Chapter 43

“It’s a blessing for Victoria to have a friend like you,” Bella said with a smile as she turned her wheelchair to face Christian. “Christian, I know you’re brooding over how she hurt my legs, but I don’t blame her for it. Can we just let her follow us to the hospital?”

Christian stood against the light, so his expression couldn’t be seen clearly.

“Christian, please say yes. She won’t try to hurt me with you by my side.” Her words were a little more coquettish this time, acting like a damsel in need.

This made Victoria sneer in her heart. Bella had always taken it as her duty to separate Victoria and Christian. Even if he agreed to let Victoria go, he would disagree after listening to what Bella said.

Victoria was ready to be rejected when he said, “Push Bella out.”

The pride dissipated in Bella’s eyes. She was stunned for a moment before she really had to force a smile. “Be careful. Don’t be so careless like how you almost made me fall the last time, causing my brother to misunderstand.”

Her voice was amplified. It wasn’t meant for Victoria to hear but for Christian and Lucas.

However, Christian only faced his slender back at her, which was not what she wanted.

“If you’re smart, you should know not to try anything with Bella,” Lucas walked over to Victoria and leaned in to warn her.

Gabrielle, who initially wanted to speak up for Victoria, glanced at Lucas. He had an expressionless face while Bella looked incredibly pitiful.

As for Victoria, her lips twitched when she heard his warning. “I really wish I could.”

Since they accused her of attempted murder, why not she actually try to kill Bella? They accused her of having ill intentions, so she wanted to toss Bella around a few times. That way, when Victoria was scolded again, she wouldn’t feel so aggrieved.

“What are you trying to do?” Lucas lowered his voice and squeezed each word out his throat.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Spritz.” Victoria took a few steps back and created some distance between herself and him. “With Mr. Thatcher and you around, do you think I’d dare to try and hurt Miss Spritz?”

“I’m glad you know that.” Lucas was upset to see that she had distanced herself, but he quickly frowned and suppressed the strange feeling in his chest.

He couldn’t love a woman who had deliberately tried to murder his sister.

A hint of mockery flashed across Victoria’s eyes. “If you’re really worried, you should follow your sister around 24/7 so that I won’t get the chance to hurt her.”

Lucas glared at her coldly before walking over to Bella, leaning in and whispering into her ears before he strode away.

“Victoria, I—” Gabrielle stole a glance at Bella and said with a flushed face.

However, Victoria directly interrupted her and said, “If you have something to do, you can leave. I’ll accompany Miss Spritz to rehab.”

It was understandable. After all, even Victoria’s parents cut ties with her because of what
