A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 946

Rae came downstairs and saw Reuben. Reuben also saw Rae, then he bent down to the passenger seat to get something. He showed up and Rae saw a bouquet of fiery red roses! It was a very large bouquet of roses, about a hundred stems, and there should be like ninety-nine of them!

Rae was so stunned that she stopped. Reuben sent her such an exaggerated bouquet of roses. Did he want to embarrass her in the police bureau?

Now, the whole police station knew that she had become Marcel’s girlfriend in the morning, and then received roses from Reuben, the son of YS Club owner, at noon. She was afraid that the rumors would be spread maliciously. Rae took a deep breath and didn’t move.

When Reuben saw her standing still, he walked towards Rae.

The bouquet of fiery red roses in his hand brought a faint fragrance, but Rae frowned.

Reuben walked up to her. He smiled and handed her the bouquet.

Rae didn’t take it. “Mr. James, there’s no need for you to do such a childish thing!”

“Heh-heh, Rae. I know you’re an economically rational person and don’t want me to waste my money, but that’s not necessary. Men earn money just for women to spend!” Reuben forcefully shoved the flowers into Rae’s hands.

Rae was stunned. Reuben let go of his hands, and Rae had to hold the bouquet.

Meanwhile, what Marcel saw from upstairs was that Rae had taken the roses. Marcel’s eyes were filled with anger. He clenched his fists, and the veins on the back of his hands were exposed.

But he didn’t do anything. He just saw Rae holding the bouquet and got into Reuben’s car.

As soon as Rae got into the car, she threw the flowers on the back seat of his car. Then, she told him solemnly, “Since you have informers in our department, I’ll tell you, we can’t be together! I don’t remember what happened before, I can take control of my future life, we’re just not destined to be together! So, please don’t mention the engagement again, okay? You dare to mention it, I’m really embarrassed to admit it!”

“Ugh! Rae,” As soon as Reuben heard what she said, he was reluctant and said directly, “You do have an engagement with me, which was set by your dad and my dad together. Now, you can abandon our engagement and fall in love with another man, then why do I need to be embarrassed to mention it? Besides, our relationship is completely above board. The relationship between you and Marcel is a sordid act. In ancient times, you would be considered cheating, and Marcel was considered adultery!”

Rae frowned when she heard this, “I don’t want to talk to you. I’ll let my dad talk to your dad. By the way, I came out today to talk to you clearly! Reuben, you’re being deliberately messing around, really makes me suspect that you’re approaching me with a purpose!”

“What do you think I have in mind for you with the way you are now?”

“I don’t know!” Rae said matter-of-factly.

Reuben slightly laughed, “Of course you don’t know anything. I’ll now take you to where we’ve been before! Then, we’ll go to have lunch!”

After saying that, Reuben stopped talking. He drove straight to the suburbs. Rae didn’t know where he was taking her until they arrived at a villa in the suburbs. It was surrounded by colorful flowers and there were red maple leaves all over the mountains. She couldn’t help but praise the beauty of the place!

Reuben drove into a villa, and then he drove directly into the garage under the villa.

Rae was stunned but she remained calm in her heart.

Reuben didn’t say anything either. He got out of the car, then opened the car door for Rae.

Rae got down and asked him with a frown, “What is this place?”

Reuben didn’t answer. He just locked the car, and then said to Rae, “Come up first, see if you can remember anything!”

Rae was even more confused as to what this place was and why Reuben had brought her here!

She followed Reuben out of the garage and walked towards the door of the villa. Just when she reached the door, she saw the door being opened from the inside, and a woman of about fifty years old was standing there. She smiled and looked at Rae. The way she looked at her was warm and benevolent.

“Miss Baxter, I haven’t seen you in years, and you’re still so pretty!” The woman said. Her tone was gentle that it was hard to feel offended and even made her feel friendly. Maybe it was because of her warm smile. She smiled at Rae, then looked at Reuben, “Sir, the meal is ready!”

“Okay!” Reuben nodded. When he saw Rae was stunned, he explained, “This is Flora, she has always taken care of me. Seven years ago, she also took care of you! Have you forgotten her?”

In Rae’s mind, it wasn’t that she had forgotten Flora, it was that she didn’t have Flora in her mind! Even if she thought deeply, she couldn't recall her useless memories!

However, Rae was curious. Perhaps, she could investigate Rae’s past from here, and she might be able to find out the cause of her death. She wouldn't have been Rae for five years in vain.

Flora looked at Rae and smiled, “Miss Baxter, sir has told me that you’ve forgotten your past! I feel bad for you. I was wondered why you hadn’t visited me all these years, but it turns out you lost your memory after a car accident! It doesn’t matter, as long as you’re still alive!”

“Flora, there’s plenty of time to talk later. You go on with your work, I’ll show Rae around!” Reuben said.

Rae could only smile at Flora as she didn’t know what to say. She didn’t want to hurt an elder who smiled sincerely at her.

Flora hurriedly said, “Okay, I’ll carry on with my work. When you are done eating, leave your plates on the table and I will clean up!”

Then, Flora left.

This villa was large and spacious.

When Rae walked in, she saw the design of the house was fashionable, modern, and simplicity. The sofa was amazingly huge and brightly colored. The design made people feel stylish, youthful, and full of vigor! The window screens were printed with roses. The tablecloth and the furniture were all in girlish style!
