Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50 

That night five years ago, Anastasia was already tainted after being violated by a jerk. Ever since then, she had no interest in men anymore. Her son was everything in her life, and she didn’t need marriage, love, or men.

She had always regarded Nigel as a friend. When she was on the way to meet a client, she met him while he was involved in a car accident. Seeing that Nigel’s car was filled with smoke, she rushed over without saying a word and dragged the injured man out of the driver’s seat.

In less than two minutes, his car exploded on the spot. At that time, she was drenched in cold sweat and was extremely afraid. Had she died there, her son would’ve been orphaned.

Since Anastasia and Nigel had nearly faced death together, their relationship was deeper than other friendships. After rescuing him, she left. Later on, Nigel found her and kept chasing after the woman to repay his debt to her. Gradually, they became acquainted and made friends with each other.

When Francis came home in the evening, Naomi asked while picking up his bag for him, “I’m going out to meet some friends the night after tomorrow, Francis. Do accompany me to attend the event.”

“The day after tomorrow? What time?”

“We’re just going to have dinner that evening!”

“I won’t have time, so I can’t go.”

“What? Do you have to work overtime?”

“No, I need to take care of Anastasia’s son. She has to work overtime at night, so I have to take care of Jared.” Francis didn’t treat Naomi as an outsider, so he was forthright with her.

Naomi’s face turned ugly all of a sudden. She snorted and replied, “You only think about your elder daughter all day long, don’t you! Don’t forget that she’s the one who messed up our family.”

“It’s difficult for her to raise a child alone. Naturally, I will try my best to help her,” Francis said helplessly.

“Help her? You know how to help her, but why don’t you help our Erica?” Naomi immediately snorted, looking extremely upset.

Francis was also stuck in the middle between his family and Anastasia, but he still firmly wanted to help the latter because he owed her a lot in the past five years.

Meanwhile, Erica overheard their conversation on the second floor, and she knew that her chance had come.
