Chapter 144: Coming Clean About The Past

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jordan vaguely felt that after Victoria’s family went through a drastic change, something unknown must have happened.

The story here must be highly tragic and full of twists.

When Jordan was ready to get in the mood to slowly listen to her recount of the events in the past decade or so…

To his surprise, Victoria said, “When I was 20 years old, I became someone’s mistress for three years.”

Her words were undoubtedly a massive blow to Jordan!

He couldn’t even react in time. He thought that even if Victoria had a story, she would rattle on for a long time before ending it with that revelation.

That was something that most women would find difficult to talk about. Yet, Victoria just mentioned it without any hesitation.

Jordan was stunned for a while as he was at a complete loss for words.

 

Tears welled up in the corners of Victoria’s eyes, and she continued to smoke.

“That year, my grandmother was sick, and we didn’t have enough money for her surgery. My younger sister was bullied by her classmates at school while I had a hooligan suitor. He would drive to the school I went to and pester me to be his girlfriend every day.”

“I once thought about taking my own life because I felt really useless.”

“Then a man stepped forward and helped me solve all my problems.”

Jordan picked up a cigar and listened to her story quietly.

“That man was my father’s friend, whose daughter was the same age as me. When my father was still alive, he used to come to our place for drinks all the time.”

“I had always treated him as an elder, and I thought he also helped me because he took pity on me.”
