Chapter 205 

The two exerted a lot of energy when they sent Alaric to the hotel.

After tossing the man onto the bed, Victoria was so exhausted that she kept 

gasping for air as she stood in place. Then, she turned around and glanced at Fiona. 

Fiona instantly understood what she meant. 

“Victoria, can I-” 

“No.” 

Victoria promptly cut the latter off. “Let’s go. It’s time to go back. He’ll be fine here.” 

“He’s drunk, though. Will he be okay in the hotel alone? What if something happens 

to him?” 

Victoria replied, “So? Don’t tell me you want to stay behind and take care of him.” 

Fiona smiled awkwardly. “No. Why don’t we take his phone and call up his friends 

instead? How does that sound?” 

“Do you know how to unlock his phone?”

“No.”

“Then how are you going to make the call?” 

“You have a point.” Fiona twiddled her thumbs, feeling troubled. “It’s worrying to see 

him like this, though.”

“He’s an adult, not a child. Also, he’s just drunk. You’ve gotten drunk a lot in the past, 

haven’t you?” 

That was true, but when she saw someone else in the same predicament, Fiona 

finally realized that she was seriously worried. 

Now, she understood how her parents felt when she got drunk in the past. They 

were extremely worried that something would happen to her. 

Despite her worries, Fiona was slightly more assured when she heard Victoria’s 

reminder. 

After all, she ended up fine after getting drunk. 

Alaric was a man, so what challenges could he possibly face that would be greater 

than hers?

“Well… Alright, then.” 

Fiona left with Victoria, still feeling troubled. 

After they left the hotel, Fiona began to get curious. 

“Say, how do you know that he puts his wallet in his pocket? You seem like you’re 

quite familiar with him. Also, how do you know where he puts his ID card?” 

Fiona recalled the string of events. Back then, Victoria didn’t waste any effort as she 

took out the wallet from the man’s pocket. Most importantly, after she opened the 

wallet, she immediately found the man’s ID card in the second slot. 

If Victoria hadn’t stayed abroad for five years, Fiona would have suspected that the 

two knew each other. 

After all, it was normal to find a wallet in a pocket. 

However, after finding the wallet, Victoria was able to swiftly avoid all sorts of bank. 

cards and VIP cards as she took out the ID card straight away. 

This was very suspicious. 

When Victoria heard that, she paused and said, “If I told you it was just a wild guess,

would you believe me?” 

Fiona blinked, then maintained her focus on Victoria. 

“I’d rather believe my suspicions that you’ve known each other for a long time, and 

you two even dated each other in the past.” 

Victoria fell silent. 

She wondered if she should tell Fiona that the latter had stumbled upon the truth. 

However, before Victoria could speak up, Fiona came up with an excuse herself.

“Still, I’ve always known how capable you are, and you’re very good at observing 

people. Even though I don’t know how you managed to develop those skills, can you 

teach me your secrets in the future? Perhaps, with your tutelage, I could get my 

crush to fall for me.” 

No matter what Fiona talked about, the topic would always go back to Alaric. 

If this went on…. 

After getting into the car, Victoria received a message from Ethan. 

Chapter 205 He Loves You So Much 

“Miss Selwyn, when will you be coming back? We’re considered strangers in the 

land of Jasea, so you shouldn’t stay out too late. Please prioritize your safety.” 

“Got it. I’m on my way back.” 

After Victoria sent the message, Ethan didn’t send any more replies. He seemed to 

have stopped worrying. 

As Victoria put her phone away, she thought of something and asked Fiona, “What 

did you stuff into his pocket just now?” 

When Fiona heard that, she froze, then her gaze instantly became avoidant. 

“What are you talking about? I have no idea what you’re getting at.” 

Victoria didn’t say anything, and she just stared at Fiona silently. Despite that, Fional 

still felt very pressured.

“Alright, I left him a note. I can’t unlock his phone since it requires a passcode, so I 

can’t get his number, but I can still leave him a note with my number, right? After all, I 

helped him tonight, so won’t he treat me as a savior when he wakes up tomorrow 

morning?”

A certain keyword instantly pierced Victoria’s thought. Her expression shifted, then 

she looked away and fell silent. 

After talking for some time, Fiona realized that Victoria wasn’t responding, so she 

turned to look at the latter. 

Fiona hadn’t realized it, but Victoria was already looking out the window. Victoria’s 

reflection could be seen in the window, and her face was void of expression as she 

gave off a desolate aura. 

What’s going on? Fiona thought. 

Was it something I said? 

Fiona was troubled in an instant. She twiddled her thumbs, wondering if she had 

accidentally said something that offended Victoria. 

However, after thinking about it, she couldn’t figure out anything wrong with her 

words just now. 

In the end, Fiona leaned closer to Victoria and asked in a small voice, “Victoria, did I 

say something that upset you?”

Fiona’s voice shook Victoria out of her daze. 

“Nothing.”

When Victoria saw Fiona staring at her worriedly, she realized the woman had been 

in a daze just now. 

“Really?” Fiona put on a doubtful expression. “Just now, you-” 

“Yeah, I was thinking about something just now, so I was kind of in a daze.” 

“Are you really alright? Did I say something just now that upset you?” 

Victoria reached out and pinched Fiona’s cheek. “What can you say that might upset
