Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria) novel Chapter 151

Chapter 151
Alaric narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Who are you to tell me she doesn’t
want to follow me?”
“You’re right.” Bane smiled but was not angry, so he looked at Victoria
instead. “If that’s how you want it, let’s get Snowball to tell you herself.”
Snowball. That’s Victoria’s nickname. Alaric glared at her. Was it possible.
that the person she chose was Bane? Was that why she let him call her by
her nickname?
Meanwhile, Victoria felt a pang in her heart. She knew Bane was helping
her by letting her end things with Alaric so that she could successfully get
divorced.
Yet, when she looked at Alaric, she pursed her lips. She should take this
opportunity, but just as she moved her lips, wanting to say something, he
gritted his teeth and glared at her. “Victoria, you’d better think about what
to say.”
Having been interrupted, she was stunned.
Bane raised an eyebrow and said, “Al, should I remind you that you guys are
Chapter 151 Don’t Touch Me
in a fake marriage? What you’re doing now is threatening and intimidating
her.” Once he finished, he smiled and turned to Victoria. “Snowball.”
She knew Bane called her name to urge her to make a decision. Otherwise,
there was no telling when such a chance would appear again. However, she
could not bring herself to say anything while looking at Alaric. I wanna say
it, but I just can’t.
In the end, Alaric grabbed her hand and demanded, “Follow me home, and
I’ll forget about all of this.”
Victoria was pulled a few steps forward when she felt a tight grip on her
wrist-Bane held her back. At that moment, he seemed less gentle with his
glasses on. It was also then that she noticed a trace of harshness hidden in
his eyes.
When Alaric saw Bane’s action, he narrowed his eyes and roared, “Let her
go!”
Perhaps it was Victoria’s constant urge to get a divorce and the fact that
Alaric had watched Bane hugging her; she did not push him away and even
let him call her by her nickname, Snowball. Also, Alaric might have been
provoked by this incident, causing him to lose his calm.

Seeing that Bane was not letting go, Alaric frowned while approaching
them, wanting to pull Bane’s hand away. He had only raised his hand when
a small figure blocked him, prompting his fingers to hang in midair.
His cold eyes were calm but looked sharp and red from anger. “Are you
protecting him?”
When facing Alaric’s piercing gaze, Victoria took a deep breath and spoke,
“That’s between us. You have no reason to hurt him.”
Alaric looked at her with his gloomy eyes. “Are you heartbroken because
I’m about to hit him? Is that why you’re protecting him?”
After a silence, she suggested, “Let’s talk about this at home, okay?”
He had been avoiding her recently, and they needed to talk, but it seemed
like they could not end on good terms.
Smiling, Alaric released his grip and gave her a sarcastic smile. “Sure. I’d
like to have a chat with you too.”

Seeing that he had agreed, Victoria finally felt relieved. She could notice his
unstable state, and if this situation persisted, he might get violent with
Chapter 151 Don’t Touch Me
Bane. Since she was asking for a divorce, it made no sense for Bane to keep
getting beaten up because of her. She already félt sorry for him when he
took those two punches earlier.
At that moment, Alaric swept his gaze across Bane’s face and fixed it on his
wrist. “I’ll say this one last time. Let go.”
When Victoria heard that, she immediately turned to Bane and explained,
“Let me deal with this myself.”
At that, he quietly looked at her for a moment before smiling again. “Sure.
I’ll wait for you.” Once he was done, he let go of her, after which Alaric
dragged her away.
Once they were gone, Bane’s assistant entered and gave him a
handkerchief. “Mr. Morison, are you all right?”
An
Emotionlessly, Bane took the handkerchief and wiped the corner of his lips
as his eyes filled with coldness and anger. The spot Alaric hit him was
wounded, but he erased it heavily again as though he could not feel any
pain. His act of a painless corpse caused his assistant’s gaze to waver when
noticing how Bane was acting. There he goes again. Mr. Morison looks like…
Chapter 151 Don’t Touch Me
The assistant dared not speak, so he stood by the side and quietly waited
for Bane. A while later, Bane threw the handkerchief into the trash and
asked coldly, “How are the preparations for the things I asked for?”
The assistant nodded. “Don’t worry, Mr. Morison. There won’t be any
delays.”
Everything went past like a gust of wind when Victoria was dragged away.
Before she could make sense of the situation, she was already inside
Alaric’s car, speeding all the way home.
Upon arrival, she remained in a state of shock. However, the man gave her
no time to rest or recover. He held her hands and brought her to their bed
before pinning her struggling arms to both sides. Then, he gnashed his
teeth while looking at her angrily. “Trying to divorce me so that you can be
with Bane? I don’t think so.”
Once he finished, his hot breath came down on her. Just as his lips were
about to touch hers, she turned her head in time, and his soft but cold lips
landed on her cheek.
He stopped for a second before moving to the side in search of her lips, but

she dodged while chastising, “Alaric, what are you trying to do? Don’t touch
me!”
In the end, he would follow her everywhere she dodged. After a while, the
entangled bodies began to grow warmer.
She panted. “Didn’t you say you want to have a good chat with me?”
When Alaric heard that, he looked at her and replied sarcastically, “Aren’t
we currently in a deep chat?” While speaking, he pinched her jaw to stop
her from moving. Then, he looked at her tightly pursed lips with his black
eyes before roughly covering them with his.
“Ouch.” Victoria felt the pain and used her unrestrained hand to push him.
However, all of that was nothing before an angry Alaric. Moreover, her
strength was nothing compared to him. He added more force to his actions,
and everything got out of control. The deep kisses rendered her unable to
breathe.
After who knew how long, he finally retreated briefly to give her some
space to breathe, afraid she would suffocate. Meanwhile, she took the
opportunity to inhale deep breaths.

When the man leaned in again, she slapped him. “I hate it when you act like
this. Do you know that?”

His face was struck to the side.
“Who do you think you are? Do you think you can kiss or touch me at will?
What right do you have to do that? Our whole marriage is a facade!”
