Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2537

“Mom, is this Dad’s decision? Why didn’t he discuss it with me beforehand?” “Didn’t you also act on your own?” Angela retorted. This incident almost scared her out of her wits. Her daughter not only tampered with the system’s name list but also lied to them about taking care of her grandmother, only to secretly intern at the Vice President’s Residence.

“Mom, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done what I did, Shirley apologized.

“Alright, let’s put this behind us. Luckily, Mr. Flintstone didn’t hold you responsible, or else you’d be in trouble.” Angela also breathed a sight of relief, knowing her daughter had been too reckless. If Zacharias had pursued the matter, it wouldn’t have been easy for Shirley to avoid punishment.

Hearing that, Shirley felt her heart skip a beat and realized she had made a huge mistake. “Mom, you and Dad can rest assured. I will do my best while interning here.” She dared not ask for more and hoped working hard during her internship could appease her parents, “Also, watch your temper when you’re with Mr. Flintstone. That is not your home.” Angela reminded her daughter.

“I understand.” “Don’t think that you can do anything you want because of your father and great-uncle’s status. You have to know your place.” Shirley felt her heart tremble. Indeed, she had thrown several tantrums before Zacharias, and now that her mother brought it up, it seemed like she didn’t know her place.

“Alright, Mom. I will work hard during this internship,” Shirley promised. After ending the call with her mother, Shirley changed into her uniform and pulled the door open. When she returned downstairs, she sternly spoke to the man who was watching the TV on the couch. “Mr. Flintstone, I haven’t been very respectful before. From now on, I will listen to your orders and carry them out without asking any questions.” In the meantime, Zacharias thought she was acting strange today, but he liked hearing those words.

“Are you sure?” He raised a brow, indicating his skepticism.

“I will personally protect you round the clock.” Shirley carried out the order the man had previously given her.
