Chapter 715
As soon as they got out of the elevator, Trevor was hindered by the continuous phone calls and the subordinates who were waiting for him even before he reached his office. Seizing the opportunity, Victoria also 'sensibly' chose to leave.
Once Trevor was free, he was still standing in the corridor, and the remaining fragrance in his hand had completely dissipated.
For a long time, Trevor didn't even move. He felt a little uncomfortable. Why did he feel like she didn't want to spend more time with him?
He shook his head gently and denied his own cognition. What was he thinking? If so, why would she still scald herself in order to cook for him? Back in the office, Trevor picked up the phone on the desk and instructed, "From today onwards, I don't want to see Director Jackman from the 26th floor ever again!"
That night, Trevor deliberately rejected all the social activities and returned home early. He didn't expect that the only thing that accompanied him until nine o'clock at night was the coldness in the room.
He was looking at his cell phone on the sofa. His expression was very cold.
"Master Trevor..."
The servant didn't dare to stop after she brought in a plate of fruit. As she turned around to leave, Trevor stopped her, "Wait! Does Madam Victoria always come back late recently?"
"No! Normally, she would be home at around seven o'clock. Maybe she has a social event going on tonight. In the evening, Madam Victoria did come back to change her clothes, and also told me that she won't have dinner at home!" The servant said.
"All right! You may go!" Trevor said.
Waving his hand, Trevor felt a little frustrated. He wouldn't have blamed her if she thought that he was still on his business trip! Didn't she know that he was back? If so, why did she still go out to socialize?
Initially, he wanted to call her. While fiddling with his cell phone, he dismissed that thought.
After wandering outside for a long time, Victoria could not stand the cold and rushed back home. On the way, she didn't forget to go to the convenience store to buy a bottle of red wine and a bottle of white wine.
When she was about to enter the house, she opened the bottle of red wine and took two chugs.
She also sprinkled some white wine on her body, covering herself with the smell of alcohol.
After getting off the car leisurely, she walked upstairs slowly. The thick carpet absorbed the sound of the high heels against the floor, and she unconsciously held her breath.
At the end of the day, she still couldn't avoid him!
She took two deep breaths at the door. As she just stepped out, she heard a slightly impatient male voice, "Nana, don't fool around!"
Victoria poked her head out and heard this sentence. Her bitter lips twitched. She walked loudly to the wardrobe.
As expected, she was thinking too much!
The excuse was just in front of her. She had to distance herself from him at any time! If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have gone out on such cold night!
Instinctively, Trevor quickly removed the phone and turned back. He was stunned. However, before he could make a move, the beautiful red-and- white figure had walked into the bathroom.
Trevor was annoyed and frowned a little. When he was back on the phone again, Selena's voice came from the other end,
"You're already married. Can't I come back? Don't you want to see me? Do you still care about me?"
"You're my cousin, of course I care about you! Nana, I'm doing this out of consideration for your health! Stop fooling around!" Trevor said.
If she came back at that time, not to mention what would happen on his side, just on his mother's side, she would probably already have a lot to say! Did she want to offend even her last family member?
"Naha, cousin? I don't want to see you as my cousin! You are the only one I care about in this world!" Selena said.
A sarcastic and resentful voice came from the other end. Trevor did not know how to answer. After a while, he said,
"It's not about what you want! It's a fact that I'm your cousin! Nana, listen to the doctor. Take care of yourself. When your condition improves, I'll introduce you to my wife. Besides, I can find a suitable partner for you!"
Through the phone call, Trevor really set her position straight. Yet, in the next second, he heard a crying voice.
After hesitating for a long time, Trevor didn't say anything to comfort her, but he didn't hang up the phone either. It seemed that he couldn't do anything except to quietly wait for her to calm down.
In the end, both of them just hung up silently.
Holding the cell phone, Trevor didn't feel good either. As you grew fond of something after spending a lot of time with it, it was difficult to let it go, even if it became old and ragged. He and Selena were in love with each other, but they were not allowed to be together. The feelings of being helpless and powerlessAll content is © N0velDrama.Org.
would stir his heart from time to time.
Victoria walked out, and even without looking, she could sense his sadness.
Without a word, she took the pillow and blanket and laid on the sofa. Trevor felt distressed once again. He never thought that a good day, after waiting for her the whole night, would be ruined again because of that phone call.
Walking slowly, he squatted down beside the sofa and said, "Go and sleep on the bed! Selena called me because she wanted to discuss some things about returning to settle down..."
She didn't expect him to explain and also felt uncomfortable sleeping on the sofa. So, she turned over, got up and said, "Oh, I'm very tired. I'm going to rest!"
As if to respond to him, she also gave him an explanation. She rolled up the blanket and walked back to the bed. However, she did not look at him at all and just lay down like a baby. She leaned to one side, put her hands together, and closed her eyes.
Being caught off guard by her reaction, Trevor forgot to react for a long time. He thought that he would still have to persuade her for a while!
Bitterly twitching the corner of his
mouth, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad. He was too tired. After washing up, he also got on the bed and closed his eyes. Then, he remembered something and held her in his arms. He leaned over and kissed her on her ear and said.
"Good night, here's a kiss just as I promised!"
She was not asleep, but she did not respond either. Victoria clenched her fists slightly, and felt a little bitter.
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed. After finishing his work, Jeremy looked at the slanting sunset outside the window, and took out a cigarette. The smoke lingered, and his mind calmed down a little. Then, his cell phone rang.
"Dad..." Jeremy answered.
He pressed the answer button and before he could greet him, he was being scolded right away. Jeremy sighed and looked up at the ceiling and said, "Dad, can't we talk about something else aside from this matter? I'm already an adult! Let me make my own decision about my marriage!"
He had missed it once, and he didn't want to have any more regrets. Even if it was wrong that time, he wanted to live his life his way!
"Jeremy, marriage is not a joke! Do
you know how much it will impact your life if you chose the wrong person? Have you ever thought that you may live in torture and be criticized for the rest of your life? So you don't care, then what about your child? Look at the kind of woman you chose. Ask yourself, is she presentable?"
