Chapter 404 This Time It's Coming Back
"Alexander, you need to be more open-minded." Victoria continued earnestly, "You are the one who abandoned me. It should be me to be sad."
Victoria thought, 'What's there for him to be sad about? I am the one to be abandoned.'
"Then show me a look as if I abandon you?" Alexander asked.
Victoria's head buzzed, thinking, 'What? Is he just acting earlier?'
Her face flushed with anger, feeling deceived.
Alexander later sat down on the carpet and then laid his head on her lap. "Victoria, it feels like my heart is really torn apart."
After saying this softly, he fell silent.
Victoria's eyes immediately welled up with tears.
But the next moment, she warned herself not to be deceived.
'This guy is acting again. It is a pity he doesn't pursue acting. The entertainment industry will have missed a talented actor.'
---
Victoria felt that women could really be driven crazy by men.
Despite being only twenty-three, she had grasped this truth deeply.
Later, Alexander dropped her off at the apartment, told her to rest well, and then left. Victoria stood in the hallway, calming herself down.
Well, she hadn't come out of the drama that happened in the rest area yet.
She fell back into it, again.
"Alexander, you jerk," She muttered as she walked in.
But as soon as she finished cursing, she froze.
"Adrian, aren't you on set?" Victoria asked.
"I wanted to see you," Alexander replied.
Adrian smiled like a cheerful boy. But he had lost a lot of weight. Seeing him like this, Victoria sighed. "Why do you come out again? Do Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery know?"
"They don't know. I take a two-hour break," Adrian replied.
Adrian didn't mention hearing her curse Alexander but thought, 'Why would she be so irritably cursing Alexander? What would that prove? Fortunately, she only curses in secret. I dare not imagine what would happen if she cursed in front of Alexander. It would be best if she didn't show too much emotion in front of him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had a good time.'
Adrian felt a bit uncomfortable in his throat and softly suggested after returning home, "How about porridge oatmeal for dinner tonight?"
"Sure." Victoria didn't refuse.
But she couldn't help but remind him, "Don't keep coming out like this in the future. Come back after the shoot is over."
"Okay," Adrian agreed.
Victoria put down her bag and went to prepare dinner.
She was on her period and had planned to have hot chocolate alone.
Alexander had suggested she go to Regal Retreat, saying they had everything there, but she insisted on coming back.
'Nowhere is more comfortable than my own home. Except for a hotel.'
That was what she thought.
In the hotel, one paid and enjoyed their service without any burden.
She had just started cooking when music suddenly played in the background.
It must be the song he asked her to listen to in the recording studio.
Victoria listened without saying a word and then quietly washed the vegetables.
The water in autumn had cooled a bit, and her hands quickly turned slightly red.
She thought she should install an instant hot water tap for herself.
It was said to be very useful. She had seen it online before.
Adrian conscientiously put on an apron and helped with the cooking.
When the doorbell rang, they looked puzzled towards the door, and then almost instantly, Adrian said, "I'll open the door."
"Okay," Victoria replied.
Having just finished washing the dishes, her hands were wet, so she didn't go. While still washing the vegetables, suddenly, her wrists were held.
"You had a stomachache this afternoon. Why are you touching cold water now?"
A man's reproachful voice sounded beside her.
Victoria raised her eyes and stupidly looked at the person who had returned. "How come you're back?"
Alexander immediately looked at her.
She was asking why he came back.
His heart softened. Coming to his senses, he immediately went to get a towel to help her wipe her hands. "I just went to buy something," he said.
"What did you buy?" Victoria asked curiously.
"A hot water bottle and a heating pad," Alexander replied.
Victoria just kept staring at him stupidly, and then her eyes began to well up with tears.
"Don't touch cold water during your period from now on, okay?" Alexander clasped her hands together and rubbed them. Yet, he couldn't warm them up, so he directly tucked them into his chest.
Tears streamed down Victoria's face.
But he became excited inwardly.
'Is she moved?'
