Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Zacharias let out a soft sigh. “Alright, then. I'll just get to know him, nothing
more.”
Shirley was still angry inside. She didn't like her private life being snooped on,
even if it was by the vice president himself.
“I think I'm not cut out to stay here. Why don’t you assign me to guard duty
outside? Get someone else to take care of you,” Shirley told him, not wanting to
be too close right now. Zacharias raised an eyebrow. “You dislike me that much,
huh?”
“Am I not allowed to dislike you?” Shirley shot back. After all, he wasn’t exactly
worth much. Zacharias let out another sigh. “Alright, alright. You won't have to
see me for the next three days.”
“Where are you going?” Shirley asked. “Heading out for a site inspection. You
don’t have to come with me,” Zacharias said, then headed upstairs.
Shirley bit her lip. What she wanted was to be transferred away from him to do
guard duty, not to avoid him for three days.
Back in her room, Shirley took off her coat and changed into her regular
professional uniform. Since she was interning here for Imogen, she would put in
her best effort to work diligently.
She went to the third floor and saw that the study door was closed. She let out a
small sigh and stationed herself outside, waiting for him.
Inside the study, Zacharias sat on the couch, his face calm, but there was a
hidden sense of weariness in his eyes. His fist clenched and unclenched, and
then, finally, he rubbed his temples. He felt a headache coming on.
The demanding work every day hadn't tired him like this. It was that woman who
was causing his mind to be in turmoil, and he didn’t know how to handle it. Just
then, his phone rang and he answered it. “Hello!”
“Sir, everything's ready on our end. Have you packed your bags? Can we leave
in half an hour?”
Zacharias replied, “Bring the car in ten minutes.”
After he hung up, he stood up and opened the study door. He was taken aback to
find the girl still stationed outside the door. His just-settled emotions stirred again.
Pretending not to notice him, Shirley lifted her chin, standing like an
expressionless robot.
Zacharias saw her indifferent expression, and his gaze dimmed. However, he
didn't say anything. He just walked toward his master bedroom. Shirley frowned.
Is he leaving?
Hearing sounds of packing from the master bedroom, she eventually stepped
forward and stood at the doorway, watching the man folding and stacking clothes
into a suitcase.
“Need any help?” Shirley asked, her tone a little stiff.
“No, thanks,” the man answered. Shirley could tell Zacharias was also being
distant, so she retreated.
Not long after, the man emerged with a suitcase in hand. Shirley stepped forward
again. “Let me help you carry it downstairs.”
Zacharias declined her offer yet again. “It's not necessary.”
With that, he carried the suitcase downstairs. Shirley followed him, and the man
neatly draped his windbreaker over his arm. At the doorstep was a black SUV. A
man in his thirties -Zacharias’ assistant Freddie-stepped out. He wore a neat suit
and had a sharp, capable look in his eyes.
“Sir, allow me. Please get in the car,” he said, coming over to take the suitcase
from Zacharias.
