A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 301

After getting on the bus, Leila didn’t know where she was heading to. Then she arrived at the terminal station -- the golf course in the eastern suburbs. The driver called her, “Excuse me, Miss. We’ve arrived.”

It was not until then did Leila return to her senses and found that she had got on a bus unconsciously. She arrived at an unknown place along with the bus. The landscapes of the eastern suburbs were quite beautiful and there was a luxurious golf course. Leila got off the bus, sitting on the bench below the stop board, lost in her memories far back in the past.

Back then, she first met Mr. White, a sunshine young man. He was standing next to her sister, and her sister proudly announced to everyone that he was her boyfriend. Then in every evening, she would show off to her how nice, gentle, and considerate he was.

She must start admiring Mr. White in secret back then. However, it was her secret only and nobody knew about it. While she was thinking about it, her eyes suddenly became reddened, tears falling...

All of a sudden, there was a bottle of water appearing in front of her. She turned around and saw a blurred face with her tearful eyes, only to find that his eyes were ink-black and deep.

Without taking over the water bottle, she just said thanks to the person. However, the person didn’t leave. Leila wiped off her tears in a daze. Suddenly, she gaped and stood up immediately. “Mr., Mr. White?”

“What are you doing here?” Vincent asked in a deep voice.

He came over to play golf with his client. When he drove passing here, he saw her get off the bus. If it weren’t that it’s a rural place or she was wearing the dress that was picked by him in person, he wouldn’t take a look at an unknown woman. With a glance, he directly pulled over.

Then from afar, he could see her shedding tears as if she was in outer space and she was sitting blow the stop board. Then he took a bottle and got off the car.

“I took the wrong bus and went past the stop, so I arrived here,” Leila said in a low voice, looking down.

“What are you crying for?” Looking at her pitiful face, he couldn’t help frowning.

What could she answer? She had no guts to tell him the truth.

She looked up gingerly, seeing his good-looking face with delicate features, black hair, gray business casual suit, and white trousers. He stood in front of her casually, emanating the deadly attractiveness.

Leila said in a soft tone, “Because I went past the stop.”

Seemingly she had learned how to lie. She could easily find a reason to shed tears.

“Well, Mr. White, why are you here?”

His lips curled up. “You were crying because you went past the stop, weren’t you?”

Leila felt somewhat awkward and didn’t know what to say. She wanted to explain to him but couldn’t find the right words. She cried because she had met him and recalled his lonely youth, which was the same as hers. Hence, she could only twitch her mouth corners in embarrassment. “Yeah, I’m just so stupid.”

Vincent’s eyes became sharp immediately. Then he asked, “Have you had lunch yet?”

Leila hesitated, then shook her head.

Vincent frowned. Casting a glance of the golf course’s location, he pulled out the phone. “Hello, Arthur. I have something to deal with. Please accompany Monty and his team. I’ll not go in there.”

Then he hung up the phone and said to her, “I’ll send you home.”

“I can take the bus to go back. I know you’re quite busy.” Actually, she truly wanted to take the initiative and hugged him, telling him that she would accompany him from now on. No matter what threat she would receive, as long as he needed her, she could accompany him always.

“Let’s go.” He reached out to grab her hand.

She was taken aback, raising her head. He was staring at her, and seemingly something was suppressed in his eyes. He looked down at her with a sharp and cold gaze. When meeting his eyes, she just felt that the man in front of her had a trace of deep sorrow in his eyes.

He had done a good job to hide the sorrow, but she still discovered it when looking into his eyes.

They were standing so close to each other, but she felt that the distance between them was quite far. Near or far, she couldn’t tell.

Leila blinked, worry appearing in her eyes. She held his hand back gently and asked in a soft tone, “Mr. White, do you feel a pain in your heart?”

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and seemingly he didn’t understand why she asked such a question. At the same time, he had to admit that his heart feeling hurt so much. But it only happened occasionally, like just now.

He didn’t answer her, pulling her into the car.

Then he sat on the driver’s seat and passed a bottle of water to her. “Take some water. Your lips are so dry as a cat’s ass!”

Leila felt that she blushed instantly. A cat’s ass? How embarrassing!

Vincent tilted his head slightly and cast a glance at her. Seeing that she felt embarrassed, he curled up his lips. Then he concentrated on the road ahead. The car turned around and headed towards the direction where the villa of NT Mountain was.

Right then, Leila’s phone suddenly rang in her bag. Leila pulled it out, feeling puzzled. It was a call from an unknown number. She swiped to answer, and Vivienne’s voice was heard. “Hello, Lexi. Are you coming to the taekwondo gymnasium this afternoon?”

“Oh, I see. Vivienne, I’ll be there. See you in the afternoon!” Leila deliberately mentioned the caller’s name. She didn’t want to let Vincent know that she was learning taekwondo. It was because she wanted to deal with him, but now she felt a bit guilty and she was also afraid that he would get angry after knowing.

“Are you going out this afternoon?” Vincent raised his eyebrows. Looking at his watch, it was already three o’clock, and she wanted to go out. He had dumped his client to accompany her, but she would go out. Vincent couldn’t explain why he felt somewhat upset after she answered a call.

Putting away her phone, Leila nodded. She said, “I’ll join a workout team. I’ll spend two hours every afternoon for the workout.”
