#Chapter 211 – Midnight Chats

“Well, you look happy,” Victor says to me, coming close when I walk back to the RV after hanging up with Bridgette. “So why am I wiping tears from your face?

He does just that as he says it, wiping my cheeks with his thumb, looking down into my face with concern on his.

“It’s nothing,” I say, trying to be encouraging. Then I lift my phone, which he can see has a couple tears on it as well. “I was just talking to Bridgette. Trying to help her get things sorted.”

“That was good of you,” Victor says, pulling me close. “Is she all right?”

“Yes,” I say, wrapping my arms around his waist and putting my head against his chest. “Um…”

I hear him laugh lightly at my hesitation. “What,” he says, pulling back and looking at me. “I know that pause means you’re up to something.”

“Um,” I say again, biting my lip and then smiling innocently. “I kind of gave her…a lot of money. Everything I took out of the account when I left with Ian.”

Victor laughs at that, shaking his head, dismissing it. “That’s fine. Did you think I’d be mad? We’ll take it out of Rafe’s pay.”

I burst into a smile, but then, pleased to think we had the same thought. But, when I consider his words further, I frown and narrow my eyes.

“What?” he asks again, smirking, looking at me in wonder. “What could you possibly be mad about now?”

“Why aren’t you madder that I gave away all that money? I mean, it was a lot of money.”

Victor just grins at me.

“Wait,” I narrow my eyes further, pointing an accusatory finger at him. “Is that not a lot of money to you? How rich are you?”

He laughs harder at that, pulling away from me and grabbing my hand, tugging me back towards the RV.

“Seriously!” I exclaim, letting him pull me. “Did you only give me a pittance of your actual wealth in my account? Did you give me chump change!?”
