Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 979

Suddenly, they heard the sound of dogs barking coming from all around them. It seemed that every family in this town had a dog. At this moment, the sound of a dog barking was immediately followed by another.

Angela nervously clutched the front of Richard’s trench coat again as fear surged up within her.

Holding her in his arms, Richard said in a deep voice, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

Spoken in a deep voice, the words seemed to give her enormous strength.

With that, they walked ahead with his arm wrapped around her waist.

When they finally arrived at the inn’s lobby, the landlady looked at them with meaningful amusement. They’ve got to be a couple! Seriously, I’ve never seen such an attractive couple before.

Angela asked the landlady about the broken air conditioner.

The landlady was very apologetic. She said she had called someone to repair the air conditioner, but the inn was so out of the way that the repairman had yet to come over to do the repairs so far.

Unable to say anything else, Angela had no choice but to go upstairs with Richard.

It was still freezing cold in the room when they got inside. As Angela rubbed her hands together for warmth, the man behind her draped his warm and heavy overcoat over her shoulders.

Angela was stunned for a few seconds.

Coming in front of her, Richard said in a deep voice, “Put it on.”

Angela had no choice but to put on his military greatcoat, which reached down to her knees and looked like a warm and heavy dress on her. Richard was attentively helping her button up the greatcoat with his eyes full of tenderness under the light.

Angela had once wished that the man would be gentle with her. Now he was finally gentle with her, but she was no longer allowed to enjoy it. “Thank you,” she said gratefully.

“How are you gonna thank me?” Richard stared at her as the look in his eyes became serious.
