Enchanted Nightfall: Falling for Destiny ( Quintessa and Tyrone ) novel Chapter 235

Quintessa’s body was stiff, as that voice unearthed from her memory and, without any warning, the person appeared right before her.

Time seemed to stop at that moment, and the piano and chatter around her gradually faded away, leaving only the figure before her to come into focus from the blur.

The person she thought she had forgotten appeared so clearly before her, as if space and time had intertwined, and the moment she caught sight of those eyes, it was as if she was transported back to that dark, cold place filled with sin.

Quintessa’s grip tightened slowly, gripping Tyrone's arm hard enough to hurt, yet neither of their faces showed any signs of discomfort.

Tyrone felt a wave of pang, as he saw Alexander completely stupefied by Quintessa. Squinting his eyes, he laughed, “Alexander, what’s wrong, you look like you've seen a ghost. Is my date that scary?”

Alexander, as if he hadn’t heard Tyrone’s words, stared straight at Quintessa and exclaimed, “Monica.”

There was disbelief in Alexander’s eyes, a deep and complex emotion, and a tenderness he dared not touch.

Tyrone squeezed Quintessa’s hand, with such force she almost thought her fingers would break.

Quintessa came to her senses, slowly raised her head and cast an indifferent glance at Tyrone. By now, if she still didn’t realize why Tyrone had brought her here, she would be a fool.

A few days ago, she had been used him as a pawn at the Lott family’s annual gathering; today, karma had come for her, and she couldn’t help but mock herself.

Tyrone had played quite well.

Tyrone felt a sting from Quintessa’s gaze, like a thorn lodged into his flesh, impossible to pull out.
