Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 988

Angela and Annie sat in the car, but the latter couldn’t stop talking about the subject just now. She pestered Angela with questions, asking. “Angela, tell me about Richard. Is he easy to get along with? Is he handsome at work?”

Angela nodded. “H-He’s quite easy to get along with, but he seems very busy. I rarely saw him, so I don’t know much about him.”

“Yeah, that’s understandable. He left in a hurry before the end of our engagement dinner last time.” Richard was a workaholic in Annie’s mind’s eye.

“Annie, when will you get married to him? Has the date been finalized?” Angela asked tentatively.

Annie’s face blushed. She replied shyly. “It’s still early for that! We’ve only met once, after all. But Grandpa said that Richard’s grandfather wishes us to get married sooner because he wants to have a great-grandson.”

Angela looked at Annie as emotions surged within her. Her feelings were mixed, but she was also glad that she didn’t ruin the latter’s happiness. “Congratulations, Annie.”

“Thank you, Angela. By the way, did Richard mention me when you met him? I sent him a lot of text messages, but he didn’t reply to any of them. I once suspected that I had the wrong phone number,” Annie said with a bitter expression.

Dumbfounded, Angela looked at her. “He didn’t reply to any of your text messages?”

Annie gave a sigh of disappointment. “That’s right! I sent him almost 50 text messages. I wonder if he’s so busy that he doesn’t have time to text me back.”

Angela was suddenly enraged. Like hell he is that busy! He spends lots of time reading over there. But how could he be so cruel as to not reply to any of Annie’s messages? “How could he do this to you?” she said angrily at once.

Annie comforted her instead, saying, “It’s okay, Angela. I know that he’s busy; perhaps he’s rushed off his feet with lots of stuff to do. Please don’t blame him for that.”
