Chapter 134

“Rest assured. Other than…” Teresa was about to mention Christian, but when she noticed Evelyn nearby, she swallowed the name and continued, “Both Vincent and I will never let go of the person who tried to kill you.”

She made a promise to Victoria and dashed off to catch up with Vincent.

Gabrielle walked over to the door and shut it while standing back cautiously to secretly glance at Victoria and Evelyn.

“You got caught in the rain and had to deal with me all night. It must be one hell of a night for you. Please head back and have a good rest,” Victoria told Gabrielle.

Since Gabrielle was indeed exhausted and Victoria was no longer in danger, she accepted the offer to leave.

“Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?” Evelyn inquired, her eyes filled with anguish and guilt.

“Not at all, Mrs. Thatcher. I’m not hungry,” said Victoria.

Evelyn then sighed and fell silent.

“What Mr. Thatcher did has nothing to do with you and you have no reason to be sorry toward me.” Victoria’s tone was soft. After saying this, she coughed and covered her mouth.

Evelyn’s face changed dramatically when she saw this and she quickly took Victoria’s hand in hers and asked, “Are you okay? Are you relapsing? I’ll have the doctor come right over!”

Flustered, she stood up as soon as she finished speaking.

“No need for that. My throat is a little itchy and it’s not because of the relapse,” Victoria assured gently, taking Evelyn’s arm.

Only then did Evelyn’s face regain blood. “When did you develop pulmonary edema, and how come I’ve never heard of it?” Evelyn inquired as she sat down, gaping a few times.

“I became infected while in prison. Don’t worry, I’m not going to die so easily,” Victoria stated calmly.
