A Moment in Destiny

Leila put the lighter and cigarette pack into the pocket of his suit again. She remained silent and sat on his lap without knowing what to say.

"Cough, cough, cough—" Suddenly, she was choked by the smoke from him and coughed uncomfortably. "Mr. White, my trachea is suffering to smell the smoke, can you let me go!"

"No!" Vincent White’s ruthless words rang in Leila’s ears and she continued to cough uncontrollably. Vincent’s eyes condensed and he became quiet, letting her go.

After that, he took out a card and put it on the coffee table. "Go ahead and buy a dress, you are going to join the banquet tonight!"

Leila didn't know how she got out, holding the gold card given by him. She was stunned for a while. This was the first time that he gave her his money. However, she felt like she owed him.

As soon as she walked out of the hotel, her phone rang. Leila turned on it and she found out that it was Vincent’s call. She had never forgotten to answer his call after it rang for three seconds.

"Wait for me at the corner 100 meters ahead, I am going there now!" Vincent said solemnly. Just as he finished his words, he hung up the phone immediately.

Leila looked at the front and walked straight for 100 meters. However, she was a little absent-minded as her mind was recalling the moment that he gave her the gold card. His eyes were deep and his voice was overbearing. She was not given a chance to reject it.

Why did he give her the gold card and why did he order her to attend the banquet tonight? She thought a lot but still couldn't think of a reason. She just felt that the relationship between both of them became very complicated if she spent his money.

That feeling was not good.

Now he called her again, was he going to accompany her to buy a dress?

Her prediction was right. When she was about to reach the corner 100 meters ahead, his Bugatti squeaked to a halt at her side. Leila looked up in a flash and saw the car window rolling down, revealing Vincent’s handsome face.

The deep voice rang, "Get into my car!"

Leila lowered her head, pursing her lips. Then, she got into his car.

After knowing that he might have a backup of the video just now and after taking the card which he forcibly gave, she felt very awkward and terrified of him. She seemed like on the edge.

"Mr. White——"

"I am bringing you to buy a dress. Although there are not many people who know that you are my wife, I am not letting you put me on shame in front of those who know!" Vincent started his car as nothing happened.

He really took her to purchase a dress.

Leila couldn’t believe it. Wasn’t this the same situation that she saw last time? He often helped women to buy clothes. When she thought of that scene, she felt upset and whispered, "If I don’t attend the banquet, I would never put you on shame!"
