Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria) novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103 You Will Always Be the One I Love 

Chapter 103 

Afterward, Victoria found time to go to the restroom to relieve the 

awkwardness.

When she came out to the corridor outside the restroom, she 

unexpectedly ran into someone she knew. She stopped in her tracks when 

she looked at the sullen–faced young lady. 

Victoria didn’t exactly know the girl, but they did meet once at the hospital 

before. 

It was Samantha’s daughter, Sandy. 

Victoria bumped into Samantha at the time she went to the hospital to 

end her pregnancy. If it weren’t for Sandy’s situation, Samantha probably 

would have told the world about Victoria’s situation. 

Seeing Sandy reminded Victoria of the day at the hospital when the girl

firmly told Samantha that she was in love with someone.

Presently, she was not here alone. There was a tall, lean, and handsome 

man standing in front of her. 

The man stooped to grab her by her shoulders, seemingly pleading as he 

spoke. 

“I’m begging you, Sandy. Please abort the pregnancy. You are still young. You can’t just drop out of school and have a baby now, can you? Besides, 

I’m not ready to be a father. Give me some more time and we will have a 

child someday in the future, alright?” 

Victoria only heard the conversation after she got closer to them, and 

when she did, she was at a loss for words as she cast the man a glance. 

However, the two of them were so engrossed in their conversation that 

they didn’t notice the people around them.

“But that wasn’t what you said before! Weren’t you the one who said that 

we would get married if I got pregnant? Don’t you like me? What’s wrong 

with becoming a father ahead of time?” 

“I do like you, Sandy, but your parents don’t like me. We need time to work 

things out. Think about it. If you have a child now, your parents would only dislike me even more. Will we have a chance to be together in the future?” 

Sandy must have been swayed by his words at this point, as she didn’t 

say anything in reply. 

When the tall man noticed her hesitation, he gave it another push. “Look, 

we are young and we can have a child anytime we want in the future. 

Didn’t you say that you can do anything for me? I’m at fault this time, but 

just this one time… Do it for me, okay?” 

Victoria pressed her lips together when she realized that the man was a sc*mbag. What does he mean by asking her to do it for him? And he is

even trying to manipulate her into doing everything he wants for him? 

Delusional *sshole. 

Still, this wasn’t her business to stick her nose in. 

Everyone had their own destiny and path to follow. 

Victoria walked past the two of them apathetically. When she was some 

distance away, she heard the girl say in a faint voice, “O–Okay… I’ll do as 

you say…” 

She promptly stopped walking and quietly sighed. Is this what it means to 

be blinded by love? 

Judging from the sidelines, she thought that the girl was pitiful for being 

deceived by the man. But what about me? Have I stepped back and taken 

a good look at myself? Do I look like a clown, sticking to Alaric and being 

his fake wife?

After Victoria got back to the dining table, she became lost in her thoughts 

and started spacing out. 

When they were almost done eating, she went to the front desk to pay the 

bill before they left. 

“Miss, the gentleman at your table has settled the bill already,” the staff 

informed her. 

When Victoria heard this, she paused for a moment before asking, “How 

much was it?” 

She then went back to the table and told Bane about wanting to transfer 

him the amount he paid for her. 

“You want to transfer money to me?” Bane chuckled and languidly purred, 

“You can just tell me that you want my phone number. We have known 

each other for too many years for you to beat around the bush.”

Victoria only huffed after a while. “Who said anything about wanting your 

number?” 

“What do you want, then?” 

“We agreed that I will treat you.” She raised her chin toward his phone. 

“There’s no need to give me your number. Just show me your payment 

code so I can scan it.” 

As she spoke, Bane flicked her outstretched hand. “You insisted on paying 

last time. There is no place for my dignity if you succeed in paying this 

time.” 

Victoria’s eyebrows furrowed lightly. 

“If you still feel bad about it, you should resign and come work at the 

Morison Corporation.” 

“Ah… Don’t you think you are going a little off–topic?”

“Am I?” Bane lowered his gaze, seemingly contemplating. “But as you said, 

I do want to steal you.” 

“You expect me to switch to another company with just a meal? Nice try.” 

She then put away her phone and didn’t insist on transferring the money 

to him. I’ll let him pay if he wants to. After all, the heir of the Morison 

Corporation doesn’t lack this amount of money. I’d better keep my money 

for my future child. 

“Indeed, a single meal might not be enough to win you over. It seems I’ll 

have to ‘accidentally‘ run into you a few more times from now on, hmm?” 

Victoria had noticed that Bane had become much more light–hearted 

than before. 

Every word he said in the past would only leave her infuriated. He was a 

completely different person back then, so he must have matured after 

spending all these years abroad.

After a few minutes, he offered to send her back to the company, which 

she rejected immediately. 

“It’s fine. The company is not far from here. I can get a cab in no time.” 

Bane seemed taken aback for a mornent, but he didn’t insist on it. He 

simply nodded and uttered, “All right, then.” 

The two of them proceeded to leave the restaurant together. 

As they went out the door, Victoria caught sight of the tall and thin guy she 

had encountered in the corridor earlier–it was Sandy’s boyfriend. 

They are still here? she wondered as she took a glance at them. However,
