Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

As Selena had found out that Ellen lived alone, scaring her was a fatal move.
She planned to continue sending people to harass Ellen at night, rendering her
unable to live in peace by keeping her on high alert at all times.
In the long run, any sane person would eventually lose their mind. Selena was on
the verge of insanity as well. It had been two days since she was humiliated by
Charlie, and she had spent those two days living in pain and resentment. She
detested Ellen. After all, she was treated like this because of Ellen, and she
vowed to make her life miserable.
At dawn, Jared had already changed into his sportswear and was waiting for
Ellen to arise in the living room. Recently, they'd begun jogging together, as if
they had formed a tacit understanding between them. To him, jogging wasn't
important-being with Ellen was.
Usually, she would get up at half past seven, but when he waited outside her
door until it was half past eight and did not hear any signs of her waking up, he
couldn't help but feel a trace of worry. Did she fall sick?
In the end, he decided to knock on her door, and he soon heard footsteps inside.
Instantly, the door opened to reveal Ellen with her hair down and her forehead
coated in a cold sweat, standing by the doorway with an ashen face. From the
looks of it, it was clear that she had not slept well at all.
“What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?” he asked in concern. Ellen nodded
and apologized, “Yeah. I don't think I can go jogging today. I want to rest a bit.
longer. Is that all right?”
Jared reached out and placed a hand on her forehead. After seeing that she did
not have a fever, he assured her in a gentle voice, “Go ahead and rest! I'll go
make some congee for you.”
Ellen gently nodded, not intending to tell him what she encountered last night as
she felt that he already had enough work to deal with every day.
After she went back to sleep, she felt much more reinvigorated when she
reawakened at eleven o'clock. Subsequently, she deleted the pictures from her
phone.
In the afternoon, Jared headed to the company while she stayed at home,
leisurely spending her time taking care of the cat and plants. Every afternoon at
three, Jared would order a different set of afternoon tea desserts for her
accompanied by a gift box, satisfying her taste buds while also giving her a new
surprise each day.
When night fell, he took her out for dinner at a restaurant nearby. “Tell me, what
nightmare did you have last night?” Jared asked worriedly, wondering what she
dreamed of that sent her breaking into a cold sweat.
“Nothing, I just thought of something scary,” Ellen lied, not wanting to bring up the
grotesque pictures to him on such a romantic night.
However, as she ate, she felt her stomach churning and covered her mouth with
a hand, losing her appetite.
Keenly sensing that something was off about her, Jared handed her a glass of
water and asked, “What's wrong? Do you feel sick?”
Ellen accepted the glass and took a sip before shaking her head. “It's nothing. I
probably don’t have an appetite because I didn’t sleep well last night.”
As she had expected, she was unable to continue eating after looking at the
plates of meat and ended her meal with only vegetables.
After dinner, Jared took her home, and the two watched documentaries on the
couch in the living room. Ellen enjoyed watching historical documentaries, and so
did Jared. But right now, he wasn’t paying attention to the television screen.
He stood up and got himself a glass of tea, and upon taking his seat again, he
sat next to Ellen and naturally draped his long arm over her shoulders.

Sensing his intentions, she shifted
her posture and allowed his arm to
slide down her shoulder and wrap
around her waist. At this, Jared did
not have the guts to take a step
further and was satisfied by letting
her watch the documentary in his
arms. The content is on
