Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Ellen looked up at him, asking, “You said... you only learned yesterday that my
brother was the donor, right?”
Jared apologized, “Yeah, I only learned that yesterday. I didn’t know the donor
back then was named Kevin Reiss until your uncle suddenly came asking me for
money. Sorry, it was my fault for not noticing.” Had he learned about this sooner,
he would have shown her his gratitude already.
Ellen asked, “My uncle asked you for money again?” She was both surprised and
kind of angry. How could Uncle Connor take advantage of my brother's heart
donation to keep asking for money?
“That's right. He demanded about 15 million from me, saying he needs the
fortune to pay off his many debts. Ellen, I know they didn't give you a red cent out
of the 15 million that my family gave him previously.” Jared's heart ached terribly
as he looked at her. He continued, “You should get at least half the amount.”
Tears welled up in Ellen’s eyes. Some memories were so unbearable to recall,
she had to bury them deep down. She remembered how Jessica had once run
out of cash and had to turn to Connor and his family when she got hospitalized
for cold-induced pneumonia.
Even though Connor had only given Jessica a mere 150 in the end, Jessica had
told her at her bedside that she had to be grateful to him and repay his kindness
in the future.
Unbeknownst to them at the time, however, Connor and Olivia were splurging
everywhere and flaunting their wealth in front of their friends and relatives with
the money they had received for Kevin's heart donation.
Now that she thought about it, she thought Connor and his family were not
human. They were so heartless and cold-blooded that they didn't deserve to be
her relatives and elders at all. She recalled again how Connor and Olivia. had
responded coldly when she borrowed money from them prior to Jessica's death.
They were already so loaded, but they wouldn't lend her a single cent more.
Feeling bitterly disappointed, she looked up at Jared, saying, “You're right that I
should get at least half of my brother's money. I want to get it back.”
Jared nodded. “I'll help you with that. I asked the hospital director who signed the
agreement with your uncle and his family back then, and he said there was no
element of coercion or threat involved. Your uncle and aunt were your brother's
legal guardians at the time, and the agreement was signed with their consent,
nor did my parents ever pressure them with their power and influence.
Please trust me, Ellen, my parents are not this kind of people,” he said under his
breath in hopes that Ellen wouldn't get the wrong idea about his family again. “Of
course, I'm very sorry for using your brother's heart. If you have a problem with it,
I can have it taken out and leave it at your disposal,” he added in a choked voice.
Ellen felt a catch in her throat; her eyes reddened. “What nonsense are you
talking about? When did I ever ask you to take it out?”
Jared looked at her quietly. “I just hope that you won't hate me.” “I don’t hate
you.” Ellen let out a sigh. “My brother was a kind person. I think he would've
saved you, too.”
Jared strode over, held her hand, and placed it gently on his heart. “No wonder I
felt kind of close to you and wanted to protect you when I first saw you. Turns out
this was because my heart came from the person who loved you most.”
Ellen couldn't help shedding tears in silence as the person who loved her most
tugged at her heartstrings.
As she felt the beating of the man’s heart, a large hand gently wiped her tears
away. “I'm your brother from now on. I'll protect you and love you for the rest of
my life.”
