Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 590

Elliot bent down and gently kissed the top of Anastasia’s head. “I’ll make you some food.” Anastasia finally released him. As he got out of bed, she spotted the nail marks on his back that were frankly quite ghastly, so she turned around guiltily.

It was probably… thanks to her. At 12.30PM, Anastasia lazily pulled on a T-shirt and put her hair up in a simple bun before heading downstairs. Her heart was filled with utter bliss when she saw her man making lunch for her.

Seeing as how he was still hustling about in the kitchen, she decided to head over and hug him from behind without saying a word. She simply squished her face against his back and followed him around as he moved.

Elliot turned around and hugged her back before kissing her. “Let’s eat! I’m free today, so we can spend the whole day together.”

“Shouldn’t we pick Jared up?” Anastasia blinked at him.

“Nigel canceled his business trip and Jared’s having a blast at his place, so he doesn’t want to come back just yet. It’ll just be the two of us for the next three days.”

She narrowed her eyes suspiciously at him. Is that so? Is it Jared who doesn’t want to come back, or did he convince Jared to stay away somehow?

Elliot could tell what she was thinking. He chuckled and said, “It’s really Jared who doesn’t want to come back.”

Anastasia quirked her lips into a smile. Nigel did have a lot of cool games in his house, so it was rather likely that Jared was reluctant to leave. She was about to move away, but something seemed to have gotten into Elliot as he quickly bent down and caught her lips in his.

Their kisses grew heavier and heavier.

The cozy sunlight shone in through the tall glass windows and scattered all over

the living room. Everything was well with the world.

If there had not been a warm lunch waiting for them, Elliot might never have stopped kissing her.

After lunch, Elliot accompanied Anastasia on a walk. It was well and truly springtime now as the gentle breeze carried the scent of grass, and the cerulean skies were clear without a speck of clouds. The entire world seemed to come to life again.

At night, they headed to a nearby Dinner in the Sky restaurant. Elliot had made the arrangements in advance, and they were the only customers in the entire establishment.

The soft and melodic music gave the place an air of romance.

Three days later, Jared dragged his feet as he exited Nigel’s house, but when he saw that his mommy and daddy had come to pick him up, he became an overeager puppy again.

Nigel stared wistfully at the family of three, but he recalled how much he enjoyed singlehood too, so he did not feel too envious.

Late that night, Anastasia jostled awake from sleep. She had subconsciously tried to hug the man who was supposed to be in bed beside her, but the spot was empty.

She opened her eyes and saw no sign of Elliot anywhere, but after giving it a moment’s thought, she figured out where he went.

Anastasia climbed out of bed and went to Jared’s room, and true enough, she saw him sitting on the edge of Jared’s bed for what seemed like eternity.

The warm light cast a shadow on him on the floor and made him look like a statue

Anastasia felt a pang in her heart as she could empathize with how Elliot was feeling right now.
