She was quite familiar with this place and had thoroughly studied the dishes here.

“You order,” he said after sitting down. Shirley asked cautiously, “Mr. Flintstone, do you have any specific dishes you’d like?”

“No.” She randomly selected some dishes and after ordering four dishes and one soup, the waiter left.

After closing the door, the entire private room became quiet. The retro decoration style, which was filled with the ambiance of the era, was initially bright and lively, but for some reason, when Zacharias sat there, the room seemed a bit oppressive. Shirley poured him a cup of tea. “Mr. Flintstone, please have some tea.”

Zacharias lifted the teacup, his sharp gaze fixed on her. “Why did you replace Imogen for the internship at my residence?”

She could no longer hide it. “Imogen had a little issue with her health check. However, this internship is crucial for her, as it relates to her future work assignment.”

“Have you thought about the consequences?”

he asked again. She shook her head. “No. I know I was careless, but she’s my friend and I want to help her.” “You know that the current situation is complicated, yet you still broke the rules?”

Zacharias’ words put Shirley in a nervous state.

“So, I want you to help me keep this matter a secret. After I finish Imogen’s internship for three months, I promise I won’t make such a mistake again.” She pleaded with him. She felt like her entire life was in this man’s grasp.

“We have no relationship and we are strangers. Why should I help you?” Zacharias raised an eyebrow as his gaze showed a hint of ruthlessness.
