The two exerted a lot of energy when they sent Alaric to the hotel.

After tossing the man onto the bed, Victoria was so exhausted that she kept
gasping for air as she stood in place. Then, she turned around and glanced at Fiona.
Fiona instantly understood what she meant.
“Victoria, can I-”
“No.”
Victoria promptly cut the latter off. “Let’s go. It’s time to go back. He’ll be fine here.”
“He’s drunk, though. Will he be okay in the hotel alone? What if something happens
to him?”
Victoria replied, “So? Don’t tell me you want to stay behind and take care of him.”
Fiona smiled awkwardly. “No. Why don’t we take his phone and call up his friends
instead? How does that sound?”
“Do you know how to unlock his phone?”

“No.”

“Then how are you going to make the call?”
“You have a point.” Fiona twiddled her thumbs, feeling troubled. “It’s worrying to see
him like this, though.”

“He’s an adult, not a child. Also, he’s just drunk. You’ve gotten drunk a lot in the past,
haven’t you?”
That was true, but when she saw someone else in the same predicament, Fiona
finally realized that she was seriously worried.
Now, she understood how her parents felt when she got drunk in the past. They
were extremely worried that something would happen to her.
Despite her worries, Fiona was slightly more assured when she heard Victoria’s
reminder.
After all, she ended up fine after getting drunk.
Alaric was a man, so what challenges could he possibly face that would be greater
than hers?

“Well… Alright, then.”
Fiona left with Victoria, still feeling troubled.
After they left the hotel, Fiona began to get curious.
“Say, how do you know that he puts his wallet in his pocket? You seem like you’re
quite familiar with him. Also, how do you know where he puts his ID card?”
Fiona recalled the string of events. Back then, Victoria didn’t waste any effort as she
took out the wallet from the man’s pocket. Most importantly, after she opened the Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
wallet, she immediately found the man’s ID card in the second slot.
If Victoria hadn’t stayed abroad for five years, Fiona would have suspected that the
two knew each other.
After all, it was normal to find a wallet in a pocket.

cards and VIP cards as she took out the ID card straight away.
This was very suspicious.
When Victoria heard that, she paused and said, “If I told you it was just a wild guess,

would you believe me?”
Fiona blinked, then maintained her focus on Victoria.
“I’d rather believe my suspicions that you’ve known each other for a long time, and
you two even dated each other in the past.”
Victoria fell silent.
She wondered if she should tell Fiona that the latter had stumbled upon the truth.
However, before Victoria could speak up, Fiona came up with an excuse herself.

“Still, I’ve always known how capable you are, and you’re very good at observing
people. Even though I don’t know how you managed to develop those skills, can you
teach me your secrets in the future? Perhaps, with your tutelage, I could get my
crush to fall for me.”
No matter what Fiona talked about, the topic would always go back to Alaric.
If this went on….
After getting into the car, Victoria received a message from Ethan.
Chapter 205 He Loves You So Much
“Miss Selwyn, when will you be coming back? We’re considered strangers in the
land of Jasea, so you shouldn’t stay out too late. Please prioritize your safety.”
“Got it. I’m on my way back.”
After Victoria sent the message, Ethan didn’t send any more replies. He seemed to
have stopped worrying.
As Victoria put her phone away, she thought of something and asked Fiona, “What
did you stuff into his pocket just now?”
When Fiona heard that, she froze, then her gaze instantly became avoidant.
“What are you talking about? I have no idea what you’re getting at.”
Victoria didn’t say anything, and she just stared at Fiona silently. Despite that, Fional
still felt very pressured.

“Alright, I left him a note. I can’t unlock his phone since it requires a passcode, so I
can’t get his number, but I can still leave him a note with my number, right? After all, I
helped him tonight, so won’t he treat me as a savior when he wakes up tomorrow
morning?”
Chapter 205 He Loves You So Much
A certain keyword instantly pierced Victoria’s thought. Her expression shifted, then
she looked away and fell silent.
After talking for some time, Fiona realized that Victoria wasn’t responding, so she
turned to look at the latter.
Fiona hadn’t realized it, but Victoria was already looking out the window. Victoria’s
reflection could be seen in the window, and her face was void of expression as she
gave off a desolate aura.
What’s going on? Fiona thought.
Was it something I said?
Fiona was troubled in an instant. She twiddled her thumbs, wondering if she had
accidentally said something that offended Victoria.
However, after thinking about it, she couldn’t figure out anything wrong with her
words just now.
In the end, Fiona leaned closer to Victoria and asked in a small voice, “Victoria, did I
say something that upset you?”

Fiona’s voice shook Victoria out of her daze.
“Nothing.”

When Victoria saw Fiona staring at her worriedly, she realized the woman had been
in a daze just now.
“Really?” Fiona put on a doubtful expression. “Just now, you-”
“Yeah, I was thinking about something just now, so I was kind of in a daze.”
“Are you really alright? Did I say something just now that upset you?”
Victoria reached out and pinched Fiona’s cheek. “What can you say that might upset
me? Don’t overthink it. We’ll be arriving soon.”
Seeing that Victoria was still capable of teasing her, Fiona finally stopped worrying.
“I’m just glad that you’re not mad at me.”
Since it was a special community, cars weren’t permitted entrance without
registering.

In the end, Victoria and Fiona could only go in on foot.
When they almost arrived, Fiona suddenly pointed ahead of them, saying, “There’s
someone at our door.”
Hearing that, Victoria looked in the direction Fiona was pointing to see a slender
figure at the door.
Judging by the figure…
Before Victoria could think any further, the person turned around.
Their gazes met midway.
Victoria hadn’t opened her mouth when Fiona screamed in excitement, “Oh, it’s
Bane! He’s here for you!”
Victoria was speechless.
Victoria was about to greet Bane, but her words were forced back into her throat by
Fiona’s excited reaction.
“Goodness, Victoria, why would he be here all of a sudden? Could it be that he
discovered you went to the bar with me and got worried, so he came here to see

you?”

Fiona was chattering away, and Victoria could only say in exasperation, “Can you be
quiet for a bit?”
“Alright.”
Victoria didn’t have to walk over to Bane; he was walking over to her already.
He took off his coat as he approached them, and when he arrived in front of Victoria,
he didn’t say a word as he draped the coat over her shoulders.
“Wow!”
Fiona hid her grin behind her hand as she said, “He loves you so much.”
Victoria was speechless.
