A Moment in Destiny

Neither of them spoke. Silence blanked the living room. Vincent cast an indifferent glance at Leila, who was standing with her back to him, her pretty back looking quite hot. He strode to her back and asked her while raising his eyebrows, “You’ve been dragging your face for half an hour. Haven’t you got ready yet?”

Leila couldn’t help but blush slightly. She looked down and her eyes were covered under the shadow of her long eyelashes. “Are, are you waiting for me?”

“Bull crap! Who else am I waiting for?” Vincent reached out and cast a glance at her. When he saw the bruised kissing marks on her neck, he slightly frowned while feeling quite satisfied. Reaching out to button up the top button of her blouse, he said in a slightly tender tone, “I’ll drive you to the university.”

Leila couldn’t reject because he was giving a command.

When they went downstairs, he held her hand, her heart hammering. Suddenly, she felt that they were like a loving couple from an ordinary family -- so natural and sweet.

After sitting in the car, Vincent titled his body, reaching one hand to pinch her chin slightly. He said in a cold tone, “If Theodore Hall harasses you again, don’t forget to tell me. F you have the balls to hide it from me, you know the consequences. I hope you can try your best to speak less. You should know clearly how to be a good and obedient wife for me. Without my permission, you can’t be too intimate with other men. Understand?”

Leila’s heart skipped a bit. With dimmed eyes, she nodded. “Yes, I see.”

But she was still in a daze. When this man was gentle, his tenderness would drown her. Now he warned her out of no reason as if she did cheat on him.

With an arrogantly evil smile, Vincent gazed at her with his charming dark eyes, stressing each syllable as if he was sentencing her, “Leila Hunter, although we don’t love each other, from the day when you married me, I should be the only one for your body, your heart, your eyes, and your mind.”

Boom!

Leila was taken aback, wondering what he meant. She felt a bit disappointed. ‘Mr. White, why do you think we don’t love each other? At least, my heart...’ she thought to herself.

Upon hearing his words, she suddenly felt that he was too childish. She wondered if he had learned how to love someone. He could be so selfish in love, and she didn’t know what was on his mind.

His tender last night seemed like a transient joy for her. Now it had been gone completely.

With dark circles under her eyes, Leila went to the university. Vincent dropped her off at the entrance and then returned to his company.

When she passed by the newsstand, she saw the deadline in the entertainment section -- “Breaking news: Vincent White had a new girlfriend when coming back from Japan, dumping the illegitimate son and his mother.”

Leila was startled. Immediately, she bought one newspaper.

In the newspaper, there was a set of photos taken at the airport and in the HJ Hotel when he was holding Meredith in his arms. Leila recalled this woman -- when she was dancing with Callum that night, it was this woman who appeared together with Vincent. Her name was Meredith Baker.

Vincent was carrying her in his arms and Meredith nestled in it like a birdie.

The words below went like this --

Recently, the reporters happened to take photos of Mr. Vincent White, the CEO of White Group, and Meredith Baker, a car model, coming back from abroad together. They were holding hands intimately and went to the HJ Hotel together in a car...
