Chapter 358
“What?” Since ric’s voice was low, Victoria couldn’t hear what he was
talking about with the water running. Thus, she crouched down and asked
again, “What did you just say?”
ric stared at her intently and replied, “Where did these clothese
from?” After all, there was no man in her house, so where would the clothes

This time, Victoria heard his words clearly. She paused and was about to say
something when ric said sulkily, “I don’t want to wear someone else’s
clothes.”
Hearing his words, Victoria was speechless. Judging by his reaction, is he
refusing to wear the clothes because he thought it was someone else?
Thinking about it, she smirked coldly and said, “Fine then. Don’t wear it. Just sit
here for all I care. I will call your assistant and tell him to pick you up.” There
was no way she would agree to his silly request when he had disturbed her in
the middle of the night.
After she had finished her words, she was about to leave when she felt a tug

on the hem of her shirt. She turned around and saw ric gripping her shirt.
“What are you doing?” asked Victoria while frowning.

ric lowered his eyes, and his eyshes still had water droplets. “Please
don’t kick me out. I’ll wear it.”
Victoria felt her breath hitched. Looking at his miserable state, she felt she
had mistreated him. She kept quiet and pinched the bridge of her nose. “Let
go.” Good Lord!
“Are you going to ask me to leave?”
“Why are you staying here? Don’t you have a home to go to? Your
temperature has already turned normal. You are fine,” said Victoria.
“Are you going to kick me out just because I’m fine?”
“What else do you expect?”
“Okay.” ric threw the showerhead away. “I’m not going to rinse myself with
hot water.”
Victoria was speechless as she looked at him in shock. She never knew that

he could be so shameless.

In the meantime, ric had already got the taste of acting pity, just like what
happened at the hospital. At that moment, he also realized that Victoria
would only acknowledge him if he were miserable. Otherwise, she would
definitely ignore him.
Although it was pathetic to act miserable, he had no choice but to do so.
Thus, he had made up his mind and tugged on her even harder. “Will I be sick
if I sit here all night long? Will you care for me if I’m sick?”
Hearing his words, Victoria knew what he was nning and looked at him.
speechlessly. “Are you trying to trick me, ric? Do you think I will let you stay
if you are sick?”
“Yes.” ric nodded,
Victoria was speechless. Forget it. I can’t argue with him since he is already
shameless.
“Just get up and change your clothes.”
ric pursed his lips at her words. Although he was unhappy, he slowly stood

When ric stood before Victoria, thetter noticed his shirt sticking closely
to his body. When Victoria’s eyes trailed downward, she quickly averted her
gaze. “Hurry up. I’m leaving.”
As ric watched her leave in a hurry, he lowered his gaze and chuckled
deeply. However, when his eyes fixated on the clothes, he stopped smiling
and only had one thought in his mind–Whose clothes are these? There is no
way she would have guessed I would being, right?
ric clutched onto thest hope as he wore the clothes. However, his face
turned grim immediately when he felt the clothes were bigger than his. The
good thing was that the clothes had no smell, so nobody had worn them.

made ric upset.
Could it be that it’s for Mervin? Are they that close?
Jealousy filled ric’s mind as he thought about it.
“What are you dilly–dallying inside?”
ric returned to his senses when Victoria’s voice rang from the other end of
the door. When he stepped out of the room, she eyed him up and down
thoughtfully.

It looks like the clothes are still too big for him.
Thinking about it, she nodded and said, “Although the clothes are kind of big,
you just have to endure it.” Then, she gave him a jacket. “Here’s my coat.
Come on and wear it.”
Hearing her words, ric took it from her. Her coat was slightly oversized
since she needed to wear it underyering pieces. Her scent still lingered on
the coat, surrounding ric as he wore it. However, he was still upset about
the clothes. Thus, he walked toward her and whispered, “Whom are you
preparing for these clothes?”
Victoria stopped what she was doing and looked at him. “Do you really want
to know?”
ric stared at her in silence. Victoria looked at him momentarily before
saying, “It’s for Mervin.”
In that split second, ric’s expression darkened. “What did you say?”
“What’s wrong? I thought you hoped I would say his name since you keep
bugging me.”
ric kept quiet.
“Are you satisfied now?” Then, she pointed at the water cooler. “Go and grab
yourself a ss of warm water. You seem capable enough to do so.”
“The drug hasn’t worn off yet,” replied ric.
Victoria gave him side–eyes.
“Can I sleep on the couch?”
“Do you expect I would allow you to enter the room?”
ric looked at her with a pale face. “If you agree…”
“No. Just keep quiet and sleep on the couch. It’s gettingte now, and the
children still have to go to school tomorrow.”
Looking in the direction where Victoria had pointed, ric pursed his lips and
lowered his eyes. “Okay.”
After Victoria had left, ric sat on the couch. The room was quiet, and he
was still warm from the hot shower. However, his heart seemed to be as cold
as Antarctica. He lowered his head and stared at his clothes with death
res. The thought of Victoria preparing the clothes for Mervin made him
want to throw them out. Sadly, he could do nothing.
On second thought, it’s fine if it’s for Mervin. After all, I am the one who is
wearing the clothes and staying by her side. Thinking about it, ric rxed
and felt happy. Never would he expect that this could turn into a blessing in
disguise. However, as he thought about what udia did, coldness filled his
eyes.
