Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1444

Chapter 1444

She wouldn’t be marrying Nigel and wasn’t going to steal their chance of becoming Mrs. Manson.

After getting into Nigel’s car, Queenie’s stomach began to rumble. She clutched her stomach awkwardly and asked hesitantly, “Have you eaten dinner yet?”

“Yes.” Nigel’s hands rested elegantly on the steering wheel as he drove them out of the hotel compound.

Well, it’s almost 9.00PM. Who else would’ve gone without dinner apart from me?

“Mr. Manson, would it be possible for me to make a somewhat unreasonable request?” Queenie

ventured.

He eyed her thoughtfully. An unreasonable request? What’s she trying to do now?

She got straight to the point. “Can I get an advance of this month’s salary?”

“That’s not part of the company’s regular practice.” He denied her request without missing a beat. He wasn’t about to make a special exception for her.

She had a determined look on her face. “There’s no way I’m doing that. My Dad kicked me out of the house. I have to survive on my own.”

“From the looks of it now, that’s not something you’re capable of.” Nigel shot her down right away. Queenie bit her lip and glared at him. Does he find it fun to put a damper on my spirits? I don’t expect him to comfort me, but he doesn’t have to dash my hopes like that now, does he? It’s my first time getting kicked out of the house too! So, it’s not like I have any experience in this.

She rested her head on the door and stared out the window. At the same time, her stomach started growling again.

She had no choice but to try and negotiate with her stomach, “Can you be quiet for just one night? I’ll feed you tomorrow morning.”
