Night of Destiny (Anastasia Tillman)

Chapter 1960

Chapter 1960

As the villa was too spacious and empty except for Milkshake which was in her arms, Ellen lost her appetite for dinner and only

stayed on the couch in the living room. Just then, her phone rang.

She instantly jolted in fear, but upon seeing that the call was from Jared, she let out a small sigh of relief and answered, “Hello?”

“Have you eaten?”

After hanging up, she suddenly realized that Milkshake had disappeared. If it had escaped outside at this hour, it would be difficult

to find it. “Milkshake! Where did you go, Milkshake?”

As Ellen spoke, she picked up her phone and walked toward the exit of the living room. She didn’t notice that, just inside the back

cushion, there was a small tail that belonged to Milkshake swaying in the air. Milkshake was on the couch all along. “Milkshake,

don’t run around. Where are you?” Ellen called out, heading outside to search for the cat.

Ellen ended up trailing into the garden as she was searching, but just then, her phone rang again. After taking a glance at her

phone, she saw that it was yet another unknown number. Although the number was different, she knew that it was a prank call

even without picking up.

Thus, she decided not to answer and silenced her phone as she still needed it to light her way. However, she could still feel the

chilling wind sweeping around her, leaving her with no choice but to return to the living room.

However, her phone continued to ring with calls, all from unknown numbers, and she soon had more than ten missed calls before

she realized it. This urging was torture on her mind, leaving her with no choice but to turn off her phone.

As tslowly ticked by, the autumn breeze roared harshly as Ellen curled up on the couch.. Although her surroundings were

brightly illuminated, the silence seemed even louder after she turned off her phone.

At that moment, she was enshrouded by her memories, unable to get rid of them no matter how hard she tried. Her mental state

slowly got chipped away bit by bit, as if she were stuck in a maze without an exit.

Jared was just deep in thought about his work when he looked up and saw a figure flashing toward him. Immediately after, Ellen

jumped into his arms, firmly wrapping her arms around him.

He jolted in surprise at first, but he soon sensed something off about her. She was hugging him extremely tightly as if she were

afraid of something.

Jared returned her embrace and gently caressed the back of her head, asking gently, “What's wrong?”

Just then, her phone rang again. Clearly, the prankster was not only calling her after midnight. As long as her phone was turned on,

they would keep calling her.

Ellen jolted at the sound, and as she looked at her phone, Jared reached out and took her phone with his large hand, asking, “Do

you want to pick it up?”

“Someone's prankingby scaringthrough the phone,” she replied.

Hearing that, he answered the call, only to hear a harrowing cry from the other end. “Ellen Reiss, | won't let you off easily. I'll turn

into a spirit and haunt you for the rest of your life.”

Jared's handsface darkened as he immediately hung up. Just as he was about to return Ellen’s phone to her, a large number of

text message notifications sounded on her phone.

Seeing that he was about to open the texts, she hurriedly stopped him. “Don’t look, those are all scary pictures.”
