A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 337 Bonfire Under the Stars

Not knowing whether she should cry or laugh, Leila watched the kid crouch behind the boulder and call his mother in secret. He was clever. It turned out that they had kept in touch with each other without telling Reggie. Mind-blowing.

As Oscar silently hung up the phone, he turned off the phone and put it back in the pocket. He turned around and suddenly saw Leila. All of sudden, he opened his mouth. “Leila, you eavesdrop on Oscar talking!”

“I don’t do it on purpose!” Leila laughed a little and walked to him. She squatted down to gaze on him directly. “I’m wrong, but I’m not doing it on purpose!”

Oscar thought a little and nodded like a gentleman. “I forgive you but you should keep it as a secret. You shouldn’t let my father know about this!”

“Why?”

“Because Mummy doesn’t want Daddy to know!”

“But your Daddy is feeling anxious!”

“Mummy said that it has to wait until my Daddy feels really really really anxious then she will come back, otherwise she will still lose her face and have no rights in the family if she comes back now!”

Leila was surprised. A sense of helplessness passed by her soft and gentle face. It turned out that the child was helping his mother and father. She nodded and promised sincerely, “Okay, I will not say a single word!”

“I believe in you!” Oscar smiled a little.

“Leila, Oscar! Where are you? Come over and help!”

The dining table was set up by Leila and Rosa. The tablecloth was placed on a wooden round table. The fresh air was blended with the fresh and tempting smell of the food.

As she turned around, through the faint light of the fire, Vincent’s tall figure made her sigh. God was so loving to him, he had such a handsome face and yet he was given such a tall figure.

Vincent turned around the grill frame on top of the charcoal that were made of pine wood and in the meanwhile, he kept applying spices to the mutton.

Reggie was smoking besides. While he was smoking, he kept commanding, “You have not applied the spices on this side. Yes, this side! That side too!”

Vincent suddenly became impatient, frowned and sprinkled a handful of salt, “Don’t keep telling me what to do. Perhaps, you can come over to grill and I will command you?”

“That’s alright. I have said nothing!” Reggie wiped his nose and smiled at Leila who was not far away. He said, “Leila, it’s better that you come and help. It’s not easy to get along with Vincent. How can you deal with him!”

Leila sighed. Yes, Vincent had a big temper. She smiled and walked over. When she saw that Vincent was showing an annoyed face while his forehead was full of sweats, she immediately knew why he was so angry. It was already close to the summer while they were having a barbecue. It was very hot and there was sweat on the forehead. She smiled gently and took out her handkerchief to wipe the sweats on his forehead. “Do you need my help?”

Vincent was stunned by her gentle action. He was about to be roasted to death, and it was very hot. He worked so hard to grill some meats for everyone to eat.

It was very depressing to be commanded to do this and that by Reggie who was not doing anything at all.
