No, he won't know about it. It's just his guess. At least, he had no proof now.
Darleen was nervous, but she had to pretended to be innocent, to maintain her graceful image in Victor's heart. She said, "Vicky, you think too much."
"You won't usually call my nickname."
He narrowed his eyes, his voice cold enough to destroy her disguise. "Did you call me so to Elinor on purpose?"
Why was he so aggressive, like he had found out everything?
She was nervous, fearful of replying him when she didn't scent his true attitude. She feared her scheme exposed to him, so she had to play dumb.
It seemed that men were always drawn to women with a certain naivete. As long as a girl played the part of a giggling, clueless coquette, she held the power to capture a man's heart. Whether it was an act or the truth didn't seem to matter, as long as she kept up the facade, she was sure to win his affections.
They didn't care about what the women beside them were really like and only cared about the kind of women they wanted to see.
Sometimes, she felt like Victor had seen through her facade. Perhaps he knew more clearly than her that, her grace, gentleness and innocence was nothing but pretending.
He knew her ambition, but he never exposed it. What's Victor's plan?
When she was about to say something more, he gained on her, his unruly and handsome face so close to her.
She was almost drowned in his dark and deep eyes.
"I know you are capable of doing these things." He whispered word by word like a devil, staring at her face and sneering. "You replaced Samuel to attend the meeting, changed the room in the name of my girlfriend, allocated my room to Elinor and Shawn so that I could see they enter the room together. Finally, you appeared as a knockdown to Elinor and proof of your identity."
He saw through her schemes "You can do that, Darleen. You don't have to deny it or pretend to be innocent. I knew it clearly the moment you entered the room."
