A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 245 Experiencing A Car Accident

Thinking about her previous life, Leila's eyes still couldn't help but dim. Yes, she had actually been an illegitimate daughter, and even though she knew that her biological father was Brian, all the outsiders knew that she was the illegitimate daughter of an unknown father. Because of the death of Brian's wife, her mom, who had been Brian's underground lover for many years, finally had the opportunity to become his official wife, and she finally had the honor of being Brian's daughter.

However, she was always Brian's daughter! Although she was an illegitimate daughter, the illegitimate daughter was also his daughter!

But who made her mom fall in love with Brian, who was actually her brother-in-law? Her mom stole Mrs. Hunter's husband, and Mrs. Hunter even sacrificed her life to save her. Therefore, she owed Mrs. Hunter this life, and all she could do was to help Mrs. Hunter guard Macey.

"Little liar!" Vincent snorted coldly.

Leila lowered her head to hide her loss of coolness, tears welling up in her eyes. Yes, if she said she had never blamed her father, how was that possible? And he, on the other hand, could see through her mind so easily.

The atmosphere of the dinner became a little different and no one spoke anymore.

Later, Vincent received a phone call. When he looked at the caller ID, his face clouded over and asked in a deep voice, "What did you say? Alright! I got it. I'll be right there, wait for me!"

Leila didn't know what had happened as she saw Vincent stood up, almost hit the table, and left in a hurry. He didn't even give Leila a second look. She had never seen him in such a hurry before and wondered for a moment what had happened.

So, in this spacious villa, Leila was left alone. She got up and put away the dishes, and after washing the kitchen utensils, she went back to the room alone. She laid down on the bed, with her eyes open. This night, she spent most of the night with her eyes open looking at the ceiling, with no intention of sleeping.

It had been three days since Vincent left that day, and the weekend came in a flash.

Leila hadn't seen him or received a single phone call from him in the past few days. After work, Renee asked her to go shopping at the mall.

"Wow!" Hearing an exclamation from Renee, she then ran to a brand store at the speed of a hundred meter sprint and pointed to a white dress on the model under the light. She shook her head uncontrollably and exclaimed, "Wow! Leila, look at this dress. It's so beautiful, you must look like a princess in it."

Leila looked at the dress and nodded. "Yes, it's very beautiful!"

"Miss, we would like to try on this dress!" Renee said to the sales lady.

Leila thought Renee was going to try on the dress and headed for a lounge chair. But when she was about to sit down, she didn't expect Renee to give her the dress. "Go in and try it on!"

"Uh!" Leila shook her head and said to Renee, "I'm not buying a dress!"

"This dress is perfect for you, listen to me! It really suits you!" Renee's excessive enthusiasm left Leila with nothing to say but to let Renee push her into the fitting room.

Yes! This dress was so beautiful! After wearing it, her temperament completely changed and she became a lovely princess.

She squirmed and walked out of the fitting room.

"Ah…You're so beautiful!" Renee almost screamed.

The sales lady also came over with a smile. "Yes, Miss, this dress is so suitable for you. It seems to be specially tailored for you!"

"Just buy it!" Renee suggested excitedly.

"How much is it?" Leila thought it shouldn't be cheap, the clothes in this store were all exquisite.

"Miss, this dress is our new arrival and there is only one in the whole F city. Its price is 9,800 yuan!" The sales lady introduced it with a very professional smile. "It is definitely worth more than its cost!"

When Leila heard the price, she almost fainted. The price was equivalent to several months of her salary, "Uh! No, I can't afford it!"

She was honest.

"Leila, why don't you buy it? This dress is well worth its value. You can ask your husband to buy it for you!"

Renee said, "Isn't he a corporate tycoon? By the way, Leila, I heard that Vincent is your husband, is this rumor true?"

Leila twitched the corner of her lips awkwardly and shook her head.

When the sales lady saw that she couldn't afford it, her face immediately changed, "Miss, if you don't want to buy it, please take it off!"

Although the sales lady's tone was wrong, she didn't go too far; however, Renee felt offended.

"Hey! Who says we can't afford it? Leila, call your husband! I want to know who your husband is too! See if the rumors are true?"

When Leila was about to speak, she heard a softly spoken voice from behind. "Vincent, this dress is so beautiful, I love it so much!"

"Then buy it!" A low and familiar male voice followed.

Leila was stunned as she saw in the mirror a slender figure walking towards the store with an elegant stride.

With a "buzz", Leila felt a thunderbolt explode in her mind, followed by a blank in front of her eyes.

She saw Vincent, and by his side, a willowy beauty was holding his arm. It was another unfamiliar woman. When they stood together, the handsome man and the beautiful woman were really a pair of perfect couples, so dazzling that others couldn't open their eyes.

Renee and the sales lady's attentions were drawn to them.

Leila kept looking at Vincent's face from the mirror, and he glanced as if unconsciously into Leila's eyes in the mirror. His eyes went cold, flickering with a certain shimmer, but still remaining his composure. Slowly, a grim smile emerged on his lips.

Leila was flustered and immediately lowered her head.

"Vincent, I want to buy the dress she is wearing!" The beauty said to the sales lady.

"Okay, then I'll take this dress she's wearing!" Vincent's voice was low and clear.

Leila instantly came back to her senses, he wanted her to take off this dress because he wanted to buy it for another woman? A self-deprecating smile appeared on her lips as she quickly lowered her head and said, "I'll change it right away!"

She walked into the fitting room and changed into her own clothes. Leila hooked up the corner of her lips gently, he pretended not to know her, and she could also pretend not to know him. She still had that quality. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She took a deep breath and thought to herself, 'don't think too much, Leila, it's no big deal!' Then she took the dress and walked out of the fitting room.

"Leila, let's buy it, I'll buy it for you!" Renee was irritated, "You look beautiful in this dress, let's buy it!"

With that, Renee gave a disdainful glance at the woman beside Vincent, snorted and took out her purse.

"No! I don't want it!" Leila didn't expect Renee to do that and immediately drew the dress back to stop her from paying. "Renee, thank you!"

"Vincent, will I look good in this dress?" The beauty asked Vincent.

"Sure! You'll look good in anything!" Vincent's voice was gentle and affectionate.

Leila didn't look at her, and as she was about to hand the dress to the sales lady, a slender arm unexpectedly stretched out in front of her. His slender fingers were right in front of her eyes, and Leila handed the dress over.

"Miss, thank you!" Vincent said.

Leila lifted her head with some surprise and met Vincent's dark eyes, which were as unfathomable as a whirlpool in the deep sea. His nose bridge was high, his thin lips pursed into a sulking curve, and his black suit outlined his well-built and robust body.

They hadn't seen each other for three days, and he was still as handsome as ever. She thought he was busy with work, but she didn't expect him to meet with his lover secretly. Facing his impeccable face,

she knew Vincent had the capital to do whatever he wanted.

"Sir, you're welcome!" Leila said indifferently.

Their tone sounded as if they were strangers, and no one could tell that they were actually newlyweds, not even that they knew each other.

"Vincent, I'm going to try on this dress! Thank you!" The beauty smiled delicately, took the dress, printed a kiss on Vincent's cheek, and went to the fitting room.

Renee also came back to her senses and pouted. She was a little stunned just now as this man looked familiar to her, but she couldn't remember who he was for a while, so she kept thinking. Seeing that the beauty was going to buy the dress, she nudged Leila, "What a pity! This dress is so beautiful, but it's actually going to be worn by a mistress. Leila, this dress really suits you, why don't you let me buy it?!"

Leila's gaze still fell on Vincent, she hadn't recovered from when the beauty kissed him just now.

Vincent's eyes locked on Leila's face, and slowly, his lips curled up playfully.

"Leila?" Renee nudged Leila with her elbow again.

"Uh! Let's go!" Leila was finally brought to her senses and pulled Renee towards the escalator in the mall.

"Hey! Leila, that man looks so familiar, who is he? He looks rich, and I can tell that woman must be his mistress. It's disgusting that a prostitute actually wears such an elegant dress. She fucking ruined the designer's elaborate design! The moral degradation of this world is getting worse day by day! Yuck!" Renee cursed spitefully as she walked.

Leila smiled. "Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner!"

"The dress has been bought by the mistress, you are still in the mood to eat? Such a handsome man has also been ruined by the mistress, how you can still be in the mood to eat!" Renee rolled her eyes.

"Food is the paramount necessity of the people," Leila said with a smile. "Eating is important!"

"Alright!"

They went to the restaurant on the first floor, found a seat and started to order.

"That man just now is so familiar, how come I can't remember?" Renee frowned, still racking her brains.

Leila indulged herself in the deliciousness of the food, but she had no idea what it really tasted like.

"Ah - isn't he Vincent?" Renee suddenly exclaimed. "That's right, isn't that man Vincent? No wonder he looks so familiar! Leila, there is rumor that he is your husband, is it true?"

Leila nearly choked to death with her startled scream. "Shhh!"

"Oh! Damn, he's actually keeping a woman, Leila, you..." Renee's gaze towards Leila began to be filled with sympathy and pity.

"How could he do that?"

"Let's eat!" Leila smiled, obviously not wanting to mention it.

Her silence made Renee at a loss for words. She felt like comforting her, but she actually didn't know what she should say when she saw Leila being so calm.

After dinner, the time was already 8:00 p.m. After bidding farewell to Renee, Leila went to take the bus and had to walk some distance.

Leila was walking along the street and with a loud bang, a car seemed to lose control. It almost crashed over and she didn't notice, but fortunately the driver reacted quickly. The car skidded, and at the moment it was about to hit Leila, there was a creak and then the car brushed against Leila

"Bang -"Leila was hit by the car and her whole body fell backwards. The scene was a mess and all the chaos stopped after a few seconds.

"Ouch...hurt...It hurts..." Leila curled her body by the street.

The driver in the car also hadn't recovered from the fright. He actually had a flat tire!

The driver was actually Julian, who didn't notice that the person he had knocked down was Leila, and it was only when he got out of the car in shock to check the woman's injuries that he realized it was Leila.

"Leila?!"

"Ah, she's bleeding...hurry up and send her to the hospital." A passerby next to her shouted nervously, while taking out his cell phone to call an ambulance." Hello, here is XX road, someone was hit by a car over here, please send an ambulance!"
