Chapter 599: Chapter 599

It was the first time for Elijah to see her being timid. Her head dropped on her chest. He did not know what had happened. When he wanted to ask, his phone suddenly rang.

“Hello!” Elijah said.

“Elijah! Don’t let Esther come to the charity anymore, Lilah let Esther watch pornography!” Ethel confessed through the phone. “Look after my sister, don’t let her learn something bad!”

Elijah was startled, he subconsciously looked at Esther. No wonder she was being timid and panting, so it was what it was! ...

(Nothing to be described) ...

It was half past six in the evening.

Elijah brought Esther to D University. The car was parked in front of the design building, “I’ll wait for you here, come down right after you finish your class!”

“But it would be around one and a half hour! It would be 8.30 p.m. by the time I finish!” Did he mean that he was going to keep waiting?

“I’ll wait for you!” He replied. “Just go!”

“Okay!” Esther got out of the car quietly. She turned around and looked at Elijah. He was back to being cold as if he was just doing it for her.

She pouted, “Do you have anything to say?”

He looked at her, the sky was a little dark. Then he said, “Come here!”

He stretched out his hand and grabbed her head. He kissed her tiny lips. “You’re my woman! That’s what I want to say!”

Esther blushed and rubbed her nose. “I know!”

Then, she turned around and happily walked to the class.

She was feeling relaxed and her steps did not seem to be heavy, she walked gently into the elevator while humming.

Elijah kept waiting outside of the building, Esther could only get out of class at 8.30 p.m. He kept waiting but he felt extremely happy.

His phone rang, he took out and answered the phone coldly, “Say it!”

“Young master! The investigation shows that Philip is the recent real estate developer tycoon in Q City. New City Properties was established two years ago. Within two years, it was now the largest real estate company in Q City. With the support of the government, they managed to take over all government projects. According to other resources, he was in the United States for seven years then he went to study International Finance course at Harvard University. He also obtained a double bachelor’s degree in both Business Administration and Financial Engineering within four years. As you were doubting about his other identity, the investigation did not manage to find anything else! He changed his name to Philip when he immigrated illegally into the United States. We don’t know his previous name; I believe that there was someone who destroyed all his previous data on purpose!”

“Okay!” Elijah replied coldly. “Continue to follow his whereabouts!”

“Yes!”

The phone was hung up.

Elijah took out another phone, which seemed like a special communication tool. He dialed an international number, “It’s me!”

There was laughter with a hint of crack jokes coming out from the phone, “Little punk, what make you think of me?”

“Does Philip Howlden work for you?” Elijah asked directly.

“Uh! Philip Howlden? Philip! Little punk, how could I know Philip? Who’s Philip? It should be nighttime on your side, right? You call me at night just to ask about Philip?” The voice from the other side sounded very dissatisfied. “Why should I tell you?”

“If you don’t know him and if I hurt him, you should not blame me then!” Elijah’s eyes were bright and shiny, he asked coldly, “Are you sure you don’t know who he is?”

“Hurt him? Hahaha... Elijah, you might be no match for him!” There was arrogant laughter coming from the phone. “Philip is not worse than you!”

“Does that mean he’s with you?”

“Yes! If you don’t take over, I’m planning to let him inherit my properties and expand the empire!”

“I know! Let him take over your properties then, I’ll hang up!” Elijah wanted to hang up the phone.

“Ah... don’t hang up yet!” The one shouted eagerly from the other side.

Elijah waited.

“I heard that you’re married, your partner is someone whom you fell in love with when you were a kid! Elijah, a cold person like you can be so romantic?” I don’t know if she’s qualified to be the chief’s wife!”

“Nonsense!” When he thought of Esther, Elijah’s face became relaxed. “I’ve said that I don’t want to be a chief!”

“It’s boring! Think about it again, Elijah. No one is more suitable than you!”

“I don’t want that!”

“Little punk, do you think it’s easy for anyone to be a chief?”

...

“Goodbye!” Elijah replied in a deep voice and hung up the phone without a trace of politeness. He sat in the car while pursing his lips. Yes, he’s married. Although the way it had been done was not good, there was nothing that he could not get if he wanted.

Time flew as it was almost time for the class to end. Elijah got out of the car and came to the lobby on the first floor to wait for her nearby the elevator.

There was a tall figure in the shadow of the corridor on the first floor. He did not want to attract any attention in the school but he just wanted to pick up his woman, it was so contradictory.

There was a crowd coming out from the elevator but he did not see Esther.

Elijah was feeling uneasy when he looked at the elevator. Why hadn’t she come down yet?

He lit up a cigarette while leaning on the side. He looked worried. But he did not dare to go up because he was afraid to miss her halfway. Damn that little girl, he was worried.

Although he knew that she went for the class and knowing that she was fine. But when he saw other students were going back, he was still worried.

He did not want her to study here and he even thought of binding her to his side. So that she would not go anywhere else and be his little woman only.

As the smoke was lingering around, his eyes suddenly darkened. Elijah narrowed his eyes as he looked at the figure running down to the exit of the staircase. Damn it! It was Esther! He threw his cigarette on the floor and ran towards her like a whirlwind.

As he raised his head, he met Esther’s eyes with tears dropping.

“Oh babe, why are you crying?” Elijah was feeling uneasy about her and he was worried.

“Elijah Perry!” Esther raised her head and looked at his face. Then, she squeezed her head into his chest. At that moment, she lost all her courage, “Can I not study anymore?”

“Why not?” He asked.

No one knew what happened.

“I would like to be the lazy worm for the rest of my life, is that okay?” She asked unhappily.

“What happened?” He stretched out his hands to hug her. “Let’s talk when we’re home!”

He supported her to get into the car without knowing what had happened to her. She came down and kept crying, it was not like her!

Both of them got into the car but he did not start the engine. He realized that Esther was grabbing the corner of his shirt tightly. Her sad expression was like a doll abandoned by someone, she looked so pitiful that it made anyone feel sorry for her.

Then, she leaned herself over. “I am stupid, right?”

“Uh! Who says that you’re stupid?” He asked politely. Elijah sighed for a while and kissed Esther’s forehead gently, “Tell me, what happened?”

Esther raised her head and looked at him, “My tutor said I’m stupid!”

“Tutor?” Elijah frowned, “Why is there such a mean tutor? Which tutor would comment that their students are stupid! This is not acceptable! I’m going to file a complaint tomorrow and change another tutor!”

Esther looked at his face and the way he criticized her tutor. She felt so indignant. She suddenly smiled. “Hehe, it’s good to have a husband! The tutor is fine, I’m just too stupid!”

After she finished talking, she grabbed his neck and kissed his face. Elijah was startled for a moment.

“Tutor was right! Sometimes I’m a little stupid. I was framed, and I even defended others therefore tutor said that I was stupid!” She was beaming with joy. “Because today someone pulled my chair and wanted me to fall. My tutor saw it and scolded the person, but I defended that person. My tutor said “I’ve never seen such a stupid student, you were bullied yet you defended her!’”

When Elijah heard about it, his heart ached a little. “Who wants to hurt you? Are you hurt?”

“No!” She shook her head.

“What are you crying for then? He was feeling uneasy and wanted to go back to check it out. Damn it, who dared to bully his babe.

“I just feel a little lonely, everyone doesn’t like me!” She pressed her lips.

“That’s because everyone is jealous of you!” When he replied, he thought of the recent news that she was part of the Ball family. He could not help but sigh for a while. “You’re not alone, those who are jealous of you, they are not worthy to be your friends! Aren’t you friends with Lena? It’s good enough to have just one or two good friends!”

She was listening to his words while looking at his good-looking chin. She suddenly wanted to have a home, but she was worried about losing it! He had given her home, but she kept worrying that it would be gone! Or lost!

Elijah looked at her and smiled gently. He stroked her cheek with his slender hand and whispered, “Don’t think too much. Let’s go to the company after you finish your class. You won’t feel lonely with me. Neither will I give you the chance to be alone!”

The last sentence sounded so ambiguous that Esther started to blush.

Elijah’s eyes seemed like smiling and he said in a hoarse voice, “Let’s go home!”

After he drove out from D University, his phone rang.

He opened and answered it. He sounded distant and cold, “Kattie, what’s up?”

She did not know what was said from the other side!

Esther was startled when she heard the word “Kattie’. She felt a little uneasy. Then, she heard Elijah’s reply to her. “Okay, tomorrow is the weekend.

There’s nothing much in the company but I want to bring my babe for an outing! Take care of yourself! Hope that you get well soon! We’ll not go to the hospital tomorrow! Even the day after tomorrow!”

Esther frowned and heard Elijah’s reply again. “Kattie, don’t worry about the hospital bills. Esther is my wife; I’ll take care of it! I apologize for the harm that I’ve caused to you!”

He hung up the phone after he finished talking and continued driving in peace.

“Elijah, were you just acting to be kind at Kattie in front of me?” After Esther hesitated for a while, she could not help but ask him instead.

Elijah remained silent. He could not help but press on his lips with a hint of joy.

“Are you lying to me?” She asked again.

“Where are we going tomorrow?” He asked back.

“Ah! Are we not going to see Kattie tomorrow? You just said that we’re not going to see her tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Does she want you to go?”

“No!” He replied instantly. “There’s a caregiver who can take care of her, there’s nothing to worry about!”

“Are you sure?” She started to feel suspicious and suddenly frowned. She said in dissatisfaction, “Men are terrible, he was gentle with that woman before but he was so cold at her in the next second!”

He shook his head and laughed. “Oh dear, are you complaining for another woman?”

“Anyway, you’re a cold-blooded person!” She said indignantly.

He stretched out his hand and held her little hand while holding the steering wheel. “Dear, can we trust each other no matter what we do? we have to believe in each other!”

“It’s you who don’t like to believe in me!” She accused.

“Next time, I won’t!” He replied.

“Okay! Good! Are you worthy of my trust?” She could not help but wonder. “Who knows if you’re going to use me like how you used Kattie?”

“I won’t use you!” He said, “Even death, I wouldn’t!”

“We’ll see then! We’ll see your performance then! If you don’t treat me well, I will go back to stay with Hudson. I have two brothers now!”

“Babe?” He was doomed. Elijah looked at her with a feeling of frustration while holding her little hand tightly. He declared domineeringly, “I’m your family, you can’t think of anyone else in the future!”

“Elijah, are you happy?” Esther suddenly replied. She grabbed his hand and intertwined her fingers with his.

He held her hand tightly and asked back. “Are you?”

“I don’t know!” She answered sincerely.

He was stunned. “Not happy?”

She frowned and wondered, “Why do you want to marry me?”

“Because you’re my babe?” It was still the same sentence.

“Why do you want to call me babe?” She did not understand. She frowned and asked again.

A Moment in Destiny Chapter 598 Not the Right Time The convenient Bride Chapter 414: There Is Nothing Happier Than This (Ending)

Predestined Marriage Chapter 1718: The End He became speechless perhaps she could not remember it. It was better if she could not remember those dark memories. Forgetting about some memories was some sort of happiness! He only wished that she would be happy all the time!

“Silly, the future is still long. You will be happy for the rest of your life! You are just so curious, and your husband needs to focus on driving the car.

Don’t be too passionate! I don’t mind being passionate with you on the bed!” He replied in a deep tone. It was also his vow. Elijah was holding her little hand while happiness was flowing out from his eyes. He would make sure that she would be happy for the rest of her life.

It was the weekend in the apartment.

“Elijah, don’t disturb me, I’m so tired!” There was a deep intolerance in her hoarse voice, Esther closed her eyes and pushed the hand which was harassing her. Then, she turned around and continued sleeping.

Elijah looked at the time, it was already 11 a.m. There was an evil smile on his face, he lied on Esther while stretching his hand into her clothes. Her smooth skin made him feel like his blood vessel was about to explode.

“Didn’t you say that we’re going for an outing? How can we go if you don’t want to get up?”

“So tired! I’m so tired!” She shouted. “Not again, I’m really tired!”

“Fine! Sleep then!” He sighed and let go of her. He kissed her forehead after.

“No! I want to go for an outing!” Esther sat up with a pair of puffy eyes. She rubbed her eyes while feeling annoyed because she could not sleep well.

It was him who did not let her sleep well. She was damn tired.

The silk slowly slid down from the pajamas. The wrinkled clothes stuck on her perfect breast. It was floating while she was breathing.
