A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 296 You Hurt Me the Most

“Don't make me hate you!” She whispered, her teeth sinking into her lips.

“Heh! Can hatred earn money?” He raised his eyebrows.

The unpleasant sound of her sister's moans came from the TV, that was the first time Leila saw the performance in pornography. The TV screen was so big that almost every sweat pore of hers could be seen. She forced herself not to look, but she could not stop those delicate sound from entering her ears.

“What did I do wrong? What kind of deal did you make with my father? Vincent, if you are a man, you should go pick a fight with other men, do you really think you are so great bullying a weak woman like me?”

“Do you really don’t know whether I am a man? Did you pant under a woman’s crotch last night?”

Leila’s body shivered with anger at these words.

Vincent walked slowly to the bar and poured a glass of wine, taking a sip from his tall glass.

“If you want to use last night’s example to prove that you are a man, then I think you are really not qualified as one. A man like you could not even make a woman happy, and you still dare to claim to be a man, what a joke. No wonder my sister refused to be with you. Since you still kept this tape, you should take the time to watch it, do you have the demeanor as the man in the tape?” Leila knew that these words would really anger him, but she could not care less. Besides, sometimes cutting off one’s means of retreat was not necessarily a bad thing.

After hearing the sound of a glass shattering, Vincent’s body stiffened. The glass in the hand was flung violently, and glass shards flew in all directions. Vincent stepped forward, his index finger bent over and

hooked her chin, a distorted expression could be seen on his handsome face, a cold smile rose up, “You are trying to provoke me, right?”

Leila remained silent, her pale and delicate face looked at him angrily, but her voice trembled like a falling leaf in the autumn wind. “It is you who is too disappointing!”

“Leila, you can't blame me for that!” He waved his hand violently, pushed her away, and called someone through his phone. “Manager Billy, come here for a moment, I have a video tape here, you come and take it immediately and pass it to…”

“No…” Leila lunged over, “Don’t do it!”

The call was forcibly interrupted, and Vincent looked at Leila bloodthirstily and playfully. “What now? Don't you dare?”

Vincent looked down on her arrogantly, a smirk could be seen rising up from his face. He reached out his face to hold her chin. His long fingers squeezed hard on it and his cold breath sprayed on her already deathly pale face.

“You're inhuman!” She gritted her teeth.

“Do you think I am more inhuman than Brian Hunter? Your father is the one who likes to act great but isn’t, right?” He said in a deep voice, his tone cold and his gaze was even more bitter. “And can you and your mother living next to him be considered as humans?”

Leila’s mind was at a loss, she really did not know what all this entanglement was all about?

She wanted to say something, but she felt that nothing was right to say. Of course, no matter what, she would not give up her mother's happiness, and she was willing to sacrifice her own freedom and happiness for her mother's happiness.

The TV was still showing unpleasant images of Macey and the man who kept his back against the camera trying different positions. Leila only felt that her mouth was dry and her body was uncomfortable as if she had thorns all over her body.

Her heart was bleeding, as if her heart had been cut through, so painful that she could not help but to cry again. She hurriedly lowered her head and reaching out her hand to wipe away her tears. She rarely cries and does not allow herself to cry much, but the tears just will not stop. “He didn't hurt me as much as you did! I don't care that he hurt me, but…”

‘I couldn’t don’t care that you hurt me!’ She thought to herself. These words could only be kept in the bottom of her heart.

She did not want him to see her weakness and swallowed her sourness arduously.

Her sudden crying caused Vincent to be silent.

He stared at her lowered head and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something. However, he could not get the words out of his mouth. What did she mean? He wanted to ask, but in the end he could not.

She whispered, “Please, turn off the video!”

He wanted to turn off the video, but when his eyes saw the Armani’s branded clothes for men on the floor, his anger bubbled up again. He then screamed like a hedgehog and said, “Ha! Don't you think she looks good? Aren’t you envious of your sister as she could indulge in such pleasure below the man’s crotch? How about this, do you want me to find this man for you, so you can do it with him?”

She jerked her head up and saw Vincent with a fierce face and a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.

“You're shameless!”

Vincent did not think much about what she said, instead he sneered, “Isn’t this pleasing to the eye? Isn't the feeling of peeping extraordinarily exciting? Are you too ashamed to look, or are you too embarrassed to look? Or are you simply too horny? Waiting for me to fuck you?”

“You pervert…” Leila found herself unable to argue and her tongue was in knots.

"Pervert? Am I as perverted as your good sister? Look at her posture, I'm afraid even Japanese actresses will do be able to do these postures, right? Don’t you see her looking like a pig in heat, lying on the wall acting as if she is a lizard? Don't you think this is all very unpleasant to see and hear? But if Macey was able to do such things, why can't I watch it?” Vincent pointed at the TV screen, his eyes full of disdain and sarcasm. “This is much better than watching other unfamiliar Japanese porn!”

Leila’s heart ached; she was unable to say anything after being retorted by him. Her heart also started feeling depressed as she stared at him in a daze. Seeing through the pair of large eyes full of clarity, a trace of stubbornness could be seen. As she forced herself to hold back the tears, she just stared at him. “It really is unpleasant to both the ears and the eyes, please turn it off! Vincent, I know you have grievances in your heart, if you really feel you have no place to vent them, just vent it to me!”

She lowered her head again.

If things were to end, she hoped her humble attitude would make him be more compassionate and let go of the video tape altogether.

“I am not angry! I also don’t feel any resentment either!” He said softly, “I just like to see you guys being nervous. I also like seeing people who I am familiar with performing sex, what to do? I find it so exciting, don't you?”

She really could not listen to it anymore because what he said was too evil. “Vincent, please turn it off, okay?”

“Not okay!” A smile could be seen rising up on his face. He was smiling wickedly, his eyes full of disdain and ridicule. He just continued looking at her, kept looking at her. “Why do you always have to try and piss me off?”

Forced to swallow the sourness in her heart, Leila said softly, “Vincent, I didn't want to marry you originally, it was you who forced me to accept it. We were never lovers, so how does this count as betrayal? Besides, you have a son now and you love your son so much. I won’t ask about your past, and I don't want to know. Since you have a child, just live your life with your child, as for what grudges you had with my father, I hope you go to him instead of torturing my sister and me!”

She knew that he had never loved herself, and since they had never loved each other, where was the betrayal?

This marriage was nothing but like a deal to her, and even if she had the heart, how would she dared to think much about?

As he reached out to her, her body stiffened. However, he only caressed her face, “So you would rather give your first time to another man than to me?”

“Vincent, I have nothing to say to that!” Leila slowly raised her head, although her face was still pale and thin, at this moment, that an inexplicable determination could be seen on it. Strong determination and calmness could be seen through her sharp eyes. “If you keep taking about the hymen incident and the video tape, I really have nothing to say. You may do whatever you want! As for this men’s clothing, it belongs to Theodore.”

That’s enough, she had humiliated herself for far too long. With his status, he could get in with any woman he wanted, right? She did not understand why he will not let go of her and the Hunter family.

“I want to choke you to death!” He replied.

Leila slightly twisted her head to avoid his touch, biting her lips and said, “Then do it.”

“If killing is not illegal, I will have killed Brian Hunter.” He said in a deep voice.

Leila was shocked, “Have you and him really gotten to that point where either one of you have to die?”

Vincent stared at her for a long time, and spat out six words, “We cannot share the same sky!” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“Vincent…” Leila exclaimed, “What kind of grudge do you have with him that made you unable to live knowing that he is still alive? Did he kill your father?”

Vincent did not speak. His thin lips pursed and his sharp eyes flashed with bloodthirsty sadness.

The look in his eyes reminded her of the countless times she had inadvertently seen the loneliness and melancholy in him.

She suddenly hesitated and felt powerless, was the reason that he did not want to share the same sky with her father was that he killed his father? Is her father a murderer? If that were the case, wouldn't he have to be shot?

“Who do you choose? Me and the Hunter family!” He asked again. “I'm asking you for the last time!”

“Vincent…” Leila opened her mouth, wanting to say that she would not choose either side. However, at this moment, as she was looking at the expression in his eyes, she could not say anything. She only pain in her heart, hurting her!

It turns out that she had never understood him. Leila could not help but felt a little bit remorse and she unconsciously clenched her fist.

“Can't you choose me?” At this moment, she really felt that he, like herself, was incomparably lonely.

There was a momentary impulse, she almost blurted out, saying that she will choose him! However, as the words were about to come out from her mouth, she still did not say anything in the end. She just opened her mouth for a while and closed it again.

Maybe it was the sound coming from the TV that made her unable to answer hi m. If he did not use such despicable means, if he did not threaten and force her, she might really choose him.

However…

“I'm sorry!” She whimpered softly.

“He's using you!” He grabbed her small hand and found that at this moment, her small hands were inhumanly cold. Other than that, this was the first time Vincent found that Leila had an incomparably soft hand that when held in his palm, no bones could be felt.

“Aren't you using me too?” She said softly, raising her shimmering eyes. “You guys can just continue fighting, I think I am powerless to choose either side, and powerless to stop either of you. What is going to happen will definitely happen, I have no influence against the outcome. Even if I say that I choose you, can that unholy hatred you speak of that is inside you disintegrate? Can you choose to let go? No! Vincent, you are not someone who will easily give up, your decision is already predetermined from the beginning. You won't give up your decision for me, or for anyone, even though I don't know where your hatred came from! And now that you've suddenly have a son, our relationship won’t work. You've humiliated me and you've tortured me, so now it’s time to let go of me. Let me go and you guys can continue to fight, I won’t pick either side!”

Leila’s tone was calm. However, when she raised her eyes and met with his eyes, Vincent inexplicably had a feeling that she was not that simple or that easy to be compromise with. In fact, she had her own believes.
