Alaric frowned when he heard her words. At that moment, a cold glint 

flashed across his eyes as he gave off an intimidating aura. Just as 

Victoria thought he would do something to her, the latter turned around 

and left. Victoria breathed a sigh of relief and smiled mockingly at the 

same time.

On the other hand, Claudia gripped her fingers nervously as she waited by 

the door. If I heard it correctly, Alaric seems to be irritated. It was as if he 

was being interrupted while doing something important. Claudia felt 

unsettled by his reaction. Moreover, she started panicking when Alaric 

didn’t open the door after stating who she was. 

What is he doing there? Why isn’t he opening the door? Claudia was in a 

nerve–wracking mess. When the door finally opened, she immediately 

raised her head and eyed Alaric up and down. 

His clothes are still the same as before. Although he hasn’t taken off his

jacket, it seems wrinkly.

Claudia soon reassured herself that having a bit of wrinkle on one’s 

clothes was normal. Then, just as she raised her head and looked at Alaric, 

she noticed a small slit on his lips. At that moment, she felt her blood run 

cold. Since the color of the cut was light, she wouldn’t have noticed it if she 

hadn’t been close to him. 

Alaric didn’t notice her odd expression and asked faintly, “Why are you 

here?” 

At that moment, Claudia snapped back to her senses and smiled 

awkwardly. “I don’t have any suitable clothes. I was thinking about asking 

Victoria to lend me some.” 

She is here to ask for clothes? Alaric frowned and asked, “Didn’t the

Looking at her reaction, Alaric pursed his lips and seemed to be unhappy. 

3/9 

Sensing that Alaric would get mad, Claudia said, “Don’t be angry, Al. It’s 

normal that they didn’t prepare any clothes for me beforehand since this 

was my first time staying over. I’ll just borrow some clothes from Victoria if 

she is willing to.” 

As Alaric heard her words, he frowned and recalled how fierce she was. I 

don’t think she will be willing to do it. Even if she lends Claudia some 

clothes, she will surely provoke me once Claudia leaves, he thought. 

As he thought about what to do, he heard Victoria’s voice from behind. “I’d 

be happy to oblige. Come on in.” 

In that split second, Alaric turned his head around. 

Victoria stood there and smiled at Claudia. She had already tidied herself, 

combed her hair, and straightened her clothes. She looked the same as

before. However, as a woman, Claudia could tell that Victoria had lipstick 

on before going up the stairs. Currently, her lip was bare, and there was a 

cut on Alaric’s lips…

It took much force from Claudia to remain smiling as she followed Victoria 

into the room. 

“Follow me.” 

As Claudia entered the room, she began looking around. The bedroom 

was huge and the bathroom was the size of a standard bedroom. Since 

Claudia came from a wealthy family, she wasn’t too surprised by the 

bedroom’s layout. However, she was envious when she saw the wardrobe 

that covered almost half of the bedroom which was filled with designer 

clothes, bags, and jewelry. 

Victoria stopped at a section and said to Claudia, “Look around. Feel free 

to take anything you like. You can also take the clothes you want to wear 

tomorrow.”

Since they were almost the same height and size, Victoria wasn’t worried 

that her clothes wouldn’t fit Claudia. 

At this moment, they were the only two in the wardrobe. Claudia looked at 

Victoria and didn’t seem to be in a rush to choose her clothes. Seeing that 

she kept staring, Victoria knew she wanted to speak with her. However, 

she would wait until Claudia decided to speak up. 

As expected, Claudia couldn’t wait any longer after a few seconds. “You 

broke our promise, Victoria,” she said in a low voice. 

Victoria froze briefly before asking, “When did I ever do that?” 

“You had lipstick on before you went upstairs,” replied Claudia as she 

stared at Victoria’s lips intently. 

Hearing her words, Victoria knew what Claudia was implying. Things did 

happen since her lipstick was gone, but she didn’t feel the need to deny it.

“That means you broke our promise, Victoria. You are a liar.” 

“No.” Victoria shook her head. “I’m a trustworthy person. If it weren’t for 

Grandma, I wouldn’t even want to be near him.”

Her words riled Claudia up. Immediately, Claudia smirked coldly and said, 

“You’re saying that Al is the one who wants to be near you?” 

Victoria didn’t say anything.

“Stop joking. There is no way he would do such a thing.” After all, how could 

Alaric still be with Victoria after she returned? 

Victoria shrugged in response and said, “You wouldn’t be standing here 

right now if I decided to be a liar, Miss Johnson. All I have to do is tell 

Grandma the truth.” 

Claudia’s expression changed drastically when she heard Griselda being 

mentioned.

“Why did she suddenly decide to postpone the surgery? Did you say 

anything to her?” Claudia questioned. 

She had her suspicions about Victoria. She felt that Victoria must have 

said something to Griselda since the latter had decided to delay the 

surgery when nothing was wrong. 

Victoria’s expression turned cold. “I wish her well more than anyone else.” 

Claudia was baffled by how serious Victoria was, but she then let out a 

cold snort and thought, Stop pretending to be nice to Old Mrs. Cadogan. I
