    Chapter 351

    Either he’s afraid to let me see it because he’s tampered with it or because,


    as he said, he really thinks it’d hurt my eyes for me to read it in the car. In any


    case, he’s put the agreement away, so I can’t see it anymore. At this thought,


    Victoria lost all interest in talking to him anymore.


    ric probably saw what she was thinking, too, and he didn’t say another


    word.


    They remained silent all the way until they got to school.


    It was ric who had sent the kids to school this morning. This time, he got


    out of the car again to pick them up, while Victoria didn’t move one bit. Just a


    momentter, she saw ric bring the kids back.


    The two kids threw themselves at Victoria while greeting her as soon as they


    got in the car. Before ric got in, Nicole even looked up and whispered to


    Victoria, “Mommy, have you agreed to let Mr. Night be our daddy?”


    This question… Victoria’s lips parted slightly. Just when she was about to say


    something, she saw ric about to get in the car as well. She bit back the


    reply on her lips, saying instead, “Sweetie, we’ll talk about this when we get

    home.”

    Nicole was pretty well–behaved this time. After hearing Victoria say that, she


    obediently shut up and kept quiet.


    ric and his chauffeur sent them home after that. Before they got out of the


    car, he asked softly, “Shall we have dinner together this evening?”


    Victoria paused for a moment at his question. Then, she replied, “Maybe


    another time.”


    Nevertheless, the man put the design drawing in her hand. “If you still have


    time after reading the agreement when you get home, you may take a look


    at this design drawing.”


    Victoria stared at the design drawing forced into her hand. After a moment,


    she nodded. “Okay, I got it. You may go back,” she said before turning to go


    upstairs with the kids.


    ric leaned against the car, his eyes gloomy as he watched her and the


    two kids go upstairs, making sure they were safe before getting back in the


    car. After that, he lowered the car window and stared coldly at the scenery


    outside.

    The chauffeur took a peek at him through the rearview mirror. Feeling that


    3/8


    something wasn’t quite right with the man, he gingerly said, “Don’t lose heart, Mr. Cadogan. It’s normal


    for women to be a little haughty at first, but she’ll


    surely soften up over time.”


    Hearing this, ric darted a look at him. He replied impassively, “What do you


    know?”


    The chauffeur was lost for words. Fine, it’s true that I don’t know anything. My


    wife didn’t divorce me, anyway. However, he dared not say this in front of his


    boss. What else could he say? So, he had no choice but to silently drive ric


    home.


    They got in front of the gate to Cadogan Residence when the chauffeur saw


    from afar a slender and frail figure standing in front of it. After realizing who it


    was, he hurriedly said, “Mr. Cadogan, Miss Johnson is here again.”


    ric had been musing on the house’s design. Upon hearing this, he


    immediately knitted his brows. He then looked ahead of him, and sure.


    enough, there was udia, standing in the dark right by the gate to


    Cadogan Residence with a forlorn expression on her face. She seemed to


    have been waiting for a long time.


    Chapter 351 Sh


    ric pursed his lips, feeling displeased. He had already made himself very


    clear to udia, but this woman didn’t seem to understand him, and this


    produced a feeling of aversion in him. On second thought, however, he hit


    upon a question: Am I also as annoying as udia in Victoria’s mind’s eye.


    when I pestered her? Just the thought of this possibility alone sent a pang


    through his heart and caused him to frown. No, this can’t be!

    Immediately, he became more determined to cut all ties with udia.


    Hence, when the car came to a stop, he ordered right away, “You get out and


    tell her to leave.”


    Having witnessed what udia was capable of, the chauffeur didn’t get out


    of the car right after hearing the man’s words. Instead, he asked, “What if Miss


    Johnson refuses to leave?”


    “In that case, just call Terrance and tell him to get somebody here.”


    At ric’s reply, the chauffeur nodded at once, knowing what to do. “Roger


    that, Mr. Cadogan,” he said, unbuckling his seatbelt before getting out of the


    car.


    Standing in the cold wind, udia clutched the strap of her handbag, which


    Chapter 351 She Came to Say Goodbye


    held something Scarlette had given her saying that it would help her


    5/8


    seed. At first, she had wanted to tarry for several days, since the odds


    were really against her if she came to ric at this moment after only a day.


    However, Scarlette told her to strike the iron while it was hot, so she


    eventually came at Scarlette’s urging. She took a deep breath. My sess or


    failure depends on this, so I mustn’t flinch.


    Unexpectedly, however, the person who got out of the car wasn’t ric but


    his chauffeur.


    As the chauffeur came toward her, she darted a nce inside the car, but it


    was too pitch–dark for her to see anything. With no alternative, she turned


    toward the chauffeur. “Where’s ric?” She didn’t address the chauffeur with


    honorifics, nor did she speak to him respectfully; there was even a


    questioning tone in her voice.


    Compared to Victoria, the chauffeur really disliked udia, who turned her


    nose up at everyone and prided herself on her status as a well–borndy. Not


    only that, she queried the chauffeur in this attitude. At first, he had wanted to


    politely ask her to leave, but now, annoyed with her attitude, he instantly


    abandoned the idea of being nice to her. He stiffly urged, “Miss Johnson,


    please go back. Mr. Cadogan doesn’t want to see you.”


    Chapter 351 She Came to Say Goodbye


    udia’s countenance changed drastically at his words. She looked inside


    the car. “Did he tell you to say that?”


    The chauffeur nodded vigorously. “Yeah, that’s what Mr. Cadogan said. He


    doesn’t want to see you.”


    udia’s previous arrogance vanished instantly. Biting her lower lip, she


    stepped forward, saying, “Sir.”


    The chauffeur was speechless.


    “Can you please plead with ric for me? I really have something important


    to talk to him about this time.”


    The chauffeur was a middle–aged man, so his heart softened when udia


    actually called him ‘sir.‘ But then, he recalled ric telling him to phone


    Terrance to get somebody over at once if she refused to leave. But doing this


    would embarrass her a lot, no? At the thought of this, he had no choice but to


    say, “Miss Johnson, it’s not that I want to make things awkward for you, but Mr.


    Cadogan really doesn’t want to see you. I advise you not to stay here any


    longer on such a cold day. Just go back.”

    “No, I can’t.” Clutching her handbag, udia took a step forward as if


    grasping at straws. “Sir, just tell ric for me that I came this time to say


    goodbye to him, okay?”


    The chauffeur was startled by her words. “You want to say goodbye?”


    “Mm–hmm.” udia nodded pitifully.


    The chauffeur was surprised. After looking back at the car, he nodded.


    “Alright, given your special circumstances, I’ll go talk to him.”


    “Thank you so much, sir.”


    The chauffeur got back in the car. Seeing hime back so quickly without


    getting rid of udia, ric said with a frown, “She won’t go? Just call


    Terrance and tell him toe here and deal with it.”


    “No, that’s not the case.” The chauffeur subconsciously waved his hand. “Mr.


    Cadogan, the thing is, Miss Johnson really seems to have something else to


    talk to you about.”


    ric pursed his lips in displeasure. What else could she want to talk to me


    about? She’s just not giving up, that’s all.

    To his surprise, the chauffeur said the next second, “Miss Johnson says she’s


    here to say goodbye to you.”


    “Say goodbye?”
