Night of Destiny

“I’m not saying anything,” Shirley insisted with a snort.

“I’ll believe you,” Zacharias added. Jesslyn stared at him squarely, gaping in disbelief. “Zacharias, why do you only believe her? Don’t you believe me?”

Brushing past her, he stopped in front of Shirley and whispered, “As long as you tell me, I’ll believe anything you say.”

Shirley raised her head and met a pair of clear, rational eyes. “She pulled my hair, and I pinned her to the ground because I was so mad. Then, you guys came.”

“Not only that. You even threw a stone at me, and the back of my head is still swollen from it,” Jesslyn chirped hastily.

“That’s because you provoked me first,” Shirley argued.

“I just commented a little about you. Can’t you even take a few comments?” Jesslyn snapped. Feeling even more aggrieved, she pointed at Shirley and whined, “Zacharias, give her the boot immediately.”

Shirley turned to him at the same time, saying fearlessly, “Mr. Flintstone, if you would like to dismiss me, please feel free to do so.”

Next to them, Tony had the urge to bring a chair over, together with some popcorn, to watch the scene. This is too exciting! Alas, the day arrives when Uncle Zacharias is in a dilemma between two women!

“Watch your tone! Do you think that Zacharias doesn’t dare to fire you?” Jesslyn said in a huff.

“Please dismiss me as soon as possible, then,” Shirley replied provocatively.

“Zacharias, dismiss her now!” She’s not only provoking me but Zacharias now. I’m sure he won’t take this attitude and fire this arrogant bodyguard!

It was true that Zacharias was in a dilemma; Jesslyn was unreasonable and stubborn, while Shirley was straightforward.

“Come on, Uncle Zacharias. Dismiss my goddess, and I’ll hire her as my bodyguard right away.” Meanwhile, there was another person who couldn’t wait to see the issue grow bigger. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“Shut up.” Glaring at Tony, Zacharias thought that he was unnecessarily excited.

“Zacharias, she’s just a mere bodyguard, and you have so many others,” Jesslyn urged.

“I don’t dare to dismiss her,” Zacharias said curtly.

“Why?” Jesslyn asked, widening her eyes.. There’s actually a person whom Zacharias is afraid of? And she’s just a mere bodyguard!

Knowing Jesslyn’s personality like the back of his hand, Zacharias had to announce Shirley’s upbringing because Jesslyn was a bully who was afraid of the tough. “Because she’s the great-niece of Mr. Oswald.” The only thing he mentioned about Shirley was this. As for her father’s identity, he reckoned that Jesslyn would have no idea how powerful he was even if he mentioned it.

Tony’s eyes almost fell out of its sockets. “What? My goddess is actually a member of the president’s family?”

With disbelief in her eyes, Jesslyn stared at Shirley, her mind blank from the shock. What? A simple bodyguard of Zacharias’ is from the president’s family? That explains why she’s so arrogant and fearless. It’s because her family background is tough!

“Knock it off and go home, Jesslyn,” Zacharias said, casting a look at Tony and hinting at him to take her away,

As Jesslyn gawked at Shirley, all the despise and contempt she had for her earlier had evaporated, and instead, she felt her face burning as though someone had given her a tight slap.

Immediately, Tony tugged her over. “Jesslyn, come on. Let’s go shopping.”

She gazed at Zacharias with an unbearable look in her eyes, unable to leave just like that. “Zacharias, 1-”

“Go home!” he ordered. “And stop coming here in the future. This is not your playground.”

When Jesslyn looked at Shirley again, there was no more haughtiness in her eyes. In its place was envy and jealousy. She’s related to the Oswald Family. What a strong background she has.

“Let’s go, Jesslyn. Let’s get you a good meal tonight.” Tony tugged at her again. This was a great out that he had created for her, and she decided to accept it, saying, “Okay, let’s go.”

Then, she left with Tony, and the moment they were gone, Zacharias looked at Shirley carefully. “Where are you hurting?”

She shook her head. “Nowhere.”

Jesslyn had just gone downstairs when she noticed that her phone was still in Tony’s room, and she rose up. “Tony, I’m going to get my phone. Wait for a moment.”
