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?”

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.”
