Chapter 500

    Chapter 500


    Ethan nced outside, his gaze lingering for a moment before he mustered the courage to speak, “It’s


    alright. Go ahead and share your thoughts. They will return in due time, and I will handle the situation


    as it unfolds.”


    Victoria had carefully considered Ethan’s words after their conversation yesterday. If she truly wanted


    to persuade Bane to let her leave this ce, she realized that being


    passive was not an option. Not only would her chances of escape diminish, but his


    psychological issues would remain unresolved.


    Observing the rity in her eyes and her newfound determination, Ethan could tell that


    she had devised a n of action. That was more valuable than anything else because


    as long as she was alive, there was hope for everything.


    “Very well. Since you have your thoughts and decisions, let us proceed ording to


    your n.”


    As they awaited Bane and Jessie’s return, they continued their discussion about her


    children. While he was not entirely certain about the dynamics between her and ric,


    he had witnessed their interactions with the children over the past five years.


    Therefore, he had plenty to share on the topic of her offspring.


    Victoria disyed evident interest in the subject of her children. Though Ethan maintained a neutral


    expression, she hung onto every word he uttered, men tally

    picturing her children’s personalities, faces, and appearances based on his


    descriptions. The more she imagined, the warmer her countenance became,


    After conversing for a while, he noticed Bane’s absence and told her, “Miss Selwyn, let’s


    pause here for today, I shouldn’t overstay my wee.”


    “Are you not going to say anything more?” She felt a tinge of disappointment and


    pursed her lips, hoping for further revtions.


    Although reluctant, she realized that Ethan had already devoted a considerable amount


    of time to their discussion, so she reluctantly let go of her expectations.


    Once he departed, she settled onto the couch and reflected upon the information he


    had shared about her children. The more she contemted, the brighter her mood


    became.


    After some time, Jessie returned to the room. As she entered, Victoria remained unaware and

    unintentionally revealed a faint smile on her lips. Caught off guard, Jessie hesitated and rubbed her


    eyes, half-expecting her perception to deceive her. However, the smile remained, confirming what she


    had seen.


    She blinked, a bit slow to react. Does seeing a psychologist have such a rapid effect? Just days ago,


    she was reluctant to speak, but now, she’s willing to open up and even


    smile?


    Chapter 500 Let Him Worry And Be Anxious For You


    For some reason, Jessie sensed that this matter was not as simple as it appeared and


    had little to do with Benjamin, the psychologist. With this suspicion in mind, she


    approached Victoria and cautiously asked, “Miss Selwyn, you’re smiling?”


    Lost in her thoughts, Victoria had not noticed Jessie’s presence until she heard her


    voice. The smile vanished from her face in an instant as if it had never been there.


    In that split second, Jessie almost doubted what she had witnessed, the speed at


    which the smile disappeared, leaving her momentarily uncertain.


    “You’re back,” Victoria said, swiftly regaining herposure.

    Jessie simply nodded in response. “Mr. Morison and Dr. Lawson are still talking. I don’t


    know what they’re discussing. If I could eavesdrop, I cane back and inform you.”


    Victoria observed Jessie, who had been taking care of her attentively during this


    period. When she had initially requested Jessie’s help, it was not only because they


    hailed from the same country but also because Jessie appeared delicate and


    vulnerable. Victoria knew that if she had to flee or make any resistant moves, she could


    not protect herself.


    However, Jessie’s kindness and support exceeded Victoria’s expectations. Despite


    Bane being the one who paid her sry, she seemed more aligned with Victoria’s


    interests.

    ‘By the way, I haven’t informed Mr. Morison about your improved appetite these past


    few days. Let him worry about you,” Jessie remarked as if perceiving Victoria’s


    thoughts.


    She curved her lips and smiled genuinely at Jessie. “Thank you.”


    Jessie did not misinterpret this time. Victoria did genuinely smile, and she smiled in


    return. With this, will Miss Selwyn be okay from now on?


    “Miss Selwyn, there’s no need to be so polite. I’ll take good care of you. It will be like this


    every day from now on,” she assured her.


    Every day? Victoria lowered her gaze and remained silent. If possible, she wanted to escape this ce


    as soon as she could. Once she left, she would not have to face


    these people ever again.


    Without responding to her words, Victoria allowed her to continue talking.


    “Miss Selwyn, I was genuinely scared when you refused to eat for those few days.” Jessie brought up


    the recent past, leaving Victoria at a loss for words. If Ethan had not shared information about her


    children, she might have continued on that path.


    The thought of her children’s well-being, if anything happened to her, sent shivers down her spine.


    Losing one’s willpower was truly terrifying.


    Chapter 500 Let Him Worry And Be Anxious For You


    Lost in her thoughts, Victoria pursed her lips and asked softly, “How long will their


    conversationst? When they’re finished, please inform Bane that I would like to see


    him.”


    Jessie’s surprise was evident in her voice. “Miss Selwyn, are you finally willing to see


    Mr. Morison? You’ve been avoiding him every time he attempted to meet with you.”


    Indeed, some matters needed to be resolved for Victoria to move forward. She desired


    to escape this ce and could not keep evading him.


    Afterward, Jessie left to call Bane as soon as he finished speaking with Benjamin. She


    waited by the door, expecting his prompt arrival. However, time stretched on, and he did


    not emerge. Her curiosity grew, and she could not resist it any longer. Why are they


    conversing for such a prolonged period?


    After nearly an hour of waiting, Jessie could bear it no longer and decided to knock on


    the study door.


    Knock, knock-


    With her first knock, there was no response from inside, so she knocked again.


    “Who is it?” Then came a cold voice from within after a brief silence.


    She was taken aback by the icy tone but gathered her courage to speak, “M-Mr.


    Chapter 500 Let Him Worry And Be Anxious For You


    Morison, it’s me.”


    There was another moment of silence from inside, and eventually, the door swung


    open.


    Upon seeing Bane, Jessie intended to inform him that Victoria wanted to see him.


    However, before she could utter a word, he interjected, “It’s you. How is she?”


    Quickly seizing the opportunity, she chose to answer his question first. “Miss Selwyn


    doesn’t seem to be doing well. She vomited just a moment ago.”


    She was concerned that Bane might summon the doctor if she revealed the truth, so


    she waspelled to fabricate a response on Victoria’s behalf. As anticipated, his


    eyebrows furrowed upon hearing her words. “I see. It’s still not working, huh?”


    Observing him closely, Jessie felt the urge to eavesdrop on, their conversation.


    However, before she could attempt to get closer, she heard his next instruction. “Go


    and tidy her up. Tell her I want to see her.”


    This unexpected turn of events caught her off guard. What day is it today? Miss Selwyn


    had just expressed her desire to see Mr. Morison, and now he, too, expressed his wish


    to meet with her. Perplexed, she simply nodded and replied, “I’ll return and inform her.”


    Since Bane wanted to see Victoria, Jessie decided not to mention her request to see


    Chapter 500 Let Him Worry And Be Anxious For You


    him.
