A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 280 The Hibernating Leopard

Leila felt suffocated. As she was holding her breath, she seemed to have heard Vincent’s ragged gasp. She subconsciously looked at Vincent, and realized that he was staring at her. She suddenly panicked; her voice also started to tremble. “Sorry, I'm hanging up! That's your own business.”

After she said that, she hung up the phone, looked at Vincent, and explained sheepishly, “It's just a friend!”

At the same moment, the phone rang again, and Leila was so scared that she almost jumped up.

Vincent remained silent; he did not say anything. He just held out his hand, signaling that he wanted her to hand over the phone.

Leila was nervous. “It's really just a friend whom came back from Australia not long ago!”

‘Hand it over!” He said in a deep voice.

He had already stood up; his long arm reached over and took the phone directly from her hand. He then looked at the number and answered the phone. Since he also pressed the speaker button, Leila was able to hear Theodore’s voice.

“Leila, I still like you… just give both of us a chance! I really like you.”

Leila raised her head in a panic, she wanted to stop Theodore from taking nonsense. However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she heard Vincent spoke in a deep voice, “Who are you?”

On the other end of the phone, Theodore seemed to be stunned, he then quickly hung up the phone.

After what just happened, Leila seemed to have an unexplainable feeling, she whispered, “It's a senior who was formerly from our school! I don't know how he knew my phone number!”

Vincent just put the phone on the table and raised his eyebrows. “The word ‘senior’ is a very flirty word!”

Leila’s was shocked, was he looking for trouble? If so, that was the thing that she was scared of.

“This man likes you! He’s confessing his love for you!”

“I don't know!”

“He had already confessed though the phone, both you and I heard it! Why are you still acting dumb?”

The sentence that he has said was the main point. Leila, who has never been very logical, suddenly realized, he was angry because of Theodore’s sudden confession. However, who knew that he would suddenly come out and say that to her, even though he did have feelings for her in the past, but it had already been three years and times had changed.

It's just that she did not understand. Vincent obviously did not love her; he did not even like her. However, he still could not let her go, it should be because he wanted to maintain his reputation, “Then what do you want?”

She looked up at him and saw the mockery through his eyes… mocking at her as if he did not care about her.

“I'm wondering if I've been too tolerant towards you!” It was now that he squatted down, a cold smile could be seen on Vincent’s handsome face.

Leila frowned. “Tolerant?!”

She really did not know how he dared to say that word, “He really is just my senior, but you should also have juniors, right? The word ‘juniors’ is also a very flirty word to use, it’s even flirtier than the word ‘senior’. You are also a flirtatious person, both literally and figuratively. For example, you always have a woman by your side. Even if this person likes me, so what? You are also liked by many people, right? The only difference between you and I is, I am still performing the duties of marriage while you are not!” Leila suddenly felt some heaviness in her heart. She raised her eyes, secretly sighed with relief, and slowly spoke the words in her heart. “So, if you want to pick a fight with me, I can only say the innocent will always able to prove oneself! I have nothing to be guilty of!”

He did not say anything. After being silent for a long time, he put out the cigarette in his hand with his finger, threw it into the cigarette holder, and laughed teasingly, “How can you claim innocent if you are already not a virgin!”

Being scolded by him in such a straightforward manner, Leila felt sad and embarrassed. While his sharp eyes, staring straight at her face, seemed to be hiding something. “An unchaste woman dared to say that she is innocent in front of me, what a joke!”
