A Moment in Destiny

Elijah sighed inwardly. He thought that she must have been angry and was blaming him for being gone for five days! He was indeed very busy! His legs first entered from the bottom part of the quilt that was loose and then his arms went in to embrace her waist. He used some force and pulled the body that was struggling to go out back into his arms.

Esther froze and was struggling, trying to get out of his embrace.

“Sleep! Babe, I haven’t slept well for days!”

“You’re very tired?” she asked with hidden meanings in her words.

“Yes! I’m a little busy! So, I’m quite tired also!”

Busy hooking up with Kattie, right? Esther snorted in her mind. He surprisingly acted as if nothing had happened. Esther was annoyed and she felt like she was going to suffocate. She sat up violently while holding the quilt.

“Babe, what’s wrong?” Elijah was taken aback.

Esther stared at him in a daze and asked again, “Elijah, you don’t have anything to tell me?”

“What exactly do you want to say?” Seeing her like this, he knew that there must be something she wanted to say.

“Let me ask you one more time, did you go on the business trip yourself?”

“Yes!” He nodded and then added, “But, Kattie also went afterward!”

When he mentioned Kattie, the unpleasant scene in that video made her almost suffocate for a while! “You guys were together?”

“She was the one who went to me!” he said, “But, Kattie will never come back! She has gone to France and she said that she will never come back! She specifically went to say goodbye to me!”

“Never come back? You want to say the reason she went to the US to look for you was just to say goodbye, right? Because you guys were separating soon, so you guys couldn’t help but do it, right? You want to say that you were seduced, right?” All of Esther’s emotions turned to grief and anger at once.

“Babe…” Elijah was stunned, “How do you know that Kattie and I were together?”

“Elijah! You bastard!” Kattie violently threw the flash drive in her pocket onto the bed as hard as she could, “Look at what is this!”

“What?” Elijah was stunned for a while. Then, he picked up the flash drive, went to the study, and turned on the computer. After the flash drive was inserted, he was entirely dumbfounded. His mind quickly recalled the day in New York in which he suddenly received a call from Kattie…

“Elijah, I’m at the lobby of your hotel!” Kattie said on the phone.

“How come you come here?” Elijah was a bit shocked but he still said, “Come up!”

Kattie went upstairs and hugged him as soon as she saw him.
