She knew Vincent very well so sometimes she could actually guess it even if he didnât clarify the matter. Without saying much, she put the phone at her ear and waited for Vincent to finish dialing the phone number.
âHello, may I know is Leila Hunter here?!â Normally everyone should be staying at home at this time since it was the time that most of the people had their dinner.
âLeila was not back. She stays in her own house. Who are you?â Mabel Ross asked.
âOh! I am her friend. Her phone is off, may I know that do you have any other way to contact her?â
âYou can call her home telephone, the phone number is...â Leilaâs mother, Mabel told her the phone number of Vincentâs villa.
Pippa Russell put down the phone and looked at him amusedly, âDo you want to make a call to your house?â
Vincentâs face was somber and frowning. He took out his phone and made a call to Macey Hunter by himself.
âIs Leila staying with you now?â
âWhy should I tell you?â Macey hung up rudely.
âHoly shit!â Vincent swore and hung up the phone. Then, he sat down on the sofa in anger.
âIs that the girl who tried clothes at my store last time?!â Pippa thought for a while and smiled.
âHow do you know that?â He actually didn't want to tell her more about that but it was such a strange thing that she could guess it out.
âI just guess randomly! That girl looks good but she was Brian Hunterâs daughter. What do you think, Vincent? I think that the girl is really innocent!â
Pippa Russell shrugged and responded to him with a smiling face.
âIt's none of your business. I will not change my words. If you agree to get married to me, I will divorce her and marry you now!â He looked at Pippa.
Pippa smiled faintly with a playful tone, âAlright, you go and divorce Leila to save her, I am waiting for you to go through the formalities!â
âIt's not a joke!â he spoke in a serious manner.
âJust forget about it, a man like you is not suitable to be a husband for me. Even if you are Owenâs dad and you can give him a complete family, I will not marry you. This is because you have too many evil factors. I'm afraid that I would accidentally be blown up by you if I married you, and then I would be like in the hell!â
âI'm leaving!â Vincent shrugged and rolled his eyes. âYou should get off work early, Owen was handed to the nanny!â
âOkay!â Pippa waved her hand.
Vincent walked out.
âVincentââ Pippa shouted again.
âHuh?â Vincent turned around.
âYou have taken it seriously~!â she said.
âNo!â Vincent was in an extremely calm, âYou are right that I have no heart, you will die if you marry me!â
Vincent called Leila in the afternoon but he didnât expect that her phone was being shut down. He was a little worried since Leila was staying with Macey. When he thought of the scene in which she almost got into trouble in the bar last time...
âThis damn woman!â Vincent was getting mad and wanted to throw his phone. He drove through the streets all the way to find Leila.
Leila woke up in the mist, the only thing that she remembered after breaking up with Macey at KFC was that she went to the cinema alone. Then, she bought a ticket and went in. There were only a few people in the cinema. She sat on her seat in silent tears but afterwards she fell into a drowsy sleep.
When she woke up, she frowned and looked at the strange place, she seemed to be lying on a straw mat. The light was very dim, she could see people but they didnât look clear. Leila saw a man who wore a black mask in the mist and he was looking at her gloomily. Her hands and feet were tied up tightly.
The man looked at her, his voice seemed to have changed deliberately so it was coarse and a bit weird.
âFinally, you woke up. I thought I would have to wait for a very long time?â The man leaned close to her, having an ambiguous smile in his pupils which made him seem wicked and full of enmity.
Leila looked at him in shock and struggled to sit up. At that moment, a strong sense of dizziness struck her. Her hands were tied up, she was not able to move and she was startled. âYou, what are you doing?â
âUh! Who made the hickey on your body? Vincent White?â A wicked smile appeared on the man's face, meanwhile, layers of dark light flashed across his eyes.
âIt's none of your business!â Leila glared at him. When she recalled the scene before her coma, she asked the man in shock, âYou are the one who brought me out of the theatre?â
The man in the mask tilted his mouth, âNo one told you that a girl should not go around by herself especially to the theatre alone? Donât you know that there will be rapes here?â
âWhat do you want to do?â Leila struggled but still she couldn't get rid of the rope.
The man snorted disdainfully, âI have done that if I wanted to do just now, do I have to wait till you wake up?â
âYou bind me for what? What is your purpose?â Leila looked at him anxiously. This man looked very young and she predicted that he had not reached 30 years old. His voice had changed deliberately which made him sound like an old man. However, his lips colour, hair, ugh, it seemed like he was wearing a wig, it was a bit long and close to his cheek.
âI donât want to let Vincent be happy. My only purpose is I want you to divorce him!â
âHow do you know we are married?â Leila was surprised to hear that and a flash of doubt appeared in her eyes.
âI know much more than that. Vincent is my enemy. I don't want him to be happy. So, are you going to divorce him?â He put his arms around her waist suddenly and squeezed her to lay on the straw mat under him.
âLet go of me...â Leila was startled in the dim light. Then, she struggled and shouted.
âDon't move!â The man clasped Leilaâs waist tightly to prevent her from moving.
âLet, let go of me...â Leila frowned and she almost couldnât breathe under his pressure. She could only use her legs to block him and kick him away but her feet were tied up so she couldn't bend her legs at all.
âShit, didn't I just tell you to stop moving?â The man snarled hoarsely, a flash of coldness flashed in his eyes, âI tell you, if you don't leave Vincent, I will let you die in the worst way next time. Uh! No! No! No! I won't let you die! I will let you be raped by several men in turn!â
âLet go of me... Um...â Leila was nervous to push him away. However, when he lifted her shirt and slid his hand in, she was stunned for a moment and her eyes widened in creep.
âUnderstand?â
Leila was trembling in horror and she responded instinctively, âYes, Yes, I know!â
âWhat do you know?â
âLeave Vincent!â Leila repeated her answer softly. âYou let me go, I will leave him for sure!â
The man snorted and his evil eyes were lightly mocking, âDo you think that I am stupid? If I let you go, you will leave him so obediently?â
Leila was terrified, âThen what do you expect me to do?â
Of course it would beâ
The man squinted his eyes and he slid his big palms into her bra along with her inner clothes.
Leila couldn't help but tremble helplessly. Deep wrath appeared in her eyes, âI will leave him, let me go! I actually wanted to leave him but he didn't allow me to do so!â
âWhat?â The man's eyes flashed and he sneered at her, âDo you think that you are such a beautiful fairy which made Vincent refuse to let you go?â
âReally!â Leila shouted in hurry. âActually he is not sincere to marry me. We don't love each other. I always want to leave him. Can you please let me go?â
The man was taken aback by the news, his evil eyes swept over Leilaâs horrified face doubtfully and he asked her incomprehensibly, âNot loving each other?â
âNot!â Leila gave him a real answer. âReally not. I know that you don't want to bully me. I won't tell anyone what happened today so please let me go. I have not seen your face so I won't call the police. Please let me go!â
Leila felt that this person knew her through her instinct, otherwise, he would not wear a mask.
âLet you go? Won't call the police? Remember what you have said, otherwise it won't be that simple for the next time.â The man raised his eyebrows, it seemed that he was thinking about the true meaning of her words. After that, he hit her on the back of her neck with his hand of a sudden.
âAhââ Leila cried out and fainted.
When she woke up, she didnât know what time it was but the rope on her hand was untied and her wrist was full of strangling marks. If the strangle mark on her wrist and the feeling of pain on the back of her neck werenât there to remind her, she really thought that it was just a dream.
What kind of kidnapping was that? Not asking for money, not asking for sex but just asking her to leave Vincent!
Leila didnât care anymore! Her only thought at that moment was to escape from there. That was the only idea in her mind at that time.
Leila stood up and she searched for her bag subconsciously. When she found out that her bag was lying at the side, she walked over and picked it up immediately. Then, she looked for her phone and turned on the flashlight to illuminate her belongings. Just as she lowered her head, she saw a button was located next to her bag on the ground. Leila picked it up without thinking much.
She staggered through an old low wall, stumbled, and ran out of the desolate old house with lots of weeds growing in it.
It seemed like a dilapidated factory in the suburbs that was demolished. There was a big âdemolitionâ on the wall. She had no idea how long it had been abandoned there.
When Leila ran out of the place, she kept walking out. After she went out, she found that it was a long street with only a street lamp. She didn't know about the time at that moment. When she ran to the street light, she looked at her phone closely and saw lots of notifications of messages.
It was from Vincent and also from her mother.
Leila sighed inexplicably but she did not call them back. She waved and got a taxi, âSir, NT Mountain Villa area!â
Soon, the car arrived at the villa area.
Leila asked the taxi driver to wait for her and she got out of the car. There was only a small lamp in the lobby. She knew that Vincent was not back.
She went upstairs and took Arthurâs clothes. Then, she turned around and went downstairs again. She didn't plan to live there but going back to Pearl Community.
She had no idea what did Vincent meant by calling her but she didn't call him back. At that moment, she was very tired! Very exhausted!
That person kidnapped her and he was neither asking for money, nor sex. He just wanted her to leave Vincent. She could not figure out his intention.
She heard from the guard before she left the villa, âMadam, it has been so late, do you still want to go out?â
âYes!â Leila nodded.
Just as Leila got in the car, her phone rang. The call was from Vincent. Leilaâs heart did a flip but still, she took her phone and accepted the call, âHello!â
âGo back home now!â Vincent said in his deep voice.
âI'm on my way home!â Leila replied softly.
âGo back to the villa now, where are you going at midnight?â

Predestined Marriage ï¤Chapter 1718: The End âIââ Leila was speechless for a while. How did he know that she had come back to the villa? Did the guard tell him that she came back just now?
âGo home now, do you hear me?â
âI'm going back to Pearl Community. That's it. Good night, Mr. White.â Leila hung up before he could say anything and she took a deep breath. She became more anxious. The person asked her to leave Vincent, but in this current situation, how would it be possible? And also, who was that person?
