Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria) novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350 

In the end, Victoria hung up on Alaric feeling rather flustered. 

She was feeling extremely complicated as she leaned back in her office hair 

The terms she spelled out were undeniably unfair to Alaric. 

She wanted him to spend his time and his money caring for the children without 

getting anything in return. He wouldn’t have custody of them, and they wouldn’t 

address him as their father. 

In a way, he was basically raising someone else’s children. 

Even though they were related to him by blood, their last name was Selwyn, and they 

weren’t going to call him their father. 

Considering his power and status, he could easily refuse to agree to her terms and 

strong–arm her into doing what he wanted. 

Instead, he agreed to everything, and even…. 

Victoria rubbed her forehead and gave herself a warning.

“This is just a vicious ploy of his. You can’t trust him so easily. Don’t forget about the

pain just because the wounds have healed. Everything’s in the past. He’s no longer the 

Alaric you knew when you were little.” 

Victoria kept lecturing herself until she finally stopped her heart from being swayed. 

Once she regained her composure, she threw herself back into her work. 

When it was time to get off work, Victoria packed up and headed down only to spot a 

familiar black car stopped outside the building. It was clearly waiting for her. 

Alaric was leaning against the side of the car. He was drawing quite a number of eyes. 

It was the end of the day, and people were getting off work. Most people recognized 

Alaric. They were so shocked to see him that they stopped and gathered together to 

discuss his presence. 

Victoria was behind them. When she saw what was happening, she immediately took a 

few steps back and ducked into a corner. 

She didn’t notice that Alaric just so happened to look over in her direction and spotted 

her mad dash for cover.

Victoria exhaled relief when she was safely hidden in the corner. 

He’s impossible. I thought we already settled everything. Why does he keep going 

against what we agreed on? Why did he come here to my office? 

Does he want everyone to know about our history?

Just then, Victoria’s phone started ringing. Once she saw the name on the screen, she 

immediately put her phone on silent. She didn’t want to take the call. 

Hang on… Isn’t he out there waiting for me? 

Why did he suddenly call me? Did he see me just now? 

If he did see me… 

Victoria frowned and answered the call. 

“Why did you run off after spotting me?” 

True enough, as soon as the call connected, Victoria heard Alaric questioning her. 

No wonder he called me. He spotted me earlier.

Victoria leaned against the wall and asked curtly, “Why did you come here? 

“I brought a signed copy of the agreement over, and since I’ll be passing through the 

area, I’ll give you a ride home too.” 

“Passing through?” 

Victoria didn’t see any sign of him simply intending to pass through the area. 

Her doubtful remark made Alaric change his answer. “Alright. I came to pick you up, 

and since I was coming over anyway, I decided to bring the agreement along too.” 

Victoria was speechless. 

She took a deep breath to calm herself down before she allowed herself to smile stiffly. 

“I thought we had an agreement, Alaric.” 

“Mhrn,” he hummed in acknowledgment. 

“What are you doing now, then? You asked me to look at the design plans this morning, 

and 

you brought the agreement over now. What’s it going to be tomorrow? Are you 

going to come up with all sorts of excuses to show up in front of me every day?”

Alaric didn’t respond, but from the looks of it, it seemed like he was silently affirming 

what she said.

Victoria was deeply frustrated. She sighed and said, “I only agreed to let you help out 

with the children for their sakes. I don’t want to have anything to do with you. You don’t 

need to pick me up from work. It’s affecting my life. Understood?” 

“Understood,” he responded sullenly. 

However, Victoria wasn’t relieved by his answer. He sounded too strange. Even though 

he said he understood, she got a feeling that he was still going to do whatever he 

wanted. 

True enough, Alaric continued, “But I don’t think I affected your life.” 

Victoria was dumbfounded. 

“How’s this not affecting my life?” 

Alaric remained silent for a while before announcing, “Regardless of whether I pick your 

up, you’ll still need to take the children to school and get off work. If I come over, you’ll 

be able to save on petrol and breakfast expenses.” 

He had paid for breakfast.

“Are you saying that I should be thanking you right now?” Victoria retorted. 

“There’s no need for that,” Alaric refuted in all seriousness. “It’s only right for me to help 

out the mother of my children.” 

Victoria could feel her blood boiling. 

She had no desire to talk to him. 

“Come out. I’m waiting for you.” 

Just in case she refused, Alaric even added, “Don’t keep the children waiting.” 

Victoria was dumbstruck. 

He knew exactly what to use against her. 

Nonetheless, she didn’t want to get into his car right in front of the crowd. 

Alaric seemed to have read her mind as he suddenly commented, “Once we sign the 

agreement, there’ll be a lot of such instances. Everyone will find out about my 

relationship with the children sooner or later. You can’t keep it hidden forever.” 

He was right, of course.

“Fine.” 

Victoria hung up in annoyance and headed over to Alaric under everyone’s shocked 

gazes. 

A smile crept across Alaric’s face when he spotted her. He courteously opened the 

door for her like a peacock strutting around with his fan of feathers all spread out. 

In order to avoid the stares from the company employees, Victoria swiftly got into the
