Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 2483

Chapter 2483

A force pressed her tightly against his chest and his warm windbreaker covered her head. At this

moment, about 30 feet away, Roy and three subordinates heard the commotion. They immediately

turned around and even drew their weapons when they heard the noise. However, when they only saw

bats flying around, they quickly put their weapons away.

As a few subordinates prepared to investigate, Roy reached out and stopped them when he saw Shirley

pressed in

Zacharias’ arms. At this moment, they would better not disturb Zacharias. The subordinates quickly

understood and followed Roy away.

Shirley pushed Zacharias away. Her pretty face was a bit red and her breath was slightly uneven. She

took two steps back while staring at the man with a hint of annoyance. Did he make a mistake?

He was the protected one and she was his bodyguard. Did he not consider her a bodyguard just

because he was more skilled?

“Mr. Flintstone, I hope such a situation won’t happen again. You need to understand that I am your

bodyguard.” She calmed down and then spoke with a hint of warning in her tone.

Zacharias’ reaction had been instinctive and even he was surprised for a few seconds. However, he

understood his own feelings once he realized it. Unknowingly, this girl’s life was now more important to

him than his own.

After Shirley spoke, she noticed that the man was just looking at her without saying anything. She

couldn’t help but feel angry. “Don’t you know that your life is more important than mine?”

He responded with a soft scoff. “Who said your life isn’t important? If something happens to you while I’m

with you, your dad will kill me.” After speaking, the man walked into the hall. Shirley was rendered

speechless and found herself momentarily unable to argue with him.

But as she followed him, she spoke again. “You can rest assured. I can take responsibility for my own

life. If I die in front of you one day, I-“

The words that followed were silenced by a palm, and her eyes widened once again. This man had

unexpectedly covered her mouth with his hand.

Her soft red lips pressed against the palm of his hand and his gaze gradually darkened. He warned her.

“Don’t mention the word ‘death’ in front of me. It’s unlucky”

Shirley obediently nodded, then pointed to the big hand covering her mouth and mumbled, “Can you let

me go?”

As Zacharias released her, his big thumb rubbed against her lips.

She noticed it but couldn’t say anything. She immediately looked around and realized that this was a

mountain villa built on the cliffside. From the window, one could see lush green forests and distant rolling

mountains.

The sound of rain hitting the wooden structure outside was surprisingly melodious. It was not annoying at

all but rather soothing. “Whose house is this?” Shirley asked.

“Mine,” the man answered.

Shirley was speechless; she had asked a needless question. Although this place was surrounded by

mountains and forests, it was surprisingly dry. Clearly, someone had come here early to clean it up. It

looked spotless, and there was a fireplace with two bundles of firewood beside it. Sitting by the fire,

sipping coffee, listening to music, and holding a book in this cold winter would be the happiest things to

do.

“Can you start a fire?” Zacharias asked. Shirley nodded. “Yes. Are you cold? I’ll light it for you.”

The man agreed to it and she squatted by the fireplace before starting to light the fire. The warmth

spread and she felt warm all over.

She had always wanted a cabin like this in the mountains, a place to find peace away from the world and

undisturbed by anyone. Now, her dream had come true here with Zacharias.

As the fire burned, the whole villa seemed to exude warmth. Next to the fireplace was a couch.

Zacharias brought things in from outside.

Shirley watched as he skillfully retrieved items from the cabinets. He was extremely diligent. It was as if

everything in the room had become incredibly useful in his hands.
