Chapter 60

Seeing Teresa’s reddened eyes, Victoria gave an inward sigh. “It’s okay. It doesn’t hurt.” Her greatest fear was to see a woman crying.

“How could it not hurt?” Gabrielle disagreed while coming to her bedside. She said to Teresa, “When I came here, I heard from some colleagues that Victoria couldn’t even walk because of the pain she was in. She was helped out by the manager and rushed to the hospital by security guards.”

The more Vincent listened to her words, the wider his eyes became. His handsome face was flushed with rage, and his eyes had a pained look in them.

Teresa didn’t say anything, but tears kept trickling down her cheeks.

The back of Victoria’s hand was soon wet with tears. “It only hurt at the time. Now it doesn’t hurt anymore.” She gave Gabrielle a warning look.

However, Gabrielle pretended not to see it and let out everything she knew. “They even told me that the skin of her leg above the knee was all red, with a dozen big blisters clustered together. It looked so scary—”

“Alright, that’s enough. Stop it.” Victoria cut her short with a frown.

Gabrielle smiled sheepishly in a cautious and somewhat ingratiating manner.

Wiping her tears away, Teresa asked in a quavering voice, “Are you telling the truth about that?”

Victoria spoke before Gabrielle could. “That’s just hearsay and exaggeration. It’s not that bad, actually.”

Just then, the doctor opened the door with a click and came in. “What this lady said just now is no exaggeration. If you hadn’t torn off your pants sooner, the fabric might stick to the blisters, and you’d suffer even more.” He wiped the back of Victoria’s hand with an alcohol swab before inserting a needle to put her on a drip.

Vincent’s eyes were bloodshot as he stood aside without making a sound. A moment later, he suddenly took off his suit jacket and flung it onto the floor with all his might. “F*ck!” he swore. With that, he stormed out of the room and banged the door shut.
