He didn't put much thought into his words at first, it was merely a silly supposition after all. However, as the seriousness in Victoria's eye grew apparent, Trevor started taking the matter seriously as well. "If this is true," he pondered, "her tragic fate will eventually be fulfilled. No matter how hard we try to prevent it, the ending is inevitable. Perhaps her best bet is to enjoy life during these peaceful times?"

In an instant, several major events appeared in Victoria's mind.

Being happy every day, visiting her parents, fulfilling her responsibilities as their daughter, bearing a baby, or just doing whatever she likes. Victoria prayed for her inescapable tragic happenings to be delayed, just for a decade. She wished to enjoy ten years of joyful marriage first! Then she'll deal with everything else. Trevor couldn't stop himself from giggling again, "Sweetheart, you're so frightened you've started getting delusional. Do you know why the Scorpion Gang is so successful?"

Victoria looked up with her eyes half-open, whilst Trevor lowered his head and gently tapped her nose. "Everyone has their weaknesses! You'll need to be quick-witted and learn to take advantage of it. Even if your target is the almighty Emperor, as long as you learn to uncover and exploit their weaknesses, nothing is impossible. The key is how you utilize your strengths, so-"

Trevor came to a pause as a murderous look unexpectedly appeared in his cold eyes.

"I don't care if the opponent is a big shot or a truly desperate man. With ample time, I guarantee you, I'll be able to counter whatever attacks they throw at you. I'll protect you from everything. That's why you should never give up on yourself so easily! Vicky, you have to understand that this is a world where solutions always overthrow problems! If I want to enjoy your extraordinary magnificence, I will have to bear the obligations that come with it, it's my job! Don't overthink, as long as I'm here, no one will touch you, ever!"

Trevor's reassuring words drastically reduced Victoria's anxiety. She finally relaxed her initially tense body, "Hubby, what's your weakness?"

"Family?" She wondered, "Close friends? What is it?"

"If I unearth it, does that mean I can conquer you too?"

As she pondered on the thought, Victoria looked up at him with a firm expression. She doesn't know that she, Victoria Atlas, was the answer she had been looking for all along.

As he stroked her hair, Trevor shook his head while smiling, "I don't know, but feel free to spend your entire life finding out-"

Victoria hugged him tightly as she savored his warmth. She closed her eyes, failing to hide the joy in her heart-

It was a short night, yet the couple managed to get some quality deep sleep.

The next day, she was afraid that Trevor wouldn't wake her up when he got up from bed. Therefore, early in the morning, Victoria opened her eyes and stared straight at Trevor, waiting for him to wake up. Her biggest fear was being forgotten by men after a good night's sleep.

Thus, she promised herself that she would never let him out of her sight.

Just as Trevor turned around to grab some garments, Victoria scurried over to his side. With a couple of dresses in her arms, she yanked at his clothes hurriedly. Trevor was quite delighted to see this.

"We're not in a hurry today! No need to rush around like that."

Trevor pinched her cheeks and narrowed his eyes.

"I've even packed all your belts! You should think thoroughly and pack anything you want. You can even bring your cat! It won't be a problem."

It was his company, his office. Who would dare make any snarky remarks if he brought his wife? "Why would I take Grisly? It'll just end up becoming a third wheel!"
