Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Cole smiled. “It depends, but that's part of my job.”
“Be careful, then. Don’t make me worry about you. Shirley was very worried
about his safety. “All right. I'll be careful.” He nodded. Even without her reminding
him, he didn’t want to make her worry either.
“This is delicious.” She then scooped some food onto his plate. At the same time,
in another upscale restaurant, Zacharias sat at the table, staring at his phone as
he waited for a message. He had been waiting for over ten minutes, and the girl
hadn't replied to him. So, she’s with her beloved man and doesn’t even want to
bother me anymore?
He couldn't believe that Shirley hadn't seen his messages. Since her phone was
secure for her profession, she wouldn't receive junk texts, and she would see
every message. Frustrated, he sent another message. “Reply to my message! He
wrote it in a more commanding tone.
Shirley glanced at the message that lit up again, and with some impatience, she
picked up her phone and checked the message. It was another overbearing
message from Zacharias. What could he possibly want?
Yes, Mr. Flintstone? she finally replied. “From now on, even if you're taking time
off, you're not allowed to ignore my messages, the man quickly responded.
Seeing that, she scoffed and replied, “What is it, Mr. Flintstone?! “Be back at the
residence before 2.00PM." He had shortened her time off.
This annoyed her, for it was already 12.30PM. If she had to be back at the
residence by 2.00PM, it meant she had exactly one less hour for her date with
Cole. Tll be back before 3.00PM, alright? Shirley. requested.
Across the table, Cole watched as Shirley's expression showed signs of
annoyance when she replied to the messages. It was clear that she was having
an unpleasant exchange with someone.
“What's wrong? Did someone upset you?” he asked curiously. Since Shirley had
no one else to vent to, she complained to him, “Yeah, there's this really. annoying
person who's been making things difficult for me.”
“An annoying person? Who is it?" He grew even more curious.
“It's just a really annoying person. This person is bossy and unreasonable, and I
can't be bothered to deal with them.” As she said that, she turned her phone off.
Cole tried to console her. “Enough of the sad topics. Let's just enjoy our meal.
Just stay away from people who upset you.” But who could have upset her this
much? Is ita man or a woman?
Just then, Shirley propped up her chin and revealed a cute smile. “Cole, do you
have a girlfriend?”
He almost choked on his drink, startled by her direct question. After he cleared
his throat, he replied, “I've been too busy with work to have a girlfriend.”
At his answer, she was secretly pleased. “Do you plan to have one?”
“Of course,” he replied, looking at her. “Then... have you considered me?” Her
adorable eyes darted around when she said that.
Shirley had grown up in a training camp and was raised like a boy. Her attitude
toward love was straightforward, and she disliked playing games or beating
around the bush. Since she was certain of her feelings for Cole, she wanted to
know if he felt the same way. If they both liked each other, shouldn't they be in a
relationship?
“Shirley, you're an excellent girl and exceptional in every way- Cole praised.
