Current has a tendency to travel from high potetial region to low potential. Its direction is opposite to the direction of flow of electrons. Hence the electrons flow from low to potential region.

Electron will move towards the high potential i.e. B point because if there is any potential difference the elecric line of forces terminate from higher to lower potential.

No you are wrong point b has more electric field intensity than point a so the force acting on electron is more in case of b than a i think you have a doubt why more electric field intensity it means the amount of work done to bring the charge from any point to b it opposes more electric field strength to bring the electron so more work has to be done i.e more potential so point b has more electric field intensity.
