always felt disliked by him for some reason. But he’s good friends with Al,
so maybe it’s just my imagination.
West was at a loss for words and spoke up for her, “Al’s drunk and might
not even remember what he said when he wakes up. Why do you have to
take it so seriously?” After he said that, he giggled and looked toward
udia. “Plus, you’re also a man, so you can’t be as meticulous as udia
when taking care of Al. I think we should send him to her ce.”
Norwood did not say anything further and looked at West with his dark
gaze. “I said, send him to my ce. If you’re worried, you can stay at my
ce to take care of him.”
At that, West argued, “Norwood, why are you-”
“It’s fine, West. Let’s just go with Norwood’s idea and send Al to his ce.”
udia smiled. “Norwood is more mature than us, so it’d be better if he
takes care of Al tonight. I wasn’t thinking straight earlier.”
Chapter 29 I Can’t Understand You
Once she finished her words, she gave Norwood a kind smile, but inside,
she was furious.
Norwood was one of ric’s best friends, so she did not want to offend
him, as doing so would only make things hard for herself. Naturally, she
would not hinder herself like this.
Following that, everyone helped ric to Norwood’s home. Once they
finally helped the drunken man settle down, Norwood said, “It’s the middle
of the night, and it’s not appropriate for a young woman like you to stay
with three men. West, send her home.”
West was dumbfounded. “But didn’t you say that we can stay over to take
care-
Before he could finish, udia interrupted him. “West, let’s go. Norwood’s
right. It’s not appropriate for me to stay here.”
While scratching his head, West sent her home ordingly without

another word.
After sending udia home, he plopped onto the couch at about 2.00AM.
When he saw Norwooding out of the room, he asked, “How’s Al? Is he
doing okay?”
Norwood grabbed a bottle of cold water from the fridge and drank it
before setting it down. “He seems fine. He hasn’t woken up.”
“Cool.” West felt relieved but soon thought of something and pouted.
“Norwood, I can’t seem to understand what you were thinking tonight. You
knew udia likes Al, and Al likes her back, but why did you stop us from
bringing him to her ce?”
While sweeping his gaze across West, Norwood replied, “If your brain is still
intact, you wouldn’t think of sending a married man to a single woman’s
home.”
“So, what if we did? It’s not like you don’t know what’s going on with Al. He
Chapter 29 I Can’t Understand You
and Victoria aren’t exactly married anyway.”
Norwood stared deeply at West and questioned, “How do you know that?”
After a scoff, West replied, “Of course, I know. Let’s not talk about anything
else but what happened tonight. You called her and said Al was drunk,
right? Then, you asked her toe over, but what happened? Did she
appear? I didn’t even see her shadow.”

When mentioning this matter, Norwood felt confused. When he suggested
Victoriae over, her attitude did not sound like she was unwilling to do
so, so why did she not show up?
The truth was, while West was sending udia home, Norwood phoned
Victoria again. This time, it took him two to three calls before reaching her.
Then, he noticed her voice had turned cold, and her attitude was
“What’s the matter?”
Chapter 29 I Can’t Understand You
While he was surprised by her sudden change in attitude, Norwood
seemed to have caught on to something and asked, “Did youe over?
What did you see?”
The other side was silent for a moment before speaking up again, “I didn’t
head over. Since you’re with him, please take good care of him.” After
saying that, she hung up.
At first, he thought Victoria was a relentless woman, but it took him a while
before he finally realized the meaning behind her words and began
analyzing what had happened.
If Victoria did not head out as she said, she would have asked about what
she ‘should have seen‘ when he asked her that question instead of
keeping quiet. Also, she would not have said she never went out in such a
tone.
When he returned to his senses, he heard West stillining about
her.

“How can such a cold womanpare to udia? udia is Al’s savior
and almost gave up her life to save him back then. The scar from that
incident is still on her hand. If I were Al, I would marry her.”
“Are youbining favor with feelings?”
“Why can’t I? udia is so pretty. Any man would fall in love with her, let
alone a man she saved. So, what if I mixed them up?”
At that, Norwood did not intend to argue with him and returned to his
room.
The long night passed.
When ric awoke the next day, he felt a dull pain in his head. Even his
ability to think had turned sluggish as he looked at his unfamiliar
surroundings and sat up.

“You’re awake.” Norwood ced a ss of warm water before him. “Drink
up.”
Seeing that it was him, ric felt a little disappointed but also relieved. He
pursed his lips before finishing the ss of water in one go.
After he finished, he held the ss in his hand while frowning. Moments
“Have you forgotten? You were drunk, so West and I brought you here.”
ric was dissatisfied with that answer and frowned, but he did not say
anything. Since he did not speak up, Norwood did not say anything either
and simply stared at him. As his good friend, he was eager to see how
long ric could hold in his question.
Like how Norwood envisioned, ric looked up at him after not hearing
what he wanted to hear. Something was concealed in his eyes as he
parted his thin lips to ask, “What happened next?”

Norwood answered seriously, “What happened next? Nothing.”
ric stared at him with his dark eyes upon hearing that.

At that moment, Norwood seemed to have suddenly remembered
something and said, “That’s right. She came.”
“She?” When ric heard that, he perked up his ears, and his previously
dimmed eyes suddenly brightened a little.
“Yes. She said she wanted to look after you, but you asked me to bring you
here, so I did.”
ric frowned. “When did you be so obedient?”
“I have no choice but to listen to you.” Norwood exasperatedly added,
“After all, bringing a grown man like you to her home will affect her image.”
Hearing that, ric finally realized something was amiss. “Who is the ‘she‘
