Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Josephine quickly found an empty seat and sat down. Then, she apologized to
everybody in the room. “I'm sorry. I misremembered the time.”
“If you're late, you're late. Why bother giving excuses? Tori cast a disdainful
sideways glance at Josephine while holding a cup of coffee to her lips.
The sharp response gave Josephine the strong feeling that Tori was deliberately
being difficult toward her. Moreover, the intense dislike did not come from their
work relationship. In that case, the reason could only be her relationship with
Ethan.
“Don’t worry about it. Let's just continue our meeting! Josephine, it's okay. It's my
fault that you were only informed about the meeting at the last minute.” Atticus
did not dare to criticize Josephine for her late arrival.
To be honest, there was no need for Josephine to attend this meeting. The semi-
annual wrap- up meeting mainly only involved those in the upper levels of
management, which was above her current position in the company. Atticus
simply believed that she would eventually become one of the future key talents in
the company, so it would be beneficial for her to attend and learn from such an
important. meeting.
“Thank you, Mr. Kowalski.” Josephine nodded gratefully. Afterward, the manager
who had been in the middle of making his report resumed his presentation.
Meanwhile, Josephine felt a sharp gaze studying her the entire time. The gaze
belonged to Tori.
Tori usually had an arrogant and stand-offish demeanor in the office. As a result,
she rarely interacted with the other employees in the company. While she once
accepted Josephine’s on-site interview during a news broadcast, she generally
did not have much contact with her colleagues in private.
However, today was an exception. She was uncharacteristically curious about
Josephine. That was because she needed a thorough understanding of her rival
so that she could snatch Ethan away from the young woman's clutches.
Although Ethan had previously rejected her invitation for a meal together, Tori
remained very enthusiastic about her chances of a relationship with him. There
was no way she could ever give up on him. Ever since her first glimpse of him,
she had forgotten all about her past flings. The only good thing about all the
wealthy men she dated in the past was their money. Aside from that single
aspect, they had either been older than middle-aged or short and fat. None of
them had ever been in the same league as Ethan Quarles, who was not only
athletic and handsome but also filthy rich.
Tori heard from Atticus that Ethan was the biggest shareholder in the company.
For Ethan, 725 million was nothing more than pocket change. That level of
wealth was something none of the other men she had dated in the past could
ever hope to achieve. Therefore, she decided that Ethan would be the man to
end her status as a single and unmarried woman.
At this moment, Tori wrote something on a piece of paper and pushed the paper
toward Josephine. It just so happened that they were. sitting beside each other at
the meeting table.
Startled, Josephine picked up the paper, only to see a single line written on the
paper. “I heard that you and Ethan are in a relationship. Is that true?”
She answered the question directly. “That's right! Do you have any objections,
Miss Alford?” Her response came out louder than she expected, causing the
manager who was presenting his report at the time to glance at her.
Tori’s expression turned ugly. How dare Josephine show such disrespect to me?!
More importantly, was she boasting directly to my face? Her expression
hardened and turned cold at the thought. Grabbing her notebook from the table,
she stopped conversing with Josephine but couldn't help giving a soft and
disdainful snort in response. That soft exhalation of air seemed to convey the
sense that Josephine was nothing more than a minor annoyance.
Josephine could not focus on the meeting and failed to absorb a single word
throughout. As al result, her notebook remained blank when the meeting
eventually ended. Everybody was standing up and leaving the meeting room.
when Tori suddenly smiled and called out to Josephine. Josephine, why don’t we
stay back and have a little chat?”
Josephine hesitated and returned to her seat. Then, she gazed at Tori directly.
“What do you want to talk about, Miss Alford?” “Are you aware that I am one of
the interviewers?” Tori spun her chair to face Josephine with a gleeful look in her
eyes.
