Chapter 556 Having Children and Taking Care of the Family Was Her Only Dream Before
Mindful of the elders' presence, Victoria held her tongue.
Once she and Dennis left, Arabella asked, "Did you wear that without Victoria's permission?"
Alexander didn't answer, just staring out the window.
Couple watches were for couples, so what was the big deal if he wore it?
Should Victoria really take the watch to the set and give it to Adrian?
Not only did Alexander wear the watch, but he also had something even more important around his neck, hidden by his shirt.
He wanted her to change her mind, starting today.
On the way back to the set, Dennis asked, "Have you patched things up with Mr. Harrington?"
"No," Victoria replied. "Why did you suddenly go to the Harrington Mansion?"
Dennis shrugged. "For many reasons."
"Like what?"
"Mainly to make it easier to get sponsorships in the future."
"I knew you weren't just there to see me."
"This way, you won't have to worry about not getting roles in the future," Dennis reminded her.
"But I probably won't be in this industry for long," Victoria replied softly.
Dennis abruptly pulled over and said, "Say that again."
Victoria repeated, "I said I probably won't be in this industry for long."
Dennis frowned, clearly anxious. But then he realized she wasn't talking about betraying him, just leaving the industry. So he started the car again.
Dennis asked, "Planning to work for two years and then go back to being a rich housewife and have kids?"
"Of course not." Victoria didn't really like being in the spotlight.
Having kids and taking care of a family had been her only dream before.
Now, she wanted to make money and do more of what she was truly passionate about.
She couldn't believe she had such a naive idea before.
Even though Alexander said those things last night, besides being shocked, she felt like she didn't really want to be with him again.
It seemed like she didn't need a love that often brought her pain.
That same day, Isabella returned to the city.
"Ms. Montgomery, Mr. Montgomery wants you to go straight to the company," the driver reminded her.
"Go to the film set first," Isabella ordered, as proud as ever.
Observing her expression, the driver didn't argue. "Yes."
Isabella wanted to see that woman. Whether she was Felicity or Victoria, she believed she could recognize her at a glance.
Victoria actually dared to come back.
But when Isabella arrived, Victoria's scene had already ended, and she was standing next to Adrian, playing a supporting role.
Isabella stood at a distance, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw Victoria.
She didn't expect Victoria to return after what happened that night.
Isabella was sure it was Victoria, but she definitely didn't love Alexander now. With Victoria's pettiness, she couldn't accept Alexander lying in the same bed with herself.
So, the only reason Victoria came back was that she didn't love Alexander anymore and wanted to use him.
Isabella thought Victoria was so shameless.
Thinking this, Isabella turned and walked out.
As soon as Isabella walked out, she bumped into Nicole.
Nicole cursed, "Are you blind?"
Isabella frowned, looking displeased. 'This woman dares to scold me? Doesn't she want to stay in this circle?' she thought.
Nicole stared at Isabella for a few seconds, realizing she wasn't from the entertainment industry. Judging by her outfit and the watch on her wrist, Nicole knew she wasn't an ordinary person, so she toned it down a bit. "Watch where you're going next time."
Isabella snorted and turned to leave.
Once in the car, she instructed, "Find out who that woman is."
"Yes," the driver responded and drove off.
Nicole watched the luxury car disappear and muttered, "Is she another kept woman? What's she showing off for?"
As soon as Nicole walked in, she saw Victoria standing behind Adrian as a background extra and questioned, "What's the deal with this Felicity? That guy who came the other day seemed to be here for her. That man..."
Nicole had seen Alexander at the Harrington Group building, which was so tall it seemed to pierce the clouds.
Nicole thought, 'Could the owner of the Harrington Group be Felicity's sugar daddy? How else does she land a top-tier skincare ad right after debuting? And start off working with a top director, playing the lead role? Just because of her agent? It's said that Felicity's agent doesn't have a good reputation and has made many enemies in the industry. Does he really have that kind of power? It must be because Felicity's someone's mistress. But rich men always change women like they change clothes.'
Nicole stood at the door, staring at Victoria and fantasizing about wearing a beautiful short skirt to seduce Alexander.
Thinking this, Nicole couldn't help but feel happy. She thought one day, she would be powerful again.
When Nicole returned to the hotel that night, she saw Alexander entering Victoria's room, and she immediately had an idea.
Inside the room, Victoria was unhappily looking at Alexander who had walked in, kindly reminding him, "You got remarried, remember?"
That day, Victoria and Eloise saw Tessa and his marriage license.
"You know that?" Alexander said lightly, then walked towards her unhurriedly.
Victoria panicked and stepped back as he approached, continuing to remind him, "Of course. Tessa said she wants to have a baby with you."
"If having a baby was that easy, we would already be parents of several children." His extremely soft voice sounded particularly pleasant in this room.
Victoria couldn't agree with his words.
Alexander said in the morning that he would come to pick her up, but she had refused.
"I'm calling Tessa," Victoria said as she took out her phone from the pocket of her dress.
However, before she could dial, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.
Victoria looked in surprise at her wrist, which was being held so tightly that she couldn't move. His well-defined fingers, which she liked so much they made her drool, could break her bones with just a little more force.
She quickly felt the burning temperature on her wrist, and suddenly her hand was empty.
Alexander took her phone and put it in his pocket, saying, "Don't add those shady people anymore."
Victoria looked at him in confusion.
He suddenly smiled ingratiatingly. "I thought the misunderstanding between us was cleared up."
Victoria seriously told him again, "We're impossible."
Alexander's face immediately darkened, and he said, "It's possible."
"Impossible."
"Possible."
"No, you..." Before Victoria could finish her sentence, Alexander wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms, his other hand pinching her chin, sealing her mouth with his.
Victoria couldn't say anything, only feeling him biting her lips.
The last time they bit each other was just last night.
"I regret it, Victoria. I want you right now."
There was a smile in his eyes that she couldn't understand, and then she felt her body uncontrollably falling backward.
