Chapter 254
The next day, Victoria personally took the two children to school. Normally, it would
have been Band’s responsibility, but after their conversationst night, Victoria
decided not to let him do it anymore.
“If you really want to give me time to think, then don’t interfere with my thoughts
during this time,” she told him.
Bane was truly swayed by her words and he didn’t show up again. Seeing that he
didn’t appear, Victoria breathed a sigh of relief and apanied the two children to

school. Since they were earlier than usual and she was carrying a thermos, the two
children curiously asked her some questions along the way.
“Well, it’s for a business partner of mypany. He’s sick, so I’m bringing him some
food,” Victoria exined.
Being the sweet–mouthed child that she was, Nicole not only didn’t ask further, but
she also praised Victoria. “Mommy, you’re so nice, beautiful, and kind–hearted.
Whoever marries you will be the luckiest man in the world.”
Hearing this, Victoria curled the corner of her lips. These words were taught to the
two children by Summer in the past, and Nicole often used them topliment

Victoria. Every time she said it, Victoria couldn’t help but smile. It wasn’t because
she thought thepliment was great, but because Nicole’s expression was
especially adorable and her tone conveyed pride.
“All right, you two, hurry inside. Don’t argue or pick fights with anyone at school.
Take care of each other, understand?”
After giving the two children instructions, Victoria watched them enter the school
before she turned and left.
At the hospital, Terrance looked at ric, who was sitting up early in the morning
with a pallid expression.

“Mr. Cadogan, it’s still early. Miss Selwyn won’t be here so soon. You didn’t get much
sleepst night either. How about getting some more rest?” He tried to persuade
ric several times to rest more.
Unfortunately, no matter how many times he said it until his mouth ran dry, ric
only furrowed his brows and sent him away dismissively. “Enough chatter.”
Terrance was speechless. Forget it, I shouldn’t have spoken up. Let him be in pain.
Thinking this, he simply shut his mouth and stopped persuading ric.

As time passed, ric’s brow became more and more furrowed. He nced at the
door and then at his wrist. Afterward, his expression grew increasingly grim. Could
she be deceiving me? Is it possible that she won’te at all? But that couldn’t be
true. If she didn’t want toe, she wouldn’t have promised me yesterday.
After waiting for some time, Terrance sensed that something was wrong. He could
clearly feel the heavy aura emanating from ric. So, he took the initiative to speak

ric’s face remained cold with his thin lips tightly pursed. He didn’t say whether it
was a good idea or not, but he didn’t refuse either. In this kind of situation, it was
generally considered as consent.
Hence, Terrance got up, intending to go and check outside the hospital, but as soon
as he reached the door of the ward, he saw a slender figure carrying a thermos
walking toward him.
A smile appeared on Terrance’s face, and his voice resonated with joy as he
shouted, “Miss Selwyn!”
At this, ric instantly rxed. The creases on his forehead, which had been tightly
furrowed, also smoothed out at that moment. His heart, which was burdened with
worry, was finally set at ease.

He watched as Victoria walked in while Terrance gave her a puzzled look. Then, she
gave him a strange nce. “Why were you guarding the door?”

Terrance scratched his head and was about to exin, but Victoria interrupted him.
“Don’t tell me you doubted whether I woulde.”
“N–No, I just wanted to see if you had arrived,” Terrance replied.
Victoria walked into the ward while speaking, calmly cing the thermos she was
holding on the table. Subsequently, she rolled up her sleeves and opened the lid of
the thermos.
As soon as the lid was lifted, the aroma of the food spread through the room.
Terrance, who had already eaten breakfast, found his appetite stirring. He had
thought that she would bring store–bought meals, but when he leaned in for a closer
look, he realized that she cooked everything herself.
ric watched her, observing her skilled movements from the side as she prepared
the food. It was as if she had done these things a thousand times before. The more
he watched, the more furrowed his brow became.
When Victoria brought the food to him, she said, “Eat up. It’s all liquid food. I asked
the doctor, who said this is the best type of food for your current condition.”

After a few seconds of silence, ric epted the bowl.
The taste was good. ric, who hadn’t had much of an appetite for a long time,
suddenly felt hungry, But…
He nced at Victoria. “You made this yourself?”
Victoria replied with a question, “Why? Is there a problem?”
ric pursed his lips. He had wanted to say that she didn’t know how to do these
things herself in the past. However, he realized that it was all from five years ago.
Many things had happened to him in those five years, not to mention to her.
Seeing that he’didn’t touch the bowl, Victoria urged him, “Eat quickly. There was
some traffic on the way, so the food may not be as hot anymore. If you keep holding
onto it, it’ll get cold.”
Victoria’s urging prompted ric to stop hesitating. He picked up the spoon and
began eating bite by bite.
Victoria averted her gaze; she did not continue to watch ric eat. Instead, she got
up and went to find Terrance.

“Did the doctor say anything about his condition today?”
“The doctor came to check on him in the morning. He said that if Mr. Cadogan is
willing to cooperate with the treatment, he can recover quite quickly. But the most
important thing is…”
“What is it?”
“His stomach needs to recover. Even if he’s discharged from the hospital after
recuperating here, he still needs to eat properly and can’t drink alcohol like before.”
“That’s for sure,” Victoria said firmly. “Let him stay in the hospital for a while first.”
ric listened to their conversation while finishing the liquid food in the bowl.
When Terrance came back and saw this scene, he was shocked. He had been with
ric all this while, yet it was the first time he had seen ric with such a good
appetite.
As ric’s stomach was still in a state of recovery, when Victoria saw that he had
finished the bowl, she asked, “Is it to your liking?”
“Yes.” ric nodded with his eyes still fixed on her as if afraid she would leave after
Chapter 254 Mommy is Beautiful and Kind
hearing his response.
“All right then, you’ll have to stick to liquid food for the next few days. I’lle back
in the afternoon.”
After saying that, Victoria started to pack up her things, preparing to leave.
ric’s expression was somewhat astonished. “Are you leaving already?”
He hadn’t expected that she woulde for such a short while. Did shee all
the way here just to watch him eat?
ric stared at the empty bowl in his hand and instantly regretted it.
If he had known, he would have eaten the meal slowly.
He hadn’t expected their time together to be so short.
“I still have to go to work.” Victoria closed the thermos, then looked at ric
expressionlessly. “Rest well and remember to eat lunch.”
After speaking, Victoria turned to Terrance. “If he doesn’t eat, let me know. I won’t

Terrance replied, “Sure. If Mr. Cadogan doesn’t eat well at noon, I’ll immediately send
a message to you.”
ric was speechless.
