A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 338

“Hey! Brat, are you teaching me how to be a man?” Vincent stared at the serious-looking Oscar irritatingly.

“Yes!” Oscar nodded his head.

Reggie laughed too.

Leila was even more embarrassed.

“Doesn’t what I said make sense? Do you think I’m right, Leila?” Oscar reached out to shake Leila’s hand, “Leila, do you think I’m right?”

“Well, yes!” Leila could only nod her head.

“So you are now on his side?” Vincent frowned and glanced at Leila. There was a hint of chagrin in his low voice and he turned his eyes towards Reggie.

Reggie only smiled.

Vincent’s eyes then turned to the location of the kitchen and smiled suddenly. “Oscar, your daddy is simply being too much of a gentleman and that’s why your mummy left your daddy!”

“Is that so?” At the mention of his mummy, Oscar’s handsome face turned gloomy and his innocent soft tone made people want to care for him more. “Daddy, then you don’t have to be a gentleman next time!”

“Hum!” Reggie was relieved but he nodded in annoyance.

“So is Mummy coming back soon?” Oscar laughed crisply.

“Well, do you know why your mummy refused to come back?” Vincent seemed to have a trick.

“Why?” Oscar’s attention was drawn away.

Vincent looked unpredictable, and he then sat up straight and shouted, “Rosa, please fetch me the lamb whips, lamb balls, and kidneys that I have packed in the kitchen just now! I’ll roast them.”

“Oh! Okay, Mr. White!” Rosa immediately went to get them.

Reggie frowned.

“What is lamb whip?” Oscar frowned and asked uncomprehendingly.

“Well, you need to ask your daddy, but I can tell you that as long as you find a way to get your daddy to eat this, your mummy will come back soon!” Vincent talked to Oscar with a bad smile.

“Vin!” Reggie didn’t expect that Vincent tricked him like this to make him take the aphrodisiac to be stronger, “I won’t eat such thing!”

“Why, daddy? Don’t you want mummy back?” Oscar was even more puzzled.

Vincent puffed out a laugh and looked at Reggie whose face was dark, then he cut another piece of meat for Leila in a great mood, “Honey, eat the meat!”

Leila didn’t know what those things were but she didn’t dare to ask more about it as Reggie’s expression seemed a bit strange.

“Because Daddy can’t get used to eating that!”

“But Mummy will be back if you eat it!” Oscar said again before he suddenly asked Vincent, “Vincent, are these things fairy medicine? How come Mummy will come back if Daddy eats them?”

“Hum! Well, this…” Vincent smiled lightly and said in a profound manner, “They are indeed fairy medicine. Do you know why your daddy is not in a hurry to get your mummy back?”

“Vin!” Reggie had spoken up as if he was warning. “I’ll do it all myself from now on and never bother you again, okay? Don’t teach my boy a bad lesson!”

“Boys have to know it sooner or later! My dear, let me tell you that these things can cure your daddy’s adrenal hormone secretion, so that he can be more passionate about your mummy and after eating all these, he will miss your mummy more. If so, he will look for your mummy all over the world.”

“Is it so magical?” Oscar was shocked.

Leila instantly understood those things. Wasn’t that the organ from the lamb which was said to have an aphrodisiac effect? Was Vincent too good at pranking people?

Shaking his head, Reggie was somewhat helpless, and he poured a glass of wine for Leila.

“Thank you!”

“Daddy, can you eat this?” Oscar slid off the stool and went to Reggie’s side, shaking his arm. “I miss Mummy. I want to live with Daddy and Mummy!”

“Alright!” Reggie nodded his head and looked at Vincent again, saying in a deep voice, “Well, Vincent, you should eat some together later on since it’s such a good thing in order to strengthen your relationship with Leila!”

“Ugh!” Vincent was tricked and he suddenly burst out laughing in a very inexplicable way. “Sure, let’s have it together!”

The phone rang suddenly at the moment, Vincent frowned and took his phone. When he saw the number from Japan, his eyebrows knitted slightly and he answered the phone, “Mum, I’m out on holiday. Yes! With Leila!”

Leila’s heart jerked as it was her mother-in-law’s call.

“Got it, you just get yourself well, and I’ll do everything well!” Vincent said and stood up. “I don’t agree no matter how and she is innocent!”

Faintly, Leila still heard it even though Vincent had ducked to the side to talk on the phone, she still heard it and she was quite sure that the phone was talking about herself and the Hunter family.

Leila clasped her hands around her glass of wine and she was a little nervous followed by a trace of melancholy raised in her heart as her mother-in-law’s words echoing in her ears, ‘sooner or later she and Vincent will all get divorced.’ Bitterness spread through her heart, and Leila slowly lowered her head.

The wine was then treated like juice, and she drank it one sip after another, not knowing what she was drinking.

Reggie was looking at Leila, but he seemed to be thinking about something and did not stop Leila.

Vincent was on the phone and walked a long way away. The phone call actually went on for twenty minutes and finally, Vincent became impatient and said bluntly, “Mum, I will use another method, I will not divorce Leila! That’s all!”

There was no telling what was said on the other end of the phone call.

“Alright, that’s it, I’m in the mountains where the signal isn’t very good, just talk till here!” Vincent finished his words and hung up the phone, but his face turned dark.

When Vincent came back again, Leila had already drunk two large glasses of wine and was slightly dizzy, was she drunk? She wished she was drunk, then she wouldn't have to worry about anything!

Things were shaking in front of her eyes, and it was hard to see the dark mountains in the distance clearly. Leila shook her head, getting even more dizzy.

Reggie noticed that Vincent was seemed in an irritating mood after he answered a phone call, as if someone had owed him something.

“Leila may have had too much to drink!” Reggie told Vincent.

Vincent looked at Leila who was patted on the table and frowned slightly. “I’ll send her back to the room first!”

“I’m not going!” Leila shook her head and lifted her head that shook slightly. “I’m not drunk! I want to see the stars. I don't want to go back!”

Vincent pursed his lips without saying anything, then he went straight up, “Go back to the room and watch the stars!”

“I don’t want to, I won't be able to see it if I go back!” Leila hiccuped.

Vincent’s face turned colder, but she was fine just now. How much had she drunk? Without saying anything, he picked her up straight away and headed for the room.

“Ooh…” Leila wanted to throw up.

So uncomfortable! she can’t hold!

She quickly broke away from Vincent’s arm and ran to the side to vomit.

Vincent’s gaze was unusually calm as he looked at Leila. Was she drunk? Was it intentional, or was it unintentional?

After vomiting, her mind turned a bit clearer. Leila stood up, staggering.

Vincent held her up with one of his hands.

“Don’t help me!” Leila broke away from his hand. “I can walk myself!”

Despite what she had said, Vincent, his brows tightly knitted, pulled her over and dragged her up to the room on the second floor.

“I want to go out and watch the stars!” Leila’s slender eyebrows were slightly raised, yet, the corner of her red lips was pursed tightly and her face was filled with aggrievance, together with a drunk sense. Although she was not very sober, she was not really completely drunk either. Probably she just wanted to strengthen her courage and hide the worry and bitterness in her heart with her drunkenness, and she then acted coyly by shaking Vincent’s arm, “I want to watch the stars!”

With a faint sigh, Vincent took her in his arms and brought her to the window sill, “Look, you can see the stars from here!”

Inside Vincent’s warm and tight embrace, Leila quietly leaned on his chest and her ears were surrounded by the steady sound of his heartbeat, one after another, with an unspoken feeling fermenting in her heart.

The sky was dark and quiet outside the window, there were only a few not too bright street lights in the pasture. Except for those, the sky and the mountains were dark, and the sky of the night was like a curtain decorated with jewels where the stars shone brightly.

Leaning against his chest, Leila gradually got back her sanity, trying to open her eyes wide to look at the sky outside the window, her eyebrows knitted together and her little face was lifted in order to look for the brightest star. Suddenly, she released a low exclamation, “So many stars, is that the brightest one, Vincent? So cool and bright, Vincent must be the brightest one.”

Vincent’s heart trembled and his mind was in a mess.

His hand fiercely tightened which made Leila feel a strong force gripping her waist. No waiting for Leila to react, Vincent had already locked her in his embrace and his thin lips pressed onto her lips.

His kisses were fast and wild, his hot tongue fiercely prying open her soft lips, and with his usual dominance, his aggressive tongue darted into her mouth, ambiguously and lingeringly intertwining with her small tongue.

She tilted her neck back, yet, her dazed eyes met the painful and complex mixture of emotions in his eyes.

The glimmer of clear emotion that remained made Leila feel her heart being stabbed hard. How could he have such vulnerable eyes. For a moment, Leila’s heart softened as well. Vincent, do you also feel pain?

Lips against lips, their tongues were ambiguously entwined together. Vincent tightly wrapped his arms around Leila as if he could imprison her, never letting her leave him again and no one could take her away from him.

Boundless bitterness that intertwined their lips and tongues spread to all their limbs, Leila closed her eyes indifferently and tears inexplicably slipping down from the corners of her eyes.

Vincent kissed her lips even harder when his gentle lips wildly and gently kissed away the tears at the corners of her eyes. She was crying. She was not really drunk!

“Vincent, does your mother want you to divorce me?” Leila spoke softly with a low tone.

“Leila..." he called out to her in a low voice, wanting to say something but he was expressionless, the two of them embraced together and his forehead pressed against hers.

Leila’s heart was indescribably bitter, so it was about this matter that her mother-in-law came back last time, hastily announced their relationship with her, and asked Vincent to divorce her just to let everyone know that she couldn’t get rid of the fate of being abandoned even if she was the daughter of Brian Hunter.
