Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44

“Anastasia, have you missed me after we’ve been separated for so long?” Nigel held his chin and looked at her affectionately with seductive eyes.

Anastasia retracted her gaze, and when she looked at Nigel, she smiled. “Of course!”

Then, he took out car keys with an attached crystal keychain. “When I miss you, I’ll take this out to look at it. What about the one I gave you? You didn’t throw it away, did you?”

She was slightly embarrassed. “I think I forgot to bring it back here.”

“You! How could you not properly keep the gift I gave you? I’ll buy you another one later,” he scolded with a smile.

“Is it necessary?”

“Yes. I’ll buy another pair. One for you, and one for me. When we don’t see each other, we can look at them and resolve our lovesickness.” Nigel was also quite the romantic and all his thoughts were now on Anastasia.

“Okay! I’ll select them and give you one.”

“They must be a matching pair.”

“Okay.” Anastasia nodded as she smiled. As she looked away, her eyes had once again met the cold eyes belonging to the man sitting not far away from her. For some reason, she felt that Elliot’s gaze had become icier as if someone had offended him.

Rey was called over for lunch by Elliot today, who said that he had some work to discuss, but after waiting for a long time, Elliot didn’t talk about work at all. Instead, Elliot’s expression had suddenly become worse, Rey had been with him for 5 years, and he was the closest person to Elliot, so he knew why Elliot’s expression was dark.

Soon, the sumptuous lunch came. Anastasia was hungry, so she decided to quickly begin eating

“This is delicious! Taste it.” Nigel picked up some food with his fork and held it in front of a startled Anastasia. She subconsciously opened her mouth and took a bite.
