A Moment in Destiny

“What? Leila was shocked. “Sister, when did it happen?”

“Just now!” Macey shouted hysterically, “Leila, you told me that you’re going to take it back for me. He called me and told me that you made him angry. How?”

“Let me see it!” Leila opened the computer in a hurry. “Macey, tell me the website. I need to look at it!”

“Why bother? He’s such a cruel man!” She cursed but she still told her sister the website. “My face is not shown on it. But I know it’s a warning. What have you done to make him so angry?”

“I...” Leila entered the website and saw the footage. But their faces were mosaicked. Apparently it was tempered. She realized that he was really made. Was it truly because she was in Julian’s car?

She hung up and strode straight into Vincent’s study. “Vincent, what do you want?”

She pushed the door open and questioned him. She was truly angry and wanted to know what was this man’s purpose.

“I’m just having fun!” She saw the smirk on his thin lips. It seemed that he was truly enjoying it. Then he spoke, his voice still aloof and cold. “So now you know the consequence of provoking me?” His expression made her even more angry. But she controlled herself and said, “Please, just stop tormenting her!”

“What will you do for it?” He raised his eyebrows.

She was married to him and she had even knelt before him. What did this man desire after all this?

Tears of sorrow swirled in her eyes. Somehow she felt like crying because she didn’t know why this man had to be so cruel. Tears fell down from her cheeks as she lowered her head. She bit her lips and wiped the tears away. “Just tell me what you want!” She said stubbornly.

“Leila, you have to know that you are in no position to talk back to me!” He crossed his hands and stared at her, the amusement plain in his eyes. He even pitied for her when he saw the stubbornness on her pale and pretty little face.

“I’m not!” She said with a low voice.

“Well, that’s good.” Finally there was a hint of smile in his deep eyes. But there was a condescending quality to it. “From now on, stay away from Julian!”

“We’re just friends!” She explained.

“There was no pure friendship between a man and a woman!”

“Not everyone has so many bedmates like you!” She just could not help arguing.

“You want to make me angry again?” His sudden booming voice startled her. She didn’t dare to say one more word. They were all caught in her throat.

Then, he stood straight and cast her a glace with his starry eyes. He raised his eyebrows and said in a sluggish voice, “I play games slowly, so there will be more fun. You better remember that. Do you want to know how the game will continue?”

“What will you do?” She felt frightened.

“Playing a game!” Vincent strode towards the floor-to-ceiling windows, ignited a cigarette. Then she heard his eerie voice again.

“Do you expect it?”
