Came Back as an Heiress After My Ex-Fiancé Made Me Blind novel Chapter 238

As soon as Victoria ran to the balcony, the phone hadn't connected yet, but she saw Jack following her and subconsciously waved at him, "You go back to your room first! I'll take a call."

Victoria didn't go back to his room, nor did he continue to walk forward. He leaned against the glass door of the balcony and casually folded his arms, "You can answer, I won't disturb you."

Just standing there with such a strong sense of presence, watching her answer the phone.

Victoria stared at him.

She thought about it; she wasn't having an affair, so there was no need to avoid him.

It just felt a bit strange.

Victoria turned around, and answered the call, putting the phone to her ear, and subconsciously lowered her voice, "Hello."

On the other end of the phone, Hunter's voice came through, surprised at first, then he chuckled, "Thought you'd hang up without a word, ignoring me. Unexpectedly, you answered."

"Why are you calling me? Is something wrong?" Victoria wasn't in the mood to talk nonsense, so she asked in a low voice."

"Baby, your sneaky voice..." Hunter's eyes twitched, and he hooked his lips into an ambiguous smile. "Are you cheating with me behind Jack's back?"

He was in a good mood and asked, "Are you willing to let me be your mistress?"

Victoria shook her head.

Regret.

She regretted answering his call!

Victoria took two deep breaths and spoke quickly, "About your birthday, I... I forgot it momentarily."

There was sudden silence on the other end.

After about five or six seconds, the man's hoarse and dangerous voice sounded, "Finally remember?"

Victoria awkwardly touched her nose, "You didn't remind me at the time. Would it kill you if you reminded me a little?"

"Victoria, do I have to remind you about my birthday? Wouldn't that make me pitiful?"

The man's voice sounded hoarse and gloomy through the phone, almost emotionless, "It's not the first time you've abandoned me."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Victoria exploded, "What do you mean by abandoned you? We have no special relationship, don't accuse falsely"

After Victoria finished speaking, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by the man's bony fingers.

Looking up, she realized Jack had walked over at some point.

There was a wooden rattan chair on the balcony.

Jack sat down on the chair and pulled Victoria into his arms.

Victoria blinked blankly, raised her hand to cover the phone receiver, and asked in a small voice, puzzled, "What's going on?"

His voice was calm and composed, "Didn't want you to stand and talk on the phone; it might be tiring."

Victoria nodded calmly.

This reason was enough.

Victoria let go of her hand covering the phone and asked Hunter on the other end of the phone, "Why did you call today?"

Hunter didn't answer this question, but slowly asked, "Victoria, who told me, 'Your birth is not a sin, and I'll help you celebrate your birthday in the future'?"

"Darling, you didn't fulfill that promise. Shouldn't you compensate me a bit?"

Compensation?

Victoria frowned, but before he could speak, Jack hugged her waist tightly.

Then Hunter said, "Just make it up to me... Be my mistress."

It's happening again!

Victoria was certain that Jack had heard Hunter's words.

His hand around her waist suddenly tightened, and then he lowered his head and leaned closer to her.

The two of them were very close, close enough to feel his warm and ambiguous breath.

Victoria's eyelashes trembled. She lowered her eyes in panic, rebuking Hunter on the other end of the phone, "Don't go crazy, okay? This is a legitimate marriage, and we are in a good relationship! If you call me, don't let it be for a morally corrupt discussion such as mistress, I'm too busy to engage in such conversations with you."

Victoria blinked and blurted out, "It hasn't been long! Unlike you, we grew up together, and I can't even count how long we've known each other."

Jack looked at the girl in front of him.

Victoria suddenly lowered her eyelashes, raising her soft and fair hand to gently cover the man's heart.

She raised her eyelids, and the bottom of her eyes flickered like a sky full of stars,

"Jack, I've thought about it carefully. In the memories of my childhood, besides my grandparents, the rest is about you."

They grew up together, spent all their childhood together, and felt like family.

Even what she thought was a quarrel was a love that he had never spoken about.

When she had just severed ties with the Montgomery family, when she felt the most pain and loneliness, he appeared in front of her, accepting her into his world, and made her feel at home again.

Victoria playfully blinked, "What can I do? Ever since my grandparents passed away, you're the person I'm closest to in this world. If only I had more friends when I was young..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Jack could no longer bear it, and desperately hugged her.

In an instant, the light and warm fragrance of the girl filled his nose, gradually soothing the dark emotions caused by his possessiveness.

"You only need me," he said while holding her.

Victoria snorted arrogantly, deliberately contradicting him, "Who doesn't want to have more friends?"

Jack hugged her tightly, his nose rubbing against her soft and fair earlobe, "Victoria..."

The warm breath brushed against her ear, sending shivers through her skin. Victoria's body involuntarily shuddered, "What's wrong?"

"Victoria, be with me..."

Victoria was suddenly stunned, her fingers quietly gripping his clothes, and his breathing subconsciously eased.

Immediately after, she heard the man's low, mellow, magnetic voice slowly ringing in her ears, indescribably pious and warm,

"Whether you like me or not, I will always love you and be good to you..."
