Chapter 482
Bane was stunned when he heard Victoria’s words. After some time, he returned to his
senses and smiled. “It turns out that you want to go to the bathroom. Though, I’m
guessing you don’t have any strength, right? Should I carry you over?”
“Do you think I will be willing to let you do that?” asked Victoria.
The light in Bane’s eyes vanished when he heard her answer. “That’s right. How can I
forget that you won’t agree to my request? I’ll ask someone to help you.” Then, he left
the room quickly, afraid that Victoria would hold in too long.
After he left the room, Victoria got up from bed. When she sat up, she felt a sudden
pain in her wrist. She looked down and saw a needle hole.
Looking at it, she frowned and wondered what had happened. After all, she had lost
consciousness after feeling terrible. Maybe Jessie was the one who called Bane and
the doctor to give me an infusion, thought Victoria. She didn’t think any further.
Although the pain in her wrist wasn’t a problem, she had difficulty getting out of bed
since she had no strength. She had used almost all her strength just to sit on the bed.
Soon, footsteps were heard, and a maid came into the room. “I’ll help you with the
shoes, Miss Selwyn,” the maid said as she crouched down and helped Victoria.
Then, the maid helped her out of bed.
“Let’s go, Miss Selwyn. I’ll take you to the bathroom.”
Victoria didn’t refuse her offer since she was still weak. Plus, the maid was also a
woman, so there was nothing to be shy about.
“Thank you,” said Victoria.
After she had gone to the bathroom, she felt relieved. When she went back to bed,
Jessie came through the door and was happy when she saw Victoria had already
woken up. “You’re finally awake, Miss Selwyn.”
Victoria felt a sense of security when she saw Jessie. “You’re back.”
When the maid noticed Victoria’s gaze was fixated on Jessie, she knew she would be a
sore eye if she stayed here any longer. Thus, she gave a heads-up to Victoria and exited
the room.
Seeing that no one was around, Jessie immediately leaned closer to Victoria. “How are
you feeling, Miss Selwyn? Do you feel any better?”
Victoria nodded since she felt better than before. “Yes.”
“That’s good.” Jessie breathed a sigh of relief. “I was worried that Dr. Chapman’s
medicine would not be effective.”
Medication, huh? Victoria looked at her hand thoughtfully. There was still a visible

needle hole, which was causing her pain just now.
“What happened?”
“You don’t say. Your body has taken a huge toll since you have not been eating
properly.”
At Jessie’s words, Victoria lowered her eyes and sighed. “I’m sorry. I tried to eat, but… I
can’t seem to control myself.” She didn’t know what was wrong with her. Since she
couldn’t remember anything, there was nothing to be worried about. After all, she had
forgotten about the past, so she couldn’t feel anything.
How would Jessie not know about it? After all, she had watched Victoria drink half a
bowl of congee to assure her.

At that moment, Jessie didn’t know what to say. After all, it wouldn’t seem right if she
told Victoria to see a psychiatrist. Initially, Victoria had a knot in her heart. Thus, Jessie
couldn’t imagine what would happen if Victoria’s condition had worsened if she
