Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Connor paused momentarily. “Are we not gonna take responsibility?” “Ellen’s
nothing without the Presgrave Family, so why should we be afraid?” Olivia
rebuked confidently. “Do you think she can seriously pull something on us? Even
if that happens, we can just settle it with some money.”
He contemplated, She's right. With Mr. Presgrave’s support, Ellen can take away
half of our assets at any time. Now, my investment has gone out of the window,
and I have two families to feed. I won't be able to choke up the money for Ellen.
It's not bad to put up with it with Lena's plan for now.
Thinking about his failed attempt to get money, he sighed. He thought they would
be able to get out of trouble again, yet Benjamin could not care less about them.
The Presgrave Family was no longer their backup, and all they had left. was the
assets in their possession right now. As an afterthought, he became petty. Right,
we mustn't give Ellen our money. She's a girl; she’s gonna marry someone and
become an outsider one day.
In the meantime, Ellen was forcing herself to pack her stuff. It was not until then
that she realized how many things Jared had given her. She looked at her phone,
which was a present from him, and felt relieved for not discarding her old one yet.
It could still be used after inserting the SIM card.
Holding the phone, she wanted to know the details of what happened that year to
validate Selena’s words. In the end, she contacted Connor, whom she believed
would be able to clear her doubts.
When the phone rang, Connor was going to drink in the hall on the second floor
when the dialer's name gave him a bag of nerves, but he picked up the phone
nevertheless. “Ellie!”
“Uncle Connor, I have something to ask you.” She sounded unusually serious. “It
must be about your brother’s donation to the Presgrave Family, I suppose.”
“Yup. Did they threaten you to sign the agreement? Did they force us to donate
Kevin's heart?”
He broke into a cold sweat, but he figured it was fine to lie to make her hate the
Presgrave Family. “Yeah, they did. If I didn’t sign it, they would've-"
“What would they have done?”
“You're still young and naive about the world, Ellie. How can someone like us go
against a rich family? Even if they didn’t tell us what they'd do to us, we wouldn't
be able to survive after getting in their way.”
“Uncle Connor, be honest. Is this true?” “Why would I lie to you? They forced me
to sign the papers. After the surgery, they even stopped by to thank us and
stuffed us with money. Ellie, I was useless. I failed to protect your brother.”
There was a vivid image in her memory. On the day Kevin passed away, a few
men in suits came to Connor’s place and gave a credit card right in front of her
eyes! So, that was what happened.
The invisible weight sat upon her chest and stifled her breath, whereas tears wet
her cheeks.
