A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 406

Vincent's face was gloomy, Pippa leaned against him like a little woman, smiling so happily, and beside him, Nora smiled even more triumphantly.

Vincent only said a few words. "Because Pippa is pregnant, I had to take responsibility for her, so I had to divorce Leila. Thank you for coming.I have made a mistake that any man in the world could make. I hope my wife Leila can understand. I can’t help myself! I also hope that Leila and I will remain friends after the divorce, I hope she can bless me and Pippa, as well as our child!"

His tone was stiff, his eyes were staring at a certain place, deep and quiet, as if there was a huge pain hidden. Leila looked at him, through the screen, she saw his eyes looking into the camera, and when he said when he was divorcing her—his throat jumped, seemingly unwilling and helpless, his teeth were clenched tightly, the bruises on his cheeks were exposed, and his expression was so stiff. Leila frowned, what was wrong with him?

Leila stared blankly at Vincent on the TV. The man who lingered with her late last night was now telling the citizens of F City that he was going to divorce her. Because he had a child with another woman!

And she, looking at him in the moment when he turned and left the press conference, seemed to have seen the sadness in his eyes!

"Leila-" Brian patted the bed with one hand, seeming a little worried and nervous.

Leila regained her senses abruptly. A layer of tears in her eyes, she was shocked, but she quickly suppressed the sadness. "Dad, don't worry, I'm fine, you should take care of yourself!"

Something flashed in Brian's eyes, he just grabbed Leila's hand, but couldn't speak, and drooled again in his anxiety.

"Dad, you don't have to speak, I know you worry about me, I'm really okay!" Leila smiled at him. "It's not a big deal. If the sky was falling down, there is a taller one standing against it. I'm not afraid!"

Leila wiped his saliva with a tissue, and Brian moved his lips. "Pen-"

Leila seemed to hear him say pen, a very clear word.

"Dad, do you want a pen? You want to write?"

Brian nodded.

Leila immediately got pen and paper. Brian trembled and wrote a few words, ‘Some things are not what they seem to be!’

Leila looked at the words, they were very crookedly but seemed to give her huge confidence, and she nodded. "Dad, did you want me to believe Vincent?"

Brian didn't nod or shake his head.

Later, Leila received another call from Nora. "Leila, Pippa has Vincent's child. I forgot to tell you. In Japan, Lan and Pippa had drunken sex. Now I will have someone send you the evidence!"

Leila was confused!

When she received the package from Nora, Vincent's lawyer also came and brought the divorce papers.

Leila looked at the divorce paper in the hands of Ted Parry at the door of the ward. The difference from last time was that this time, even the shares were gone, and he only took the divorce to her.

The lawyer seemed hesitant to speak.

Leila asked softly, "Did he entrust you to come?"

"Madam, the president seems to be reluctant to divorce, he, he only said to give you this, but I think his expression was very painful!" the lawyer explained.

Leila nodded, bit her lip, thinking, maybe he had something he couldn't speak about.

She held the envelope sent by Nora in her hand. What could it be? It looked like a photo, she wanted to take a look, "Wait a minute!"

She tore open the seal, it was really a photo. Leila pulled it out, her face was instantly pale, because she saw Vincent's face, but her eyes fixed on the photo behind that one. Her eyes were round, since it was Vincent and Pippa naked. Every picture was taken very clearly, especially Vincent's face.

Leila finally understood Nora's ambition at this moment, laughed at herself, and took the pen, "Okay, I’ll sign!"

After signing her name, Leila took a deep breath, and then said to the lawyer, "Tell him to take care of himself!"

The lawyer was taken aback, "Madam?"

"I'm no longer Madam!" Leila put the photo in the envelope and entered the ward.

Until the evening, Leila did not receive a call from Vincent.

He did not explain to her!

Renee immediately called Leila when she saw the news, and rushed to the hospital.

Mabel was even more shocked and worried.

"Mom, I'm okay. Renee and I will go out to have a chat. Take care of Dad and don't worry about me!" Leila said softly.

"How could this happen?" Renee was surprised when the two went downstairs. "That can't be right. When we were having dinner together yesterday, Vincent spoiled you so much, and when he was looking at you his eyes were so strong and hot, why did he suddenly hold a press conference today to say that he would get a divorce? No, it's not right!"

Leila did not speak, she looked into the distance, turned slightly, and was extremely silent. There were photos of Vincent and Pippa in her bag. She held the bag tightly with her hands and took a deep breath, just saying, "I want to go to KTV! "

"Okay! I'll go with you!" Renee said immediately.

As soon as the press conference was over, Arthur hurried back to Vincent's office, pushed his door open vigorously, and shouted. "Damn, what are you doing? Why did you get Pippa pregnant again? And then you divorced Leila! What the hell are you doing? And then you ask Leila to be friends with you. Some people can be friends after a divorce, some people can simply be enemies. You hurt her so much, you are her enemy, and you want to be her friend. You idiot!"

Vincent's head was buried in his arms, he was sitting on the executive chair, his entire face buried in his arms.

"Damn it! Tell me what's going on!" Arthur slapped the table, the papers on the table were so shaken that they almost fell, showing the strength of his punch.

Vincent raised his head, and Arthur's words that he was about to shout out blaming him suddenly got stuck in his mouth, and he couldn't say them, because he saw Vincent's red eyes, seeming to suppress the unquenchable vigorous feelings.

Vincent cried?

Arthur was in shock. He had known him for so many years, let alone crying, he hadn't even seen him fragile, he was always like a king, strong, confident, cold and arrogant, strategizing and controlling everything.

With the ultimate wisdom and leadership, a man so good and so tough would cry?

What happened today?
