A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 395

In fact, sometimes, Vincent could be a little playful. But for the past few years, many things had been suppressing his nature. It did not allow him to be himself and be like other men who could laugh freely!

Although there were a lot of problems between him and Leila currently, he knew himself well and he knew her well. He did not want to suppress himself anymore! He did not want to hide his interest.

The sound of flushing the toilet finally stopped, Leila was almost suffering.

There was no movement for quite some time, Leila had to ask. “Are you done yet?”

“Not yet! Another minute!” He said. “I’m afraid that if I want to go to the toilet and you don’t want to help me. It’s troublesome to untie the belt every time! Is it okay if I don’t wear it at all?”

“Vincent!” Leila growled. “I will go if you behave like this again!”

“Fine! I just buckle up my belt!” Vincent turned around and flushed the toilet. Then he gracefully walked back to the hospital bed with steady steps.

Leila almost lost her anger even with just his single word. She was hoping him to get better quickly so that she could tear his bones apart!

Vincent walked over with a laughing face, it was full of contentment. He felt at ease when she was around even without doing anything. His worries and anxiety at work for the past few days seemed to disappear. There always a peace of mind if Leila was beside him. Leila shook her head as she looked at Vincent’s happy face. She quickly moved over to hang up the infusion bag, “Hurry up and get some rest, it’s late now.”

“Lexi, can you sleep with me.” Vincent said in the deep tone. He quickly raised his hand towards the gaze from Leila. He solemnly promised, “I promise that I will only talk under the quilt and I am not doing anything else.”

“I’m helping you check on the needle! I can’t sleep!” As she looked at the way he was, Leila sat down by the bed. She looked at his eyes seriously. It was filled with traces of faint bloodshot. “You haven’t slept for a long time, there are some problems in the company, you should get some rest so that you have the strength to overcome it. You should sleep now!”

“Lexi, can’t you be a little more docile?” He gritted. Vincent’s eyes were full of resentment as he stared weakly at this little liar in frustration.

“Shut up! Sleep!” She said strictly.

Her concern did make him feel emotionally moved. Indeed, he was sleepy and tired, “After the injection is done, you can come up and sleep.”

Leila was startled, she was speechless.

The bed was too small, even if it was big, she was not sure if she had the chance to sleep with him again. She was feeling melancholy as her eyes slowly closed.

In the daze, she did not know when she fell asleep. Leila was laying on the side of his bed. She was completely asleep on the side of his bed, she was curled up because of the coldness and she was not covered with a quilt.

Vincent was awake, he woke up when the nurse came to give him the injection. It was 3 in the late night. Occasionally, he still had some coughs but he had to admit that the effect of the medicine was good and it was able to get it under control a little.

When he woke up, he carried her body onto the bed. Leila’s body became stiff and awakened suddenly without opening her eyes.

“Little liar, why do you have to divorce me?” Vincent covered her with a quilt, he gently grabbed her waist with his hand. There was a deep emotions in the weak sigh.

The corner of her eyes suddenly turned wet, this feeling reminded Leila of those happy days that she had with him.

The bed was too small and both slept closely with each other. Vincent hugged her without saying anything again as if he hadn’t noticed that she was awake. After a while, there was a sound of steady breathing.

Leila’s body slowly relaxed and her eyes were still closed. Leila fell asleep again in his warm hug. The moment he hugged her into his arms, her stiff body made Vincent understand that she was awake.

After more than ten minutes, he turned his gaze and realized that there was no sense of rejection. As Vincent was looking at Leila sleeping quietly in his arms, he secretly smiled a little and slowly turned into a bigger smile which was a little silly. The sound of steady breathing was made by Vincent to make her think that he did not know that she was waking up and did it purposely.

He lowered his head kissed gently on Leila’s cheek. He hugged her contentedly and closed his eyes and fell asleep together.

That night, there was a hidden corner in the hospital parking lot, an expensive red Ferrari was parked there.

"Mr. Lane, I found the address of Macey that you wanted!” There was a low voice coming out from the phone, but she might be leaving at dawn therefore I had to call you now.

The man who was sitting in the car was Arthur Lane, “Okay, tell me the address!”

On the other side, Arthur hung up the phone. He lit up a stick of cigarette. As the faint light of the lighter flashed by, it reflected his handsome face. While he was smoking, the smoke lingered around, it seemed depressing. How upsetting it was!

While the smoke was filling up in the car, Arthur grabbed the cigarette in one hand and looked at the window of the hospital building. Leila was with Vincent, he gently sighed! Vincent was her happiness! He lowered his head and start up the car. What he could do was to look at them from far only! Other than that, he could not do anything!

The car was driven out in the late night, the address of the place was found!

Macey, all that Arthur could do was to help Leila to find her sister back.

When he was struggling to get through the narrow roads into the tube-shaped apartments to look for Macey’s location, when he knocked of the door of a slum house in the middle of the night, he was thinking if he should bring Macey back to the Hunter family if he found her, right? But what happened back then, it was such a sad tragedy for a woman!

He knocked on the door for a few times, there seemed to be some movements but the door was not opened.
