Chapter 80

Outside the door, Matthew and Janice’s voices could be heard, and although it wasn’t clear, Victoria could listen to the tone that they were kidding around, but Janice seemed slightly annoyed.

She stretched out her palms, glanced at the thin calluses on her palm, and laughed lightly, but the laughter didn’t reach her eyes.

At 5.30PM, Vincent came with a bunch of food that she liked. “I went to a few places and was queuing up the whole afternoon to buy everything. Eat more of it.”

After he placed the food on the table, he handed her a set of cutlery and a food container before placing a bottle of white wine on the table.

“Why are you in the mood for a drink?” she asked casually. Her brother usually didn’t like alcohol as he found the taste horrible.

He suppressed the frustrations in his heart as he poured himself half a glass and finished it in a gulp. “I just feel like having some.”

As he wasn’t wearing his jacket and tie, his shirt opened up a little when he made a huge show of drinking, revealing a fingernail mark from the lower right side of his neck to his collarbone.

“Why do you have a scratch on your neck?” Victoria asked with a frown while setting aside the fork.

He was alarmed by her keen eyes, so he pulled his collar tightly and frantically wore a sheepish expression. “Why are you asking me when you’ve already seen it? We’re all adults. Can’t you guess how I got that scratch?”

“Vince.” Victoria stared straight at him with her dark, calm eyes.

He scratched his neck awkwardly as he mumbled, “Why do you seem like a changed person after two years in jail?”

“Don’t change the subject,” she warned.

It didn’t take long for a frustrated Vincent to cave since he had long wanted to complain to someone. Thus, he slammed the fork on the table angrily before telling her everything that happened today with some embellishment.
