Chapter 98

    Chapter 98


    Earlier, Victoria and udia had made a verbal agreement because both


    sides had something to gain. However, based on the current situation,


    their rtionship would deteriorate due to this incident. Regardless of


    whether Victoria pushed her or not, udia would likely me her for


    everything that happened. It seemed impossible to live in peace with


    each other in the future.

    Most importantly, after this incident, Victoria realized that she needed to


    be cautious of udia. udia was far different from what she had


    imagined. At first, Victoria thought she was just pretending to be a


    delicatedy, which was no big deal. After all, everyone wanted to


    maintain a good image in front of others. However, if beneath her guise of


    delicacy was a malicious heart that plotted to harm others, then it was


    not a simple matter anymore.


    Thinking of this, Victoria said to Summer, “Don’t worry. I will protect myself.


    Besides, she wanted to harm me this time, but she ended up harming

    herself.”


    “That’s true.” Summer nodded. “It’s satisfying to see someone’s evil n


    backfire on them.”


    “Yeah.”


    As they talked, a waiter ced a chocte molten cake on the table.


    Seeing the second serving of dessert, she was surprised. “Oh my g od!


    When did you sneakily order another one while I wasn’t looking? Did you


    not listen to the doctor’s advice, Victoria? You can’t eat anymore.”


    “I know. I’ll just have a few more bites.”


    “No, you just had a giant brownie with ice cream.”


    “Then just one bite.” Victoria tried to bargain.

    After having lunch, the two of them went shopping at the mall and didn’t


    return home untilte.

    Victoria had turned on silent mode on her phone all day and only turned it


    off when she got home. The first thing she saw was several messages


    from Yasmin about work, so she replied to them one by one before exiting


    the conversation. Only then did she notice that ric had also sent her a


    few messages on WhatsApp.


    The first one read, ‘Where did you go?”


    The second one was sent half an hourter, which was probably because


    she hadn’t replied to the first one, so ric called her. ‘Why didn’t you


    answer the phone?’

    The third one was in the afternoon, when he urged her because he


    couldn’t get in touch with her. ‘Are you angry because of udia’s


    matter?’


    ‘Answer the phone, Ms. Snowball. I have something to tell you.''”

    After that, he didn’t send any more messages, probably because he didn’t


    receive a reply from her.


    Only after she exited WhatsApp did she realize he had called her 10 times.


    When she read the messages, she thought that he hadn’t called her in the


    afternoon, but it turned out that there were more than 10 missed calls, with

    the most recent one being 15 minutes ago. Now, that’s unexpected.


    As soon as she entered the house, Hector, the butler, hurriedly came over


    to greet her before she could say anything. “You’re finally back, Mrs.


    Cadogan.”


    He looked anxious and scrutinized Victoria from head to toe. When he

    made sure she was safe and sound, even holding a bunch of shopping


    bags in her hands, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.


    “What’s wrong?” she asked softly.


    “Nothing, Mrs. Cadogan.” As he said that, he walked up to her to take the


    bags from her. “Did you go shopping all day today?”


    “Yeah. I haven’t gone shopping in a long time, so I went around.”

    Mainly because she went to the hospital and hadn’t been home all day, so


    if she didn’t bring anything home, she would feel guilty and wouldn’t be


    able toe up with an answer when someone asked her what she did


    while she was out. So, shopping was the best answer, and with so many


    bags, no one would suspect anything.


    “I see. Why didn’t you answer the phone, Mrs. Cadogan? Mr. Cadogan has


    been calling you, and he was worried crazy.”

    Worried crazy? Victoria smiled imperceptibly, and a hint of sarcasm


    flickered in her eyes. This choice of word. If she didn’t know that Hector


    always spoke positively about ric, she would really think that ric was


    worried crazy for her. He probably called from the ward where udia


    was staying.


    “I turned my phone to silent before going to bedst night and forgot to


    turn it off when I woke up,” she exined calmly.


    Upon hearing this, Hector had a sudden realization, which showed in his


    expression.


    Seeing that he was about to take the shopping bags from her, she said,


    “You don’t have to take them for me. I’m going upstairs to sort these out


    anyway. I can take them on my own.”


    “Let me help you carry them upstairs, then.”


    “It’s fine. I can do it myself.” She declined his offer and carried the bags

    upstairs, leaving him to stand there awkwardly, scratching his head. Just


    when he was about to call ric, his phone rang.


    “Sir, yes, Mrs. Cadogan just got back.”


    Victoria could still hear Hector’s report as she had already climbed up the


    stairs, and at that moment, she smirked slightly. Wow, such care, tracking


    me with his phone all the time. Why note out of her ward first?


    Without turning back, she took the shopping bags upstairs.


    Since she had to sort things out, she didn’t rush to take a shower. Instead,


    she opened one of the bags and first gave Griselda the gifts she had


    prepared for her. Only after that did shee back to sort out the rest.


    In fact, in addition to being a good excuse, she went shopping mainly


    because she wanted to buy some loose-fitting clothes. Before she was


    pregnant, her clothes were all slim-fitting styles. Although her belly was


    still small and she couldn’t see any difference even if she wore slim-fitting

    clothes, she had to n ahead and slowly transition so as not to attract


    attention. Fortunately, it was also the winter season.

    She put her clothes into a basket and wanted to take it downstairs to give


    to the maid, but she almost bumped into ric, who wasing upstairs.


    Luckily, ric stopped in time and supported himself against the wall,


    staring at her with unsteady breathing.


    Not expecting him toe back so soon, she furrowed her eyebrows


    slightly. “Why-”


    Before she could finish her sentence, he grabbed her shoulder, and then


    she heard him panting as he asked, “Where have you been? Why didn’t


    you answer my calls? Do you know how long I’ve been looking for you?”


    His grip was tight on her shoulder, and she instinctively frowned, wanting


    to break free.

    “If you’re angry about what happenedst night, then…”


    “I’m not angry.” She broke free from his grasp and took two steps back with.


    the basket in her hand, exining calmly, “I didn’t answer your calls


    because I forgot to turn off silent mode. It wasn’t intentional.”


    “Didn’t you check your phone from time to time?” He squinted his eyes,


    clearly not believing her.


    With a calm expression, she replied, “I didn’t. I was out all day today


    shopping and didn’t have time to look at my phone.”


    It was only then that ric noticed the clothes basket in her hand, filled


    with clothes she had bought today. At this moment, his gaze slightly


    changed.


    “As for what happenedst night, you don’t need to keep worrying about it.


    I’ve already thought it through.”

    Upon hearing this, he squinted his long and narrow eyes, staring at her


    fiercely. “Thought what through?”


    “I think you’re right. She couldn’t get off the ho ok at that time, so it was


    right for her to shift the me onto me.” A smile tugged on her lips.


    His pupils contracted. “What?”
