No matter what the reason was, whether it was intentional or not, that person had to pay the price for hurting her.

"Who was it? You mean you already know who locked me up in the bathroom? Who was it? And why did they do that?"

"Did I do something wrong, or did I say something to offend someone?"

"Otherwise, how could I be that unlucky? I only followed him to the office for two days and used their toilet. I don't remember interacting with anyone!" She thought to herself.

"There couldn't possibly be such a big grudge between me and someone, right?"

Looking at her knitted brows and the worried look on her face, Trevor's arms around her tightened. She was the innocent one who suffered a lot, yet she still tried to find fault with herself. She really was someone he needed to protect! Victoria suddenly remembered something and asked, "Was it Madonna?"

If it was her, she would be speechless, but not afraid as she was not in the wrong. She wasn't even afraid of death; what could splashing her with red-colored water ultimately do to her? No matter how horrifying it was, she could endure it! "No, it's someone you don't know!"

As soon as Trevor said that, Victoria felt a knot in her heart again. With a doubtful gaze, she asked, "Are you saying that on purpose to cheer me up and comfort me?"

It didn't make sense!

"Of course not! How could I let you get hurt in vain? And on my own turf, for God's sake!" It was natural for him to want to find out the truth! Moreover, that matter was far more than a mere prank in the bathroom!

After hesitating for a while, Trevor said, "It's Natalie Harris. I heard she's from the logistics department. As for why, I haven't had the time to ask!"

"I want to hear it in person! Right or wrong, grudge or hatred, I want this clarified!" She went through all that without understanding why. She would not let this go so easily.

Victoria unconsciously rubbed her arms, and said with a shiver, "An end should be put to this matter!"

"Will she continue to target me in the future? This prank was too disgusting! This time, it was fake blood, but it could very well be something more disgusting the next time!" She uttered. "About this..."

As Trevor was unsure about this, he hesitated as he spoke.

"Hubby! I want to know!"
