A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 366

"You guys ––" Leila really didn't expect to joke about such things. While Arthur and Renee had only just met, they actually tacitly teased her like this. They were so hateful!

Renee blinked at Vincent, as if her teasing interest was piqued. "President White ––"

"It seems that you need a man who serves you like this. Since Arthur and you have such a tacit understanding, how about I book a suite for you at the HJ Hotel and let you two try it out?" Vincent immediately interrupted Renee's words and reversed his stand instantly.

Leila felt Vincent's large hand tighten around her small hand, and his hand was warm.

"Vincent, I didn't expect you to be so evil!" Renee wasn't angry, but simply said to Arthur, "Arthur, he's attacking us and saying we have a special hobby!"

"A clean hand wants no washing!" Arthur said with a smile.

"You guys eat, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first!" Julian suddenly stood up, his countenance fell, and he wanted to leave.

"Huh? Where are you going?" Renee frowned and stopped laughing.

"I suddenly remembered I still have a manuscript to write, so I'm going to catch up now!" Julian's expression was not quite natural. In the face of their frank talk about those special people, his psyche couldn't help but feel guilty and uncomfortable. So, he couldn't stay any longer and was in a hurry to leave.

"Even if you're in a hurry, you should have your meal before you leave!" Renee saw that something was wrong with his expression.

"That's right, Julian!" Leila concurred with Renee. "No matter how urgent the matter is, you should eat, right?"

"I really have something to do!" Julian gave them a perfunctory smile, turned around and left.

He had his hands down at his side with the sleeves pulled up. While in the position of the button, there was only a thread and the button was missing. Leila fell into a trance, her heart instantly surging, and she jerked to her feet. "Mr. White, I have something to talk to Julian. I'll be right back!"

Leila chased after Julian, "Julian! Julian, wait!"

Julian, who had reached the door, stood still and looked back at Leila. "Something wrong?"

Leila looked at him, looking into his eyes until she looked into the deepest part of his eyes.

When facing such a look from Leila, Julian averted his eyes faintly. "What's wrong? Leila?"

Leila had almost concluded in her mind that the kidnapper was Julian, because his button was exactly the same as the one of the kidnapper. But what exactly did he want to kidnap her for? Was it just because he wanted her to divorce Vincent? Besides, he was about the same height as the man that night. Leila calmed her mind and said, "Well, here's the thing, I was kidnapped a few days ago!"

Upon hearing this, Julian's eyes struck a faint note, and then asked hurriedly in surprise, "When did this happen? Are you alright?"

Leila looked at Julian quietly. After gazing at him for a long time, she still couldn't speculate about his purpose; however, there was no way that button could be such a coincidence, right? But he was so well disguised that he didn't show a single crack. Was her suspicion wrong, or was his mental quality really too good?

"Leila?" Julian called out to Leila with a faint smile, gazing at her warmly.

She surveyed Julian in front of her steadily, and after making sure that his eyes had no expression other than surprise, then she breathed a sigh of relief and said leisurely, "It was not long ago."

With a tone that was unhurried and not overly panicked, Julian frowned and said, "Did you find out who it was?"

Leila smiled faintly. "Well, the evidence has been found, and all that's left is to hand it over to the cops!"

Upon hearing these words, Julian's body trembled slightly, and this imperceptible change was caught by Leila. "I just don't understand why that man kidnapped me just to get me to divorce Mr. White? This is what I can't figure out...Could that man have been bribed? Could it be that the woman who likes Mr. White bribed that man?"

Leila speculated, meanwhile gauging Julian's demeanor.

Julian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, feeling that Leila seemed to have changed a bit, she was no longer like the good and meek little girl she used to be. Her expression was indifferent and her calmness made Julian even have a moment of consternation. He asked tentatively, "What do you plan to do? Do you have evidence?"

"Yes! Something fell off that man, and I've picked it up!" Leila was still staring at Julian's eyes without blinking. Her eyes were so sharp that no one seemed to be able to hide anything.

Julian was slightly stunned, something flashed across his eyes, so quickly, so fleetingly. "Is that so? Then you have to hand it over to the cops! Let the cops investigate!"

Leila smiled gently. "I'm just afraid that after I hand it over to the cops, that man's life will be ruined. After all, he didn't really hurt me, so I think it's better to spare him!"

"Leila, you're really kind!" Julian sighed softly, and the Leila in front of him had really changed. She had become mature and sophisticated, and in her deep gaze there was a light that even he couldn't see through. "Call the police! It's the best for you, I have to go!"

Leila lifted the corners of her lips, her gaze falling on his wrist with a soft smile. "Julian, your button fell off!"

After these words, Leila's gaze quickly moved back to his face, and her calm gaze turned sharp in a flash, seemingly with scrutiny in her indifference.

Julian was slightly panicked and lowered his head to look at the button on himself. After seeing that a button had fallen off his shirt sleeve, he was immediately alerted, but smiled faintly and said, "I don't even know when it fell off!"

"I have a button that looks just like the button on your shirt, and I'll bring it to you someday!" Laila chuckled, her eyes looking straight into the bottom of his eyes.

"Really? You have the same button as mine?" Julian raised his eyebrows.

"Yes!" Leila observed him carefully for a while longer, then smiled, not revealing her true thoughts. "Julian, you're acting very calm!"

"What do you mean?"
