Chapter 55

“Sit in the passenger seat,” Christian cooly instructed from the window.

It took Victoria some difficulty to respond with a hum, after which she closed the rear door and moved to the front seat.

Although the window had been opened, there were still traces of tobacco in the car. It wasn’t unpleasant, but the torment was worse than a stomach ache.

It was the same kind of cigarette that he smoked when he broke her leg. The smell was so familiar to her that it tormented her on a nightly basis.

The Bentley quickly disappeared into the night after it was started.

Out of all the Rolls-Royce cars outside the villa, Bella followed Lucas’ gaze and commented with bitterness, “You still can’t forget Victoria?”

“What?” Nancy was originally discussing business with Kevin. When she heard Bella’s comment, she responded, “Luke, you still fancy that murderer?”

Kevin remained silent, but gave Lucas a look of disapproval.

The words ‘Yeah, I can’t forget her’ rolled up and down Lucas’ throat, but when he finally spoke, it was the total opposite. “No.”

“That’s for the best!” Nancy breathed a sigh of relief, but continued with a terrible expression. “Victoria and your sister always had a good friendship, but because Christian fancies your sister, she decided to knock Bella down. Such a ruthless woman would not be allowed into our family, even if she’s severely injured.”

“Your mom’s right,” Kevin added finally.

Lucas’ Adam’s apple rolled up and down while his eyes had darkness in them. His voice was lower than usual when he finally replied, “Mom, Dad. Don’t worry, I still know how to differentiate right from wrong.”

“Yeah, Victoria is a murderer. You can be forgiven for not knowing her true colors when you pursued her. If you know that she is vicious but still pine for her, then you really shouldn’t be doing this,” Nancy advised with a frown.

Lucas lowered his eyes to cover his gaze. “No way.”
