Chapter 786
"Hehe, you're right! How could I forget? If that's the case, then we'll be in great trouble! So, tell me why then." "How would I know? If I knew, I would've taken her place already!"This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Oh, Luna, I've caught you! You like Master Trevor. I'm going to tell Miss Atlas that you like Master Trevor!"
"I'm not! You're the one who likes him! I'm going to tell Miss Atlas that you're a little pervert! Haha!"
"Hey, stop playing around! Hurry up! Miss Atlas likes tulips. We have to plant them this autumn! We have to empty that area!"
When she saw the two girls leaving, Victoria initially wanted to walk out and greet them. Instead, she squatted down and hid from them. She rubbed her shoes, her face blushing red.
What was it?
Was there something special about her? Didn't she also have a pair of eyes and a mouth? Could it be that she was easier to bully?
Victoria went to the rabbit cage and quietly poked the bunny with a stick. She began to daydream, filling her mind with what happened that day and what words were exchanged.
Victoria's heart, which used to be as still as water, was suddenly disturbed by ripples.
Wasn't he a playboy? He couldn't control himself outside yet he never brought a woman home in a span of three years? This was incredible! How could he stand it? And it wasn't like he could just drop by Korea from time to time. Even during his visits, he was just there to see her and not to do that!
"He would play by the rules?" Victoria laughed to herself. If he had been rule-abiding, she wouldn't have been here! If what they said were true, why would he have done such a terrible thing to her when they first met?
He was obviously lustful!
As she poked the
rabbit, Victoria inadvertently saw the scar on her wrist which sent her into a daze.
She initially hated him a lot, but she couldn't stop herself from being moved when it came to this matter.
She rested her head on her arms as what had happened in the past few days flooded her mind. A smile unconsciously made its way to her face.
"He even wanted to break up with me when I visited Alaric. I didn't expect that he would be the bigger man in this matter..." She thought to herself. Victoria grinned as she gently stroked the scabs on her arm. "It seems you're not as useless as I thought!"
It looked like he still had some merits! In a situation like this, he never blamed or despised her. Instead, he took revenge for her, which was very pleasing to know about!
She suddenly remembered that he secretly went to the backyard at noon. When she went to find him, he had even reached out to cover her eyes, an indication of how considerate he was. This reminded her of the first time they met.
He was still that ruthless man! He was even more vicious than Shirley!
He was probably behind that wolfhound ordeal. He wouldn't be blamed if the man was bitten by the dogs! He didn't do it in the backyard, nor did he do it himself. Was he being considerate of her?
Judging from his attitude toward this scum, he must be very concerned about her!
He acted like a real man! He didn't vent his anger at her because of what happened. He gave in to her and was much better than those useless guys who only knew how to beat their wives when they met with problems!
"I wonder how much you care, and to what extent?" She murmured.
Suddenly, Victoria was graced by an idea! 'Til give you a test tonight!" She uttered to herself. If he was a real man, then she, as a woman, could also be flexible about things!
Trevor was in the office discussing the evidence and testimony with Holger.
"Are there no clues at all?" Trevor asked.
Holger shook his head.
"It's just as we thought! That person has already covered everything we thought of! The only thing we can check now is the bank card! However, it looks like an empty card. The money in it was transferred a few times before it was finally wired in from an overseas ID. Moreover, the records were from a few years back. This was obviously a means for money laundering. Perhaps this person has many cards with fixed amounts like this. However, the origins couldn't be traced..." Holger explained.
"She's just a woman, and an ordinary designer. Who could she possibly offend? How could someone do such horrible things to her?"
Trevor clenched his fist and pounded the table until it shook beneath him. He mumbled to himself, "Who could it be?"
If he ever caught her, he would definitely let her have a taste of her own medicine!
After thinking for a brief moment, Trevor suddenly spoke.
"There's no way this can be easily covered up like this! Hanson was a breakthrough this person could find him, it must know someone related to him or often showed up in places where he would go! Investigate Hanson and find out everything you can about him! Tell the hospital to make sure that he doesn't die! Also, check whether he's been disabled or not. Otherwise, incapacitate him again! Don't give him painkillers. Just let him suffer, so that he'll remember it till the day he dies!" Trevor demanded.
"Got it!" Holger replied.
"Inform me as soon as possible if there's any news! Go to the police station and get this thing under control. I don't want to hear any rumors about this case..." Trevor ordered.
"Don't worry! I'll take care of it!" Holger answered.
Trevor turned down all his social
activities just for Victoria. On the
way home, he was still thinking about this matter. After pondering thoroughly about things, he still thought that her relationship was simple and that the only possible person who had a dispute with her was Anthony. However, as long as he still had some conscience in him, he wouldn't do such things to hurt her! Moreover, he was tied down by his family and didn't even have the courage to take revenge on him. None of these made any sense.
This meant that the mastermind could easily come from his side of things. Who would benefit most if she was hurt and their relationship was ruined?
It didn't take long for him to know the answer - it was Selena!
However, that was impossible. She was so frail that she couldn't barely get up to see the sun. Walking a few steps was already strenuous for her. How could a thought like this even pass through her mind? Moreover, she had never met Victoria. Even without Victoria, he still wouldn't be with her.
It was pointless for her to do this!
Additionally, as far as he remembered, this gentle cousin of his whom he grew up with would always take hits as she let others bully her. How could she hurt another woman like this?
Trevor clenched then loosened his fists over and over again. His mind was a complete mess.
When he finally got him, it was already dark out. However, the house was quiet.
"Master Trevor, you're back! Would you like to eat now?" One of the servants asked as he greeted Trevor.
"Has Vicky eaten?" Trevor asked while he removed his coat.
"Miss Atlas said that she had no appetite and didn't want to eat. I only served her a glass of milk!" The servant replied.
Trevor was about to turn to leave when he suddenly stopped in his tracks. She had no appetite? What was going on? How could this little glutton have no appetite?
Although she had stopped wanting to leave the room, she still had three meals a day. Had she been reminded of something because she saw the rascal earlier that day?
