Chapter 231
I tried to recall what happened. After coming back from the hospital, Carson acted normally during the dinner and even chatted with us later in the living room. However, when he received a message, he immediately went to the study. Is there something wrong with the message?
Without trying to delve into the matter, I shifted my attention to work. Whenever I started working, I would be so immersed in it that I ignored what was going on around me. It was until I heard someone knocking on the door that I raised my head to look away from the screen.
Victoria walked in with a pot of soup. “Lily, I’ve cooked this for you. Have a taste.”
“Thanks, Victoria.” After she got me a bowl of soup, I took a look at the time and realized that it was ten in the evening. Time flies when I work. Three hours have passed just like that.
Victoria put down the pot in front of me. “Drink it while it’s still hot and take a rest. Don’t overburden yourself.”
To be honest, Victoria was a nice, caring and considerate woman. If it weren’t for the fact that she had hooked. up with Carson’s father, I would have liked her more.
Homewrecker was a word that aroused hate. In the past, I didn’t feel that homewreckers were repulsive creatures. It was until Carson cheated on me with Jolene that I had a taste of it and became resentful of homewreckers.
It if weren’t for the fact that I hated Carson’s mother, I would have fired Victoria no matter how well she did in her job.
Human nature was weird in this way. The enemy of my enemy was equivalent to my friend. I tolerated Victoria simply because I wanted to take revenge.
Turning off the computer, I finished the soup and returned to the bedroom. As soon as I opened the door, I heard the splashing sound of water in the bathroom as Carson was taking a shower..
