Chapter 153

Victoria's smile vanished instantly as she lowered her head.

Seeing that, Bailey tapped the back of her hand lightly. “Come, now. Let's not talk about this anymore. Eat up.”

Yet, Victoria remained unmoving for a long while before finally responding, “You're right, Bay. He's already married and has his own family now. I shouldn't involve myself with him anymore. It was my family that drove him to the edge, and now that he's finally found happiness, I should be glad for him.”

While speaking, the woman sounded especially rigid, as though she were a robot incapable of emotions.

The latter took a deep breath. “Yeah, I know. You don't have to worry about me. It's been years, and my worst days are long over. There's nothing in this world that can bring me down now.”

With that, she picked up her cutlery and began digging in.

Bailey shook her head and smiled bitterly.

After hanging up, the woman locked herself in the study and retrieved the surgical treatment plan she had made for the king of Eskaria three years ago.

Given how it had been so long since the king's craniotomy, she now felt the need to draft up a new plan.
