Chapter 35
“If something happens to Vince, I certainly won’t let you off!” Veins were bulging on Glen’s forehead.
“I’ve already said this two years ago—you no longer have any connections to the Coleman Family, so
why are you bothering Vince again? Will you only be appeased when he’s dead?”
“Can you really sever blood ties?” As the taste of blood spread in her mouth, Victoria wiped a corner of
her lips to discover that it was injured. “If you regret birthing me so much, then you should’ve aimed
somewhere else back then.”
She even thought that if her father knew of her suicide attempt, he might care about her at least a little.
Evidently, she had overestimated herself.
Glen gulped for breath as a twisted expression appeared on his face. However, fearing that someone
might overhear, he lowered his voice and growled, “Vince is so good to you. If you have the smallest bit
of conscience, stop dragging him down!”
Hearing that, Victoria grabbed the fabric of her clothes, slightly tilting her head back to stop her tears
from falling.
If she wasn’t scared that Christian might turn his wrath on the Coleman Family, she would’ve died
earlier instead of living in such suffering and humiliation.
However, to her father, she was only a burden!
“If you’re looking to Vince just for money, I can give you that.” She was still the daughter he used to
pamper, after all. When he saw her like that, Glen softened a little.
He opened his briefcase and signed a check before passing it to Victoria. “I’ll give you three hundred
thousand first. Send your ount number to my secretary, then I’ll have him send you two million.
Don’t get involved with the Coleman Family anymore.”
“Three hundred thousand?” Victoria took the check and looked down at the number written on it. She
smiled. “That’s equivalent to six years of my sry.”
Glen put his pen back in his briefcase, saying, “As long as you keep to yourself, this sum of money
should be enough tost you all your life. I won’t hold a grudge against you for ruining my partnership
today, but don’t you dare appear in front of me again—”
Rip!
Victoria smiled as she looked at him. She tore the check in pieces and threw it in his face.
“Partnership? What partnership? The one with Christian?”
“You—” Glen was jumping in rage. He had only started talking when he was interrupted by Victoria’s
sneering. “Why is it my fault that Christian refuses to partner with you? Just because I hurt the woman
he loves, and he hates me now?”
Her smile was deste. “Hahaha! You all say that I hurt Be, but why doesn’t anyone believe that I’ve
been wrongly used? Just because Be is a gentle and generous person, but I’m a shy girl from
a rich family? Huh? You feel injustice, but what about me? Who would take pity on me?”
Her mind was in a mess, and she didn’t even know what she was saying. She only knew that some
things had been suppressed in her heart for so long that they almost suffocated her.
Why did everyone me her?
Why did everyone pin her as the criminal?
What crimes had she actuallymitted?
She never did anything, but the love of her life broke her legs. She was thrown into prison for two
years, and she had to stay in Delta Club to work a humiliating job. Wasn’t she the one who was
suffering the most injustice?
Victoria used to be a wretch, but she had never behaved like that in front of Glen. He was so mad that
his face went red. He grabbed at his chest, seeming as though he couldn’t breathe.
Seeing that, Victoria wanted to just ignore him so that he could experience for himself what it felt like to
be abandoned by his own family.
However, it was exactly because she knew too well the feeling of being abandoned by family that she
couldn’t do the same thing.
“Where’s the medicine?” Victoria suppressed the raging emotions in her heart, walking toward Glen as
she asked.
Glen’s heart disease was working up, and every breath he took was heavy and thick. Even so, he still
said stubbornly, “It’s… It’s none of your business!”
“Is it in your briefcase like it was in the past?” Victoria ignored his rejection and snatched his briefcase.
She flipped through it, produced the medicine, then fed it into his mouth.
The medicine bottle wasn’t too big, and it would’ve been more convenient to put it in his suit pocket.
However, Glen felt that it would crease the suit and affect his image, so he insisted on putting it in his
briefcase.
Glen took some time to recover himself, but still he treated Victoria unkindly.
“It was inevitable that you appeared in front of me today, so I am not the one to me here. In the
future, as long as you don’te to me on purpose, I won’t go to you either. It only gives me pain.”
Unwilling to stay behind and be humiliated, Victoria left right away after she said that.
However, perhaps because themotion was too loud at the stairwell, Victoria found quite a number
of people at the entrance when she went out, trying to peer inside with their necks stretched.
When they saw her walking out, the people saw the obvious outline of a palm on her face. They smiled
awkwardly and scattered.
Glen also came out soon after, but he didn’t even spare Victoria a nce as he went to the elevator
section to wait for the elevator.
Unexpectedly, when the doors to the elevator opened, Be wheeled onto the scene in her wheelchair.
“What a coincidence, Mr. Coleman.”
“A coincidence, indeed.” Glen smiled warmly. “I received some decent supplements recently, so do tell
me when you’re free so that I can have them delivered to you.”
“I shall thank you in advance, then, Mr. Coleman.” Be nced at Victoria and said smilingly,
“However, Victoria just got discharged from the hospital, so she is in ill health. Do you think it’s more
suitable for those supplements to be used on her?”
“She severely injured your leg, so she has no right to use those supplements.” The smile disappeared
from Glen’s face, and it was reced with a frown as he continued, “I’ll get someone to deliver the
supplements to you. I still have something to attend to, so I’ll be going now.”
He passed by her and entered the elevator.
“Victoria works here. Won’t you talk to her for a bit before leaving?” Be tried to hold him back with her
innocent behavior.
Glen pressed the button to close the doors, pretending not to hear her question.
Be watched the doors of the elevator slowlye to a close, then curved her lips as she turned with
the wheelchair to face Victoria. Sheined, “Mr. Coleman is a good man, so why is he so cruel
when ites to you? I already said I don’t me you, but Mr. Coleman still…” She sighed.
“There’s only the two of us here. You don’t have to put on an act anymore, Miss Spritz.” Victoria looked
at Be coldly, feeling more like a fool as time ticked by. She had thought her enemy was her friend.
“Put on an act?” Be sighed and said helplessly, “Victoria, even though you did this to me, I really
don’t me—”
Victoria interrupted her, saying, “We both know how it actually yed out back then. Miss Spritz, don’t
you feel disgusted when you put on such fake acts?”novelxo fast update
“We both know?” Be slowly pronounced the sybles, then smiled.
Her smile was a little eerie. It looked like either a smile of mockery or of glee. Victoria felt goosebumps
as difort spread throughout her entire body. “Miss Spritz, is there anything else? If not, I’ll leave
right now.”
“I’m here to deliver your medicine.” Be took out a tube of ointment. “I recall that you have a bruise on
your leg, so you should apply some of this. I don’t know if this ointment can help with the swelling on
your face, though.”

Victoria lowered her head to look at the ointment without taking it. It was something Be so ‘kindly’
delivered, so she didn’t dare use it.
“There’s no need to be so shy. Take it.” Be stuffed the ointment in Victoria’s hands. She nced at
the mark on Victoria’s face and said worriedly, “Who did this? By the size of the palm, it looks like a
man did it.”
She seemed to have thought of something as she suddenly covered her mouth, saying in surprise, “C-
Could it be that Mr. Coleman did it? He’s such a saint, and he would even worry for children in the
mountain areas who can’t go to school. How could he hit his own daughter with such force?
