A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 336

Vincent pondered for a while and stopped talking about the matter but there was something flashing in his eyes.

The helpers hired in the manor were all middle-aged people. One of the middle-aged women, Rosa dished out fresh goat milk. Reggie smiled and introduced, “This fresh goat milk is very nutritious!”

Leila was so surprised to see it as that was the first time she saw it.

“Leila, it's delicious, don't you dare to drink it?” Oscar’s pink face was showing expectation and looking at Leila, “It's really nice, look, I am so strong and beautiful! This is all because that I drink it every day.”

“Haha, alright! I'll try it!” Leila smiled and took a sip. It was fresh and containing a little gamey smell but it was covered by the umami. It seemed so delicious which attracted Leila to take a sip. Then, she licked the milky white foam on her lower lip using her small tongue.

Her contented expression looked very enjoyable. Vincent’s pupils constricted just as she finished tasting the goat milk and licking the goat milk that left on her lips. Holly Shit, she could make his desire awake with just an action! His eyes turned deep and Reggie’s sharp eyes didn't miss this scene. Reggie smiled in deep meaning.

“I am not lying to you, right?” Oscar acted like a young adult.

“Yes, it's really tasty!” Leila nodded.

“Oscar, bring Miss Leila to see the room that we prepared for them!” Reggie took out a cigarette and handed it to Vincent. He also clipped one of it, lit it for Vincent and also himself.

“Go!” Vincent agreed too.

Oscar held Leila’s hands and led her to the second floor.

When they went up to the second floor, Reggie glanced at the disappearing figure on the stairs. He tilted his head and smiled. He looked at Vincent who was having a gentle emotion on his face and said, “Your life after marriage seems going well!”

“How do you define the word ‘well’?” Vincent raised his eyebrows. Then, he asked with a smile and resignation in his deep eyes, “You are the one who married twice but not even one of them are kept and with you now, what are you going to do?”

Reggie’s first wife, Lucille Mclean became a nun and his second wife was Lena Lloyd, the daughter of a senior official in G city. These two families united through marriage. Reggie’s second wife, Lena was pregnant with his child seven years ago. However, he only knew this fact after they got married. He was struck by shock and freaked out for a while. Other than that, both of them were having some misunderstanding and it caused Lena to file for a divorce. Reggie threatened her not to divorce with the custody of their child. However, nobody could predict that Lena just left him and even their son, ran away from home. Two months passed after she left but still she was not found until today.

“She is not found!” Reggie frowned, a tangled pain flashed in his eyes. “I am the one who should be blamed, she has the right to run away!”

“You're really a good man in this new era!” Vincent smiled in silent. He gloated, “But you deserve it! Your ex-wife had become a nun and you still go and meet her, how can Lena stand with it!”

“Don't laugh at me, you may not be going smoothly!” Reggie looked at his friend's gloating expression and said.

Vincent was still smiling but the expression in his eyes changed, giving a strong oppression inexplicably. “I am not going to be as you! I have always been handling well my love.”

“Every man will hesitate and become helpless when he makes mistakes!” Reggie was very sure about it.

“Aren't you ashamed of men? Such a joke!” Vincent yelled and kicked Reggie with his foot.

Reggie smiled but not saying anything, he took a violent puff of his cigarette. A dim smile slid across the azure blue eyes in an instant, a sense of sadness surged. “What do you think? Backbone and your son, which one is more important?”

Vincent was stunned for a while and snorted softly when he was asked by Reggie. “Don't ask me, I don't have a son and I also don't want to have one in my life. Backbone is the most important thing for me. How can we have no guts as a man?

Just catch Lena and get her done directly. Is it hard? You have a son now too, why can't you deal with your son's mother? You are so stupid!”

"Lena is the kind of person who will listen to me if I am having a good attitude but not being domineering!" Reggie shook his head, “Your strategy is only suitable for Leila. Also, only a little girl like Leila will follow your game rules!”

“That’s it, a man has to have a look like a man. I'll go upstairs and take a look of my room. No one has ever slept in my room, right?”

“I told you that I will leave a room for you. So only you have the right to live in the room. No one dares to move in your room, don't worry!”

“Thanks!”

Someone stepped up the wooden stairs and brought a loud noise.

The innermost room on the second floor.

“Miss Leila, is this beautiful?”

“It is so pretty, has Oscar lived here for a long time?”

“No, Daddy just picked me up here. I just lived, one, two, oh, I just stayed here for two months!” Oscar said and gestured with his little finger. But then his face changed and dimmed. “I haven't seen my mum for a long time!”

Leila’s heart was tightened and she feel sorry to see this little boy in such sad emotion. “Where's your mum?”

“Mummy doesn't want Oscar and Daddy!” Oscar seemed to be very sad but he raised his head quickly and spoke to Leila, “But Daddy said, mummy will definitely be found back!”

“Yes! She will be found back!” Leila looked at Oscar and felt sorry for this little boy. He was such a beautiful child who was a mixed race like his daddy. She had no idea what kind of woman was his mother but why did she take this uneasy decision to leave her child?

Standing in the room, Leila was greeted by a room with a unique decoration style. The furniture was solid wood, antique paint and the curtains were actually made of batik. It was a traditional batik style. The decoration style of Chinese and Western was shown here. It appeared to be harmonious and unified. However, the theme of the room was mostly affected by the color tone as it brought up the meaning of unify.

Leila opened the window. It was a beautiful green scenery, a large view of green, no high-rise buildings, no wires and no all those modern facilities. There are mountains and mountains, lush and green cyan landscape at first glance. It just felt like you are in nature with the tranquility of an ideal world. When the light breeze blew, one could wander in such an environment and her stress could be released and relax completely.

Oscar was laying on the windowsill and he spoke to Leila, “Miss Leila, please come over here to see the stars at night! The stars are so shiny and beautiful, this is the scenery that you will never see in the city!”

“Really?” Leila couldn't remember how many years she hadn't seen such beautiful stars.

“Miss Leila, my dad said this room is for you and Mr. White!”

“Ok! Thank you!”

“Miss Leila, you can rest first, feel free to come and find me when you need me!” Oscarhelped Leila to close the door. Just as the door was closed, it opened again.

Leila turned her head and she saw Vincent coming in.

“Do you like this place?” Vincent’s low voice had a lazy and sexy tone. His broad chest was placed behind her, his big hands put on her waist intimately, leading her to the window directly and it formed an ambiguous posture where he encircled her in his chest.

When he was talking, a strong breath from man was blowing in her sensitive ears. Leila’s body was trembled, she felt that her whole body was warming up and she nodded shyly. “Yes, I like it!”

“We will stay here tonight and go camping during the daytime tomorrow. There is a stream behind the castle, it is spring water in the mountain stream and there are small fishes in it!” Vincent said in her ear. Then, they enjoyed the greenery outside the window together.

“We go camping tomorrow?” Leila turned her head and his lips just brushed her face. Unexpectedly, she blushed.

His deep eyes looked into hers, his deep eyes were staring at her for a while. Leila’s mind went blanked for a moment. Then, she blinked her eyes and wanted to get out from his tough and warm embrace hurriedly.

“Why? You want to go now? I don't mind. But it is late night now and there are only two of us going to the quiet place...” Vincent smiled evilly and his ambiguous tone was just like whispering.

“You—don't do this—” Leila was a little nervous.

“What is the thing that you don’t want?” Vincent raised his eyebrow. “Otherwise, what do you think I brought you here for? It must be to relax both our body and mind! My dear wife!”

Her face was flushed. He did it purposely, having ambiguity in other people's house. He just wanted to see her in embarrassment. He called her wife, she didn't think he was serious and he must have bad ideas!

Vincent put his hand over her shoulder with his big hand and let her face him. He looked at her, his eyes became deep. “I put aside my heavy workload and accompany you to come here for relaxation, shouldn't you compensate me?”

“You came by yourself, I didn't want you to accompany me…” Leila avoided his sight in an instant, she leaned back and tried to stay away from the area that filled with his breath. She knew that camping with him would be dangerous.

“Why? Scared?” Vincent looked at Leila’s reaction with some amusement. He pulled her into his arms, “Let's take a rest. If you're not tired, we can go to process the lamb. We will have a green barbecue, we are going to roast the lamb with pine wood in the evening!”

“I'll help you!” Leila said quickly. In short, she would like to show up in crowded places, otherwise she was really scared.

The faint scent of soap on her body and the faint scent of jasmine on her fluffy hair made him take a breath from her before letting her go. “Let's go! The sun is about to fall!”

When they went down the mountain, Leila heard Oscar asking Reggie again, “Daddy, I miss mummy, where is mummy?”

“Baby, Daddy will find her back soon!” Reggie hugged his son, “I'm sorry, it’s daddy’s fault!”

“Daddy, you should speed up to find mummy!” Oscar looked at Reggie miserably. When he saw his dad’s worried look, he lowered his head sullenly and tried his best to pretend to be very miserable and pitiful, “Daddy, are you really not able to find mummy?”

Reggie looked at his son helplessly and nodded. “Daddy will find a detective to help us!”

“Alright, daddy, hurry up!”

Leila heard the conversation between the father and son with Vincent at the stairs and Vincent asked loudly, “Don't even have a call from her?”

Reggie shook his head.

“Mummy don't want Oscar!” Oscar said in sadness!

“That woman is really cruel!” Vincent had never seen a mother who abandoned her son.

Leila didn’t see Oscar when they was having a barbecue. When she was looking for him, she found that he was hiding behind a huge boulder and talking on the phone. “Mummy, my signal is not good, daddy's friends are here, there is a beautiful lady, when will you be back?”

Leila was taken aback for a moment. He was calling his mum?

“Well, daddy said that he will find you back, but he can't find you. Mummy, where are you hiding now? Really? Oh Oh Oh…So it's Annie who has hid you up. By the way, how is Iris? Yes, I miss her so much! Mummy, I miss you even more. Daddy knew that he was wrong. Can you come back? …Ah?! It is so long to go. Alright, Oscarmisses mummy every day and loves you so so much… Um… Okay… Don't worry, mum, daddy doesn't know that I have been calling you!”
