When he was looking at herself with an unpredictable and treacherous expression, it made her embarrassed as if she was standing in front of him stripped naked.
“Can we fall in love since we have reached a consensus.” He spoke with his bright eyes.
Such a sentence was like a shocking wave that hit Leila suddenly, and she immediately pressed her small hand on her chest as her heartbeat seemed to be so fast that it almost made her suffocate!
What did he say?
She pressed her body tightly against the elevator wall and lowered her head.
“What else do you want?” Vincent asked again and his light tone was so mysterious that Leila couldn’t figure it out.
She looked up to meet Vincent’s unpredictable handsome face and nodded her head. “Can you really do it?”
She couldn’t believe she was the only one of him. Did he know the meaning of the only one? It was a lifetime, not a quarter of an hour, not a day, a week, a month, a year but a down-to-earth lifetime!
“I hope my woman has faith in me!” Vincent’s eyes were smiling and the corner of his lips was raised.
“Alright! I’ll believe you for the last time!” Her soft voice showed determination and shyness. “Mr. White…”
Finally, she called him Mr. White again!
Vincent sighed in his heart as it wasn’t that easy!
The lift rose to the highest floor where Vincent walked in front while Leila followed behind. This was not the first time she came to the luxurious president’s office as she had delivered clothes for her sister last time. Thinking of that time, Leila felt sad as she wondered how her sister was doing these days!
“Huh? Vincent, Leila, why are you here together?” They met Arthur.
“I’m going to have lunch with you at noon before sending you away!” Vincent said in a deep voice.
“What?” Arthur immediately shouted, “My dear Mr. President, you are so cute that you are in a hurry to kick me out before I have even left?”
“Don’t you have to leave sooner or later?” Vincent raised his eyebrows.
“Fine, you are such a person who forget about your friend after settling your stuff. Well, I will definitely eat the most expensive one for lunch to spend most of your money!” Arthur said while winking at Leila, “Leila, how is it going on? Is it all ok?”
“Are you going to leave?” Leila was a little stunned when she heard their conversation and knowing that Arthur was going to leave. “Where are you going?”
“Yes!” Arthur nodded. “Don’t miss me too much, I’m going to the United States for six months so I won’t be able to see you for six months!”
“That long?” Leila sighed. “Why are you leaving?”
Leila shivered when Vincent’s eyes narrowed abruptly and his sharp gaze swept towards her. Did she say something wrong? What was that expression on his face?
Arthur understood Vincent’s sight, instead, he smiled even more ambiguously.
“Vincent, it is normal that Leila is reluctant to let go of me! There are not many good brothers like me! Is that right, Leila? Hahaha…”
“Are you looking for a fight?” Vincent’s cold words made Arthur’s face to stiffen.
Arthur then squinted his eyes as if annoyed looking at Vincent and said, “I just know that you have such an ability to ruin the atmosphere! I’m trying to give in to you but you don’t appreciate it, damn it! You are the one who looks for troubles! And you are the one who takes the undeserved gain for granted!”
“I find you are really too laid back!” Vincent snorted coldly then walked towards the president’s office. “Don’t eat and get on the plane right now to go to the United States if you have nothing to do!”
“Are you kicking me out? I won’t go! You are so heartless. You don’t easily have friends in this world like me who is so generous and loyal. You such a heartless bastard, and you’re pissing me off!”
Leila laughed as she felt they were so childish seeing these two men bickering.
Clara greeted Leila with a light smile as she knew her from the newspaper which had made Leila become the focus point of the F City while Leila returned a smile too.
Leila shyly lowered her head when Vincent took her hand and was about to enter the office. Standing at the front desk of the secretariat, Arthur felt comforted in his heart as he looked at the shy Leila.
A saying floated in his mind suddenly, “To love someone is to unconditionally want her to be happy! Even if he was not standing beside her, it would be enough as long as she was happy!”
His starry eyes were attracted by her slender and slim figure where there was a slightly shy smile on Leila’s face that made her look extremely feminine, yet, her sweet smile on her fair skin released a clean and natural aura, just like a natural jade which was clear and free from impurities. She was held by Vincent’s hand into the president’s office and the door was closed.
He had seen many beautiful and enchanting women but no one could be like Leila who had a natural temperament that made people feel comfortable.
“What are you looking at?” Clara’s hand reached out and shook in front of him to break his daze.
Back to his consciousness, Arthur playfully curled up his lips, “Sister, what is the saying? That’s right! A fair lady is a gentleman’s desire!”
Clara shook her head, “I have a saying that you should not covet your friend’s wife!”
“Hahaha…”Arthur laughed wildly. “Sister, I find that you are also very good at spoiling the atmosphere! Well, what a pity, my fragile heart! I’d better go and lick my bloody wounds alone! It’s so cold!”
The door was closed after entering the president’s office and Vincent said, “Just find a seat, wait for me to have dinner together later after I review some documents.”
“Hum!” Leila nodded and glanced at Vincent secretly whose eyes were also looking at her. Vincent winked at Leila and his bright eyes with his charming curve of his lips made Leila embarrassed and panicked that she immediately turned her head away and her face was blushing. Oh my god! She found herself blushing more and more easily.
However, in contrast to Leila’s panic, Vincent’s corner of his lips was raised. Leila could always release a shy aura that was special about her.
Vincent’s glittering gaze dropped on the woman with her head down and his starry eyes were filled with obsession with an uncovered primitive desire while Leila’s soft red lips seemed to emit a temptation for no reason and her long, slender eyelashes fluttering like feathers that made Vincent want to kiss her for a moment, to savor her sweetness, to…
A subtle atmosphere spread in the quiet CEO’s office and the moment Leila’s face blushed, her gaze met the fiery affection in Vincent’s eyes, how could she not feel that inexplicable flame as a woman?
She was panicked and she turned her face slightly as she gasped for air.
However, Vincent hooked around her waist suddenly, holding her jaw with one hand and pressing the back of her head with the other hand and to Leila’s surprise, his thin lips came down and kissed Leila’s slightly opened red lips.
By the time she felt the touch of the hot lips, Leila’s face was hot and she wanted to escape but a big palm behind her head prevented her from doing so and there was a force pressing her forward to hotly entwine with Vincent. Taking advantage of Leila’s panic, Vincent’s tongue entered her mouth flexibly, exploring the sweetness in Leila’s mouth and not wanting to let her go.
However, Vincent’s phone rang at this time which broke the ambiguity between him and Leila. He gasped raggedly and wanted to curse again.
“Answer the phone!” Leila whispered, then quickly walked to the sofa and sat down. Her face was even blushed and her heart was about to jump out.
Vincent took out the phone, walked to his chair, frowned at the number before he answered, “Mum!”
It was his mother!
Leila’s heart thudded again as she was scared about his scary mother, and she hadn’t forgotten his mother’s hostility towards herself. When she thought about her father-in-law, Eric’s death, she was in a struggle again.
Could she and Vincent get to the end?
“Did she call you? In this case, let your assistant send Owen back. Mum, Miyamoto won’t let him go as Owen is his child and this time he’s here, I’ll explain to him personally! It is the right choice to give Owen back to him!”
“I hope you don’t interfere in that matter. I have no other intention but I just don’t want to involve the innocents. Alright, don’t get angry as you’re not well, and that’s all!” Vincent hung up the phone after he finished speaking, his eyes glanced at Leila subconsciously who was looking at him too.
Leila became worried and boundless of annoyance troubled her heart.
She could sense what his mother said, and the last sentence must have been about herself, or at least related to herself. She raised her smile and looked at him far away. “Mr. White, does your mother hate me ?”
Vincent was stunned and he immediately said, “She needs time!”
Although he was right, Leila was still very nervous inside. “Don’t you hate me?”
“Hate you for?” Vincent’s dark eyes stared at her little sad face for an instant and found that she was really prone to sadness. “Where is your courage? Show me the courage you had when you cursed Pippa at the hospital just now!”
“View your documents!” She gave him a sour smile.
“Hum! I’ll deal with the official business first!” Vincent sat down.
Leila turned extraordinarily quiet like she was about to melt from scorching sunlight.
After freezing for an unknown amount of time, she suddenly raised her eyes and looked straight.
She stayed calm and collected while looking at Vincent secretly who was at work. He was calm and expressionless, yet, his focused look was even more handsome and attractive enough, no wonder others would say men at work were the most attractive.
Vincent was looking at the paperwork when he glanced at Leila who was looking at himself, he raised the corner of his lips, “Why are you secretly looking at me?”
The words instantly made Leila blush, and she was stunned and dumbfounded for a moment, “I…”
Putting down the documents, Vincent glanced at Leila deeply which made Leila feel pressured and his low voice rang out, “Come here.”
Leila turned embarrassed immediately and she lowered her eyes as her thoughts were so confused that she forgot what she was going to say and only after a while, she said under his gazing, “Just deal with your business!”
“I say to come over!” Vincent raised his eyebrows, staring at her playfully then said, “Little liar, I catch you sneaking a look at me and I tell you to come over. Don’t you hear me?”
“I’m not going over there!” Leila sat on the sofa, trying to meet his bottomless eyes and spoke out in a normal tone with a hint of shyness.
Narrowing his eyes, Vincent’s expression was somewhat helpless, “You’re not coming over because you are asking me to come over there?”
