Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Shirley's gaze repeatedly darted toward Cole, and her thoughts were in turmoil.
Has Zacharias asked me to come early to engineer misunderstandings with
Cole? She dismissed this notion, considering it all to be mere coincidence. She
couldn't understand why Zacharias would resort to such tactics, as she didn’t see
herself as being so important to him.
Just then, the car door opened, and Zacharias elegantly stepped out of the car.
He nodded to Cole and exchanged a few words with Ren.
As Ren’s motorcade began to depart, Cole cast a deep and affectionate look in
Shirley's direction. She acknowledged him with a nod. A certain man closely
observed this entire scene.
After Ren’s convoy had departed, Zacharias’ motorcade slowly approached. She
turned to Zacharias and said, “I drove here. I won't be returning with the
motorcade.”
“Hand the car keys to someone else and come with me,” he insisted. He didn't
want to grant her any more leave. She had to remain by his side at all times
during the coming period. She was resolute. “I'll drive back by myself.”
Zacharias lowered his head and said in a hushed tone, “Unless you want
Imogen'’s internship to be tarnished.”
This statement momentarily silenced Shirley, and he appeared pleased. “Come
with me,” he ordered.
She turned to one of the team members and told him where her car was, asking
him to drive it back for her. Zacharias’ car door remained open as he waited for
her to get in. The convoy set off on its way back to Flintstone Residence.
Throughout the journey, they exchanged no words, mindful that the other
bodyguards could still overhear their conversations within the car. Shirley was
also aware that her private matters with Zacharias were not suitable for public
discussion.
After entering the Flintstone Residence, the bodyguards took Zacharias’ luggage
and documents inside and then left. The housekeeper was there to assist with
his needs, such as sending his soiled clothes for dry cleaning. She accompanied
him to the study with the documents.
Finally, alone in the study, she placed the documents on the desk and asked him,
“There was nothing important, so why did you ask me to come to the hospital so
early?”
Zacharias had clearly anticipated this question. He answered in a calm tone,
“Isn't it perfectly normal to have my subordinates return to my side?”
Shirley needed to clarify, “Do you know that my great-uncle would find you? Did
you also know that Cole would be there?”
He smirked and said, “Do you think I deliberately wanted to make Cole
misunderstand us?”
She couldn't forget how he had deliberately held her hand. “Is it not?”
“I'm busy and don’t have the time to make other men jealous,” Zacharias denied,
even though his actions suggested otherwise.
Shirley stared at him in silence, finding him mysterious beyond argument and
calculation. I'll explain everything to Cole,’ she said and wanted to leave.
“What will you explain? That I was the one you were taking care of in the
hospital? That you were substituting for Imogen during her internship? Or why
were we holding hands?” He suddenly fired a barrage of questions.

She shot him a glare, her frustration mounting. This man was exasperating; he
wouldn't even let her clarify.
“You're ruthless,” she muttered before storming out of the room.
