Chapter 208


    As Victoria thought about it, she opened the door and ran outside without shoes.


    Just as she was about to sprint to the living room, Bane walked in, and she flung


    herself into his embrace without any warning.


    He was surprised and took a few steps back to keep his bnce. “What’s the


    matter?” he asked while hugging her, preventing her from falling.


    At this moment, she couldn’t think of anything else and asked, “Where is Fiona? Is


    she back yet?”


    Hearing her words, Bane sighed and said, “Don’t worry. I’m here to tell you about


    her.”


    Only then did Victoria calm down. She took a few steps back and looked at him.


    He saw her barefoot and was wearing the same clothes asst night. However, he


    knew she would not leave before hearing about Fiona’s matter. Thus, he said, “She


    is safe. Nothing happened to her. My men had guarded the hotel and just came


    back.”


    ‘Guarding the hotel?”

    Chapter 209 She Had Never Appeared in His Dreams


    “Yes.”


    “How did you guys guard it? Which part of the hotel is she at? Did she get in?” asked


    Victoria. After all, there was no way Fiona could get into the room since she didn’t.


    have the room card.


    Bane didn’t reply and stared at her, seemingly trying to see her reaction. After some


    time, he chuckled and asked, “How would you feel if I told you she got in?”

    At that moment, Victoria stiffened. Then, her expression darkened. “Do you think it’s


    fun to test my limits?”


    The smile on Bane’s lips vanished when he saw her grim expression. “That’s not


    what I meant.”


    “You have been testing me ever sincest night.”


    Bane paused for a moment before staring at her. “Well, you might as well think it is.


    I’m testing you because I care about you. I want to see if you still had feelings for


    him and if I still had the chance to be with you.”


    At that moment, Victoria didn’t say anything. She was startled by how


    straightforward he was. “I…”


    Chapter 200 She Had Never Appeared in His Dreams


    “Alright, that’s enough of it. Since you know Fiona is safe, go and wear a coat.”


    At his words, Victoria looked down and saw she only wore pajamas.


    “It’s freezing outside, so don’t catch a cold.”


    In the meantime, at the hotel. The sun was already up, and Fiona was leaning.


    against the wall tiredly. She had been here all night and heard nothing happening.


    inside the room. Thus, she felt that ric should be fine. Is he already awake? Did


    he see the note that I left?


    As she thought about it, she felt her legs numb from squatting too long. She tried to


    stand up but identally dropped her phone. Then, she quickly picked it up and


    checked for any damage. After seeing that it was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief.


    However, she soon had a grim expression.


    Last night, she turned off her phone since she feared that Victoria would call her


    again. She wondered if Victoria had been worried about her for the whole night.


    Thinking about it, Fiona turned on her phone and saw countless missed calls from


    Victoria. In that split second, she felt guilty. After all, she wouldn’t have abandoned


    her best friend if she hadn’t loved the man deeply. However, she only had this one


    Chapter 209 She Had Never Appeared in His Dreams


    chance that she couldn’t miss.


    Once I am done with him, I will ask Victoria for forgiveness.


    As Fiona thought about it, she kept her phone away and stretched her limbs before


    pressing the doorbell.


    While pressing the doorbell, she wondered whether ric had awoken from his


    sleep or not. Thus, she could only try her luck.

    She pressed the doorbell twice the first time, and there was no response: Then, she


    stood there patiently. After some time, just as Fiona had lost count of how many.


    times she had pressed the doorbell, the door finally opened. ric stood by the door


    and emitted a cold aura. He was ring at her coldly since he was disturbed in his


    sleep.


    When Fiona met his gaze, she felt chills run down her spine. “H–Hello?”


    Bang! In that split second, the door was shut, almost hitting Fiona by the nose.


    When she returned to her senses, she pressed on the doorbell again.


    After pressing it for the second time, ric opened the door again.

    “Is that something you need?” ric’s cold expression suggested that she was not


    weed. He recognized that Fiona was the woman bugging him at the bar.


    However, never would he imagine that she would chase after him to the hotel he


    stayed in.


    Fiona nodded and tried to enter the room, fearing ric would shut the door on her


    again. However, ric blocked the door and looked at her coldly. It was evident that


    he had no intention of letting her go inside.


    “I… Please let me in. I have something to tell you.”


    “You can say it here. I’ll give you one minute to speak,” ric said coldly.


    Fiona didn’t expect him to be so cold–hearted. On second thought, she felt he might


    not know what happenedst night since he had just woken up. That was why he


    was acting cold toward her. Thus, she immediately said, “You were drunkst night,


    and I am the one who brought you here.”


    At that moment, ric stiffened.


    “I am also the one who paid for the room.” She smiled awkwardly. “However, I’m not


    asking you to return my money. I just don’t want to be misunderstood.”

    He fell silent when he heard that she was the one who helped him when he was


    drunkst night. However, something shed across his mind, Among the chaos, he


    vaguely remembered seeing the woman he longed for at the bar. Yet, when he woke


    up, Fiona told him she was the one who helped him.


    Thinking about it, ric narrowed his eyes.


    Could I be delusional since I was drunkst night? No. That’s not it. For the past five

    had never oncee into my dreams. No matter how much I yearned for her, she


    had never appeared in my dreams, not even when I was drunk. Thus, it wasn’t at

    As ric thought about it, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately.


    walked into the room.


    On the other hand, Fiona didn’t know what happened. However, seeing that ric


    had not closed the door, she quickly followed him into the room. “How do I put this?

    into her phone, he said, “This is my secretary’s phone number. He will give you the


    money you need if you tell him about what happenedst night.”


    As he spoke, he had already worn his suit and took his phone. Then, he turned


    around and left the room.
