Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria) novel Chapter 462

Chapter 462 

As soon as Victoria left, Bane’s gentle demeanor disappeared and it was replaced by a 

cold gaze that was directed at the group of people. 

“In the future, don’t serve anything except for this dessert.” 

The servants nodded repeatedly as they were frightened by his demeanor. They didn’t 

dare to argue and simply acknowledged his words. 

After he left, they couldn’t help but discuss the situation. 

“Isn’t Miss Selwyn too difficult to please? We went to great lengths to prepare this 

delicious spread of food, but she didn’t like any of it. Furthermore, Mr. Morison says we 

can’t serve these dishes again. What are we going to do in the future? You know, there 

were dozens of different dishes on the table today. If we can’t serve those, what else 

can we serve?” 

“That’s right. How did Mr. Morison bring back such a difficult woman to serve all of a 

sudden?” 

Just thinking about the future days ahead made them anxious. 

After returning to her room, Victoria went to the balcony and sat down. 

Her room was connected to the balcony, which was wide open. She sat there directly 

while gazing at the scenery outside. 

Even though she had arrived here, her heart was still not at peace. She constantly felt 

like she had forgotten something important, and she desperately tried to remember, but 

couldn’t recall anything. 

The more she thought, the more her head hurt. 

She ended up leaning on the table while letting out a frustrated sigh. Whom could she 

ask for help? 

That man named Bane seemed genuinely kind to her and considerate in every way, as if 

he was really her fiancé. However, Victoria was acutely aware that no matter how she 

looked at him, she didn’t feel that heart–stirring sensation. 

She later seriously speculated about what would happen if an uninterested man were 

to pursue her diligently. Would she agree? 

The answer was no. 

So, she didn’t believe what Bane said about them being engaged. 

Forget about being engaged, they probably weren’t even in a relationship. 

Chapter 462 Contact Information 

However, now that she had lost all her memories and couldn’t remember anything, 

3/8 

there was no one else around except him. She could only stay here temporarily, and as 

for what would happen next, she would have to figure it out. 

Just as she was lost in thought, she heard a faint sound of footsteps behind her. 

She paused for a moment. Although she heard it, she didn’t get up and pretended not 

to have heard anything. 

After a while, Bane walked over and sat down beside her. 

“Why are you alone here? Are you still feeling unwell?” 

She leaned back in her chair and nodded. 

Suddenly recalling something, she took the initiative to ask him, “By the way, you 

mentioned buying a phone for me. Did you get it?” 

“Yes.” 

Bane nodded and took it out directly from his pocket. Then, he handed it to her. 

As Victoria reached out to take it, she heard him say, “The contents of your previous 

phone are most likely irrecoverable, and it will take time to reissue your identification. 

documents. So, I temporarily changed your SIM card to a different one.” 

She thanked him and then asked, “By the way, could you give me my father’s contact 

information?” 

He hesitated briefly and didn’t immediately answer her. 

Just then, she looked at him. “What’s wrong?” 

“Nothing. If you want, you can contact him.” He quickly gave her father’s contact 

information to her. 

However, his words confused Victoria, and she pursed her red lips while staring at him 

curiously. 

“Why would you say that? Did something happen between my father and me?” 

Upon hearing this, Bane simply smiled faintly and said, “Silly girl. What kind of conflicts 

can there be between a father and daughter? Besides, no matter what conflicts arise. 

between family members, they’re not real conflicts.” 

He didn’t explicitly confirm or deny anything, and his words were skillfully crafted. He 

left things for Victoria to interpret freely. 

Sure enough, after hearing his words, Victoria, who had lost all her memories, furrowed 

her brows and remained silent. 

She saved the number in her new phone and then asked, “Besides my father, do we

have any mutual friends? Are there any close friends or best friends I have a good 

relationship with?” 

Bane pursed his lips and looked indifferent. 

“Yes.” 

“Who?” 

5/8 

“She’s not here. Don’t you remember?” After asking, Bane seemed to recall something. 

“Right. You did forget. I completely forgot about your amnesia just now.” 

Victoria was speechless. 

She felt a hint of dark humor in the situation. 

She curled her lips and pretended to go along while forcing a smile. 

“What about the contact information? Can you give me one?” 

“Sure. Once your previous phone’s content is restored, I’ll give it to you.” 

Since he said so, Victoria didn’t doubt it and nodded in agreement. 

“Okay.” 

Chapter 462 Contact Information 

After Bane left, she played with the phone herself and looked at the few contacts she 

had. 

6/8 

Apart from her father’s contact information, which she had just entered, the contact list 

only had one entry–Bane Morison. 

She considered the possibility that her temper was bad, so she didn’t have any friends. 

However, even with a bad temper, it wasn’t normal for her to have no friends at all. 

Yet, in her contact list, there was only Bane. She even had to obtain the contact 

information of her relatives from him. 

Everything about this felt abnormal. 

was too abnormal. Either there was something wrong with her, or there was 

something wrong with him. 

With these thoughts in mind, she pressed the recently added contact and made the 

call. 

Regardless of whether Bane intentionally tried to dissuade her from calling or if she had
