Chapter 316 Missing You

Victoria choked up, saying, “You guys don’t know the whole story. Everyone thinks it’s my fault, but deep down, I wanted to feel like I belonged. But that family didn’t accept me!”

Seeing her emotional state, Aiken realized his lectures were wrong. It wasn’t her choice to leave the Smith family, it was them who forced her out. Aiken felt regret.

Meanwhile, Maia and Hope stood at the doorway, overhearing the conversation. Hope whispered, “Sis, Aiken likes you…”

Maia shook her head. “He doesn’t like me, it’s just admiration.”

After those words, Maia knocked on the door and, along with Hope, entered the room.

“Maia, Hope,” Victoria wiped away her tears upon seeing them, smiling. “What brings you here?”

Hope quickly approached her. “Vicky, I have good news for you.”

“What good news?”

“My sister has already dealt with Yuna for you. That woman got scared half to death and won’t dare to trouble you again,” Hope said with a cheerful smile.

Victoria then turned to Maia. “Thank you, Maia.”

“How are you feeling now? Is your leg okay?” Maia asked, looking at Victoria’s leg.

“I just need a few days of rest, and it’ll be fine. I just didn’t expect to run into Yuna. Even after leaving the Smith family, she still chases after me,” Victoria sighed. “Back home, she was known for causing trouble. My big brother is powerful, but he wouldn’t do anything unsightly.

“Everything changed after Yuna entered the picture. She acted like a caring sister–in–law, but she targeted me at every turn. I’m not one to back down, so I fought back. Her embarrassed state back then was quite amusing.”

“Vicky, you were impulsive today. You were alone and injured. Yuna might have been dirtied and messed up, but thankfully, Aiken rushed in to save you. Could you imagine if Aiken didn’t act and Yuna teamed up with her people to bully you?” Hope said it earnestly, also speaking up for Aiken.
