A Moment in Destiny

In the afternoon, at Ernie Hughes’s office. 

“Where did you go at noon?” Ernie asked Aila in a cold voice. 

Aila trembled and immediately said, “I went to the hospital.” 

“Oh?” Ernie shrugged his shoulders slightly, “Really? Are you sick?” 

“Yes, I was feeling a little endocrine imbalance,” Aila said truthfully. 

“Didn’t you see anything?” Ernie asked. 

“Uh. What could’ve happened?” Aila panicked inside. Thinking about her seeing Sylvie and Marley earlier on, there was absolutely no way she was going to tell him that. No! 

Ernie stood up in a whiff, reached out, and grabbed her. He sneered and swept off the things on the desk. Letting go of his hands, he dropped Aila onto the desk instantly. 

“Ugh—” It hurt too much! 

Ernie’s strong force that felt like wanting to drop her to death made Aila so painful. 

While she was crying in pain, Ernie leaned forward. 

His large hand ripped off her clothes, and there was an unfathomable coldness at the bottom of his eyes, “Endocrine imbalance huh? Should I adjust it for you?” 

Aila’s slender figure looked deadly seductive on top of the desk. 

Her strength to struggle became smaller and smaller. 

Ernie’s voice was full of sexiness. That dangerous sexiness and hotness made Aila’s heart rippled in circles. Her heart was filled with sorrow, “Vice President, please, I am begging you!” 

“Beg me for what?” Ernie sneered and whispered. It sounded like it was a trial, making her tremble. 

“To let me go!” Aila begged while crying, “Please don’t torture me!” 

Ernie was like a demon, he could play with people at will in the palm of his hands by just casually moving a finger. He never left any room for error in whatever he did, and never gave her the chance to choose as well. But Aila was unwilling to accept it, why would she meet such a person? Yet he was so skillful in dealing with love affairs, easily stirring up all her feelings. She was feeling so uncomfortable right now! 

Aila cried uncontrollably as if to let out her long-standing suppression, resentment, and humiliation. Her bitter tears hung on her eyelashes, making her beautiful eyes look even more charming, “Ernie, I beg you!” 

Ernie smiled and said, “My silly Aila, why are you crying? Aren’t you afraid that my

kind of person Ernie Hughes was. He was decisive, unpredictable, and had the handsomeness of Marley Hughes but also a heart that was more ruthless than Marley. He was philandering and had an ill-intentioned heart, but he seemed to have a soft spot for Sylvie Mccarthy. Aila couldn’t figure out what Ernie was doing! But she knew that with just one word from him, she could disappear from this world immediately.
