Chapter 424 He Did Not Trust Me
lt;pgt;lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;“Oh! Hi, I’m Theodore’s junior, sorry ———”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“Go away immediately! I don’t like you, Theodore is mine, so you go away now!” The girl pointed at the
door.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Leila’s mind had gone blank, she was trying to explain. The girl said: “Come on, I know you are a bad
woman. You just lingered around Theodore and wouldn’t let go. Hmph, I’m not scared! I’m specialized
in dealing with foxy woman!”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“I’m really just Theodore’s junior. I have nothing to do with him!”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“Even if you are not, you must leave now. You’re not welcome in my house!” The girl shouted, not even
listening to what Leila had said.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Leila bit her lip and nodded. She felt much better after a sleep. She got up and insisted:” I was really
sick and Theodore helped me. Don’t misunderstand him, we’d nothing!”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;The girl frowned and said coldly: “Go! I won’t get him wrong!!”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Without any choice, Leila left Theodore’s apartment.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;She was still wearing the same dress she had worn last night. Fortunately, she still had her bag.
Looking at the traffic, Leila burst into tears. She felt so lonely and helpless.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;She turned on her phone and saw a message from Vincent White, he said, Leila, whether you hate me
or blame me, I still can't believe that the child is mine!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;She deleted it and then deleted all other messages as well. This message completely broke her down.
She felt that she had nothing to do with Vincent anymore as he didn’t believe her.lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;She continued to delete the messages until she felt that she didn't have the strength to do so. He sent
a lot of messages to her, but she didn't read the rest!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;As she flipped through her contact list, she didn’t know whose place she could go to hide in order to go
through this dangerous period. She just realized that she only had a few friends. Suddenly, she saw
Arthur’s phone number. After some hesitation, she dialed the number.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“Hello? Leila? What’s up?” Arthur seemed to be still asleep.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Leila listened to his voice and realized she couldn't make a sound at all.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Her tears flowed down her face, gagging her eyes. She didn't bother to wipe them with her hands. After
a while, she finally said, "Arthur, can you help me?"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur sat up from the bed in a flash. "Leila, what's wrong with you? Speak slowly. Don't cry. Where are
you? I'll be right there. Are you upstairs?"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"I... I'm on the road!" Leila choked up and said the address. "Don't look for Vincent. Arthur, help me!"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;She called him brother. At that moment, she treated him as her family member.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Wait, I'll pick you up. Don't move! Watch out for the vehicles, I'll be there soon!" Fifteen minutes later,
the sharp sound of brakes can be heard, and the red Ferrari squealed to a halt where Leila was.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;The car door was opened, and the key was not even removed.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur tumbled down and jumped out of the car. Then he saw Leila was curling up sitting beside the
road where her figure was so small and helpless. It was heart-wrenching for him to see this!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;He walked over and called out in a low, gentle voice, "Leila?"lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;Then he bent down and took her in his arms. She burst into tears, sobbed her heart out. It was the first
time she cried so hard, and if she didn't get it out, she thought maybe she would die.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur said, "Good girl, don't cry. Tell me what happen? Vincent has bullied you, hasn’t he?"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Don't mention him!" She sobbed sadly as if she was going to die. "He doesn't believe me. He doesn't
trust me ...he doesn't trust me ..."
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;When Arthur finally heard what had happened from Leila's choking voice, he was furious. Vincent was
too arbitrary! Damn, he really wanted to give Vincent a punch.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Oh well! Everything will get better soon! Come! I'll bring you to somewhere!" Thinking that she was
now pregnant, and her relationship with Macey was already at odds, then they obviously couldn't live
together now, Arthur took Leila directly to the apartment which was located near to his company.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur moved into the apartment and looked after Leila's daily life.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Seeing how quiet she was after crying, he was helpless and didn't know what to say!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“I’ll go find Vincent and beat him up! Beat until he is awake!”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"No!" Leila shook her head. "He has nothing to do with this matter already!"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;She wanted this child. This was her first pregnancy in her life. It was her first child, her and Vincent's
child. She gave birth to this child not to win back Vincent, but to commemorate this love that she once
had.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Even though, this love that had made her willing to die for now made her heartbroken.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;She had always thought that Vincent and she could be together now, without any hard feelings.
However, he just so quickly denied her and their love.lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;Over the next few days, Leila switched off her phone. She only called her mother every day, and her
phone was turned off for the rest of the time.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;She began to eat desperately. She was throwing up as she ate but she continued to eat. She ate for
the sake of the baby in her womb.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;In the CEO room.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur looked at Vincent with an expressionless face.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Vincent with his figure straight and upright, stood in front of the French window. The intense light
outside the window enveloped him. His breath seemed to be so unreal. He looked blankly out of the
glass window at the blue sky, where birds flew past, and the sky was unrealistic quiet and still as if it
was asleep.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur put aside his emotions and said in a cold voice, "Pippa is admitted to a psychiatric hospital. The
results of the evaluation showed that she has serious depression and needs to go through a cycle of
treatment! The court date has been set after one cycle of her treatment!"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“I got it!” The voice was cold and deep.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“How long do you plan to play possum?” Arthur said with his patience well exhausted!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Vincent turned back coldly and frowned. “You’ve met Leila?”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“Yes!”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Then you know where she is?" Vincent gazed deeply at Arthur. Looking at the reproach in Arthur’s
eyes and the way he frowned in dissatisfaction, Vincent’s sight turned back to the window. His deep
eyes were like holding an ocean of bottomless feelings. He whispered painfully, "She shouldn't have
betrayed me!"lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;"Damn it! How do you know and how do you be sure that she betrayed you?"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"I have infertility!" Vincent yelled back in the same way. After he finished yelling, his eyes became
bleak.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur was shocked. “What did you say?”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;His voice was low but intensive, said: “The survival rate of my sperm is almost zero. The doctors say
my chances of having a child in my lifetime are one in a hundred million!"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Vincent closed his eyes in pain, the trauma within him once again aching as if countless poisonous
insects were chewing on his heart.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Deep inside Vincent, he also wished that the child was his own!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;But is it possible? Impossible! He was so shocked when he first saw the test results and he was
completely dumbfounded. Despair and grief flooded through him, and his heart was even more
disappointed when he knew that Leila was pregnant.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur was very shocked. The CEO's room was incredibly quiet. The air became stagnant and the
sunlight seemed to be frozen, glinting coldly on the bright glass.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;He looked at Vincent and his mind turned quickly. “Is Leila that kind of person? I don’t believe it! If she
had betrayed you, would she need to be this upset? I don’t believe that Leila is that kind of person! So
what about that one in a hundred million? It doesn’t mean there is no medical miracle!”
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Impossible! I've looked a dozens of hospitals here and abroad, there's no way they're all wrong!"
Vincent murmured in pain.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Then you just conclude that Leila's betrayal? Cuckolded you?" Arthur didn't know what had gone
wrong. But the way Vincent looked, it wasn't a lie, and he didn't have to lie.lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;Arthur was a man, so he understood his pain as a man. After a moment of contemplation, he spoke,
"Go to the hospital and check it again. If you wrong Leila, you will regret for the rest of your life!"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Stunned for a moment, Vincent hesitated for a second before may grabbed his car key and headed out.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“Hey! Where are you going?” Arthur shouted from behind.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Hospital! I'll go check!" Vincent gritted his teeth.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;He also had to know whether a medical miracle would happen to him or not, even though he knew that
maybe the result could be a great disappointment for him again.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur sighed slightly, he knew that if he said nothing and just treated Leila well, maybe in one day,
Leila would belong to him. However, he knew even that, her heart would not fully belong to him. So, he
could only bleed in his heart to accomplish her love.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;There were millions of ways to love someone. Selfless love was to wish her happiness! I loved you but
it had nothing to do with you! It was not being selfish or tying that person to your side.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Shaking his head, Arthur also left the office. He went to the shopping mall to buy some ingredients to
make soup for Leila tonight, and also the little one in her belly. That was a one in a hundred million
baby. Didn't know what an exquisite child it would be! He saluted Vincent's sperm from the bottom of
his heart. It had gone through all sorts of obstacles and won itself a chance to be born!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;And life, it's so amazing!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;When Arthur returned, Leila was boiling water in the kitchen because they were out of boiling water
already. She was afraid to drink pure water and scared that the water in the fridge too cold which would
cause uterine contraction, resulting in a miscarriage.lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;Now she was cautious all the time, afraid that the baby would be aborted.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;This was her baby, just thinking about it made her face tender. With a baby, nothing mattered anymore.
Those words that made her sad, those words spoken by Vincent, they didn't matter anymore. As long
as she had the baby, it was enough!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;The water boiled. Because she was imagining how cute the baby would look like, she accidentally got
scalded by the splashing boiling water, "Yikes..."
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;It hurt a bit!
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;“How is it? How is it? Are you okay?" Arthur hurriedly ran over. He dropped his bag on the floor,
grabbed Leila's hand and examined it. He saw there was just a small red swelling on the back of her
hand. Looking at her heartily, his care for her has shown on that handsome face. How could Vincent
suspect Leila?
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Was it really like what people said, that deep-set love would be blinded to see the truth?
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"You're back?" Only then Leila saw Arthur. In the face of such anxious concern from him, she felt warm.
"Arthur?!"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"It's good that your hand is okay. What are you thinking about and you are lost in thought? Don't do
household chores anymore. I'll boil the water before I leave the house!"
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"It's okay, I've been feeling much better these past two days!" Leila drew back her small hand that was
being held by Arthur, feeling a little embarrassed.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Arthur also realized that he had forgot his manner and immediately released her hand, said in a loud
voice, "I'll pour you some water, have a seat and rest. Let’s see my cooking skills tonight, I’ll stew some
black-bone chicken soup for you and your baby!"lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;p/gt;
lt;pgt;"Thank you!" Leila was moved to say thank you.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Silly girl, what are you thanking for! To be a friend, I have to bend over backwards to help you!" Arthur
shook his head and laughed.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;Leila didn't know what to say.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"Lexi, can I talk to you for a minute?" Arthur murmured.
lt;/pgt;
lt;pgt;"What? Please say!"lt;/pgt;
lt;p/gt;
