A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 304 Family of Three

“Mom, Mr. White said it’s not his son. I trust him,” Leila said so firmly, but she still wondered if she should trust him.

“He said that to you, didn’t he?”

“Yes.” Leila nodded. Looking up, she found Theodore’s car was going out from the entrance. She became nervous immediately. “Mom, I’ve got something to do. Got to go. Please don’t worry.”

As she spoke, she hung up the phone. She turned around and wanted to hide behind the stop board, but Theodore’s car had been pulled over. He also pressed down the window.

“Leila, where are you going? I can give you a ride.”

“No, thanks, Professor Hall.” Leila could only turn back. Then she saw the bus was approaching from afar. “The bus is arriving. See you, Professor Hall.”

“Oh!” Theodore looked back and saw the bus, a hint of helplessness flashing through his eyes. He didn’t insist. “All right. Be safe on the way. See you.”

“Bye!” Leila didn’t expect that he would agree so easily. Without overthinking, she got on the bus.

The bus stopped in the busy downtown area. Leila was thinking of buying the Armani jacket. She didn’t know how much it cost yet, and for a moment, she didn’t know how she could compensate it to Arthur.

She was wandering in the mall. Then she was in front of Pippa’s store. A saleswoman was standing there. She asked Leila with a smile, “Good day, Miss. Do you need anything?”

Leila was a bit surprised. She nodded. Then she looked around and asked, “By the way, isn’t your boss here today?”

“Oh, our boss? She went to Japan for a vacation. Miss, do you know her?”

“She went to Japan for a vacation?” Leila was taken aback, her whole body stiffened.

Mr. White went to Japan, didn’t he? The entertainment news said that the family of three boarded the plane. Leila wondered if Pippa truly had gone to Japan with Mr. White. What on earth was the relationship between them?

Leila was in a daze, turning around to leave.

“Miss, our boss will come back in a week. You can come to find her then.” The saleswoman was quite friendly.

“Oh, I see. Okay. Thank you!” Leila nodded, looking quite awkward.

After walking out of the shopping mall, Leila suddenly lost her confidence. She felt like a ghost without a soul, wandering around on the busy streets while feeling so empty in her heart.

She didn’t want to go home, because she would be alone after going home. Seemingly she was always alone from the beginning.

Pippa also went to Japan for a vacation, didn’t she?

A family of three?
