Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1407

Chapter 1407

Rita caught it easily. Ruka smiled. “I wish you happiness, Rita.”

Rita stole a glance at Elijah. And perhaps it‘s already right here.

And then it was time to raise toasts. Scarlet and Walter represented their parents and dealt with the guests. Ren and Elijah went with them. Ruka just got pregnant so she couldn‘t drink or walk around, hence she and Rita went to the common room.

“Ruka, is Elijah taken?” Rita asked shyly.

“He‘s single. Ren said he‘s too busy to even have a girlfriend.” Ruka smiled. She knew Rita was interested in Elijah, and she was more than happy to match them up.

“Really?” Rita‘s eyes shone.

“Rita, Elijah‘s a nice guy. You can consider him.”

The banquet wrapped up at eight. There was no entertainment, nor was there any need for it. Ren was already an important enough figure without anyone hyping him out. The people with kids were already going home to see their children.

Rita was about to leave, but then someone said, “Ms. Sommerfield, I had a bit too much to drink. Can you give me a ride?”

It was Elijah. He had been keeping up with Rita. The liquid courage from the alcohol he had gave him the push he needed to tell Rita what he thought.
