Chapter 415 Apologies and Aftershocks
And then this had to happen tonight.
Victor looked down at her, standing there like a little quail.

He couldn’t see her face, only the top of her head, and the way she stood there–so timid and apologetic–was oddly obedient.
The corners of his mouth curved faintly. “What are you sorry for?”
Tessa blurted out, “For stripping off your towel.”
Silence crashed down around them.
Tessa’s brain froze again.
Oh no–Stella had specifically told her not to mention that. Just admit you were wrong and leave it at that!
The pressure in Victor’s presence made it impossible to ignore him. “I- I didn’t mean it like that.”
“Oh?” Victor’s voice was icy. “Then what did you mean?”
“I didn’t do it on purpose.”
She really hadn’t.
Victor’s footsteps thudded against the floor as he walked down, each step pounding against her chest.
He stopped right in front of her and lifted her chin with his long, defined fingers.
Tessa’s insides were trembling.
“M–Mr. Victor, here’s your water.”
She nervously offered the now half–full glass.
But her mind was still replaying the earlier scene in vivid detail.
Right now, she wanted nothing more than to dig a hole and bury herself in it. How stupid could she possibly be?
Turning around and accidentally yanking someone’s towel off?
Seriously?
She held the glass out.
Victor didn’t take it.
Instead, his grip on her chin tightened slightly. “What did you see just now?”
Everything-
“I saw, uh-”
Wait. She couldn’t say that. Definitely not.
She immediately shook her head. “I didn’t see anything.”
Not good enough.
His sharp gaze pierced her like a blade, and Tessa quickly added, “Nothing at all.”
But she had seen something.
And honestly, how could anyone say he was not functional? That didn’t look like someone who had issues in that department.
If he really had a problem, then what a waste of—

The theagh we abrupul on off as Victor said coldly. “Te that so?”
Trese nodded. Yes, I swear I didn’t see anything. You’re still pure as ever
But she wasn’t pure anymore, was she?
Bedaren her, and she’d seen him….
Victor let out a low scoff, released her chin, and finally took the glass from her hand before heading back upstairs.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan)
Ch 489 Doesn’t this prove that Dan doesn’t actually have amnesia? Why would he go to the island with a strange woman and why would he steal from Derrick? He doesn’t know them....
Ch 488 I feel like this is going to be what Stella stole in his study in Pagenda or wherever his estate was....
Ch 485 I thought it was going to be the Reed family mine that she robbed, thus taking the Keenes product and leaving them in that situation....
Ch 483 o then, how did the Reeds fine her? How did they not know where she was from?...
Ch 477 Definitely hidden pedo in here, referring to tiny women as little girls in every way possible....
Ch 468 How could Stella inherit her adopted father’s weak stomach constitution?...
Ch 468 Abraham and Marie’s mother has been called Evelyn, Diane and Loretta.. which is it? Evelyn has been the most used....
Ch 465 She still doesn’t know the mistress is Lillian’s aunt?...
Ch 464 Why didn’t she kick her out herself be for she went to attack the mistress…...
Ch 463 This is stupid now. I understand being scared in his presence enough to not think straight, but she’s a lone more often than not and has plenty of time to think things through, especially if she has time to get gossip from Rivermount and report to Stella....
