A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 230

Macey sneered. “Leila, Aunt Mabel. What an irony in the family. The younger sister seems to always like to steal the elder sister’s boyfriend!” Her words made Mabel’s face went pale at once. She bit her lip and did not utter a word. “Sis---” Leila instantly grabbed her mother’s hand when she saw her pale face and said, “Don’t be sad, mom!”

Macey snorted. “Is it him the one who wants to marry you or you’re the one who insist marrying him?”

“Did he really say he wants to marry you?” Brian asked abruptly. Seeing her father walking towards her with a gloomy face, Leila lowered her eyes and nodded docilely. Brian nodded with understanding. “If that’s the case, then marry him!”

“Dad?”

“Dad!”

Leila and Macey were both startled. Leila did not expect that her father would agree straight away as Vincent had used to be her elder sister’s lover after all! “For the sake of the Hunter family’s reputation, that’s the only way!” Brian seemed to have a lot of reluctance, but he did not say any of it.

Leila felt bitterer all of a sudden. She had only changed her surname to Hunter these few years for the sake of the Hunter family. She tried hard to raise her head, wanting to smile for herself, but poignant tears uncontrollably gathered at the corner of her eyes. She took a deep breath and still regained her calmness in the end. She then nodded silently.

At the City F church, sunlight had shined across the solemn church, but it did not manage to chase the cold and darkness away from the shadowed corner. The bride and the bridegroom were in the middle of a wedding while being watched by many pairs of eyes in the church.

Leila was wearing a white wedding gown and she looked more other-worldly beautiful under the sacred atmosphere. Her red lips were shiny and alluring, and her delicate body figure was gently clad in nicely tailored wedding gown. Her tender skin grasped everyone’s heart.

Vincent who was wearing a white suit was gripping her pale hand with an attractive smile. Yet it was not hard to realize when looking up close that there was no joy in his eyes, but a little contempt, as if he was planning some conspiracies, it was just that nobody could tell.

With her hand being gripped by the god beside her, Leila looked up and took a glimpse of Vincent. Blush appeared on her cheeks and there was more uneasiness in her eyes. That man was going to be her husband! And their marriage was not based on love from the start. The moment she looked at him, he suddenly stooped and spoke beside her ear, “Dear Leila, do you know that you’ve irritated me?”

She was startled, yet he kissed her lips in front of everyone out of the blue. Everyone was taken aback by his crazy action. Although not many people had come, and the wedding was not widely broadcast, there were still a few of her father’s friends who attended the wedding.

Macey saw it too and she wrinkled her eyebrows. If she had not made a blunder, the one who was standing there with the groom would be her. Yet she had not expected that Vincent would lay eyes on her silly little sister. She then let out a grim smile and her eyes were brimmed with envy and jealousy.

“Get your ass back home!” Brian lowered his voice and criticized her. “You useless thing!”

“Dad, aren’t you being too biased?” Macey snorted and she felt aggrieved. “What a disappointing daughter!” Brian snapped at her. “You’ve embarrassed me greatly!” Mabel quickly stopped him. “Brian, calm yourself down. Macey, enough of the talking too! It’s Leila’s wedding today, and it’s inappropriate to let Macey go home. Why don’t both of you just shut your mouth and control yourself? Everything we do is for the Hunter family!”

Leila drew a cold breath when Vincent finally released her. She was feeling embarrassed, and at the same time she sensed a deep horror. Vincent’s eyes were like hawk’s eyes. He fixed his eyes on her face as if he was looking at his prey. The masculine aura he possessed was conspicuous.

“Mr. White!” Leila exclaimed. His eyes were too imposing and his action made her mouth dry. She could only lower her head once more. Yet Vincent spoke again, “Darling, we’ve gotten married! How could you still call me Mr. White? Come, call me honey!” He sounded like he was flirting with her, but Leila knew he did not have that intention at all!

How would the man who had used to talk about marriage with her elder sister love her? It was her elder sister who betrayed him that he had become that scary. As she was afraid of him, her heart also ached for him. She wondered how long would it take to cure his broken heart. She lowered her head and bit her red and swollen lip which was kissed by Vincent just now. Her long and curvy eyelashes hid the panic in her eyes.
