Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria) novel Chapter 553

Chapter 553 Paramour

Alaric brought Victoria to a secluded place before coming to a stop.

She felt puzzled.

“Why did you tell them about our relationship?”

Alaric’s hand around her waist paused for a moment after he heard her question. He turned his head to see her confused expression and couldn’t help but ask, “Why can’t I tell them about our relationship?”

As he spoke, he leaned closer and his voice carried a hint of danger.

“What’s wrong, Snowball? Don’t you want others to know about our relationship? Is my identity not presentable?”

Victoria was speechless.

“Or perhaps… you have a paramour in the company?”

Initially, she was just curious why he chose to announce their relationship. She didn’t expect him to have such. vivid imagination.

A single sentence gave rise to so many thoughts. It turned out guys would think so much as well.

Victoria looked at Alaric in front of her and blinked her eyes gently.

“I don’t have my memories anymore. Even if I really have a paramour in the company, I wouldn’t remember, right?”

It was evident that she was intentionally teasing him.

However, Alaric couldn’t help but feel a tinge of jealousy in his heart. He pursed his lips and deliberately said, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t remember. If you were to have a paramour, he would reveal himself on his own.”

Victoria raised an eyebrow. “If that’s the case, you should look forward to seeing it.”

She suddenly had another thought and continued, “You’re only talking about me. What about your company? After all, your company is bigger than mine. If you wanted to keep a mistress, it would certainly be easier for you, right?”

Alaric was dumbfounded.

He didn’t expect her to turn the tables on him.

Was his company big?

Heh. Wasn’t she indirectly saying that if he wanted to keep a mistress, he would have plenty more choices than

her?

The jealousy that had arisen in his heart due to her attitude was alleviated at this moment.

Alaric could also sense that she cared about him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have brought up his company at this

moment.

After thinking about it, he said straightforwardly, “If you’re so worried, why not bring your laptop and work at

my company?”

13:55 Wed, 19 Jul

Victoria didn’t refuse him. Instead, she asked, “Can I do that? Won’t it affect you if I go to your company?”

Alaric’s voice was low. “Affect what?”

“Affect your mistress.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt the grip on her waist tightened. He narrowed his eyes dangerously and said, “Snowball, you’ll know whether I keep a mistress or not if you go and see for yourself.”

Victoria almost had the illusion that he was about to kiss her after she felt the dangerous aura emanating from him and his scorching breath wafting on her face.

After all, they were still at the company. If he couldn’t control himself and kissed her, it would be embarrassing

if someone saw them.

Victoria could only push him away at the thought of this.

“Forget it.”

After speaking, she took a deep breath and lowered her head to tidy her clothes, which had been messed up

earlier.

“Forget it?”

Those two words caused a frown between Alaric’s eyebrows. He was puzzled and asked, “What do you mean by forget it? Aren’t you going to my company anymore?”

Could it be that she was just speaking casually earlier? In reality, she didn’t want to go there, did she?
