A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 301 Near or Far

After getting on the bus, Leila didn’t know where she was heading to. Then she arrived at the terminal station -- the golf course in the eastern suburbs. The driver called her, “Excuse me, Miss. We’ve arrived.”

It was not until then did Leila return to her senses and found that she had got on a bus unconsciously. She arrived at an unknown place along with the bus. The landscapes of the eastern suburbs were quite beautiful and there was a luxurious golf course. Leila got off the bus, sitting on the bench below the stop board, lost in her memories far back in the past.

Back then, she first met Mr. White, a sunshine young man. He was standing next to her sister, and her sister proudly announced to everyone that he was her boyfriend. Then in every evening, she would show off to her how nice, gentle, and considerate he was.

She must start admiring Mr. White in secret back then. However, it was her secret only and nobody knew about it. While she was thinking about it, her eyes suddenly became reddened, tears falling...

All of a sudden, there was a bottle of water appearing in front of her. She turned around and saw a blurred face with her tearful eyes, only to find that his eyes were ink-black and deep.

Without taking over the water bottle, she just said thanks to the person. However, the person didn’t leave. Leila wiped off her tears in a daze. Suddenly, she gaped and stood up immediately. “Mr., Mr. White?”

“What are you doing here?” Vincent asked in a deep voice.

He came over to play golf with his client. When he drove passing here, he saw her get off the bus. If it weren’t that it’s a rural place or she was wearing the dress that was picked by him in person, he wouldn’t take a look at an unknown woman. With a glance, he directly pulled over.

Then from afar, he could see her shedding tears as if she was in outer space and she was sitting blow the stop board. Then he took a bottle and got off the car.

“I took the wrong bus and went past the stop, so I arrived here,” Leila said in a low voice, looking down.

“What are you crying for?” Looking at her pitiful face, he couldn’t help frowning.

What could she answer? She had no guts to tell him the truth.

She looked up gingerly, seeing his good-looking face with delicate features, black hair, gray business casual suit, and white trousers. He stood in front of her casually, emanating the deadly attractiveness.

Leila said in a soft tone, “Because I went past the stop.”

Seemingly she had learned how to lie. She could easily find a reason to shed tears.

“Well, Mr. White, why are you here?”

His lips curled up. “You were crying because you went past the stop, weren’t you?”

Leila felt somewhat awkward and didn’t know what to say. She wanted to explain to him but couldn’t find the right words. She cried because she had met him and recalled his lonely youth, which was the same as hers. Hence, she could only twitch her mouth corners in embarrassment. “Yeah, I’m just so stupid.”

Vincent’s eyes became sharp immediately. Then he asked, “Have you had lunch yet?”

Leila hesitated, then shook her head.

Vincent frowned. Casting a glance of the golf course’s location, he pulled out the phone. “Hello, Arthur. I have something to deal with. Please accompany Monty and his team. I’ll not go in there.”

Then he hung up the phone and said to her, “I’ll send you home.”

“I can take the bus to go back. I know you’re quite busy.” Actually, she truly wanted to take the initiative and hugged him, telling him that she would accompany him from now on. No matter what threat she would receive, as long as he needed her, she could accompany him always.

“Let’s go.” He reached out to grab her hand.

She was taken aback, raising her head. He was staring at her, and seemingly something was suppressed in his eyes. He looked down at her with a sharp and cold gaze. When meeting his eyes, she just felt that the man in front of her had a trace of deep sorrow in his eyes.

He had done a good job to hide the sorrow, but she still discovered it when looking into his eyes.

They were standing so close to each other, but she felt that the distance between them was quite far. Near or far, she couldn’t tell.

Leila blinked, worry appearing in her eyes. She held his hand back gently and asked in a soft tone, “Mr. White, do you feel a pain in your heart?”

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and seemingly he didn’t understand why she asked such a question. At the same time, he had to admit that his heart feeling hurt so much. But it only happened occasionally, like just now.

He didn’t answer her, pulling her into the car.

Then he sat on the driver’s seat and passed a bottle of water to her. “Take some water. Your lips are so dry as a cat’s ass!”

Leila felt that she blushed instantly. A cat’s ass? How embarrassing!

Vincent tilted his head slightly and cast a glance at her. Seeing that she felt embarrassed, he curled up his lips. Then he concentrated on the road ahead. The car turned around and headed towards the direction where the villa of NT Mountain was.

Right then, Leila’s phone suddenly rang in her bag. Leila pulled it out, feeling puzzled. It was a call from an unknown number. She swiped to answer, and Vivienne’s voice was heard. “Hello, Lexi. Are you coming to the taekwondo gymnasium this afternoon?”

“Oh, I see. Vivienne, I’ll be there. See you in the afternoon!” Leila deliberately mentioned the caller’s name. She didn’t want to let Vincent know that she was learning taekwondo. It was because she wanted to deal with him, but now she felt a bit guilty and she was also afraid that he would get angry after knowing.

“Are you going out this afternoon?” Vincent raised his eyebrows. Looking at his watch, it was already three o’clock, and she wanted to go out. He had dumped his client to accompany her, but she would go out. Vincent couldn’t explain why he felt somewhat upset after she answered a call.

Putting away her phone, Leila nodded. She said, “I’ll join a workout team. I’ll spend two hours every afternoon for the workout.”

“Oh!” He was a bit surprised. He was stunned for a few seconds, and then he said, “It’s good for you. You’re too bony.”

He didn’t oppose it, did he?

“Don’t you oppose me to work out?” She was a bit startled.

“Why would I?”

“That’s good then.” Leila breathed a sigh of relief. Leaning against the back of the seat, she laughed so joyfully, “I thought you would oppose. Unexpectedly you didn’t. Mr. White, it’s so nice of you! Ho ho...”

“Everyone has his or her own space. Am I that unreasonable?” Vincent cast a glance at Leila. The gratefulness and excitement shown on her pleased him completely.

He enjoyed seeing Leila behave like a spoiled little woman and the admiration in her eyes when she was looking at him.

“Not really. It was because you used to be ... I dare not to tell you, afraid that you didn’t agree.” Leila was quite surprised. Did it mean that he started to be considerate to others?

“You can tell me in the future. If it’s a proper one, you can go.”

“Really? All right. I’ll definitely tell you everything!” Leila was extremely delighted, going overexcited. “By the way, is it OK if you don’t go to work?”

“No problem!” He uttered two words. Vincent was always no so talkative.

“Okay.” Leila thought for a while then added, “You can drop me off downtown. I’ll go to Pearl Community. I’ll go back home in the evening.”

Vincent was silent. The car was heading to Pearl Community. Arriving at the entrance of the residence area, Vincent pulled over at the entrance of a supermarket. When Leila was about to get off, he said, “Go to buy some ingredients. I haven’t had lunch, either.” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Ah--” Leila was taken aback. “Why didn’t you have lunch? Were you quite busy in the morning so you didn’t have time to eat? I’ll go to buy some ingredients now. I’ll prepare the lunch after going home.”

She hurriedly got off and rushed to buy the ingredients. Sitting in the car, Vincent watched her rush into the supermarket, a trace of amusement flashing through his eyes. It flashed extremely fast.

When Leila came back, she had a bag of food and ingredients in her hands. Panting, she sat in the car again. “Hurry up! Are you starved? What do you want to eat? I’ve bought a lot of food. I can cook them for you.”

Vincent started the engine and drove the car to the downstairs of Leila’s apartment. They went upstairs. After opening the door, Leila put the bag of food on the table and hung her handbag. Then she walked into the kitchen with the food and ingredients. She asked again since he hadn’t answered yet, “What do you want to eat the most?”

Vincent walked over and followed her into the kitchen. Then he held her from behind. Leila panicked, blushing. His big hands wrapped around her slender waist, pushing her against his body. He said, “I want to eat you.”

“Ah!” Leila’s face was reddened, feeling embarrassed and awkward. “Mr., Mr. White... I... I’ll cook.”

He made her stammered.

However, Vincent only held her in his arms, pressing his chin on her shoulder. Then he opened his mouth to bite her earlobe. He asked ambiguously, “Does it still hurt for last night?”

“Ah--” Leila exclaimed, her ears blushing as well.

“Does it still hurt?” he asked again. Since she didn’t answer, he suddenly bit her earlobe again as if it was a punishment. “Answer me!”

“No! It doesn’t hurt anymore!” Leila growled, the strength of her whole body draining off. A strange heat attacked her, making her legs weakened.

She found that she couldn’t hold it on at all, so she twisted her body. However, he held her more tightly. She could feel that his arms tightly wrapping around her waist as vines.

Their bodies clinging to each other seamlessly.

“Mr. White, let me cook first!” she exclaimed while panting. Then she felt his breathing changed and something hard on his lower abdomen was against her bottom.

“No-- Mr. White--”

The next second, her face was forcible turned over to face Vincent’s smiling handsome face. One of his hands pinched her chin. “We’ll have enough strength to cook only after getting full. What do you think?”

His voice was quite slight but his breath exhaled onto her face was extremely hot.

He gradually released her but still gazed at her. There was a trace of dangerous light flashing through his evil and pretty eyes.

Of course, Leila got what he meant by “getting full”.

“Well... Wait a moment. We, we can wait after I’ve finished cooking...” Leila became a bit frightened and didn’t know what to do while feeling so shy. She wanted to tell him that it was more important to have lunch.

However, the next second, she was drowned in Vincent’s passionate kiss. Their lips and teeth tangled with each other’s. His god-like face enlarged in front of her. Although she had slept with him before, she still felt dizzy.

He was so overbearing. She wondered if she had to let him get whatever he wanted whenever and wherever he had the desire. She pushed him gingerly and didn’t want to do it in the daytime.

“How dare you push me?” His eyes were darkened. Holding her more tightly, while feeling her resistance, the most primitive desire swelled in an instant. He attacked her attractive red lips without any hesitation, biting and torturing them. “This is the punishment for you.”

Feeling that her head span dizzily, Leila couldn’t dodge the hot kiss that could burn everything down. Whenever she resisted, the man’s desire was aroused more. When his strong hand stroke over her body, bring her the feel of electric current, she trembled. She wanted to struggle, but she failed to use her strength.
