A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 411 Leila Hunter’s Counterattack

“Mum, why are you so thin? Mummy, you’re getting old! Your hair is turning white!” Leila called out in a low voice.

Mabel’s expression faltered as she shook her head and calmed Leila. “Mum is fine, that’s all Mum knows. Nora Morgan likes your father and your father was an attractive man! It’s normal that many people like him. He’s a lifelong fate for Mum and your aunt, a fate that can’t be escaped!”

“Mum!” She frowned, “How did you know that Nora liked my father?”

“Your father said so!” Mabel’s expression seemed a little unnatural. Leila was stunned and a little suspicious.

“Leila, Mr. Gordon doesn’t know anything either. They were just classmates back then!” Mabel saw Leila’s somewhat sceptical expression and said hurriedly, “You should know that it is Mr. White who isn’t taking straight. As Nora liked your father, Mr. White felt cuckolded and that’s why he get depressed! You shouldn’t ask Mr. Gordon again as they have such a good relationship. You ask people who are aged and they will get nostalgic and become sad!”

“Is that so?” Leila murmured and no one whether she was asking Mabel or asking herself.

Committing suicide just because he was cuckolded?

Could it be that Nora had something to do with my dad back then?

Therefore he couldn’t bear the blow. With his wife on one side and his best friend and partner on the other, he ended up choosing to take the dead-end! It seemed to make sense, but something wasn’t right. Committing suicide for someone else? Can this be the decision of a man in a high position of power?

Leila was silent, frowning in thought.

“Leila, I’ll go in and accompany your father now!” Mabel said carefully, “Don’t go to find Mr. Gordon again, he’ll be very embarrassed! Also, don’t tell Vincent about this, Mum doesn’t want him to know that his mum doesn’t love his dad! It must be a big shock to him!”

Leila was aware of the seriousness of the situation, but why did she feel that something was wrong?

But as she confronted her mother, she could only nod her head. “I understand, mum!”

“I’m going to look after your dad, what about you and Vincent?” Mabel’s head ached as she recalled yesterday’s press conference.

“Divorced!” Leila whispered, lowering her head. Being able to meet such a mother-in-law and such parents who obviously knew the truth but didn’t say anything, it would take a miracle for them to go on, Leila thought.

Obviously, her mother was keeping some secrets too!

After thinking about it for half a day, she decided to go and find Seth Jordon’s family secretly. She was sure that someone would know the truth.

“Mum, I’ll go now!” Leila picked up her satchel and headed for the Southern Suburbs of F City.

She asked around many places once she entered the Southern Suburbs, looking for Seth’s family. But the news she got was that he had a son who had previously been at home, but had mysteriously disappeared a few months ago!
