Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria) novel Chapter 358

Chapter 358 

“What?” Since Alaric’s voice was low, Victoria couldn’t hear what he was 

talking about with the water running. Thus, she crouched down and asked 

again, “What did you just say?” 

Alaric stared at her intently and replied, “Where did these clothes come 

from?” After all, there was no man in her house, so where would the clothes 

come from?

This time, Victoria heard his words clearly. She paused and was about to say 

something when Alaric said sulkily, “I don’t want to wear someone else’s 

clothes.” 

Hearing his words, Victoria was speechless. Judging by his reaction, is he 

refusing to wear the clothes because he thought it was someone else? 

Thinking about it, she smirked coldly and said, “Fine then. Don’t wear it. Just sit 

here for all I care. I will call your assistant and tell him to pick you up.” There 

was no way she would agree to his silly request when he had disturbed her in 

the middle of the night. 

After she had finished her words, she was about to leave when she felt a tug

on the hem of her shirt. She turned around and saw Alaric gripping her shirt. 

“What are you doing?” asked Victoria while frowning.

Alaric lowered his eyes, and his eyelashes still had water droplets. “Please 

don’t kick me out. I’ll wear it.” 

Victoria felt her breath hitched. Looking at his miserable state, she felt she 

had mistreated him. She kept quiet and pinched the bridge of her nose. “Let 

go.” Good Lord! 

“Are you going to ask me to leave?” 

“Why are you staying here? Don’t you have a home to go to? Your 

temperature has already turned normal. You are fine,” said Victoria. 

“Are you going to kick me out just because I’m fine?” 

“What else do you expect?” 

“Okay.” Alaric threw the showerhead away. “I’m not going to rinse myself with 

hot water.” 

Victoria was speechless as she looked at him in shock. She never knew that

he could be so shameless.

In the meantime, Alaric had already got the taste of acting pity, just like what 

happened at the hospital. At that moment, he also realized that Victoria 

would only acknowledge him if he were miserable. Otherwise, she would 

definitely ignore him. 

Although it was pathetic to act miserable, he had no choice but to do so. 

Thus, he had made up his mind and tugged on her even harder. “Will I be sick 

if I sit here all night long? Will you care for me if I’m sick?” 

Hearing his words, Victoria knew what he was planning and looked at him. 

speechlessly. “Are you trying to trick me, Alaric? Do you think I will let you stay 

if you are sick?” 

“Yes.” Alaric nodded, 

Victoria was speechless. Forget it. I can’t argue with him since he is already 

shameless. 

“Just get up and change your clothes.” 

Alaric pursed his lips at her words. Although he was unhappy, he slowly stood

When Alaric stood before Victoria, the latter noticed his shirt sticking closely 

to his body. When Victoria’s eyes trailed downward, she quickly averted her 

gaze. “Hurry up. I’m leaving.” 

As Alaric watched her leave in a hurry, he lowered his gaze and chuckled 

deeply. However, when his eyes fixated on the clothes, he stopped smiling 

and only had one thought in his mind–Whose clothes are these? There is no 

way she would have guessed I would be coming, right? 

Alaric clutched onto the last hope as he wore the clothes. However, his face 

turned grim immediately when he felt the clothes were bigger than his. The 

good thing was that the clothes had no smell, so nobody had worn them. 

before. Still, just the thought of Victoria preparing clothes for someone else. 

made Alaric upset. 

Could it be that it’s for Mervin? Are they that close? 

Jealousy filled Alaric’s mind as he thought about it. 

“What are you dilly–dallying inside?” 

ミ 

Alaric returned to his senses when Victoria’s voice rang from the other end of 

the door. When he stepped out of the room, she eyed him up and down 

thoughtfully. 

It looks like the clothes are still too big for him. 

Thinking about it, she nodded and said, “Although the clothes are kind of big, 

you just have to endure it.” Then, she gave him a jacket. “Here’s my coat. 

Come on and wear it.” 

Hearing her words, Alaric took it from her. Her coat was slightly oversized 

since she needed to wear it under layering pieces. Her scent still lingered on 

the coat, surrounding Alaric as he wore it. However, he was still upset about 

the clothes. Thus, he walked toward her and whispered, “Whom are you 

preparing for these clothes?” 

Victoria stopped what she was doing and looked at him. “Do you really want 

to know?”
