Chapter 229

Dwayne was stumped, and his expression darkened. I can't compete against Lionel's family background. I can't save Victor. If I ignore everything and bring Victoria away, that'll definitely anger Lionel. By then, Victor will get convicted. I can't afford to bear the consequences.

When Victoria saw Dwayne's expression getting less determined, she couldn't help smiling bitterly. “Dwayne, listen to me, okay? Leave. No one can help me because I'm doing this willingly. I need to do this so that I can get rid of him and start a new life.”

With tears in his eyes, Dwayne looked away. What on earth is Lionel thinking? She has an innocent and kind woman loving him. How could he let these middle-aged men take advantage of her? Is he doing this to a woman he once loved dearly just because of what happened seven years ago? If that's the case, Lionel is not capable of love, and he's not worthy of Victoria's love. If he had loved her, he would forgive her, regardless of how severe the mistake was.

Outside the private room, Lionel was leaning against the wall with his head hung low. No one knew what was on his mind, but he was exuding a chilly aura.

In fact, he had arrived shortly after Dwayne.

Prior to that, he kept staring at his watch when he was in the car, and he felt terrible.

That was when he realized that he couldn't bear to let Victoria be taken advantage of.

“Call them and get them to leave Aurora Club at once. After this, I'll make it up to them. Whatever happened here tonight stays here. If they dare to leak it out, they'll bear the consequences,” Lionel said to his subordinate.

“Yes, Mr. Gezmond.”

Lionel then slowly straightened his body and glanced at the inside of the private room from the corners of his eyes before walking toward the elevator.

In the room, one of the men received a phone call and kept nodding profusely. “Okay. Sure. We'll leave at once. I understand. Don't worry. We'll keep our mouths shut.”

With that, he hung up the phone and shared a glance with the man next to him before bringing the other man toward the exit.
