A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 367 Bitter Self-Understanding

A hint of disappointment spread across Arthur’s face. As long as he could see Leila happy, he’d feel much more at ease.

After the meal, as Vincent took Leila and left, Arthur naturally sent Renee home.

Inside the car, Renee asked, “Arthur, do you like Leila?”

Arthur was caught by surprise, “Renee, you really know just what to say, don't you!”

“If you like her, you like her; if you don’t, then you don’t. What’s gonna possibly happen if you keep it a secret? Too bad for Leila. If she’s with you, she’d probably be much happier than with Vincent.” Renee noted the disappointment in Arthur’s eyes when he saw how Vincent and Leila were at the dining table.

“Marriage is like a pair of shoes; it may look good, but you only know if it fits you well when it’s on your feet. To outsiders, it might not look like a fit, but only those wearing it will know!” Arthur let out a smirk. “Got a smoke?”

“Go ahead and smoke. It’s your car!” Renee smiled. “You’re right; let’s hope Leila will be happy! Alright, handsome, drop me off at work, thanks! Great knowing you!”

“The pleasure’s mine!” Arthur’s eyebrows flicked and he smiled at her.

He parked the car in front of the city hall to let her out.

Arthur stepped out the car as well and stood by the sidewalk.

“Bye!” Renee was about to leave.

Suddenly, he called out to her, “Hey!”

Renee turned her head around, “What is it?”

“Could I trouble you for a favor?” He said with a smile.

Renee wrinkled her forehead, then walked over. “Let’s hear it. Don’t worry, big sis loves to help out!”

“Who’re you referring to as big sis, little girl!”

“Come now, out with it!”

“When I’m not around, if Leila meets any trouble she can’t handle, and I mean trouble which even Vincent can’t handle, give me a call, alright?”

“You must really love Leila!” Renee felt a bit moved.

Arthur smiled drily, but a glint of sorrow passed by his eyes. “I just want her to be happy!”

“Alright!” Renee nodded her head, and earnestly aid, “You’re a good man, Arthur; karma will be good to you. It’s too bad Leila didn’t pick you!”
