A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 312

Leila felt embarrassed. Looking down, she heard Vincent scold her. “Stupid woman, you are so stupid!”

He stood next to her straightened. He saw that the crowd was gazing at them, his black eyes dazzling.

The onlookers sensed the coldness emanated from his body, which was from the deep of his bones. Seeing that Leila looked cowardly, he asked in a cold tone, “You enjoy being bullied, don’t you?”

Leila’s expression was stiffened. Knowing that he meant that she was too coward, she bit her lower lip and asked in a gentle tone, “Actually, she was just imbalanced in her heart. After all, she wanted to marry you truly, but just because--”

If that video clip didn’t exist and Macey didn’t hook up with other men... the position of Mr. White’s wife should belong to her sister.

“If I would see you agree to her requirements again, you can’t blame me for being rude to you,” Vincent interrupted her words impatiently. He looked down at her fearful look and cast a glance at the things in the shopping cart. Then he looked less annoyed. With a gentle tone, he said, “Hurry up and finish shopping. The driver is gone. I’ll drive you back home after you come out.”

“Okay.” She was in a daze and could only nod in agreement.

He had already gone far.

Vincent looked around and made sure there were no paparazzi. Then he strode away.

Leila stared at his receding straightened back dully. His strong back was straightened up, looking wide. Did he just come over to save her from the trouble? However, she wondered how he had known that she would encounter Macey.

Vincent had planned to stride farther, but suddenly she paused. In silence, he turned around and walked back.

Leila dared not to move a bit. She was standing motionlessly at the spot and looking at him. After a long while, he said in a deep voice, “I’ll be the only one who can bully you. You are my woman. I can treat you well or not well, but others cannot--”

Leila gaped at him, feeling weird. Although he said that because he cared about her, he used such a method. Mr. White was quite awkward.

After a moment of silence, Vincent coldly said in a uniquely evil way together with some combative feeling and hidden rage, “If you meet her again, just slap her across her face directly.”

Leila was taken aback. How dared she? It was her older sister!

Vincent came to pick up Leila to go home after finishing his business in the company. Unexpectedly, when he parked the car, he saw Macey and a man sneaked into the supermarket. Feeling uneasy and recalling what happened in the bar street last time, he also followed them in. Then he witnessed them making trouble to Leila.

What pissed him the most was that Leila just let Macey bully her without any resistance. Since when his woman could be tortured by others? In this world, he was the only one who could bully her. Nobody else could do that!

Leila wondered if she should feel honored or fortunate. Indeed, in this world, he was the only one that could make her endure without any rock bottom. She wouldn’t do that to anyone else.

Leila walked around the supermarket alone for a while. She received a call from her mother, and it was also because of Mr. White. “Leila, how come Vincent has a scandal again?”

“Mom, please don’t worry. Last night, Mr. White was with me. The news in the newspaper is untrue.”

In the circumstance last night, Vincent’s desire for her was so strong, and he didn’t look as if he came home after fooling around with another woman. Hence, she decided to trust him.

She could feel that he hadn’t touched any other woman in the past week, because he wanted her so badly last night. Perhaps, she shouldn’t overthink and make a wild guess, because he was a man who didn’t like to explain at all. The better he treated her, the more overbearing he was. At the thought of it, Leila felt that the bitterness in her heart finally faded away. With a happy smile, she said to her mother, “Mom, Mr. White treated me quite well. He also brought me a gift on his business trip. Please rest assured.”

After hanging up the phone, Leila picked up a few vegetables, fish, shrimps, and a chicken. Her slim face was full of happy smiles. She wanted to replenish the nutrition for his body.

After paying the bills and walking out of the supermarket, Leila took a few bags in her hands, full of ingredients. She looked around for Vincent’s car. When she was looking for it, she heard the honk. Then she saw the Bugatti was parked behind a car in front. She immediately walked over.

The trunk had been opened already. Leila put the bags in it, and then closed the trunk. The door next to the passenger seat was opened from the inside. Leila immediately trotted to sit in, appreciating him for being considerate. “Thank you, Mr. White.”

Vincent purled his lips.

“Don’t you need to work in the afternoon? It’s still another hour before you usually knock off.” Leila checked the time -- it was still half past four.

He frowned. “I’ve finished dealing everything.”

“How did you know I’m here,” Leila asked again.

“How did I know you were here? Don’t you think I came to pick you up deliberately,” Vincent said in a fierce tone. As if he had realized something, he looked more unnatural, and even a bit embarrassed. Gritting his teeth, he asked, “Why are you asking so many questions? You are way too talkative!”

Leila turned to glance at him and lowered her head immediately. She saw the slight blush on his face, and she suddenly understood something. He came to pick her up deliberately, and his words also disclosed it, but he refused to admit it. Indeed, for a man like Mr. White, he wouldn’t tell her that he came to pick up her intentionally.

However, Leila knew it clearly and felt quite happy. Although he sounded fierce, she didn’t care at all. She just smiled.

Vincent turned to cast a glance at her, seeing that she was smiling. He looked embarrassed. With a creak, the car roared away immediately.

Shortly, Vincent said again, “Why don’t you speak?”

Leila was surprised. She whispered, “Didn’t you ask me to shut up?”

He swallowed, frowning immediately. “Did I say that?”

“You said I’m way too talkative,” Leila answered while smiling, “So I’d better keep silent.”

“Silly girl!” He snorted, curling up his lips to show how good his mood was.

As soon as he recalled that he had met Julian this afternoon, he couldn’t help getting angry. “From now on, don’t meet Julian Gordon again.”
