Chapter 1443

The way the man addressed her pulled Victoria back to her senses. It also calmed her nerves somehow. The man knew who she was. He was coming for her. He wasn't just pulling some random strangers off the street.

She felt more at ease when she knew that they were neither robbing nor kidnapping her.

Her gaze followed the voice and eventually landed on a middle-aged limp. His clothes were ancient and his face was geriatric. The moment she saw the man, Victoria thought he was a man with a story. A man with much experience in life. And perhaps a somewhat pitiful man!

Wasn't that the man who stopped her car?

Victoria's eyes involuntarily fell on the man's legs. She pursed her lips and wondered if he was really limp.

The man noticed the movement of her eyes toward his legs. The corners of his mouth twitched as he said, "I'm sorry for inviting you over in such an odd manner! It's all because you're Trevor Clements' wife!"

She couldn't help but secretly reprimand her husband upon hearing the man's words. "What else has he done this time?" She wondered.

Victoria's life had been full of suffering and troubles from the moment she met Trevor Clements. However, after being through so much, Victoria's mentality had altered enormously.

Life will never go the way you want it to go! However, there was no room for self- pity if you want to live a good life. If bad things happen, just accept them, and go with them. Face them, and try to change them.

Therefore, after a short moment of panic, she began to cool down and started finding a solution to the problem.

"Sir, don't you think it's a little inappropriate to pull a woman into this? And not just any woman, but a woman who had tried to help you earlier? I don't know what you've got to do with my husband, but why don't you go face him, man to man?"

"You must be a d*mn coward, trying to reach Trevor through me."

She wanted to say that last part aloud, but she didn't. The man was a deadbeat. He was either a little slow, or a little crazy!

The man locked glances with Victoria. He narrowed his eyes and snorted, "I've invited you over because there's one thing I'd like you to do. And only you can do it-"

The man threw out a stack of photos. There were photos of Victoria's parents in a house. She knew the house. Her father had invested in the building not too long ago. Her mother liked drinking her afternoon tea there. Sometimes, they would send her some videos too. A few days ago, her mother even planted a flower and caught a fish. They were having a whale of a time!

They even hired a local servant!

Before Victoria could grasp the situation, the man played her a video. In the video, her parents went inside the house with some plastic bags in hand. The old couple held hands and seemed to be having a fun time. Victoria couldn't help but get a little anxious.

"What are you gonna do?"

"Simple, really! Trevor hurt the person I care about most, so he'll feel the same pain! I have something important that I need you to get for me!"

The man raised his hand and threw her a car key.

"There's a black car about fifty meters ahead. I want you to get in the car and accompany that man! Actively accompany him! When you're done, he'll give you a little plate! When you give me that plate, you can leave here and your parents will be safe! Otherwise-"
