A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 674 My Family

"Esther!" Ethel turned around and decided to hold Esther to protect her even if Eva pointed her gun at Esther. When Eva shoot again, a flurry of shots rang. A lot of people came, with guns in their hands! Ethel was protecting Esther. Esther ouched with pains and scolded him. "It's all your fault. I am nearly killed!"

"I'm sorry!" Ethel carried her to the car when there was chaos.

Because of these people that appeared suddenly, Eva was taken away, and those men in black got into the car. Another group of people began to chase them.

Esther knew Elijah had these men protect her!

When she was beside the car, the blood dropped on her hand. Her shoulder hurt, but there should not be so much blood. She titled her head and found that Ethel was bleeding. "Ethel, you're injured!"

"It doesn't matter!" Ethel shook his head. "Get in the car!" He pushed Esther into the car. "Lie on the backseat and don't move! I'll take you to the hospital!"

"You're injured. Why do you keep bleeding?" Esther was scared and almost cried!

Ethel gritted his teeth and got on the car. A person appeared and said to Esther, "Madam, I come here to protect you. I'll send you to the hospital!" In the hospital.

"Esther!" Elijah rushed in with a pale face. He looked at the blood on Esther's shoulder and his eyes were filled with coldness. "Damn it. I'll kill her!"

"I'm fine!" Though she looked pale with pains, she was clear-minded. Ethel was in the emergency room. The doctor said that the middle of Ethel's back may be hit. It was serious.

"Where's the doctor? Hurry up to have her wounds dressed!" Elijah roared and threw his arms around Esther's waist.

The doctor was about to take the bullet out of Esther, but the door was kicked by Elijah and he broke in.

The doctor was not surprised at all. Elijah was a domineering man and could not stand that his beloved got hurt. Therefore, the doctor was not affected and continued to disinfect the wounds and have them dressed.

Elijah looked at the wounds on her fair shoulder. When the doctor dressed her wounds, Elijah felt pain.

Esther looked pale because she lost a lot of blood, but she didn't cry. She was like a stubborn and lonely doll in winter.

"Elijah, I thought that I couldn't see you anymore!" Esther couldn't help but cry in Elijah's arms. Esther tightly grasped Elijah's hand, "We're almost killed!"

Elijah's gaze turned sharp and he put on a gloomy look, "I'll let her pay the price!"

Her wounds had been dressed.

Esther leaned against Elijah powerlessly and asked about Ethel. "By the way, what about Ethel?"

"He's all right!" Elijah picked her up. "We're going home!"

A week later.

It was reported that Eva solicited in the nightclub. She went crazy, fell off, and died after she was played with by three men.

"Is Ethel really fine?" Esther was grounded and stayed at home for a week.

"Sure!"

"Did you have anything to do with Eva's death?"

"Don't be curious. Her death does not harm us." Eva died by accident, but Elijah felt that a big trouble had been solved. He felt angry about Ethel because Esther was involved in Ethel's affairs and got hurt. "I'll call Ethel!" Esther said, "Why does he turn off his cell phone?"

"He may feel guilty and have no courage to see you. Don't think of him. He won't die!"

"If he hadn't stood in front of me, I would have died. I should go to see him." After all, it was not his fault. Esther wanted to figure out if Ethel loved her.

In the hospital.

Philip visited Ethel, "You almost kill my sister!"

Ethel's heart twitched, "Esther is fine?"

"She gets much better and keeps asking your conditions. Do you want to see her?"

Ethel shook his head, "I am not so brazen-faced!"

"You didn't mean it! Eva has died. You are afraid of seeing Esther, aren't you?" Philip laughed. "You fear that you cannot control your feelings? You've loved her secretly for so many years. What do you fear?" "You?" Ethel was stunned, "How did you see that?"

"I am not Elijah. I won't trouble you. But if he knows that you love her wife, I am afraid that he will cut it off with you!" Philip chuckled. "Esther is so charming that a lot of men love her!"

***

"Go to hell! I am so sad, but you have the mood to tease me!" Ethel sighed. He didn't show his feelings for Esther. Why did Philip know it?

"You're a man!" Philip patted his shoulder, "It's hard to love a woman for so many years. Elijah didn't give you a chance to compete. It's so unfair."

"He is my friend. Esther is his wife. I won't flirt with his wife. But I am not willing to accept this face. Can Elijah have fun with Esther? If I had known Esther before he did, she would have been my wife!" "Your brother has known Esther for many years, but Esther doesn't become his wife?"

"I'm not my brother!"

The door was kicked open. A gust of wind came in, sending a shiver down people's spines.

Ethel and Philip look towards the door. They saw Elijah and Esther stand at the door. Elijah put on a gloomy face and Esther was a little embarrassed. She didn't mean to eavesdrop. Elijah told her to be silent. She didn't expect that Ethel loved her.

"Ethel, are you feeling better?" Esther tried to be natural.

"Esther, it's good that you're fine!" Ethel was not embarrassed. He confirmed that Elijah had heard what they said, but he didn't say anything about it. Ethel felt pain when he looked at Esther who was standing by Elijah's side.

After all, it's the most miserable thing to love a person that never loved you. Though Ethel was strong, he felt her heart torn apart when he saw Esther standing beside another man. He was too painful to breathe, but he pretended to be calm.

When Esther made sure that Ethel was fine, she smiled, embraced him, and whispered, "Ethel, you are always my family and my brother. I can sacrifice myself for you."

When she hugged Ethel, Elijah pulled her back. Though Elijah knew that Esther just wanted to comfort Ethel, Elijah felt angry since even Esther coveted his wife.

Ethel looked at Elijah who was domineering. His nose twitched and he smiled, "You are my most lovely sister!"

"He's fine! Let's go!" Elijah did not wait for Ethel to say anything and took Esther away.

Philip pouted, couldn't stand what Elijah did, and said to Ethel, "You can be happier if you let her go! Esther only cares about Elijah now, so Elijah must have some strong points. You will meet your soulmate." Philip patted Ethel's shoulder and saw off Elijah and Esther. Then he continued, "The most important thing is that Elijah can make Esther happy!"

"Yes. It seems that I can only send Esther my best wishes!" Ethel was frustrated, but he was frank about it. He raised his head and smiled faintly. Esther and he were doomed to miss each other!

"I'm very surprised about that!" Esther looked at Elijah who strode forward with a gloomy face, "I didn't betray you. Why are you angry?"

Elijah strode forward without a word.

"Are you jealous?"

"Walk slowly!" Esther could not keep up with him and stopped. She looked at him at a loss. Damn it. She didn't betray him. Why was he so angry?

"Elijah, if you continue, I won't talk to you!" Esther threatened Elijah.

Elijah's dark eyes became dim. His mind went blank, but he stopped.

Esther walked over to him. She lowered her head and walked past him slowly. "You're unreasonable, and I don't like you like that!"

Elijah opened his eyes, suddenly turned over, and caught up with her to stop her. He squinted. "Should I not be angry?"

"You're so mean!" She pouted. "But you look lovely when you're angry!"

She walked up to him, looked at him, put her arms around his waist, and buried her face on his chest. "Elijah, don't be angry." He stretched out his hand and spoke. "I'm not mad at you!"

He was just mad at Ethel for having a crush on Esther.

"We are going to get married and holding a grand ceremony. I'll tell the world that you're my woman. Nobody can covet you." "Alright! Kneel!" She spoke.

She was joking, but she didn't expect that Ethel would be on his knee. "Marry me, Esther!"

He kneeled in the corridor. The crowd looked at them with all kinds of expressions.

"Get up!" Esther was embarrassed and held him up, but he refused to get up.

"You haven't said yes!" He blushed.

"Alright, I'll marry you!"

"Let's go home!"

Her lovely face and sweet fragrance surprised Elijah. He couldn't help but throw his arms around her shoulder.

Esther was stunned and his handsome face got closer.

Without expectation, he kissed her with a content and mischievous smile.

He nibbled her lips, put his tongue into her mouth, and their tongues intertwined. She could not even breathe and groaned, "Elijah..."
