Came Back as an Heiress After My Ex-Fiancé Made Me Blind novel Chapter 420

The man's heart was startled. His first reaction was to struggle out, but he shook his wrist twice, unable to break free.

Looking up, the person holding his wrist was Victoria!

She was a woman...how could she be so strong?

The man struggled again, but still couldn't move a bit. Moreover, his wrist was being grasped so tightly that it hurt, stuttering:

"Miss... Miss Preston, what are you doing?"

The man dared not disrespect Victoria's identity.

Victoria's eyes were sharp as he looked at his hand that was holding onto Natasha, signaling him to let go.

The man insisted, "Miss Preston, this is between me and my fiancée. Don't worry about it."

Victoria's eyes flickered, and her hand suddenly tightened.

The man's face turned pale from the pain, and Victoria's grip on his wrist was so painful that his bones were about to split open.

"Miss... Miss Preston!"

The man immediately surrendered, grimacing in pain, "I'll let go! I'll let go of her right away!!"

Without daring to delay for a second, he quickly released the hand restraining Natasha.

Natasha gained her freedom, but her wrist bore a glaring red mark from being grasped by the man.

Elizabeth quickly pulled Natasha away from the man.

The man didn't dare to offend Victoria, so he quickly pleaded for mercy, "Miss Preston, I know I was wrong, can you let me go? I won't dare to harass Natasha anymore!"

Victoria looked at him, "Remember what you said."

It wasn't until the man was sweating profusely from the pain that Victoria slowly released her grip.

The man glanced at Natasha, then nervously at Victoria, clutching his almost broken wrist, not daring to say a word, and scurried away.

Victoria turned around and looked at the red-eyed Natasha, asking softly, "Are you alright?"

Natasha stared at her blankly, her pupils trembling violently. When she was helpless and panicked just now, it was Victoria who suddenly appeared and helped her...

Natasha blinked her eyelashes moistened by tears, and choked up, "Thank you."

Victoria couldn't stand seeing such a girl cry.

She reached out to wipe her tears, "It's okay, no need to thank me."

Elizabeth cursed indignantly, "That man has no shame! I heard him say just now... fiancée... what's going on?"

She remembered that Natasha used to like Travis very much and had been pursuing him.

Why did she become someone else's fiancée?

Natasha took a deep breath, feeling a lot calmer now, and said desolately, "Our families are considering a marriage alliance, but it's still under discussion, nothing has been finalized yet."

"Marriage Alliance?" Elizabeth asked in astonishment.

Natasha nodded, glancing at the sons and daughters of wealthy families in the banquet hall, "Many people in the banquet hall cannot freely choose their marriages. For the sake of family interests, marriage has become a collaboration. Only those children who are loved enough by their parents, or whose families are powerful enough to disregard everything, can freely choose their marriages."

Natasha said, looking at Victoria,

Like the Preston family and the Moore family, they were already powerful, and with their parents' love and favor, their children could choose their partners without any hindrance.

There are indeed many instances of marriage alliances in the upper-class circles, which Elizabeth understood, but...

"Don't you like Travis?" Elizabeth asked.

Natasha's eyes darkened. She was silent for a few seconds before she smiled helplessly.

However, it was more bitter.

"He does not like me." Natasha whispered five words."

Only five words, but they contained the greatest helplessness.

She had been chasing after Travis, trying hard to pursue him passionately, but no matter what, Travis didn't like her.

Victoria pursed lips, having met Natasha a few times before.

In the past, Natasha was charming and beautiful, passionate and bold, fearlessly expressing her love for Travis in public.

The current Natasha seemed to have had her lively soul sucked away, surrounded by loneliness and sadness...

Elizabeth also felt sad. Would Natasha obey her parents' arrangements and marry a man she didn't love?

Suddenly, Victoria asked softly, "Does Travis know about your marriage arrangement?"

Natasha shook her head, "I didn't tell him."
