Chapter 116
“How long have I had to wait because the operation was dyed? If not
for that dy, ric and Victoria would be divorced by now. All of this
would not have happened then,” udia stated.
She then grabbed ine’s hand. “I know you’re saying this for my sake, but
Old Mrs. Cadogan’s operation must be a sess. That is the only way for
me to even stand a chance to get together with Al. Otherwise… The
greatest danger at hand is a divorce that is constantly postponed. I don’t
even know if I can warn Christopher off doing anything right now. You’ve
always been good with words. Can you help me talk to him? Tell him that
he cannot be rash or do anything foolish. I won’t forget what you’ve done
for me once I’m Mrs. Cadogan.”
To ine, udia’sst sentence sounded like a promise.
“Don’t worry, udia,” she said. “I’ll help you.”
udia shot her a grateful look.
“Thank you, ine. You are my very best friend.”
After leaving the hospital, ine called Christopher to ask him to meet
with her.
Christopher felt no goodwill toward udia’s friends due to how they
always humiliated her. Hence, if not for the fact that ine knew udia,
he would have punched her in the face.
Still, just because he would not punch her did not mean he would be nice
to her.
“What do you want?” he asked bluntly.
He returned to his usual thuggish attitude whenever udia was not
around.
His attitude infuriated ine so much that she wanted to curse him out.
However, she had no choice but to suppress her rage due to udia’s
request.
“udia asked me to pass on a message,” she replied.
“udia? What does she want?” His entire stance changed the moment
he heard udia’s name.

“She said you should not be rash and do anything to Victoria.”
He chuckled. “Even after all these years, she’s still as kind as ever. Her
wound will leave her with a scar, right? Thus, I must teach Victoria a
lesson.”
“I understand your urge to defend udia, but if you attack Victoria so
soon after the incident, people will gossip about udia. She’s a kind
woman who does not deserve to be bad–mouthed.”
He finally understood what she meant now.
“You’re telling me to wait a while?” he asked.
“That’s right,” she confirmed with a smirk. “Wait a few days before
attacking her in a remote ce with no one around. Who would link the
attack to udia by then?”
He took a puff of his cigarette and shuffled to rest his weight on one foot.
“I see.”
Deep down, ine was disgusted by the way he held himself. However,

udia had given her a task, so she suppressed her disgust and said,
“While she told you not to do that, as her friend, I want to avenge her as
well. If you truly like her, you’ll wait for me to tell you when you can act.”
He shot her a look.
“What’s your motive here?”
His question stunned her. “What?”
“udia asked you to tell me not to do anything to Victoria, but now you’re
telling me to wait for your signal. Do you have something against this
Victoria?” he asked.
Her face went pale.
“That’s none of your business. If you want to avenge udia, you’ll work
with me. Don’t poke your nose where it doesn’t belong.”
He coldly snorted. “You’re quite the schemer. I want revenge, but don’t you
think you can use me.”
“Use you? If I have something against Victoria, it’s all because of udia.

Can you say you have nothing against Victoria?”
Her exnation actually made sense to him.
Ever since he knew Victoria had injured udia, he had thought of Victoria
as his enemy.
He remembered her since they had studied in the same ce. In his
memories, Victoria was an extremely beautiful woman. He had not
expected her to do something so hurtful.
As expected, only his udia was kind. Every other woman was just a wolf
in sheep’s clothing.
“Enough. That’s all I have to say to you for now. I’ll contact you when the
timees. You either do as I say or get lost,” ine dered.
She walked away right after saying that. When she was finally gone from
his view, he spat on the ground as a murderous look shed in his eyes.
“Stupid woman. Once I have udia, all of you are doomed.”

Perhaps it was because ric and Victoria finally had a talk at the
hospital, but after returning home, the two of them were surprisingly able
to coexist peacefully.
It was the first time that had happened since udia’s return.
As Griselda was going to be operated on in a few days, ric did not go
anywhere but to his office and back. However, the couple continued to act
the same as always around each other.
Benedict told them to wait for his notice after that day…
Adrian flew off to deal with work while Mary stayed behind to apany
Griselda on trips around the city.
As she was an easily excitable woman, Griselda had a lot of fun touring
the city with her.
Hence, Victoria did not have to worry about Griselda.
Once she was done with work in the morning, she headed down to the
dessert shop, hoping to reward herself with some cake.

With a Bluetooth earpiece in her ear, she headed over to the confectionery
cab to select her cake as Summer lectured her.
“You’re done with work, right? Have you had lunch yet?” Summer asked.
“I’m getting some food right now,” Victoria replied.
“What? You’re only eating now? Victoria, do you even realize that you are
now a mother? Even if you’re not hungry, the baby is.”
“I know. Look, I’m getting food before that happens.”
Summer’s tone might be harsh, but her words filled Victoria with warmth.
In this huge city, she actually had someone with whom she could confide
about everything in her life. Summer was the only person Victoria trusted
to know about the baby and not use the knowledge to hurt Victoria.
Summer scoffed. “You sound proud of yourself. What time is it? You’re
starving my future godson or goddaughter.” Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Victoria could not resist smiling as her voice sweetened in her reply.

“I know. I know. I’ll take a break earlier to get food next time.”
“Hmph! You actually think there will be a next time?”

Victoriaughed before pointing out the pink cake she wanted to the shop
employee.
“I would like this.”
There was a warm grin on the employee’s face when she noticed Victoria
was on a call the entire time. She thought Victoria was speaking to her
boyfriend. Oh, how she envied Victoria, who was beautiful, sexy, and had a
very caring boyfriend.
She even ced Victoria’s cake in a pretty gift box.
Summer heard Victoria’s exchange with the shop employee and
immediately started her interrogation. “Victoria Selwyn, are you eating
desserts again?”
“It’s only a slice.”
“No can do. Did you forget what the doctor said? You cannot eat anything.

sweet for now. What will you do if your cravings cause your blood sugar
levels to increase drastically?”
“That won’t happen, right? I’m only having one slice.”
By then, the cake was packed away. Victoria paid and mouthed thanks to
the employee before walking away with her cake.
“I know,” Victoria continued to say to Summer. “You…”
Just as she pulled open the ss door of the shop, someone suddenly
gave her a hard shove on the shoulder.
