A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 597 Love and Possession

"Esther, go home with him and just solve any misunderstanding, then everything will be alright!" Hudson's tone was soft and there was some hidden loneliness in it. "After you guys reconciled with each other, you may come back whenever you like. I don't like to see your unhappy face!"

"Hudson..." Esther was touched, and her tears dropped down.

Hudson knew her well and he knew that she was unhappy. He knew what she truly desired!

After hanging up the phone, she turned his head to look outside the window and started to cry while pursing her lips.

Since when, Esther who used to be happy and worriless started to become a cry baby?

Elijah Perry was downhearted and did not speak. He just outstretched one of his hands to hold her small hand and tried to ask for her forgiveness.

Esther shook off his hand forcefully like a child who was at loggerheads. She grabbed the phone given by Hudson. Elijah saw it and asked, "Where is the previous phone?"

Esther remained silent.

"Broken?" He asked.

"In the public toilet. You can it back if you want!" Finally, she replied the question with an unpleasant attitude but she was regretful for answering his question again. Then, she remained silent again.

She looked outside the window again and when she recalled the dismal that day, her eyes were distracted then went blank. After being stunning for a while, she blinked her eyes as if she was trying to blink off something. Then, her eyes became clearer and brighter.

"Drop into the toilet?" Elijah finally got it. No wonder regardless of the attempts he made to call her to confirm her location, she did not pick up the phone. So actually, it dropped into the toilet. When they returned to the apartment, Elijah took off Esther's clothes as soon as he walked in the apartment.

"Eh! What are you doing?" Esther was astonished. "Elijah, you are a pervert! Bastard!"

But, Elijah just removed her clothes to check her back, which was then with a tinge of purple due to food poisoning. He was sorrowful uncontrollably and asked, "Babe, do you still feel sad?" Actually, he was just checking the bleeding spot under her skin!

His big hand was touching her back and there were some wounds on her front chest. Esther got back to her sense. Suddenly, she removed his hand and said, "It's not your business!" She got rid of him. She did not care that she was just wearing underclothes and directly walked into the bathroom.

"I help you to wash!" Elijah stepped forward quickly and directly pushed open the door before she closed it. After going in, he helped her to prepare the water for her to shower.

Esther did not show any expression on her face and did not look at him as well.

Elijah turned his head and looked at her pitifully. "Babe, tell me, do you still feel uncomfortable?"

"You should go to the hospital to take care of Kattie Cole! I don't need your gentleness and Kattie needs it!" Esther stared at his handsome face and said mercilessly, "She needs your care, not me!" "Babe, I know that you are blaming me!" Elijah grabbed her hand tightly and looked into her eyes deeply. "Don't get angry. Don't make trouble! Shower!"

Esther could not bear from trembling. She could feel the warmness from his palm through the hand that was grabbed by him. Her eyes turned clearer and when she looked at him, she felt a sense of perplexity. "I will wash it myself!"

"I'll help you!" He insisted...

(Indescribable)...

"Can you not be so shameless?" Esther's face blushed and said in a way that was full of jealousy, "Elijah, do you know that you are so shameless? You should go to help Kattie to wash and I don't need your help!"

"Why do you say that?" Elijah raised his eyebrow. "Are you jealous?"

"Get out! I will suffer more if you stay here. Get out! Can you listen? I am exhausted. Elijah, are you aware that you are harming me? I just got poisoned and you hurt me after I had just recovered a bit. You bastard!"

"Uncomfortable?" Elijah said in surprise. "Where do you feel uncomfortable? Let's go to the hospital, okay?"

"Get out!" Esther shouted shyly and pushed him away. "Quick, get out immediately!"

"Okay! I get out!" He felt helpless and worried. "Take your time. I will go and take the clothes for you!" Anyway, he got out too!

After closing the door, Esther covered her face with both of her hands while muttering.

Would she give in so easily? What was it? He saw that she was sharing an umbrella together with Philip and she put on Philip's shirt. But, why would all these happen? It was because he didn't come back that night which resulted in her insomnia and then she felt lonely!

Also, wasn't it very normal? She did not do anything else.

...

Ugh! After all, she was too lonely! Or, was it because they did not love each other that much and caused them lack of trust? Was this so called love? Esther shook her head and mocked herself. If the love that one had had no trust for each other, then there was no reason to have it. Then, did she believe Elijah?

But now, she knew that he might be jealous and all these weird things happened due to jealousy. She was still unhappy because not everything would be solved after an apology. For example, he could gently feed Kattie to eat but she could not share an umbrella with another man!

Was the relationship between them love or possession? She could not tell the difference at that moment.

While thinking, Esther slept in the bathroom unexpectedly.

Elijah waited for her for a long time but did not see her coming out. So, he gently opened the door and realized that she had fallen asleep!

Damn, she would catch a cold if she just slept like this. He walked towards her and lowered his head. The water in the bathtub was still warm.

However, he looked at the body in the water and her round and plump breast, it made him suffocate. The tits looked like a fruit that was so fresh and attractive. Elijah suppressed his desire forcefully and bent his waist to carry her. He covered her body with a piece of towel and got her out from the bathtub.

Esther woke up with a start and realized that she was carried by him then brought to the bedroom. "Put me down!"

At the moment when she was shocked, her eyes met with Elijah's eyes which were filled with desire. Every man would have some feelings when hugging a woman with such beautiful body shape. It was the same for Elijah. He was not a saint after all.

He had already walked into the room and put her on the bed. When Esther covered herself with the bath towel, he used a towel to wipe away the water drops on her body. Then, he took a hair dryer and tried not to look at her body. "I'll help you to dry your hair!"

"I'll do it myself!" She was still angry.

He looked at her and walked towards her then stood behind her. He lifted her wet hair and started to help her dry her hair.

Esther was stunned while sitting and dared not move. How could it be possible that he wanted to help her to dry her hair? This was the first time. But, her tone was still not friendly.

"Why don't you go to the hospital to take care of Kattie? I don't need your care and I can do it myself!"

Without him, she also lived well.

Elijah remained silent and switched on the hair dryer while stroke her hair with his big hand. He was drying her hair seriously.

The rumbling sound was echoing in the indoor and both of them remained silent. His hand was touching her hair naturally and felt that her soft hair was moving through his hand. The feeling made him feel as it he was touching her soft skin and he liked it.

After a while, Elijah felt that it was almost done and felt Esther's hair which was slightly moist. He switched off the hair dryer and put it back. He gently pressed Esther's shoulder with both of his hands and stood behind her.

Her face slightly blushed due to the hot air blowing from the hair dryer and it looked like a juicy peach. Elijah moved his hand to gently caress her neck and he wanted to kiss her again.

However, he bore with it and said, "Rest early, your body has not recovered yet! You should sleep more."

After saying that, he took out a piece of blanket from the cupboard and said, "I will sleep on the sofa!"

He knew that her body was not in good condition and he was afraid that he could not control himself. If he did something which was harmful to her, he would be regretful till death. Esther was stunned. Did he say he slept on the sofa?

She did not say anything and Elijah directly walked to the outside.

Without knowing the reason, Esther was a little disappointed. She lifted the blanket and went into bed after changing into a pajama. But no matter how, she could not fall asleep. Elijah, who was outside the room, could not fall asleep as well.

1...2...3...4...5...99...900...999...' Esther was counting inside her heart and she almost reached a thousand, but she was still unable to fall asleep. Why was she unable to fall asleep? Normally, she would sleep directly when she touched the bed. Why was it that she lay down for so long and her body had not recovered yet then still she could not sleep? Wasn't she able to sleep in the bathroom just now? Why couldn't she fall asleep while lying on the bed?

Esther was suffering while tossing and turning sleeplessly. She would like to change into a comfortable position and perhaps it would help her to fall asleep.

She was struggling during the adjustment. After laying down, she sat up and laid down again!

Outside of the living room, suddenly there was phone ringing sound. Esther was stunned and heard that Elijah purposely lowered his voice, "Kattie?"

It was called by Kattie and Esther felt something not right. She was still pouting her mouth and her ears were focusing uncontrollably on listening to Elijah's words. "If anything happens, go seek a doctor. Yes, I am at home. Babe is not feeling well, and I need to take care of her!"

"Yes! I will not go to the hospital for these few days. There are caregivers around you and you take care of yourself! I want to stay besides babe!"

"Yes! Kattie, I am sorry that I indeed made use of you the day before yesterday! Your feeling was not wrong!"

Esther frowned.

What was Elijah talking about?

Did he make use of Kattie? What did he mean?

"Take care of yourself. I am going to hang up the call!" Elijah hung up the call.

He was worried about waking up Esther so he approached the bedroom silently. Immediately, Esther held her breath.

Elijah only opened the door slightly at the entrance and stood there for a while then gently closed the door.

Esther kept thinking of what he said just now. What did he mean that he had made use of Kattie previously? She was unable to bear her curiosity and she need to know. If she did not find out, she could not fall asleep!

"Elijah!" At the moment when the door was about to be closed, she shouted hurriedly.

"Haven't you slept?" Elijah was slightly shocked and opened the door. The lights were switched on.

Esther sat up and tidied her messy hair. She asked, "Just now you said that you made use of Kattie previously. What do you mean?"

He was slightly shocked and raised his eyebrow, "Did you hear that?"

Esther agreed sorrowfully, "Yes. I heard it!"

"Why haven't you slept?" He did not answer the question. He walked into the room and sat at the side of the bed.

"Don't change the subject!" She wanted to know what he meant. "Kattie is so precious to you and why did you make use of her? Elijah, I suspect that you are making use of me too!"

Elijah outstretched his big hand and pulled her into his arms. "If you can't sleep, let's do something else."

He gave a slight smile on his handsome face because he had waited for a long time. He could not fall asleep and did not expect that she was the same too. Did it mean that he could do something else? Esther was shocked and when she was going to reject him, his lips had blocked her lips precisely. They started to kiss.

Erm... Esther felt hot from inside her body but it was like a type of thirst. On the other hand, because of his moist lips, her lips were freed in some sort of ways. His kiss made the dryness in her body slowly

melt.

Elijah caressed her back gently using his both hands.

"Tell me, why?"

"If I tell you, does it mean that we can do something else, right?" He asked it evilly while he looked into her eyes deeply.

"Ah! You tell me first!"
