A Moment in Destiny

"Is this a compliment or sarcasm?" Renee asked rhetorically.

"Compliment from my heart!"

"Thanks, I think I'm cute too!" Renee nodded smugly, "For your compliment, I'll treat you to lunch!"

Unable to resist Renee's warm invitation, Leila had no choice but to join her for lunch at noon, but just as they were walking out the door, she received a message from an unknown number - Let's eat together at noon?! Callum!

"Uh!" Leila was startled and looked at the message in a daze.

"You've an appointment?" Renee asked.

"No!" Leila decided to ignore it, but as soon as they walked out of the office, they bumped into Callum.

"Two beautiful ladies, how about having lunch together?"

"We're going to Seah Restaurant, can you afford to treat us to this meal as a civil servant?" Renee raised an eyebrow.

Callum also smiled and raised his eyebrows, "Just give me a chance, how do you know I can't afford it?"

"Haha! Well, Leila, let Callum treat us to lunch, it's only on me tomorrow!"

So Leila and Renee went to Seah Restaurant by Callum's car.

In the window seat, Renee sat like a leader drinking tea and not forgetting to lecture Callum. "I want sea cucumbers, and I want them wild, not cultivated, and not even semi-cultivated. Leila, what about you?"

"Shrimp dumplings!" Leila said faintly. It suddenly occurred to her that she had also ordered a plate of shrimp dumplings when she had dinner with Vincent yesterday. It seemed that she always liked such simple things. They were economical, not flashy, but they could appease the hunger.

The three of them sat around the table. After Leila said lightly, she also picked up her cup and took a sip of tea. Her line of sight drifted inadvertently to the side, and she happened to see a tall man getting out of a car through the glass window - Vincent.

And from the passenger seat of his car came down a woman wearing a white dress. She was dressed to the nines, with long hair cascading over her shoulders, looking slight and delicate, a typical classic beauty.

Vincent seemed to feel someone looking at him. He turned his eyes and saw Leila inside the glass window. They looked at each other through the glass window, and he froze slightly, then his eyes sharpened.

Leila felt a chill in her heart when she saw Vincent shift his gaze and looked at Callum across from her with a frighteningly cold gloomy expression. Renee, on the other hand, was nowhere to be seen now, and it seemed that only she and Callum were at this table. She felt something wrong with the atmosphere, and the hair on the back of her neck couldn't help but stand up in fear.

Her heart pounded with trepidation and she withdrew her gaze.

At that moment, the woman in white also walked up to Vincent's side and they walked into the restaurant. Judging from this scene, they should be familiar with each other. After they walked into the restaurant, Vincent darted his gaze toward Leila again. Then Leila saw him striding in her direction, and her heart beat like a drum…
