NIGHT OF DESTINY NOVEL BY VANESSA K - Season 2 Episode 66

Anastasia went back to the working area and for a moment, her thoughts were all over the place. Truth

was, she found Elliot’s behavior quite baffling. He’s behaving quite abnormally today. Don’t tell me that

he likes me?! Well, I didn’t expect him to personally pick the flowers he gave me! I mean, even though

Nigel sent me flowers too, surely he would have just called the florist to place an order? Nigel wouldn’t

take the time to go and pick out the flowers personally just like Elliot. I guess it’s understandable that

Elliot’s mad because I didn’t appreciate the flowers he sent me. But honestly, I never expected that he

would have picked out every single stalk personally. Gosh!

At that point, Anastasia held her head in her hands and she was significantly frustrated

In the afternoon, Felicia came over to report the good news. The human resource department had

contacted Belle Patisserie and the contract had been drafted. Once everything was signed, then Belle

Patisserie would finally be able to move in. As such, they would be able to enjoy tasty pastries and

cakes, as well as freshly brewed aromatic coffee for their tea break in the future.

All of this was thanks to Anastasia and the entire office was quite aware of that.

Suddenly, Anastasia’s image in the company went through a complete reversal and those colleagues

who had secretly looked down on her in the past were now full of gratitude for her in public. After all,

this was an awesome benefit.

The only person quite unhappy about it was Alice. She had hoped fervently for the entire office to

dislike Anastasia but unexpectedly, Anastasia had managed to win the people’s hearts with just a

single move.

Meanwhile, May was currently quite impatient and she quickly found a hiding spot outside the company

as she dialed Hayley’s number to inform Hayley about this incident.

Hayley had just put on an act in front of Anastasia but unexpectedly, the latter had fought back so soon

after that. Hayley had assumed that Anastasia was just putting up an act, and that Anastasia had done

that to show Hayley how important she was to Elliot.

At that moment, Hayley bit her lip and she felt as if she was about to lose her mind. She felt as if she

was currently living in a darkened state, devoid of light. Her heart was completely closed off and she

couldn’t see the light in her life at all. She was now fully consumed by hatred, jealousy, and all sorts of

other negative feelings.

Hayley’s encounter with Elliot wasn’t a good thing for her, as she found that he was a calamity in her

life. After all, he was a spectacular individual while she wasn’t exactly that great. As such, she had lost

not only her true self but also her happiness. She hated Anastasia with a passion and now, the hatred

consuined her. To Hayley, it was Anastasia that had ruined Hayley’s life.

In the afternoon, Anastasia handed over the initial draft for Felicia’s perusal. Meanwhile, Felicia was

quite pleased with it and asked Anastasia to refine some details before showing it to the female client

tomorrow. If everything was acceptable, then they could proceed to generate the end-product drawing.

Subsequently, production could be initiated by handing over the end-product drawing to the factory.

At about 4 PM, Anastasia was busy working on her computer as she put the finishing touches on her

refined draft. Suddenly, she received a call on her landline, so she reached out to answer the phone.

“Hello?”

“Come to the underground parking lot in two minutes.” A man’s low, clear voice rang out.

Suddenly, Anastasia grabbed her cell phone to check the time and she gasped. She had been too busy

with work to the extent that she had nearly forgotten that she had to go and fetch Jared.

“Okay, I’ll be there right away,” Anastasia instantly responded. Subsequently, she collected her

belongings and switched off the computer before dashing out of the door.

In the underground parking lot, Anastasia saw the car that was already with its ignition on, so she

pulled open the door to the front passenger seat and entered the car. As she buckled her seatbelt, she

murmured anxiously, “Hurry up and get going. We’re going to be late!”

Meanwhile, Elliot was slightly speechless. After all, if it wasn’t for his reminder, she would have

completely forgotten that she had to pick Jared up.

Despite that, the man stepped on the accelerator to increase the speed and drove off in a rush.

As for Anastasia, she glanced outside of the window and breathed out slowly as she watched the traffic

outside. She was in good spirits at the moment. After all, her work was going quite well and her family

was safe and sound too. She found herself currently in an exceptionally relaxed state that she hadn’t

experienced before.

Suddenly, her cell phone rang and she took it in her hand to glance at it. Anastasia was caught by

surprise for a moment as she turned to glance at the man next to her. “It’s your grandma on the line.”.

Elliot shot her a look and responded with a low voice, “Put her on speakerphone.”

And so, Anastasia took a deep breath before hitting the speaker button and she answered the phone

with a sweet and polite voice, “Good evening, Old Madam Presgrave.”

At that moment, Harriet responded in a warm, gentle voice, “Anastasia! How have you been? Are you

quite busy lately?”

“Uh… No, I’m not too busy. Is there anything that you’d like me to do?” Anastasia asked with a smile.

“Well, I wanted to treat you to lunch tomorrow. I didn’t get to talk much to you during the dinner party

the other time because it was just too hectic then. Will you be free tomorrow afternoon?”
