A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 419

“But we really aren’t related now!” She pouted and said, “We are divorced and I no longer belong to you, so I don’t have any obligation to be with you!”

“Leila!” Vincent shouted in a low voice and glared at Leila with a displeasure look that was shown by his tightly furrowed eyebrows.

“Hmm…” Leila found he was so cute that she then reached out to wrap her arms around his waist while burying her small face in his chest. “I’m teasing you!”

“What a bad girl! Do you miss me?” Vincent asked in a low and husky voice as his eyebrows stretched out.

Leila bit her lip and nodded as this topic really embarrassed her. “Mr. White, let’s not do this now as Renee is hospitalized and Pippa has been taken away by the police, how can we…”

Vincent’s eyes looked towards the building over there which was close to the Sea Hotel and Arthur lived nearby, thinking that he could come back in the evening to discuss the matter related to Pippa. “Let’s go to the apartment!”

Leila was stunned upon hearing this, her beautiful face was flushed red and her eyes were filled with astonishment. “Let’s go to the police station to visit Pippa first!”

As she was saying, the phone rang.

Vincent’s dark eyes looked serious, he snorted coldly before answering the phone, “Who is it?”

“Are you Mr. White? We are calling from F City Police Station Rose Road Branch, please come and record a statement as we need testimony!”

“It’s the police!” Vincent said as he hung up the phone. “It seems that we cannot rest tonight!”

Leila’s phone rang too and it was also from the police, who asked her to go to the police office to record a statement.

“Let’s go!” Vincent held her hand.

It was two o’clock late at night after they finished recording the statement at the police station.

Leila told the police what she had seen without hiding any truth from the facts.

Vincent, Leila, Arthur and Charles stood at the door when they left the police station. Arthur sighed, “It really exhausts me! I have been tossing and turning for almost six to seven hours !”

“I’m worried that Pippa is out of control!” Charles said in a deep voice.

“Ask Ted to bail her out and take her to the hospital!” Vincent called his lawyer and instructed him to the police station in the midnight.

“Vincent, I’m leaving, I’m quite worried about your mother as she is unusually quiet tonight…”

“I go and check it out!” Vincent spoke to Arthur in a deep voice. “You take Leila to the Sea Hotel and I’ll come afterwards.”

Arthur nodded his head. “Alright! Leila, go with me! I’m so sleepy! Is Renee alright?”

“Nothing serious, just need to take care of her body well!”

As Vincent was leaving, he held Leila’s hand and whispered in her ear, “I’ll be back soon! Don’t talk too much with Arthur!”

Leila was so helpless and embarrassed that Vincent then turned around and left in satisfaction.

In the car, Arthur glanced at Leila beside him. “So you two are good again?”

“Hum!” Leila nodded her head.

“That’s good!” Arthur turned his eyes to the road ahead.

Both of them then turned silent.

Leila didn’t say anything even though the atmosphere was a little awkward.

In such a dark night, Arthur’s clear eyes showed a hint of sadness.

After parking the car, Arthur said, “Let’s go to my place first! I have a surprise for you!”

“What kind of surprise?”

“We will find out when we go! You can go upstairs again when Vincent is back!”

“Tell me first about the surprise!” Leila looked at the time and it was already three o’clock in the midnight.

Leila’s phone suddenly rang and it was an unfamiliar number. Leila glanced at Arthur before she picked up the phone and gently said "hello".

“This is a new number.” The low male voice on the other end of the line startled her.

Leila obediently replied to him with an "oh" before the other end said, “Have you reached there? Go upstairs when you get there. I’ll be back soon, wait for me after taking a shower!”

Leila went speechless and her face was blushed as Vincent said such ambiguous words in front of Arthur, yet, she could only answer, “Got it!”

“Good girl!” The phone hung up.

The phone call made by Vincent made Leila’s originally calm heart fluttered. Even after she went into the elevator, she was still blushing.

Arthur could guess what was going on and he didn’t say much.

The elevator rose slowly and when it stopped, Leila couldn’t hold herself and asked. “Anyway what is the surprise? Can’t we see it tomorrow?”

“It’s better today, I think you’ll want to see it!” Arthur said in a mysterious manner.

Leila then shook her head helplessly as his words made her curious, “Is there really any surprise as you are so secretive?”
