A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 487

He just found that he had fallen in love with her, and she died in his arm, how sarcastic it was!

Was it the worst revenge falling on him? He was retaliated for he had not been treating her nicely. Thus, God had arranged this sad ending to let him live by himself in loneliness for the rest of his life?

He kept hugging her in his arms until his tears drained. Then, he kissed her forehead again, choked in sobs, and spoke softly, “Macey, I will take you home… We are back…”

The policemen in the car were all weeping.

In a warehouse near the sea, there were stacks of fireworks.

Leila woke up quietly.

“Awake?” Leila was suddenly startled by a familiar female voice.

Explosion? That scene flashed in her mind. Where were Arthur and her sister?

Leila looked at Pippa in a daze. She was sluggish for a moment. At that moment, her face turned gloomy, it was really her. “It's you!”

Leila was in extreme anger, she stood up suddenly!

But Pippa just pushed her down and her hoarse voice came over clearly, “Leila, I am going to die today, and I am going to let you die with me! Do you see? All these fireworks here will explode soon and let’s die together!”

“You crazy bitch!” Leila roared angrily in a low voice. She felt that all her wrath exploded in an instant. Pippa was really crazy. “What about Renee? What had you done to her?”

“I only want you to die with me! I don’t want her to die with me!” Pippa smiled coldly, “Don't worry, she's fine!”

“Pippa, you, lunatic!” However, it seemed that Renee was safe, Leila took a breath of relief.

“Maybe it doesn’t happen to be what I said. It depends on whether the people want to spare Renee. It’s not up to me!”

“Do you still have accomplices?” Her nervous expression made her face look a little pale. That was the first time that she didn't want to die in that way. After all, she had finally reconciled with Vincent, they had gone through all the difficulties and obstacles, it was so uneasy for them to be together.

“So what? Just as you said, I am a lunatic and I just want to take you away, let you die, and let Vincent suffer!”

“What’s good for you?”

“It’s not a bad thing to me though!” Pippa had made her decision, and she just wished to let Leila die with her. “It’s your fate to accompany me on the way of death!”

“Why are you doing this?” Leila had no ideas, “Why are you still so stubborn? Don’t continue to be lunatic, Pippa! What advantage will you get from it?”

“I am stubborn?” Pippa pointed at herself, “If it weren’t you, I will only be imprisoned and get out in a few years. But because of you, because of all of the Hunters, I had to suffer in hell! That’s grief that I will never forget forever. You tell me, how can I just get it over so kindly?”

“What do you mean?”

“Because of you, I was raped and ruined by your enemy. This is my lifelong nightmare. Thus, I am going to drag you to be with me. Am I wrong? If it weren't because of your family, I wouldn't be ruined. You are the one that should have been ruined! Do you know how disgusting, dirty, and ugly the man is?”

Leila’s heart trembled, she just felt like her heart was tightly clenched by a hand and the pain spread across her heart. Leila opened her mouth, but she found that she had no idea what to say.

She didn't know what she had done. Leila murmured, “How could this be?”

Pippa looked at Leila’s with her eyes filled with tangled hatred. Then, she spoke in a cool tone as if a cold wind was blowing from her body. She said, “Do you know how hard it was for me to decide to give up? I even gave up provoking you so that you and Vincent can be together peacefully and I thought I would never involve myself in the matter between you two again. Do you know how much courage did it take for me to give up? Do you know how much my heart hurt?!”

She shook Leila’s arm, and her voice became stern suddenly which was just like a sharp knife stuck in her heart. “But, but your enemy came to me, why? Why am I the one who was ruined? You are the one who should be ruined, not me, I'm taking the insult for you! So how am I wrong to let you die with me?”

Leila’s chest quaked and she couldn’t move but was stunned. “Pippa, you—”

Leila felt that the blood in her body seemed to freeze at that moment and she just lost the ability to think.

Leila looked at Pippa in disbelief. Pippa said that she was raped? And Leila was the person who should be raped, and Pippa bore it for her?! That's what she meant.

Leila was stunned and her gaze did not leave Pippa’s eyes for a moment. Leila’s voice trembled and she asked, “Pippa, you…what did you say?”

Pippa’s sorrowed smile expanded. She slightly shook her head and laughed at herself, “It's useless to say anything! I just want you to die, stay with me, make Vincent sad, and let him live in loneliness for the rest of his life! I want him to be unable to love anyone anymore!”

Pippa turned her head and looked at Leila, her gaze was full of complexion, it seemed like she had understood something.

Leila turned her head and looked at the other side of the warehouse. There were stacks of firecrackers piled up. The air was filled with the smell of nitrate and phosphorus which had come from the fireworks and explosives. Pippa’s eyes were firm and indifferent. She spoke coldly, “It doesn’t matter. You have to die!”

“Let’s go and die now! I'll be with you!” Leila laughed at herself. “Since I'm going to die, don't torture me. Hurry up, light it up!"

“No!” Pippa shook her head. “He hasn't had sex with you yet so you can't die now even if you want to! I have suffered and you have to suffer too!”

The door of the warehouse was suddenly opened with a ‘bang’ sound and it was followed by footsteps.

Leila was startled and panicked. She looked at Pippa, while Pippa just narrowed her eyes and gave a cold snort. “Your good day is coming too!”

“Pippa, stop before it’s too late!” Leila whispered.

“Haha, Leila, I finally caught you! I miss you so much! How do you feel when you see me?” Carson Palmer laughed wildly and evilly. He was staring at Leila who was in a panic with his vicious and triumphant eyes.

“It's you?” Leila finally saw Carson clearly. “You—”

“Yes! It's me. Your sister had a very good relationship with me before! She had promised to get you for me but it was such a sad thing that you were saved by Charles Read on the way!”

“It was you who wanted to kidnap me that time?” Leila froze. She was thinking of the time when she was taken by Charles.

“Yes! Don't even think about getting away from me this time!” Carson was talking with a smile. “Just wait for me! I'll settle my chores and come back with you later!”

“Carson Palmer, you are detaining me illegally!” Leila calmed down and talked to him, she was trying to correct him. “You will be imprisoned if you continue to do this!”

“Oh, Really?” Carson seemed to take what she just said as a joke. “Even Mr. Ellis, the new head of the government, is not going to do anything, do you think that you can control it? Oh! Thinking about it, when your father, the mayor, Brian Hunter was alive, he kept seeking trouble from me, causing my business to fail and my casino could not open. Even when my nightclub was opened, he asked people to seize me. However, he is no longer here anymore, who do you think can help you? The new mayor has been settled by me long ago! I will be fine if the mayor does not sign the arrest warrant!”

“Do you think you can get away like that? Do you think Mr. Ellis is willing to lose his job for you?"
