A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 414

Vincent jerked his head up. “Wait!”

Arthur curled his lips, revealing a cunning smile, and a flash of despondency as he turned around. “Is there anything else?”

Vincent’s slender fingers which were holding the mouth stiffened. He said, “How is she now?”

“Just call her yourself!”

“Arthur!”

“I can hear you!” Arthur said with a smile.

“Something will happen the latest by tomorrow!” Vincent said slowly, showing a serious expression. “Is she good?”

“Not really good!” Arthur stared into Vincent’s eyes and asked him in a deep voice, “But it’s much better than expected! Are you so sure you can make her love you again?”

“She loves me!” Vincent’s said confidently.

“You’ve hurt her very deeply! You dumped her in front of all the people of F City and put her to shame, and are you so confident that you can still make her love you again?”

“I will love her more this time!” Vincent closed his eyes as if he felt pain. Yes. Would she forgive him?

Would she be angry and hurt as he suddenly dumped her without saying a word?

“Ugh, you really love her so much. Leila was crying sadly at first, then she stopped crying and sang a lot of songs. When she left, she comforted me and thanked me. When she thanked me, she said it was on behalf of her and Vincent together! My Chinese is not so good and don’t understand her words, you can figure it out yourself!” Arthur said before he walked out.

Vincent smiled sadly and felt relieved, hoping Leila would wait for him for one more day.

There was a banquet in HJ Hotel.

The banquet hall was decorated gorgeously, with pink balloons suspended in mid-air, and there was the smell of different perfumes. A row of waiters in tuxedos and maids in pink maid uniforms were at the side to serve the guests at any time with great grandeur. In the center of the hall, a pianist was invited to perform melodious music which was perfect for occasions like a banquet.

The sound of the piano was very melodious and the musical notes made people feel peaceful and calm.

In the luxurious banquet hall, many important people who were active in the political and business world came.

Leila followed Arthur enter the hall. She was invited by him this afternoon as he didn’t have a female companion. It was the engagement ceremony of Renee and Miyamoto tonight. Renee’s father was a leader who had been in the political world for many years, but now he had been desolated. Although most of the people who came were to have a good laugh at him, but also some were his true friends. At least he was considered an important man in F City, so of course many people would attend his daughter’s engagement ceremony!

As soon as Leila followed Arthur to enter the banquet hall, they attracted many people’s attention. The women wearing beautiful costumes looked fascinated when they saw Arthur who was handsome and elegant, while the men were undisguisedly looking at Leila’s delicate body. They knew that Leila was the second daughter of Brian Hunter and also Vincent’s former wife.

Leila was wearing the precious blue evening dress, showing off her charisma elegantly in just the right way.

The dress with an asymmetrical cutting revealed Leila’s skin which was as white as gelatin to be even more charming, and then with multiple layers of tulle, a wide belt inlaid with black pearl, and the neckline inlaid with a sparkling diamond delicately outlined her delicate plumpness beautifully.

This dress was given by Renee and she told Leila to wear the dress so that she won’t be ashamed, as Leila was her best friend. However, Leila was also afraid that she stole Renee’s thunder, but Renee said she didn’t care about that and she was willing to let Leila steal her thunder.

However, Leila’s dress had undoubtedly become another centre of attention of the ceremony tonight.

Renee who was the main focus tonight wore a purple bustier dress. Her skin was fair and thus wearing purple made her look noble and also very attractive. Miyamoto was wearing a decent suit, looking tall and noble. When they stood together, they looked match with each other. Leila thought that it would be quite good if they were really together.

When Miyamoto and Renee stood together, everyone in the hall was attracted by her.

Renee showed a beautiful sunny smile on her face. Although she looked a bit blank, she was still beautiful. Her crystal bright eyes, pink lips, and perfect skin which she always took good care of, made her look watery and transparent. Only her overly thin body was a pity.

Leila stood quietly in a corner. Her eyes kept looking at Renee, sincerely hoping that Renee would be happy.

Suddenly, there was a clamour at the entrance of the hall, Leila turned her head and saw a tall and black-suited man. It was Vincent who was entering the hall slowly with steady steps. At that moment, Leila’s heart throbbed for a moment and she felt pain.

When Vincent saw Leila, he looked gloomier. Damn, how could Arthur let Leila wear this kind of dress, showing her white skin to every people? He could not wait to approach her and take off his suit to put it on her.

“Mr. White, here you come!” Vincent’s acquaintances have come forward to greet him.

“Mr. White, your wife seems to have been taken over by your vice president.” Carson laughed loudly, provoking Vincent haughtily. He thought that Arthur wouldn’t be able to take him down.

He gloatingly thought that he could let Vincent deal with Arthur who threatened him.

It was Carson Palmer! Looking at the man in front of him, Vincent showed a gloomy face. He walked forward slowly. Wearing a straight handmade suit, he displayed a cold and arrogant aura. An icy, stern, and murderous chill emanated from his body.

“Carson, do you want to be the spectator while others fight and reap the spoils when both sides are exhausted? Unfortunately, you’ve found the wrong person.” Vincent said. His voice was thick and not loud but sounded like he was warning him. He curled his thin lips and looked at Carson from a high position, revealing his cold and arrogantly wild aura at the moment.

“Oh, is that so?” Carson laughed arrogantly. He walked backward to move away from Vincent. Humph, did he think he still can act so cocky? Carson glanced at Leila, then he turned and looked at Vincent, “I heard that Mr. White had knocked up a woman. I wonder if it’s true?”
