A Moment in Destiny

Instead, he chose to wave his hand and took a cab.

Elijah did not stop her. The Veyron car followed Esther slowly. Esther knew that he had been following her.

Esther got out of the cab after she reached her apartment, and the Veyron also followed her.

She didn't look at him and just went upstairs.

It was strange that Elijah did not go upstairs.

Esther went to wash her face and then she looked at herself in the mirror, smiling sadly. Her slender, thin back seemed to have unbearable loneliness and grief!

Without a reason, she missed Hudson suddenly!

She missed the days in Switzerland and the United States! It was just happy and simple!

Esther smiled sadly with sour tears in her eyes. She watched her tears falling into the basin, resulting in the mark of ripples and she lost her senses gradually. Hudson didn’t call her anymore these days. He was her elder brother now and she had already married Elijah.

She was no longer the Esther in the past!

Elijah didn't come back until she had taken a shower and changed clothes. She opened the door, and a strong smell of smoke flew in. It seemed like Esther didn't see him. She changed her pajamas and sat on the sofa to watch TV.

Once again, seeing the deep mourning on her face where her smile faded, Elijah sighed in a bad mood without saying anything.

Esther watched the TV and her tears rolled out of her eyes suddenly.

Elijah took off his coat and sat on the sofa.

“Crying?” He stretched his slender fingers and wiped away the tears hanging on her cheeks. Was she crying?

After a stunning surprise, Esther kept calm, turned her face away, and ignored him!

He didn't speak. Then, he sighed for a long time and went to take a shower!

Esther went to the study. She stayed there until late at night. When she came out, she saw Elijah sitting on the sofa, smoking a cigarette deeply.

Esther was about to enter the bedroom when he stood up out of the blue and hugged her. He stood behind her and buried his face in her neck.

Esther’s heart trembled without moving, struggling, or rejecting.

He lifted his head from her back and let her face him. Then, his lips printed on hers.

Esther’s heart tightened and she shrank subconsciously. She didn't want it, she didn’t want to be treated like yesterday!

He felt her nervousness and fear. His heart tightened. Then, his handheld her shoulders instinctively and his lips kissed hers with slight strength.
