A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 257

Leila was about to say something, but they had already left straight away. She was stunned. She hesitated for a moment and headed towards the stairs. Vincent’s suite was located two floors away from the conference room, so she decided to use the stairs.

When she was walking in the corridor, a tall figure walked towards her from the direction of the elevator. Leila was dumbfounded as she saw that he just came up to this floor although he used the elevator.

He didn’t say anything but only took a glance at her.

“Vincent!” Leila shouted, “Are you looking for me to do something for you?”

He kept silent and opened the room door. Leila had no choice but to follow him in. The atmosphere between them was a bit weird.

Until the door was completely closed, blocking everything outside, Leila lowered down her head, waiting for Vincent to say something.

“How dare you!” His voice was deep and as cold as ice.

Leila shivered and felt aggrieved. Was he talking about the incident where she didn’t come to his suite when Manager Billy asked her to come this afternoon? She felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness in her heart.

Leila, there’s nothing to be nervous about! You had decided to reject him, so you must bear the consequences. The video had already been deleted, so there’s nothing to be afraid of. He can’t threaten you anymore! Even though Vincent is a big shot, but he is still a human! There’s nothing to be afraid of!

As she thought about this, she felt calm. She lifted her head. However, as she looked into his pair of eyes which were filled with anger, her slight hint of calmness disappeared immediately.

“Take a deep breath! Relax! Don’t be afraid!” She thought to herself.

Leila consoled herself and forced a smile on her face. She spoke softly, “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

As he heard this, he snorted coldly and tugged his tie hard with frustrations. He tugged so hard until the tie came off his neck. Two buttons on his shirt were untied and a teeth mark on his chest was revealed. Leila was shocked and she turned her face away.

“You’re acting dumb, aren’t you?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about!” She still said the same thing.

“Didn’t Manager Billy find you?” Vincent asked patiently,

The atmosphere around them was domineering. Leila could clearly feel his hostile aura. She felt uneasy and took another deep breath.

Now she realized what Vincent was referring to. She gave him a smile that looked sweet and bright. “Manager Billy did find me!”

She didn’t comply with anything before this. Hence, this time she wouldn’t need to comply too.

Vincent looked at her, his eyes regained their calmness. He asked calmly, “So you took my words as farts?”

The smile on Leila’s face stiffened. She couldn’t believe that he just described his own words as farts. She felt a little awkward and said, “I didn’t!”

While she was saying this, Vincent kept staring at her. All her facial expressions had fallen into his eyes. He snorted in his heart.

“You have the guts to rebel but don’t have the guts to admit it?”

“I have an appointment with a colleague!” She said, “And it’s my work time. I don’t have time to come up here!”

“Is it?” Vincent slowly walked to Leila’s side. He bent his body and looked at her eyes, saying coldly, “You’d hide on the stairs to read a mobile novel if you didn’t have time?”

“Uh!” She froze, her heart suddenly beat in shock. She couldn’t believe that he actually knew about her hiding on the stairs at noon to read a novel.

Her small hands clenched and grabbed her shirt. At this moment, she felt very embarrassed. She wished that she could just turn around and run away.

“What do you want to add?” Vincent spoke coldly. He noticed that she had kept her head low for quite some time, not saying anything.

“I just don’t want to come up. Just kill me or do whatever to me as you wish!” Leila suddenly raised her head and looked into his eyes. Then, she quickly lowered her head again, “Anyway, I just don’t want to come up!”

“Do I look like a venomous and fierce creature to you?” Vincent said impatiently as he wrinkled his eyebrows.

“Uh… You’re way scarier than those creatures!” Her body stiffened and her teeth clenched her lower lip. She just couldn’t help but refute. He was such a sinister and cunning man. She was afraid that she wouldn’t even know what would he do to her if she was not cautious enough.

“What did you say?” He glared.

“...” Leila was speechless.

“Lift your face. Don’t you know that you should look at people’s eyes when you talk?” His tone was already very impatient.

She didn’t know what his expression was, so she lowered her head even more. He was slightly impatient. Finally, he reached out and lifted her chin. He narrowed his eyes and observed her from head to toe. He caught sight of her eyes, which were filled with stubbornness and struggles. Her expression looked contradictory. Two different kinds of emotion appeared in her eyes. From that, he could figure out that she was contradictory.

Leila looked at him. The teeth marks on his chest pierced her eyes. He had been with different women every night. She couldn’t bear with him any longer. Leila gritted her teeth and decided to say what was in her heart, “Let’s get a divorce!”

“What?” His eyes closed. His cold and handsome face showed the anger in his heart.

“Divorce!” Leila gritted her teeth and turned her head away, “We are not in love in the first place. There’s no point in maintaining such a marriage! It’s better to get rid of it earlier.”

“The rules of the game can only be set by me. Did you forget what I said?” Vincent smiled faintly. A hint of danger crossed his eyes. He smiled coldly. He reached out and scooped up her hair, and placed it below his nose. He smelled it. His tone was extremely frivolous as an aura of danger could be felt from him, “Did you think that you’re safe as long as the video was deleted?”

Deep in his heart, Vincent laughed coldly. Let them go? Impossible!

“You’re right, not many people know that we’re married, and I don’t intend to let too many people know too. It’s true that you don’t deserve me and your sister indeed did something wrong, but that’s not the point!”

“What’s the point?” Leila was surprised.

“You want to know?” Vincent’s eyes had a hint of interest. His sharp eyes looked into her eyes and said wickedly, “I won’t tell you!”

As soon as Leila heard his words, she was dumbfounded and almost fainted. He was such a pervert! A true pervert!

“I thought that in the business world, you are considered a businessman who sticks to your principles and credibility. I thought the same goes for being a human. I didn’t expect you to be a villain!” Leila said seriously.

“This isn’t the first time you called me a villain. Anyway, I don’t want to be a gentleman after all.”

Vincent walked towards the sofa and sat on it. He leaned backwards and said, “If you like to disobey my orders and treat my words as farts, just try, and I’ll show you how am I gonna play this game!”

Leila gritted her teeth, raised her eyes, and smiled, “How do you want to play? I’ll definitely accompany you. Plus, I will never go against you in the future.”

“Come here!” He waved his hands.

She stopped, and walked slowly to him, “Vincent!”

“Sit on my lap!”

She wished to kill herself when she heard his words. She remembered the scene when that day he ordered her to sit on his lap. Her heart shivered but she walked straight over and sat on his lap. “I see, you like to be a chair!”

His cold eyes narrowed fiercely. After two seconds, a smile bloomed on his lips. His gaze was like a knife as he looked at her. Then, his thin lips slowly spat out five words, “Help me light my cigarette.”

“Nuts!” She refuted him in her mind, but she knew that she couldn’t make him angry. However, he grabbed her waist suddenly.

“The cigarettes are in the pocket of my suit, the right side.”

Leila reached out for the cigarettes, and she really felt the cigarettes in his pocket and the lighter too. His strong male scent lingered below her nose, making her heart flutter constantly. Her hands shook and she could barely take out the cigarette. She didn’t know what he was going to do, and she could only take out the cigarette as she was told and put it in front of his mouth. Vincent used his mouth to hold the end of the cigarette. She saw the dangerous aura in his eyes, making her even more nervous.

She looked at Vincent in fright, “Vincent, I will help you to light it up!”

She opened the lighter, a flame emerged. Her hand was shivering as she lit the cigarette. The tip of the cigarette glowed and showed a light of red flames.
