Chapter 2489
Night of Destiny
The warmth of those little moments made Shirleyâs heart beat uncontrollably for Cole. Despite the
hardships of daily training, they would seem as sweet as eating sugar as long as she could catch a
glimpse of him. She would rush to the field just to see him. Wasnât love supposed to be like this?
Her heart was in chaos. In the end, she shook off everything that happened tonight. She firmly believed
that she absolutely could not have any intimate behavior with Zacharias in the future for the sake of
being with Cole.
This was out of respect for love and Cole. Zacharias must be lacking a woman around him, which led to
such actions.
The sound of rain outside diminished. Shirley suddenly remembered something and immediately sat up
before going to the door to lock it from the inside.
Zacharias was like an out-of-control wild beast who was ready to attack at any moment. She had to be
on guard against him.
Zacharias lay on the bed in the master bedroom, thinking about the two consecutive kissing incidents. In
the end, he concluded that he truly liked this girl.
Otherwise, he wouldnât have put so much effort into caring for her.
Although she had warned and rejected him twice, he was not in a hurry. He would slowly make her
understand his feelings..
His eyes flickered with a determined light, like a hunter locking onto the prey he liked. He wouldnât give
up no matter what.
That night, the bodyguards outside had no idea what had happened in the villa. In the early morning,
Shirley got up and looked at the mist-shrouded sky outside. The rain had turned into a drizzle.
She remembered that Zacharias would go to pay respects to his mother today. Should she go with him?
She went to the independent bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face, preparing for the day.
Shirley wore professional trousers and tied her long hair behind her head. She exuded a refreshing and
heroic aura.
She opened the door and coincidentally heard the main bedroom door opening as well. The two people
who stepped out faced each other directly.
Shirley had figured it out last night. She shouldnât offend this man during her internship. Even if she was
taken advantage of, she could only count herself unlucky.
âGood morning, Mr. Flintstone.â Shirley stood straight and greeted him. Her expression was no longer
nervous and flustered like last night; it was calm and rational.
Zacharias looked at her and there was a slight disappointment in his heart. This just showed that he
didnât matter much to her.
âLetâs go downstairs,â he said and took the lead. She followed him downstairs. It was still early, so they
had time for breakfast. He stood in front of the kitchen and started to prepare breakfast. The coffee
machine on the side had already been turned on.
Shirley lit the fireplace. The morning chill filled the wooden cabin. She wasnât concerned about herself
but rather about
Zacharias, who was usually in an environment with constant temperature. She didnât want him to catch a
cold.
After all, many national matters were waiting for him to handle. The sizzling aroma wafted over; he was
making scrambled eggs. Given the limited conditions, they had to do whatever was available.
After about fifteen minutes, the man came over with breakfast, saying, âEat while itâs hot.â
Shirley sat down, and he brought her a cup of coffee and a cup of warm milk. She avoided eye contact
with him as much
as possible. His gaze lingered on her face several times, yet she pretended not to see it.
âDo you need me to accompany you?â Shirley finally lifted her head and asked. If he didnât, she could
stay here and wait for him.
âDonât you want to accompany me?â Zacharias looked over. Did she already start to dislike him?
âAll right. Iâll accompany you.â She realized she had asked a redundant question again. After finishing
breakfast, she washed the dishes. It was already 9.00AM when she was done.
He went upstairs and she found that when he came downstairs, he was holding a windbreaker and a
scarf. The coat he brought this time was still hanging on the rack.
âWear this. Itâs cold outside,â Zacharias said to her.
