Chapter 377 Her Mother
The male officer looked at the shocked and nervous Clara and said sternly, "We received a report. You are suspected of being involved in two cases. Please come with us to assist in the investigation!"
Suddenly, the scene was filled with murmurs.
Where did the two cases come from?
What else did this Clara do?
In a panic, Clara looked towards the audience, hoping to find Simon and Oliver, but there was no sign of them.
At that moment, she knew she had been abandoned by the Kennedy family.
Before Clara was taken away, Victoria whispered something in her ear that only the two of them could hear.
Everyone only saw her suddenly go mad and pounce on Victoria.
Just as Victoria was about to dodge, someone moved faster than her.
That person wrapped an arm around her waist and quickly moved to the other side, avoiding Clara.
Clara was then restrained by the police.
"You bitch! You'll meet a bad end! I won't let you go!" She was held down, unable to move, her face twisted and contorted as she cursed at Victoria, "Just wait, one day I'll get back at you for all this!"
Everyone thought Clara's sudden change in behavior was because she was about to be taken away by the police.
Clara once again showed an ugly side of herself in front of the public.
Cursing and swearing, she was taken away by the police without mercy.
Elodie watched Clara being taken away and collapsed to the ground, not knowing what to do.
It was then that she realized Simon and Oliver had long left the scene.
Tilly glanced at Elodie and straightforwardly ordered, "Have security take her away; the competition continues!"
Everyone couldn't help but admire her composure. After such an incident, the competition could still go on?
Victoria looked at Alexander, who was holding her. "When did you come up?"
How did she not notice at all?
"You should at least give me a chance to show off, right?" Alexander said, "Otherwise, everyone will think I'm just here for show and can't actually do anything."
Victoria smiled. "I think it's more about how you feel, isn't it?"
Alexander, not feeling embarrassed at being exposed, openly admitted, "So, Mrs. Howard, how about not being so omnipotent and giving me a chance to show off?"
The two whispered on stage, completely ignoring where they were.
Tilly suddenly felt a bit awkward.
Victoria had always appeared cool and aloof to her, but now it felt like she was seeing a completely different Victoria, one who was showing a softer side.
"You two, if you want to be affectionate, wait until after the competition to go home and continue." Tilly, always straightforward, said, "Now you're in public. Could you two please tone it down a bit while you're on my turf?"
She crossed her arms and leisurely watched the couple.
Victoria remained silent.
Everyone else looked on as if watching a show.
Victoria, also known as Master Deer, was married.
It seemed like there would be plenty for tomorrow's headlines.
"Master Deer, can I take a photo with you?" After the competition, Isadora stopped Victoria, who was about to leave, with a small favor.
Victoria wasn't used to taking photos with people and was about to refuse when Isadora spoke again, "You've always been my idol. One of the main reasons I participated in this competition was to meet you."
Victoria raised an eyebrow, unable to refuse her.
Alexander stood silently by, watching.
"Should we take it?" she turned to Alexander and asked.
Isadora was slightly stunned, thinking, 'Does Master Deer need to follow her husband's opinion and arrangements?'
Alexander's deep eyes were filled with a gentleness that didn't match his usual demeanor. To outsiders, he appeared as a cold, aloof, and noble figure.
Isadora admitted that Alexander's demeanor and appearance were exceptional, and his presence was strong, but she also knew that such a person wasn't someone any woman could easily control.
Yet, his attitude towards Victoria was different from others: gentle to her, cold to everyone else.
Alexander's deep, magnetic voice sounded gently, "It's up to you."
She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Not jealous?"
Alexander paused and said, "Not really."
Victoria chuckled softly. "Then let's take it."
Alexander replied, "Alright."
Isadora was stunned. She had guessed wrong. Victoria and Alexander respected each other rather than one controlling the other.
With the first exception, there was a second.
Serafina happened to pass by, saw them, and joined in. "Master Deer, if you're taking photos, can we all join in?"
"You said you had something to tell me?" After they got back in the car, Victoria asked first.
"I'm hungry. Let's get you something to eat first," Alexander said as he started the car.
Victoria touched her stomach; she was indeed hungry.
Then she said, "You can talk while driving."
He replied, "I'm too hungry to talk. I need to save my energy to drive."After they had finished eating, she asked, "Can you tell me now?" Her curiosity about what he had to say was genuine.
Alexander poured her a glass of water and said, "Have a drink first."
Victoria obediently drank, blinking at him, her eyes saying, "I drank, now tell me."
"I remember you said you did a paternity test with Simon before?" he asked.
Victoria nodded. "Yes, more than once, but the results were always disappointing, so I gave up."
Alexander didn't hesitate. "What if I told you the paternity tests you did before were tampered with?"
Victoria frowned almost instinctively at his words. "Are you trying to tell me that I'm not related to him by blood?"
He responded softly.
Then he told her what happened outside the operating room the day she had her accident.
After listening, she didn't show any emotion, just remained silent for a long time.
She didn't know how to describe her feelings at that moment.
She had always thought she wasn't Simon's biological child; otherwise, why would he treat her that way? So she secretly did three paternity tests, but all three results told her she was indeed Simon's biological child.
Now she was being told he wasn't her biological father.
Who had manipulated all this in the dark?
And who was her biological father?
Such a dramatic event shouldn't have happened to her.
According to Lila, such dramatic plots only happen in TV shows or novels, how could it happen to her?
Her mother came back to life, the man she thought was her biological father wasn't, and now her biological father was a mystery.
To find all the answers, she had to go back to the source.
And that source was her mother.
