Chapter 223
“Can you teach me your moves? I want to learn from a pro.” Thedy wanted to date
ric, so she showed no hostility toward Victoria, whom she thought was Jordan’s
girlfriend. Quickly, she took her into the locker room.
the
When the staff members caught news of the race, they quickly prepared the course,
and thedies were treated like VIPs. The moment they entered the locker room,
staff members handed them their riding clothing.
One of them presented the attire to Victoria and praised, “You have a perfect body,
miss. It’ll be easy to pick your clothes.” After saying that, they passed the attire into
her hands.
Dammit, I want to run so badly. But if I do that, Mr. Floyd’s going to be embarrassed.
Forget about having him invest; we’d be lucky he’s not attacking us.
She came into the dressing room, feeling rather down. She wondered if today was
not her day after all. Why did I not check my horoscope for the day before heading out? Otherwise, I
wouldn’t have walked into this situation. She had half a mind to
call Henry to ask him if they really needed the investment, but she could already
guess how he would answer.
Victoria looked at her rider outfit, deep in thought. A whileter, her desire to run a
ric and intended to return all the assets he gave her. If things went well, he’d
have received everything by now. We’re even now. And if I am to run a business in
this country, I’ll eventually run into him, like it or not. I can’t run away every time. It’s
not possible, and it will only make me look bad. The only choice I have is to charge
ahead. This is an opportunity.
Once her head was clear, she took a deep breath and took off her coat before
cing it on a rack. When she was about to take off her sweater, someone knocked
on the door. “Who’s that?”
Victoria thought it was the girl who came in with her. She’s fast. She then went to open the door.
However, before she could register what was happening, a silhouette slipped inside. Then, the door
was closed and locked. When she finally realized who it was, her eyes went wide. Shortly afterward,
she snapped out of her stupor and
tried to reach for the door.
Though, she couldn’t make it. ric held her wrist and pulled it over her head,
pinning her against the cold, solid door.
Victoria struggled. “Let me go.”
He looked at her coolly. A whileter, her hair clip fell. Her hair cascaded down her
shoulder, covering her clothes and giving off a faint sweet scent of shampoo. Still,
ric studied her coldly. It had been five years since theyst met, and she was a lot
more gorgeous than before. The childlike innocence was gone, but she still radiated
the air of purity despite having long hair, though there was a hint of adult seduction
within her.
Purity and allure were two opposite qualities, yet they coexisted within her.
However, the only thing was that this woman was ring at him with fury.
“I said, let me go!”
Her words had been ignored yet again. ric didn’t let her go; instead, he closed in
on her until there was not even a millimeter distance between them. Then, he
mocked, “So Bane let you y around with other men, huh? Guess he doesn’t care
about you.”
Victoria frowned at that. “None of your business.” She then tried to struggle again.
Their bodies were already touching one another, and their clothes were not that
thick, either. Thus, the moment she started struggling, he could feel her body
rubbing against his, and the look on his face changed. He then held her wrist tighter.
Noticing what was happening, Victoria froze and stopped moving altogether. There
was a bit of tension in the air. A momentter, she blushed as she red at him and
spoke through gritted teeth, “You’re so shameless!”
ric didn’t look too happy either; he was ck as thunder. He retorted in a hoarse
voice, “None of this would have happened if you just stayed still.”
Even though their body had been sticking to each other since earlier, he didn’t feel
anything since they didn’t move, not to mention he was furious at her. However, now
that she was rubbing against him….
ric took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He couldn’t believe his body would

still react so strongly to her after all these years.
Victoria snapped, “So what if I was moving? I wouldn’t have done so if you hadn’t
held me down. And the point about being human is to control your mind, or you’re
no better than a horndog.”
He narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth. “What did you say?!”
“I stand by what I said. You did this, so you deserve it!”
He took another deep breath and said nothing, but Victoria wouldn’t let him off that
easily. She said, “Now, piss off.”
ric refused to move, so she angrily shoved him, and a grunt escaped his lips.
Just then, she felt something down there change, and her face fell. “How low can
you go?”
Her angry yet adorable voice made him freeze, and he looked at her face, a smile
curling his lips. “Keep moving, and I’ll show you how low I can go.”
Victoria would always get embarrassed easily when it came to this, and she was
shocked by what he said. A whileter, she cursed, “How shameless!”
ric smirked. “Thanks for thepliment.” A whileter, he put some distance
between them and turned around. He wasn’t sure he could hold himself back if he
remained to stay close to her.
The moment he turned around, Victoria reached for the door and was about to
leave. However, someone knocked on it before she could even unlock the door. It
was the girl who hade in with her earlier. “Hey, are you done changing?”
Victoria froze for a moment. Ah, why does she have to appear now? I don’t want anyone to see me
with him. She stood still and answered calmly, “Not yet. Have you
done changing? In that case–ah!”
