Chapter 84

All colors drained from Victoria’s face. “I wouldn’t dare.”

She quickly supported herself to get up from the ground. Unfortunately, as she had been kneeling for a long time, she staggered a little, but Christian managed to catch her in time, helping her to stabilize herself.

A faint scent of men’s cologne washed over her, making her take a few steps forward in order to hastily leave that warm embrace.

“Thanks, Mr. Thatcher.”

“Sure.” Christian lowered his gaze and retracted his hand, rubbing his thumb, index, and middle fingers together for a moment before he dropped his hand to his side.

At this moment, Vincent was still kneeling on the ground.

Victoria was concerned for his well-being, so she went over to help him up after hesitating for a long time. “Vince… Come on. Let’s get you up.”

“I’ll just keep kneeling here, and I won’t get up until Christian agrees to let you go!” Vincent shoved her hand away and insisted on kneeling on the ground.

Victoria squatted down with difficulty and said softly, “He doesn’t care about you at all. Even if you were to kneel here your whole life, he wouldn’t agree to let me go. On the contrary, you will displease him even more, which might aggravate his treatment toward me.”

Vincent’s eyes widened when he heard her remarks, making him look ridiculous as there were still blood stains on his face. Then, he held her hand and stood up.

Victoria just shot him a bitter smile.

Even death did not scare her now, but Christian used her brother to threaten her.

Vincent was not a person to be afraid of anything, but he was scared that Christian might torture her. That caused the siblings to become each other’s weaknesses.
