Chapter 75

Victoria swallowed the piece of meat in her mouth and suddenly felt a little tired of it.

“Do you know why?” Gabrielle asked before she quickly wiped the corner of her eyes which caused the oil on her hand to stain her face. “Because I can get him money for his business. Speaking of which, he was just beside me when it first happened. However, he pretended to be drunk since he knew that man could provide a large sum of money for him. Does that mean my boyfriend doesn’t love me? No, I know he does, but his love for his career triumphs over his love for me. Victoria, human beings are complicated that way, so you can’t be unreasonable in demanding a pure relationship from such complicated beings.”

Victoria handed Gabrielle a piece of tissue before she continued nibbling on the ribs silently. To her, if it wasn’t pure love, then she didn’t want it. In the end, the two of them continued drinking their bowls of soup in silence.

When they were done, Gabrielle cleaned up the ward before she handed the wrapped box to Victoria. “This is for you.”

“No thanks.” Victoria hadn’t the intention to accept it as she felt it was undeserved.

“Hold your horses there.” Gabrielle forcefully pushed the box into Victoria’s arms before she came closer to her and said, “Remember the plan to seduce Mr. Thatcher? This is a tool to help you do that.”

Upon the word ‘seduce,’ Victoria’s pupils shrank as her eyes flashed a hint of gloom. In the past, she had gone through a daily beauty care routine to refine her appearance, yet that wasn’t enough to garner Christian’s attention. Now that her body and face were full of scars, as well as the numerous calluses she had on her hands and feet, she couldn’t see how the man would want to pay any attention to her.

“Thank you, but let’s just forget about it.” Victoria would no longer be so naïve as to hope for a miracle here. She would not delude herself into thinking that Christian would suddenly fall in love with her.

“You’re afraid of failure?” Gabrielle carefully tried to see through Victoria’s thoughts. “Then… are you willing to stay in Delta Club for the rest of your life?”

Victoria clutched the bed sheets beneath her tightly. Willing? How could I choose otherwise? Reality is the one forcing my hands here, she thought.

Gabrielle continued, “Worst-case scenario is that he’ll be angry and punish you when you fail. In any case… Forgive me for being so blunt, but it won’t
