Chapter 516 She Would Make Those Women Wish They Were Dead
"Arabella smiled at Victoria. ""Since you and Alexander have always been so respectful to the elderly and kind to the young, how could I not feel at ease? Let's get out of here. There are too many flies in this mall today.""
Victoria nodded. ""Okay.""
Arabella added, ""We won't come back to this mall. It's filthy.""
Victoria agreed with a nod.
As Arabella and Victoria walked away, Isabella suddenly said, ""Mom, I want Victoria gone right now.""
Naomi glanced around, holding Isabella's hand. ""There are things more painful than death. Don't say such things in public. Let's get our stuff first and talk later.""
Isabella sighed. ""Okay.""
She couldn't help but glance back at Victoria and Arabella. She suspected Arabella's desire for Victoria as a daughter-in-law stemmed from Victoria's obedience, enabling Arabella to maintain control over the Harrington family for longer.
If Isabella married into the Harrington family, she'd seize power immediately.
Rumors had that the Harrington family's monthly expenses were in the millions.
Isabella thought, 'If I marry into the Harrington family, I'll elevate their lifestyle to a whole new level. But Victoria is in the way. Mom's right. Killing someone means paying with your life. There are plenty of ways to make someone suffer. If Victoria likes Alexander, I'll make her realize he doesn't just like her.'
Isabella could tolerate Alexander having other women, but she'd make those women wish they were dead. Anyone who touched her man would regret it.
After shopping, Arabella advised Victoria, ""Sometimes you should ask Alexander to go shopping with you. You don't have to buy anything, but it can help build your relationship.""
Victoria obediently agreed.
In truth, Victoria didn't like shopping. She preferred to buy things quickly and leave. She rarely browsed other stores.
The clothes they bought today were custom-made by famous brands, arranged by Alexander.
Victoria knew all the clothes at home were custom-made. Arabella just loved shopping.
Victoria asked, ""Arabella, did you used to ask Maximus to go shopping to strengthen your relationship?""
""You're finally catching on."" Arabella said, continuing to walk with Victoria.
They accidentally bumped into a young man in a hurry, who hit Arabella's arm. Arabella turned, displeased.
Victoria shouted, ""Stop.""
Arabella was stunned by Victoria's sudden stern voice.
The young man, about twenty and tough-looking, turned around.
Victoria asked, ""Did you just hit someone and run?""
The young man shrugged, ""I didn't do it on purpose. What do you want?""
Victoria snapped, ""What do I want? You need to apologize to Arabella, sincerely.""
""What if I don't? You gonna sue me?""
""Do you think I won't? I'll count to three. If you don't apologize, I'll call the cops.""
""Go ahead and try.""
""This is a mall. If I shout, someone will come to help immediately. Don't think you're so great just because you're arrogant,"" Victoria shouted.
She glared at him, ready to fight. She wasn't fearless, but this guy was too much. He hit an older person and didn't even apologize.
The young man spat on the ground.
Arabella frowned in disgust.
Victoria began to count. ""Three.""
The young man was stunned. ""What?""
""Two, one."" Victoria finished counting and immediately pulled out her phone to call the police.
The young man turned pale with fear.
""What's going on? Mrs. Harrington, are you okay? Did this young man hit you?"" Isabella walked over.
Victoria was stunned, thinking, 'Why is Isabella here again?'
Isabella said in a polite and humorous manner, ""Handsome, you should apologize if you hit someone. Don't think you can be rude just because you're good-looking. Apologize to Mrs. Harrington quickly.""
""Sorry."" The young man immediately nodded and apologized sincerely, then looked at Victoria and said, ""Can I go now?""
Victoria still held her phone, confused. After a few seconds, she looked at Isabella.
Isabella didn't look at Victoria, only showing concern for Arabella. ""Mrs. Harrington, are you okay? Nowadays, young men are too naughty. If you don't handle it right, you'll suffer. Especially with you two women together, you're at a disadvantage. For rebellious men like this, a different tone can solve the problem easily.""
Naomi also walked over and said, ""Isabella is really smart. It seems the problem is solved.""
Arabella sneered. ""Isabella is indeed smart. She is the best at understanding men.""
Naomi was taken aback. ""What do you mean by that?""
Arabella remarked, ""Nothing. I'm just teaching Victoria to be flexible. As long as she understands her man, that's enough. As for other men, she doesn't need to stoop to her level.""
Arabella snorted coldly. Although her words seemed directed at Victoria, they made both Isabella and Naomi's faces blush.
""Arabella, I understand."" Victoria agreed, then looked at Isabella.
At this moment, Isabella's face was very gloomy.
Naomi pulled Isabella and said, ""Good intentions treated like trash. Isabella, let's go.""
Victoria stared at Isabella's back, and after Isabella went downstairs, she quickly followed.
Victoria took out her phone and called Felix. ""Felix, is there a young man in a black hoodie outside? About 6 feet tall.""
Felix answered, ""Yes.""
""Wait a moment. If you see Isabella, take a picture.""
""Okay."" Felix agreed and then quietly watched the mall entrance.
Arabella had just looked at a piece of clothing and saw Victoria standing at the staircase, curiously walking over to ask, ""What's going on?""
Victoria replied, ""I suspect that guy was sent by Isabella.""
""Is she that bold?"" Arabella couldn't believe it.
""I'm just guessing, so I called Felix,"" Victoria explained softly.
Just as she finished, her phone beeped.
It was a message from Felix. Sure enough, Isabella was standing opposite the young man, talking about something, clearly discussing a matter.
Although it was just a short ten-second video, it was enough to confirm that the young man was sent by Isabella.
Arabella frowned and said, ""There really are such sinister women in this world. What is Isabella trying to do?""
Victoria smiled at her. ""I think her intentions are clear. She is jealous that you like me.""
Arabella snorted, ""They really like to sow discord. Let's go home. We won't come to this mall again; it's really disappointing.""
""Okay.""
""Wait. I saw some pajamas that would look great on you.""
""What?""
""Come on!"" Arabella shouted.
Victoria was instantly pulled into the lingerie section.
The pajamas inside were all quite sexy.
That night, when Alexander returned to The Harrington Mansion, he went to his room to shower first. Then he saw a box of pajamas on the bed. He walked over, his long fingers gently lifting the lid, revealing the sexy pajamas inside.
He thought, 'Victoria has been asking me if I could hold back these past few nights. Is she planning for tonight...'
His hand casually let go of the lid, feeling inexplicably excited, and he walked to the shower, trying to act calm."
