A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 291 Not Allowed to Resist

The boy rubbed his nose, then wrapped his arms around Vincent's neck.

"Where's mom?" Vincent asked again.

“She’s in the suite taking a shower. I snuck out all by myself!” Owen said. Then he lowered his head and pretended to be in a very miserable state, “Don’t be angry, daddy; it’s only because I missed you too much that I’d sneak out to look for you!”

“You little runt! Go, go get mommy!” Vincent picked up Owen and was about to leave.

Then, he seemed to notice Leila looking at him. He turned around to look at Leila’s pained expression. He did not give any explanation, as though she wasn’t there at all.

There was a void in Vincent’s eyes; he turned around and left with the child.

Was that his child?! Still in shock, Leila’s face turned more and more pale.

“Leila, isn’t he your husband?” Theodore couldn’t make sense of the situation either.

Leila smiled as she shook her head. “No; Professor Hall, let’s go eat!”

“Alright!”

Leila picked up her chopsticks, and perhaps because she was out of it, she didn’t take a good look before she picked up the raw fish and put it into her mouth. As she chewed, there was a strange odor, but she didn’t pay attention to it at all.

Theodore was stunned; looking at her eat raw fish, he became even more worried.

He didn’t know the details, but he knew it had something to do with that Vincent just now.

Theodore was keen to note her expression. The second Vincent showed up, it was as though her face instantly turned pale white. The second that child called Vincent daddy, her face became even paler.

“Leila, you’re chewing raw fish!”

“What?” Leila looked up at him.

Theodore pointed at the remains still on her chopsticks, “You’re chewing raw fish!”

“Ah- it’s raw?” In surprise, Leila dropped the piece of fish. She was still in shock; she actually ate raw fish. How could she have been so careless? Leila, you snap out of it, it’s not a big deal!

“Of course!” Theodore shook his head in worry. But looking at her distressed expression, he got the weird feeling of rejuvenation. As long as that godlike man had nothing to do with Leila, then Theodore still had a chance. “Leila, are you still going to stay at the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office after graduation?”

“Yes!” Leila nodded.

“Have you thought about looking for a job?”

“No!”

“What does your husband do for work?”

“…” Leila’s hand began to shake; she quickly changed the topic. “So how come you’re teaching at our school? Are you going to be a teacher forever?”

“No! After your dissertations and papers, I’ll be leaving the school to do other things!” He had to lead the class for dissertations since the prior teacher left. Besides, Theodore just returned back; he had to accept the job to get on the dean’s good graces.

“To do what?”

“Leila, I’m going to start a business!”

“Oh!” Leila half-heartedly replied, then fell silent.

That was a bland, tasteless meal, but Theodore felt as though things were going in his favor.

Eating with Theodore, Leila did not go to Vincent’s home. That child called him daddy; the way they behaved, no one would believe it if someone said they were not family, right? Besides, Vincent was a player; who knew how many women were dying to bear his child!

After the meal, Leila headed to Pearl Community, where she and her mother used to live.

Maybe this was the only place where she could find some peace and quiet.

At dawn, her phone rang; it was Vincent. “Where are you?”

Leila scoffed and asked, “Does it matter where I am at?”

“Where are you?” The voice on the other end started to get deeper.

“It doesn’t matter where I am; Mr. White, I need a quiet place to be alone. You go have a merry time with your son!”

She hung up, powered her phone down, and her tears began to pour down!

Vincent listened to the empty dial tone on the phone. He called again, only to get notified that the receiving end had turned off the phone.

“Shit!” He swore in a low voice.

Leila tried hard to raise her head and force a smile, but the tears would not stop flowing out the corner of her eyes. Her tiny hand shook a bit as she gripped her cell. Finally, everything was quiet, and she sat quietly on the couch.

The TV had on a Korean drama; the leading male and female roles were so happy together, and their lives were sugar coated with sweet memories. Why was her life such a mess?

The doorbell made her jump. She went to the door, only to see Vincent through the peephole, with a gloomy expression. She was shocked; why was he here?

But right now, she didn’t want to see him at all!

If they met now, they would very likely get in a heated argument. It won’t be Vincent being the one arguing, since Leila was afraid she wouldn't be able to control her emotions and just go ballistics. Even her patience had limits.

She merely stood at the door and didn’t open up.

“Open up, I know you’re in there!”

Leila didn’t budge. Then Vincent’s muffled voice came from outside, “Leila, you better open up now. If you don’t, I’m really going to kick the door down! You better hurry and open up!”

Leila still didn’t move, but she decided to reply. “What are you doing here? You’re not welcomed here. I don’t want to fight. Go keep your son company! I want to get a divorce!”

“Leila, whatever I says goes; you have no authority! Open up!”

“I won’t!” Leila shouted. “Go away! I don’t want to see you! And what gives you the right? How dare you threaten me? I don’t care about your threats, go away, I hate you!”

As she spoke, tears began to stream down her face again. She wiped them in a hurry and told herself not to cry.

“Fuck, Theodore is inside, isn’t he, that’s why you won’t open up?” The voice outside the door was become more and more impatient.

Leila was already upset, but with what Vincent said just now, she was set ablaze. “Do you think everyone’s like you? Do you think everyone’s as disgusting as you? You have no right to demand me not to cheat, you can’t restrain yourself, anyway. If you yourself can’t commit, why should I?”

“Bam!” There was a loud kick on the door.

Leila was startled; he actually kicked the door.

“You-”

“Bam!” Another kick.

“If you don’t open up, I’m going to kick this door down!”

“You-” Leila knew that he meant what he said. “I’m opening now!”

She had no choice but to open the door. The second she did, she saw him standing there with a look of death. His slightly messy hair made him look even more dominating and menacing. His eyes narrowed in a displeased manner.

Leila’s face was stiff, but she grit her teeth and said, “You’re not welcomed here, leave! I don’t want to argue!”

“Kicking me out to secretly hide your lover, eh?” Vincent didn’t want to bother talking to her anymore; he shoved her and stepped in, then shut the door.

He straddled into the bedroom, as if hunting for something. After he had scanned every room, including the kitchen, Vincent returned.

“What are you doing?” Leila was baffled by his actions; did he really think she was hiding someone?

“Making the rounds!” He said in a solemn voice.

Leila did not even have the chance to take a breath, when he grabbed and pressed her against the bedroom wall.

His eyes stared at her with ferocity and a mixed rage. “Secretly meeting another man and showing off on my turf? Are you asking for a death wish?”

“We’re friends, unlike you, you even have a son!” Leila felt as though her bottom line had been crossed. “You’ve got a son already, so why come after me?”

“I have a son, so what? So what if I have a son? What about it?” Vincent gripped her shoulders tightly, and the anger in his eyes looked as though he was about to incinerate her into ashes.

“You-” Leila bit her lips, “If you have a son, you should take care of him, give him a whole family! That’s how a father should behave!”

“I fucking have too many sons, does that mean I’ve gotta bring them all together?” He closed in on her, his gaze was full of hostility. His lips curled up as he said, “I’m not going to give any of them a whole family, so what? I’m going to torture you until death, what’re you gonna do able it?”

“You shameless pervert!” Leila was disgusted by him. Her eyes were filled with rage, and she began to curse at him. “He’s just a child, your child, how could you say that!”

Vincent’s grand physique grabbed her into his arms, and his eagle-like eyes met her furious eyes head on, “I’ll treat my kid however I want, you stay out of it!”

“Mr. White, let me go!” Leila’s eyes began to get cloudy. She began to whimper.

“I’m really sick of it all! Let’s get a divorce!” NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Since he has a son and he even openly admitted it, any hope in her heart was extinguished.

“Don’t you dare!” Vincent’s face became twisted, and there was an almost evil look in his eyes. He grabbed her chin with such force that it bruised in mere moments.

“I’m leaving you! I’m not going to stand it anymore! Mr. White, you can’t do this to me!” Leila scoffed, but there was a look of determination in her eyes.

“Leila, unless I say it’s over, don’t you even think about it!” Vincent’s face and words were sharp and cold as ice as he uttered each word slowly. “Looks like it’s time to unveil that tape; I’ve been looking for an opportune moment!”

“Hmph! You’re lying! I don’t believe you, you’re bluffing!” Though she wasn’t certain, but she made up her mind. She mustered her courage and glared at him, then shouted at the top of her lungs, “You’re lying!”

“Just you wait and see whether I’m lying or not!” He said in a chilling tone.

“Mr. White, just what are you-”

Before she even had a chance to finish speaking, he shredded her clothes; his icy fingers ran all across her body.

Just what did he want to do?

“I want your body; honestly, you’ve got a great body. I love the feel of it, you make me want to screw you over and over again!” Vincent stared at her with his cold, harsh gaze.

“No-” Leila refused.

Vincent picked her up and threw her onto the bed. It was a small, rigid bed, but it was one which Leila had slept in for over a decade.
