A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 193

When Emily tried to take a peek inside the ward, she caught the sight of a girl sitting on a bed. She was sweet and pretty, but her face was pale as ice. She had a smart disposition, as if the whole universe was hidden behind her breathtakingly pure eyes.

"Victor, when can I go out?" asked the girl.

Victor looked at her tenderly, as if he could only see her in his eyes. "Soon," he replied.

"What do you mean by 'soon'?"

"A few days later, if everything goes accordingly."

Anne laughed, and winked at him. "Can I meet the kind-hearted donator you told me about?" she asked.

Victor froze for a second, but he showed no change in his facial expression. "Sorry, the donator wants to protect her privacy. I can't fulfil your wish," he said plainly.

"I see," Anne replied, reluctantly. Anne was disheartened by Victor's words. She looked down as if she were upset, but it was hard to determined whether she believed Victor's words or not.

"But we can break some rules for you today. You can have half of my strawberry cake," he said. Victor cautiously changed the topic. Seeing the satisfaction in her face, he gradually smiled at her.

As a matter of fact, he was lying to her, but he had no regrets.

Hiding outside of the ward, Emily gasped, as her eyes widened with astonishment. She had never seen Victor act like that before, and the tenderness in his eyes was overwhelming. He was like a chocolate lava cake, hard on the outside, but soft on the inside.

'I have never seen this side of Victor.

Who would have guessed that he wasn't actually such a heartless person?

What kind of person could bring out Victor's tenderness? She must be someone very dear and important to him.'

"Who's there?" Emily's thoughts were interrupted by the voice of a female that came from inside the ward. As soon as she looked up, her eyes met the curious eyes of a young girl looking at her through the half-open door.

She tried to sneak away, but it was too late. Once Victor heard the girl's words, he stretched his long leg and caught Emily immediately.

"What are you doing here?" asked Victor.

Emily had no valid explanation, but she definitely sensed nervousness in Victor's tone. "... Nothing. I was just wandering around," she replied.

"Let me walk you back right now," said Victor.

"Never mind. I can walk back by myself. Don't worry. There's nowhere I can run. Why don't you go back to the girl inside..." Before Emily could finish her words, Victor grabbed her arm and walked out immediately. "... Fine," said Emily.

Not like she could have done anything about it anyway. Emily was helpless. That was very clear.

Meanwhile, the nurse in charge of Emily went crazy looking for her everywhere. When she saw Emily walking back with Victor, she felt relieved, but she kept blaming Emily.

"Watch her carefully," asserted Victor. After instructing the staff member, Victor turned to Emily with a stern look on his face. He stressed his tone, and said,"Don't wander off to places you don't belong in."

'You mean don't visit the person you are hiding from me, ' she mused.

Emily didn't make any promises to him. Instead she looked straight at him and asked,"Victor, are you still unwilling to tell me the truth?"

This time, Emily didn't call him Mr. Victor as she did before.

Victor sighed. "What kind of truth do you want to hear?" he asked her.
