Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria) novel Chapter 427

Chapter 427 

Alaric swore to look into Bane’s situation for Victoria, including Ethan’s injuries

His men worked fast

The next morning, she received the latest update on Bane’s condition; he was hurt 

whereas Ethan had vanished

Vanished?Victoria had a bad feeling when she heard that. Back when she was with 

Bane, Ethan had vanished for a few days and only reappeared when she asked after 

him. He had been severely injured back then

She knew he was suffering from multiple injuries, but she did not know the details of 

those injuries

It was not like she could pull his shirt up to check his wounds

Later on, he let her go and even brought her to freedom. He would be met with no 

mercy from Bane when he returned

I wonder how is he doing now

Bane was also injured. Would that infuriate Bane further? Would he end up venting out 

his anger on Ethan

Chapter 427 Well Rescue Him Somehow 

We are not in our home country. What if… 

When that possibility popped up in her mind, she instinctively shot to her feet

Alaric grabbed her hand. Don’t panic just yet.” 

His reminder made her pause and bite her lip. He was right. There was no use 

panicking. What could she even do to help

What do we do now?” 

Her only option was to seek his opinion

He pressed his lips together. He helped you, so that means he helped me. Don’t worry

I’ll rescue him somehow.” 

Terrance forced a smile on his face

Yes, Miss Selwyn. Don’t worry. We’ll keep finding a way.” 

She glanced at them before nodding

I’ll leave him to you.” 

Two days had passed, yet there was no news of Ethan

He seemed to have vanished into thin air

Victoria lost her appetite due to her worry

For the past five years, Ethan was a constant presence by her side

I’ve been instructed by Mr. Morison to drive you home, Miss Selwyn. When do you clock 

off?‘ 

Mr. Morison asked me to bring this to you. Let me know when you’re free so that I can 

deliver it to you.‘ 

Miss Selwyn, please leave the items to me. I’m here to help. If you refuse to let me carry 

anything, Mr. Morison will admonish me.‘ 

It’s raining today, Miss Selwyn. Remember to bring an umbrella with you. It’s also a very 

cold day. Please put on a few more layers.’ 

Her memories of Ethan swam before her eyes, making them go red

While he would always say he was doing it because Bane told him to, he had frankly 

helped her a lot. The last time they saw each other, the help he provided was the 

greatest ever

If not for him, she would still be locked away

The sight of her red rimmed eyes made Torrance nervous. He began to panic. Don’t be upset, Miss Sehvyn. Since he rescued you, he must have been ready for whatever 

would happen to him. He knew what the consequences would be, so” 

His voice drifted off. The more he spoke, the worse his words seemed to sound

The air suddenly felt heavy

Alaric was annoyed to see her upset over someone else. The hands hanging down by 

his sides clenched into fists before eventually relaxing once more

Don’t worry. Sometimes, no news is good news. At the very least, it’s not bad news

right?Alaric said

Mr. Cadogan is right,Terrance promptly agreed. No news is actually the best news

Don’t worry. We’ll keep up the search and rescue him the moment we find him. We’ll do 

our very best!” 

Despite their fervent attempts to reassure her, her mood did not improve at all. She 

continued to lean against the window to blankly stare out into the distance

She just did not get it. How did everything change so drastically? Everyone had been 

going about their days as usual. The situation was now worse than hell

What is it, Mommy?” 

Chapter 427 We’ll Rescue Him Somehow 

Her children’s voices pulled her mind back to the room

She turned around to find the kids staring at her with worried eyes

Nate. Nicky.” 

The two of them immediately darted over to cling to her sides

You’ve been very sad lately, Mommy.” 

5/7 

YesI am free now. Why am I still so upset? Well, it’s likely because I do not have any 

closure yet

However, there was no way she could let her distress show in front of her children

Thus, she forced a smile on her face. Oh, it’s nothing. I was merely lost in my thoughts

I’m not upset. Did I worry you?” 

The children glanced at each other instead of answering her

Nicole shuffled closer to her and softly asked, Will we never see Mr. Bane again

Mommy?” 

Victoria froze from shock at the sudden question. What?” 

Her heart skipped with fright when she heard that. She had not expected the children 

to mention Bane’s name

Chapter 427 Well Rescue Him Somehow 

Thinking Victoria had not heard her, Nicole repeated her question

Mommy, will we never see Mr. Bane again? Did Mr. Bane do something bad to 

Mommy?” 

Victoria was at a loss for words

She looked down at the girl leaning against her. For a moment, she did not have an 

answer in mind

Nathan was a smarter kid. When he heard Nicole repeat her question, he immediately 

dragged her away from Victoria

Nicole, let’s not pester Mommy about her business,” he said

He then moved as if to drag her out of the room

Victoria stopped them

6/7 

The two of you are my precious babies. You only need to ask if you wish to know about 

something. There is nothing I won’t answer. Nate, I know you’re always being 

considerate of my feelings, but you are a child. You don’t have to prioritize my feelings 

every time, okay?” 

Mommy”

7/7 

All right.She pinched their cheeks and gently continued, I now have an actual answer 

for the question you asked just now. I do not know if we can ever see Mr. Bane again

but I can tell you that he has fallen sick. Perhaps we’ll see him again when he gets 

better.” 

Sick

When will he get better, Mommy?Nicole asked.
