Victoria took the coffee and drank it slowly, waiting for a long traffic light. The man beside her grabbed the cup she was holding, and before she could react, she saw him suck on the straw. The man sucked on it without a care.
"Hey! You..." Victoria was a little speechless. Could this man be a little more secretive?
"Can't I drink a little bit? Why are you so stingy?" Roderick returned it to her after drinking it.
Is that the point? The point is, can they use a straw together? Victoria took out a tissue in front of her and immediately rolled it on the straw. The man beside her stared at her angrily, "You dislike my saliva?"
"I'm not used to sharing a straw with anyone, except my son." Victoria replied indifferently. Then, in front of his furious expression, she once again held the straw in her hand and took a sip proudly.
Roderick had the urge to pin her down and kiss her ruthlessly, making her feel proud. However, he couldn't do it
"That's great." Victoria kissed his forehead and hugged Franklin just like that.Roderick walked over from behind and hugged Franklin away from her. Victoria was startled, and let their son get closer to Roderick. The little guy hugged his father's neck and asked excitedly, "Daddy, when will little aunt be staying in our house?""Probably three days later! However, since she has supplementary classes, she probably has to live in someone's home most of the time, and she doesn't have to stay in our house until two days off.""Why? Where is little aunt going to live?""At Uncle Lennon's house.""Oh! The house of the Handsome uncle who will help his little aunt with her studies?""That's right!" Roderick laughed. He had also only received a phone call today from his mother, because his sister's academic performance was far too lacking. Lennon decided to let Cassie live in the Mcintosh's house, so he could have more time to teach her.The
For some reason, he did not want Victoria to underestimate him, even if it was in any aspect, he wanted to be the most outstanding man in her eyes.Perhaps, Austin had become the man that she would never forget. Now, he wanted to remove this man from her heart and squeeze him out from her heart, making him the best man in her heart.Roderick was extremely confident, because what he wanted to do, he couldn't fail.Victoria was researching the music, and would raise her head to look at the man in the kitchen from time to time. She wanted to go over to take a look, but was afraid that he wouldn't be able to cook, because if she did, it would embarrass him.Victoria waited and waited until she was no longer in the mood to do anything, because she was really worried that they may miss tonight's dinner.It wasn't that she didn't have confidence in this man, but facing a man who had never cooked. What else could she expect?It was obvious that he c
"Franklin, go to bed quickly." Victoria felt that her son must go to sleep.Franklin quickly went to bed. Roderick suddenly closed the door, and Victoria squinted her eyes as she looked at him. Seeing her gaze, Roderick knew that her memory was not good.She had just negotiated the terms in the morning, so she didn't remember them anymore in the evening. Was she pretending to lose her memory?"You won't go back on your word for a month, right?" Roderick didn't mind reminding her.Only then did Victoria remember that when she asked him this morning to help her remove the ban on Maxim, she had promised to sleep with him for a month. Her beautiful face immediately flushed red.The little guy immediately recognized it and asked happily, "Daddy, can you also sleep here?""Sure, I can sleep with your Mummy for a month. Franklin, if we sleep together, it'll be a little crowded." Roderick hinted to his son."It's neither too crowded. I'll jus
Originally, he wanted to get rid of his desire, but he didn't expect that it would only burn more and more brightly. Finally, Roderick got off the bed in a sorry state, opened the door and left with an unstable aura.Victoria, who was left behind on the bed, was breathing rapidly too. She clenched her fists, and felt as if her body was being crawled by an ant, her entire body was lightly flowing with an electric current, making it hard for her to calm down.She knew it was a physiological reaction.After being kissed by this man, she unexpectedly had a physical reaction. This was truly a shameful feeling. She wasn't in the mood to be abused, so how could she have such feelings?Victoria was extremely frustrated. This time, she did not know when she would be able to sleep even more.Roderick immediately went back to his room and took a cold shower. He suddenly realized that asking to sleep for a month, this was simply a mistake, and simply asking fo
Only the owner's card or password can enter this area.When Austin saw that Victoria had entered from the back of the door, he was relieved as well. He wanted to rush this morning, but when Kaylin saw him, she obviously did not want Austin to just leave like that.Austin's gaze turned cold, causing Kaylin to freeze in fear. She looked at him and pleaded, "Austin, don't go, can we eat breakfast together?""I'm not free!" After Austin finished, he got into the car and drove off.Seeing her beloved man leave, Kaylin hacked her feet on the spot, "Victoria, I won't let you go.""Kaylin, are you still going to look for her?""Why don't I go up?" Kaylin was not afraid to blow the matter today.Just then, someone came out from inside. Kaylin immediately ran over and opened the door, and said to the two girls, "Quickly go in, help me hit her."The two girls were normally relying on Kaylin's financial resources to play together, so natur
Roderick snorted and was actually amused by her. She obviously had a cowardly mindset, but it was still able to prove that she was smarter.Victoria cast him a glance, "What are you laughing at?""Victoria, can you stop comforting yourself? With me here, how can you be afraid of defeating the three of them?""This is a family matter between Kaylin and I, so there's no need for outsiders to get involved." Victoria shook her head.Roderick narrowed his eyes and sat in front of her, his gaze focused on her, "If you want to find a backer, then you can find me. I can become your safest safe haven, and at my side, in the future, no one will dare to bully you."Victoria was slightly startled as she raised her head to look at the man with a serious face. She also shook her head very seriously, and rejected him very clearly, "No need, I can take care of my own matters.""Are you stupid? You clearly have someone who can help you, but you want to refus
She called Roderick's number."What’s up?" Roderick's voice was low and quiet, as if he was in a meeting."Do you have time? Help me delete a few things on the internet. Find someone to delete them first, I'll give you the money.""About what?""You'll know once you search my name. Please hurry." Victoria's voice was filled with anxiety and pleading."Alright!" Roderick answered and hung up.In a large conference room in the Arnold Group, Roderick sat at the seat of honor and answered the phone.Roderick immediately went to search for Victoria on the internet, and the news that came out was precisely the news that Victoria had just seen. Roderick clicked open, and when he had finished reading the full text, his face was extremely sinister, and he immediately placed his phone in front of Carson who was seated beside him, "Within ten minutes, I do not wish to see any words of this news. At the same time, I also want the media resp
"Victoria, do you have a good impression of him?" There was undisguised panic in Austin's voice."Austin, this is my personal matter, don't ask too much, I don't want to say it, the only thing you can do is stay away from me." Victoria's voice was not aggressive, instead it had a bit of a pleading tone.Austin took a deep breath, "Then, what else can I do for you? What can I do to not hurt you?""No need, it's not appropriate for you to do anything for me. Goodbye." Victoria hung up the phone after she finished speaking.She thought that she could calm down, and then the phone started to sing again. She quickly took a glance at it, it was Roderick.She frowned and picked it up, "I see it, thank you.""Who were you talking to just now? Austin?" Roderick's sensitive question was accurate.Victoria thought for almost a second and panicked, "That's not him! I'm on the phone with Betty.""Is that so?" Roderick questioned back suspic
When Victoria knocked on the door but to no avail, she decided to just stop. She had to take care of these photos anyway, it didn't matter who took care of them.Even if he wanted to, she would let him handle it!She didn't sleep well last night, so she decided to take a shower before going to bed.Victoria showered, washed and blew her hair. An hour passed just like that, and she was currently leaning on the balcony, enjoying the night scene.Suddenly, the sound of a door opening could be heard behind her. She was startled for a moment. She turned around and saw a man with a gloomy face walking towards her. She frowned slightly. "Who dares to provoke him again?""Have you dealt with the photos?" Victoria asked, if he did not deal with it, she could take it back and deal with them herself.When Roderick's slender body stepped onto the balcony, Victoria's nerves tensed up. In the next second, the man pulled her into her embrace, with one hand
The man on the other side cut his steak gracefully. Looking at how hard she was using her strength, he really didn't know what this woman was thinking all day.However, there was one thing that he was sure of. This woman definitely did not think of him all day long.After eating, Victoria saw that it was still early, so she turned to the man beside him and said, "You don't have to send me back, you can go back to your home! I can stop the taxi.""How can I let you go back so late? What happened to you that I could explain to my son?" As Roderick said this, he domineeringly grabbed her wrist and walked towards his car.Victoria thought, even if he was that happy to see her off, she would not be so unreasonable. She sat in his car, just in time, they were not far from her house, it only took twenty minutes to get there.Victoria got off the carriage and carried her chest from the back. Just as she was about to wave goodbye to the man with the Driver,
She no longer wanted to eat here. Grace always did these kinds of actions, making her feel depressed, and thus, she was not in the mood to eat.And she thought, Roderick definitely did not want to eat this meal, so she could only say to him, "Alright! Then let's find an excuse to leave!"Roderick heard her softening voice, just now, he was controlled by jealousy and had treated her roughly, but in his heart he was a little regretful, he pulled her and said towards the direction of the hall, "An excuse for me."In the hall, Austin was currently taking the painting that Desmond handed to him. He held the painting and stopped moving, and did not leave, as if he was waiting to see Victoria and leave.And at this time, outside the door, Victoria and Roderick's figures walked in at the same time. Roderick was still handing her with ten fingers tightly.Seated on the sofa, Kaylin looked at their intimate expressions, and felt so jealous that she was about
After waiting for a while, Grace scolded, "You clumsy oaf! What's wrong with you? I just told you to be careful. How could you pour them out? You can leave now. Go back to the kitchen!"The servant quickly left after hearing what Grace said, and the photos that were scattered on the table continued to spill all over. Desmond was also very vexed, he turned to Grace and said, "Hurry up and tell them to keep the photos.""Let me do it!" After Victoria finished speaking, she stood up and folded the photos. She did not want the photos to fall into Grace's hands again.As Victoria tidied up, Grace and Kaylin looked at each other, and noticed the undisguised jealousy in Roderick's eyes, as well as his expressionless face.After Victoria finished packing, she put the chest aside. When she left, she needed to take it with her.At this moment, the servant came over. "Madam, there's someone ringing the doorbell."Grace cast a sidelong glance at her, "T
After Kaylin finished pouring the tea, she raised her head, only to see Roderick's gaze on her, a look of jealousy and unwillingness sweeping across her heart. She had obviously dressed so beautifully tonight, yet Roderick's eyes did not land on her.She ran into the kitchen, Grace looked at her, Kaylin bit her lips, and her expression clearly showed her disappointment."Mom, what should we do? He didn't even look at me." Kaylin bit her lips and complained.A flash of ruthlessness appeared in Grace's eyes. Did Roderick really like Victoria that much? Did he know her past? In the past, when she was fell in love with Austin. She remembered the last time she cleaned up her room, she had even gotten some pictures of her, and they were all intimate photos of her with Austin.Looks like she ought to let Roderick admire it properly as well.She narrowed her eyes and thought for a while, then came up with an idea. She turned to the maid who was washing the
The Marquez Mansion was right in front of the high-end residential area, so Victoria's car was driving in and went straight to the direction of the huge villa. When she arrived at the gate of the Marquez Mansion, Victoria did not drive in, and stopped right beside.Roderick followed her out of the car, and went to the door and pressed the doorbell.Roderick frowned, did this woman not have any status in this family? There was no key or code.Actually, Victoria was too lazy to take it, because other than her father being at home, she would always come back. Normally, she wouldn't even want to return to this home.She never thought that the one who would open the door from the hall would shockingly be the sexy and fashionable Kaylin. Victoria secretly mocked, thinking that the clothes Kaylin wore today, was for the man beside her to see!"Sis, Mr. Arnold, you're here, come in!" Kaylin displayed warmth, and her smile was beautiful and charming.
Although the girl was rejected, she turned around and watched him leave with longing eyes, leaving behind regret in her heart.When Roderick walked out of the airport, he saw that in the long queue, there was a very eye-catching white car.Victoria also saw him. She pressed open the door, and Roderick opened the door and sat down.When Victoria saw the trace of tiredness between his brows, she couldn't help but ask out of concern, "Do you want me to send you back to rest?"Roderick looked at her sideways, and stubbornly said, "No, I want to go to your house!"Victoria did not speak anymore, the car went into the side drive and started running along the wide airport road. Roderick leaned his hands on his chest, his expression relaxed, and his mouth raised up involuntarily.The Marquez Mansion, around four thirty.Desmond called Grace, who was playing mahjong outside, to let her go home, saying that Victoria would come back to eat lunch
Morning, half past seven.Victoria's biological clock woke her up on time. Her first thought was to see if her son had woken up, but another thought immediately popped up in her mind. Didn't her son get sent abroad yesterday?She immediately relaxed her body and stretched, then continued to sleep on her palm. Without her son by her side, she was too lazy to be like a cat, how comfortable she was.Victoria had been watching Betty's fans fight from the start. When she saw it was 11: 30 in the afternoon, she only woke up when she was really hungry.First, she soaked a cup of milk and stood on the balcony, enjoying the distant scenery of the high-rise buildings. A cool breeze blew.Roderick's villa occupied an extremely rich and natural resource. Leaning against the mountain ridge, the air was fresh and the environment was elegant, causing people to definitely have a wonderful feeling of being able to enjoy it.Victoria casually made some food f
Betty returned to the hotel in a daze. After thinking about it, she could only think of one person, and that was Bryson.Why did this man want to help her? Where did he get the ability to get the chief designer to give her entire line of clothes? That was the latest major investment coveted by many celebrities!This fashion week would be maintained for a week, so it was still very lively here. There were different shows for each day, but for Betty's hotel reception, she received a week's worth of admission cards. She could go to the red carpet anytime, or attend any fashion show.At the same time, among the cards, there was a special invitation to a dinner party at the end of Fashion Week. It was a gathering of celebrities, a lavish feast that attracted the attention of the entire world.Half an hour after Betty received the card, Bryson called. He only said one sentence, "During that banquet, you will be my female companion and attend. When the time come
