A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 428 Single Man and Woman

“Arthur?” Leila lifted her head and barely made out the figure of Arthur. As if broken free from her sorrow, she burst into tears and rushed into his arms.

“Alright, it’s fine now.” This was the second time a woman was sobbing in his arms. The first time was her as well, out on the streets.

Arthur let out a sigh; there was a look of powerlessness on his handsome face. He softly patted Leila’s trembling body, who was sobbing like a helpless child. Her weak side as she cried made him want to hug her in his arms and tell her, “Leila, I’ve always liked you a lot!”

But the words just wouldn’t come out.

As she sobbed, she grabbed onto Arthur; all her emotions came pouring out uncontrollably. Gradually, her cries dwindled.

“Leila?” Arthur called her name in confusion; then he noticed that she had already fallen asleep. Her eyes were red from all the sorrow and pain she had held in.

Though her eyes were shut, she still sniffled from time to time. Arthur shook his head and carried her thin, small body toward his car in the parking lot. He placed her in the backseat and began to drive her home.

“Renee, time to eat!” Miyamoto knocked at the door, but only silence greeted him.

He opened the door and headed in; the person in bed seemed still sound asleep. Her messy hair covered over her face; through small cracks in the hair, he could see a row of thin arched eyelashes shut tightly in place. The snow white face was slightly rosy red, with a look of satisfaction as the person slept serenely.

“Renee, time to get up.” Miyamoto called out to her again; he didn’t notice that her slight smile already all managed to erase his frustrations from the afternoon.

As though she heard him, her lips pursed, and her body twitched a bit. She held her pillow even tighter, and continued to sleep.

Miyamoto shook his head helplessly; he walked to the bedside and removed her pillow. She was an adult already, yet still behaved like a child. Even Owen didn’t hug anything in his sleep!

With nothing left to grab, Renee’s hands randomly grabbed onto Miyamoto’s hand, and her lips muttered, “Don’t run, I’ve got you now.”

Miyamoto froze still when her hands held his, since she brought his hand directly to her chest. The softness of her chest suddenly made him start to get turned on!

In his awkward situation, Miyamoto looked to Renee’s face. She was still asleep, so it wasn’t her trying to flirt with him. Maybe it was because she was still muttering, there was still a hint of drool on the corner of her mouth.

Miyamoto pulled his hand away; he didn’t want to take advantage of her, especially in her sleep.

The second he yanked his hand away, Renee frowned.
