A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 333

When his thin lips touched Leila’s, her lips clove to his as she was inexperienced. At this moment, a faint smile crept across Vincent’s face. With tender eyes, he gently kissed Leila's sweet and soft lips, and his cold heart was moved again.

Feeling hotness surging over her body, Leila looked at Vincent, who was frowning and forcibly suppressing his emotion, and her heart softened. She couldn't help but held his neck with her hands, staring at him with fascinating eyes. She whispered, “Vincent.”

When the passion receded, he released the essence in her body. The two embraced in the morning sun. The thought of him saying that he hadn’t been with other women after marriage make her feel delighted, a trace of smile forming on the corner of her mouth. She still cared about him, and suddenly she realized that maybe it was best not to insist on divorce!

“Honey, why are you giggling?” His lazy tone rang in her ears.

“No, I’m not.” Leila’s smile faded immediately and a slight blush was visible on her face, which was a trace of passion leaving on her face, with a trace of laziness, pureness and softness.

Vincent got up and walked to the bathroom. "Get up and take a shower, I'll go out and pick you up in an hour!" he said to Leila after the shower when he changed clothes and left.

"Where are you going?"

"I’m going to ask someone to check what was going on about the phone call last night. Pack your clothes, and I'll be back later!"

"Okay!" Leila nodded.

Vincent went directly to Julian's newspaper and called him at the entrance of the newspaper building. "Come down now!" he said.

Julian seemed a little surprised. "What are you looking for me?" asked him.

“Come down and I’ll talk to you. I'll wait for you in the cafe downstairs of your office!" With that, Vincent hung up the phone.

When Julian came down, Vincent was already sitting inside. Seeing him, Julian came over.

“You wouldn't come to me if you hadn't something to ask me. What's the matter?" Julian asked as he sat down opposite him, and looked up at Vincent, whose face was still the one that he was unable to take his mind off. He was more mature than when he was in school, but Julian had never been in his eyes.

A sorrow flashed past Julian's eyes.

"Julian, you are playing with fire!" Looking at Julian in front of him, Vincent said in a deep voice, "Why did you call Leila last night?"

Seemingly a little surprised, Julian stared at Vincent in a daze, raised his eyebrows, smiled serenely, and gazed into the depths of Vincent’s eyes. "I don't know what you mean? I met Leila yesterday and we spent some time in the drink shop for a while, but I didn't call her!"

With a sneer, Vincent picked up the coffee on the table, and took a sip, "It seems I really need to talk to your father!" he threatened.

Hearing that, Julian was taken aback and chuckled. “Do as you like. Anyway, I am not the one who called her. If you are willing to tell my father about that, then I will tell Leila what happened to the night five years ago!" retorted Vincent.

Vincent seemed to be taken aback for a while, and then he said with a smile, "Nothing happened that night!"

"But there is a picture, in which we are so intimate. Seniors won't be so forgetful, right?"

Vincent fixed his eyes at Julian. "That picture was an accident. Julian, are you threatening me?"

"If Leila knew about the picture, what would she think? If she knew that his love rival was a man, how would she feel?"

Vincent smiled softly, "If you did so, I will be firmly believed that it was you who called Leila last night. Do you want me to divorce Leila? Do you think I am the kind of person who would be easily threatened? And what kind of rivals are you? "

“I told you it wasn’t me. Believe or not, I'm going away. I have to finish the manuscripts. With a faint smile, Julian got up and he added, "If it wasn't for you who were joking and hitting on me back then, maybe I won’t be so obsessed with you!"

“Did you hit on you?” Vincent asked, raising his eyebrows.

Julian smiled leisurely again, and there was a hint of bitterness inside. "At least you took the initiative in that photo, didn't you?"

“Give you one last chance, if something like this still happens, your dad will definitely know about it!" Vincent said directly after taking a sip of coffee.

"Senior, go ahead and say it now so that I can be relieved from trouble of hiding it as a secret!" Julian said and strode away with a trace of complicated emotions showing between his delicate eyebrows. "If you said to my father, I will openly say in the newspaper that I love you!"

Vincent looked at his leaving back thoughtfully, wondering that if he made a mistake and if there was the other one who called last night.

As he pondered, Mabel called and she said at the other end, "Vincent, I heard that your mom is back. Me and your father plan to treat her to dinner."

"Well, she is back to Japan!" Vincent replied.

"Oh, how come she left in such a hurry?" Mabel was a little surprised as she asked.

"She left after the charity meeting that day. She was in poor health and went back to Japan to recuperate!"

"Oh! Oh! I should have called you earlier. Next time when your mother comes back, you must notify me so I can visit my in-laws in advance!"

"Mom, that's very nice of you!"

"Vincent, you and Leila..."

"We are going on vacation today for three days. Mom, don't worry, Leila and I are fine." Vincent's tone was calm, as if nothing really happened.

"Really?" Mabel let out her breath in a long sigh. "Okay, well, don't forget to eat spare ribs when you come back. I will cook delicious food for you, and tell your mom on my behalf and wish her a speedy recovery!

"Well, thank you mom. I will!"

After hanging up the phone, with a frown, Vincent was at a loss what to do, thinking that his marriage with Leila ended up like this, which was against his mother's wishes. If she knew that he did not intend to divorce Leila, would she be able to bear it?

Leila said in the morning that she had never betrayed him, but what about her lost virginity? Was it the accident that happened to her during the few days when he was absent, and was it the rupture caused by excessive exercise? Would it be like this?

He failed to investigate anything, which made him perplexed.

After sitting alone in the cafe for a while, Vincent walked out, got in the car, closed the door and took out the phone. "Manager Billy, how is it going about the thing I asked you to deal with?" he asked over the phone.

"Well, let the people from the investigative agency keep a close watch on Julian these days. You should know what to do. Let me know if they need any help. But I need to be updated about what happen to him every day. If it is out of their ability, I will find another agency. By the way, keep an eye on Macey."

After hanging up the phone, Vincent took a deep breath and leaned back in the chair.

Originally he wanted to avenge her and the Hunter family, but he found it was so easy for him to give up. He cared for her far more than he wanted to retaliate against her.

Backing to Pearl Community, Vincent was furious when he found Leila was not at home, He called her and said coldly, "Where are you?"

"I... Wait for me at home. I'll be back soon!" Leila whispered.

"Where are you?" The voice suddenly rose. "Who allowed you to go out alone?"

"I..." Leila was shocked and suddenly understood why he was so furious. "Are you afraid that I will be kidnapped by bad guys?"

"Where are you? I'll pick you up!" Vincent said in a deep voice. As he said, he had already grabbed the key, worrying that if she were kidnapped.

"I'm…"
