A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 973

Rae didn't answer, she wanted to break free from him, Reuben spoke with his deep voice, “Let me hug you for a moment. Just for a moment.”

Perhaps because he sounded like he was imploring, perhaps Rae sympathize him too much, she stopped struggling in the end.

But at that time, someone was walking out the hotel's lobby entrance. A big and tall man whose face looked cold, with handsome facial features, and firm expression... He was originally walking forward with a slightly cold and expressionless face, he didn't expect that he would see Rae and Reuben standing there when he just got out of the hotel, Marcel's expression turned very cold when he saw them.

Reuben finally let Rae go after tightly hugging her, Rae lifted her head from Reuben's embrace and unexpectedly met Marcel's cold gaze, he just stood not far away from them as he coldly stared at Rae, she felt that Marcel's gaze was blazing, staring at Rae tightly with a slight disdain like he was saying, 'See, I knew you're such a woman.'

Rae's stiff expression made him realize and turn his head, right when Reuben saw Marcel, Reuben's eyes slightly glistened.

Marcel just looked at them for a moment, then he just walked straight to the parking lot without saying anything.

Rae watched as Marcel left coldly, she clearly knew that it would end in such a way but she still felt very sad like her heart was clenched and she couldn't breathe.

However, looking at Marcel's leaving back figure, her eyes were lifeless and meaningless.

Such a feeling continued for only half a minute, Rae soon forced herself to be strong and face everything.

She lifted her head and met Reuben’s gaze, who was looking down at her, Rae was slightly stunned before she spoke to him, “I should leave.”

Reuben immediately stopped her, “You just asked half of it, don't you want to know more?”

Rae shook her head, “I want to know, but you have no intention of telling me... I think this will be a waste of time, besides, I must go back to our office and work!”

Reuben's gaze locked Rae's eyes as he said, “I only know a bit either, tell me, you betrayed me, I was young back then and I didn't understand how to conceal my feelings, I just blurted "break up" out of anger! So I am still really unsure whether that person is there or not, perhaps it is a misunderstanding!”

Hearing that, Rae felt that Reuben's words were real this time, she looked at him, her eyes became compassionate again as she slightly nodded, “I get it, I really should leave now!”

“I'll send you there!” Reuben said.

“No need!” Rae refused.

“Why?” then Reuben said, “Don't tell me that you're still scared Marcel will find out?”

Rae was stunned before she laughed at herself, “All right then, just send me!”

She was coincidentally rushing for time.

Thus, she went to the parking lot with Reuben, she stopped for a moment when she saw Reuben's car was a Rolls-Royce Phantom at that time, she almost instinctively asked, “Is that your car?”

Reuben shook his head, “No, my car is in maintenance, this car had been left unused for years, it used to be my father's!”

Something flashed quickly through Rae’s kind but she didn't dare to believe it, perhaps it was just her random thoughts, but not everyone could have a car like Rolls-Royce Phantom, she suddenly saw the car and became alert.

She turned her head and looked at Reuben who was driving.

Perhaps because Rae's gaze was too intense, it made Reuben couldn't help doubting, he then turned his head and looked at Rae, “What's wrong?”

Rae opened her eyes widely and looked at him, that pair of big eyes looked glistening, watery, and very attractive because she was too focused.

Reuben admitted that he was attracted!

He slightly leaned in, wanting to kiss Rae... Rae suddenly snapped out of it and asked, “How old is your father's car?”

That one sentence interrupted Reuben's dreamy thoughts, in an instant, Reuben's mood died down, he was a bit speechless... Seeing Rae's eager expression, he couldn't help asking her back, “Why are you suddenly interested in the car?”

“Just asking!” Rae immediately explained, afraid that Reuben would doubt something, “I just felt so curious when I suddenly saw a Rolls-Royce Phantom!”

“Are you interested in Rolls-Royce Phantom or my father's car?” Reuben couldn't help asking.

Rae was stunned, she asked him back, “Why do you ask that?”

Reuben just felt that Rae had a certain intention by asking that, but Rae didn't admit it, he looked at Rae, “Isn't that so?”

Rae immediately turned stern, “Then if I'm very interested in your father's car, will you tell me?!”

“This was bought 7 years ago!” Reuben directly said that.

That car was 7 years old!

In an instant, Rae felt at a loss, startled, and even speechless.

Her momentary absent mind made her seem like she was in a daze to Reuben, he couldn't help asking, “What actually happened?”

“Nothing, just send me back!” Rae just said that, leaned back on the seat, and looked outside the car window without saying anything.

After the car arrived to the office, Rae went down the car and walked away without even looking back... Reuben looked at Rae's figure form the back and frowned, he then took his phone and spoke to it, “I've told you to investigate Rae's life activity 7 years ago, how's it going?”

A voice came out form the other end, “Mr. James, I have investigated it, the situation is very bad!”
