    Chapter 311


    In the end, Victoria got into the car, and they left the vi area in no time. Before


    entering the main road, ric asked Victoria for Bane’s house address.


    1/


    It had been over five years, and ric ground his teeth, having to say Bane’s name once


    again.


    “Bane?” Victoria was surprised to hear the name but quickly came to realize something


    and gave ric Bane’s address after a moment’s silence.


    It took only about ten seconds in total.


    ric was rather surprised she’d give him the address so quickly, believing she’d argue


    with him, but little did he expect that she’d understand so quickly.


    With the destination now set, the car quickly turned onto the main road. Their journey


    to Bane’s was deadly silent.


    Victoria sank deep into her thoughts. It had never urred to her that Bane would take


    her children away.


    She was so certain that ric wanted to take custody of the twins that she assumed

    he had taken them away behind her back because she wouldn’t let him have them. But


    now, with his words and upon careful consideration of what the teacher had said, she


    came around.


    The teacher had mistakenly taken Bane as the twins‘ father before, so it wouldn’t be


    surprising for the teacher to continue assuming so. Meanwhile, she, having been


    influenced by her subjective consciousness, thought the teacher was referring to


    ric. This indirectly indicated that the twins were ric’s, wasn’t it?!


    Victoria leaned her forehead against her palm, feeling a sense of helplessness against


    her own stupidity. She was ratherposed most of the time. However, once it


    involved the children, she’d turn impulsive and could never sit down and think for a


    moment.


    If ric hadn’t reminded her, she would never have thought Bane would be the one to


    take her babies away.


    Just then, ric’s phone rang. Victoria took a reflexive nce at it and found that it


    wasn’t the same one as before. The color of this phone was different from the previous


    one. It was probably his backup phone.


    He connected it to the car’s Bluetooth and answered the call. “Have you found it?”


    Mon,

    “We’ve retrieved the surveince footage as fast as we could, Mr. Cadogan. It’s been


    sent to your phone.”

    At that, ric tugged at his lips. “Well done. Who took them?”


    Terrance hesitated for a moment before saying, “I think it’s better that you see it for


    yourself, sir.”


    After hanging up, ric turned to Victoria. “Do you want to take the phone yourself, or


    should I show you at the next intersection?”


    “I’ll take it myself,” said Victoria after a moment’s silence and reached for ric’s phone.


    “The password is your birthday.”


    His words made Victoria pause for a moment. “I know,” she replied bitterly, biting her lip.


    What else isn’t when even the entry code to your main door is my birthday?!


    She entered her own birthday wordlessly, and the page redirected to reveal Terrance’s


    Within a few seconds of ying the video, a tall figure could be seen approaching and


    squatting down in front of the twins, who were waiting at the school gate. The tall man


    Mon,


    Chapter 311 Let’s Get Our Son and Daughter


    had a gentle and warm aura. Who else could it be but Bane?


    Victoria fell silent after watching the video. To think Bane had really taken the twins


    away. But why didn’t he tell me? Had he taken them back to my ce or…

    “You done?” ric’s crisp voice pulled Victoria back to reality, and she locked the phone


    before returning it to him.


    Silence filled the inside of the car as Victoria leaned quietly against her seat. ric


    rested his hands on the steering wheel as the car came to a stop at the traffic light


    intersection ahead, musing for a moment before speaking up, “You think I’m


    responsible for every bad thing, don’t you?”


    Victoria remained silent.


    “You immediately assumed I took the twins away as soon as they were missing.”


    “What else was I supposed to think?” Victoria countered. “Haven’t you gone to the


    school every day to see the children, just to take them away one day? Can you honestly


    say you never thought of taking the twins away?”


    “I’m only trying to make amends, not-”


    Chapter 311 Let’s Get Our Son and Daughter


    “I don’t want to talk about it. The traffic light’s about to change. Keep your eyes on the


    road.”


    Victoria was worry–stricken when she first learned that ric hadn’t taken the children


    away, wondering who else could’ve taken them away.

    Later, when she found out Bane had taken them away but hadn’t told her about it, she


    felt somewhat relieved but still had doubts. Why didn’t Bane tell her he had taken the


    kids away?


    Thinking about how she had rejected him so harshly not long ago, Victoria felt a tinge


    of regret.


    She worried Bane would react in anger, but based on her understanding of him, he


    didn’t seem like someone who would do such a thing. However, all these uncertainties


    had to be answered after she saw her babies with her own eyes.


    ric didn’t argue with her either, as he, too, was worried about the twins.


    Surprisingly, Bane’s ce was not far from ric’s. It only took about twenty minutes by


    car to arrive, and as soon as they arrived, Victoria hopped out of the car.

    She had originally nned to talk to Bane at once, but when she heard movement

    behind her, she stopped and impeded ric. “You should go back.”


    “What did you say?” ric frowned.


    “I’ll go in and talk to him myself. Don’t follow.”

    Although he and Bane used to be the best of friends, they had long since fallen out.


    She worried the two might shter and even fight if things got out of hand. How ugly


    of a scene it’d be?!


    It wouldn’t affect her. She was worried about the twins. Nicole and Nathan were still


    little, and she didn’t want them to witness these unpleasant things.


    “Huh!” An icy chuckle escaped ric. Mixed with the night wind, it was somewhat


    indistinct. He took a few steps forward, standing only barely an inch away from Victoria.


    “Those kids he took? They aren’t only yours but also mine. I don’t feel at ease letting your


    go in alone.”


    Victoria fell silent for a moment. When she realized his intention, she retorted angrily,


    “They are my children! You have nothing to do with them!”


    “It’s not on you to decide whether I have anything to do with them.” With that, ric


    held her wrist. “Come, let’s go get our son and daughter.”


    Chapter 311 Let’s Get Our Son and Daughter


    With that, Victoria was taken forward, her whole body being led along.


    “Let go of me, ric. Are you nuts?! Let go!”


    However, ric’s grip on her wrist was like a sturdy shackle, no matter how she


    struggled. “Stop it. Do you want Nathan and Nicole to see us fight?”


    Victoria stopped at once.


    “You’re worried I’ll have a conflict with Bane in front of the kids, don’t you? Well, I


    promise that won’t happen, alright?”


    Victoria was stunned, surprised that he had read her mind. After a moment of


    bewilderment, she asked, “How did you know?”
