Chapter 3
Unfortunately, Victoria refused to obey.
It was not until before I entered school that she found out she was pregnant. Mrs. Sterling, who was eager to have a grandchild, forced Victoria to marry me.
I was so stupid at that time. In order to marry the person I loved and to personally take care of what I thought was the fruit of my love, I even gave up Stanford University, which I had been dreaming of.
Now the gossip photos only show my blurred profile, and the biggest suspicious point is the torn dress.
As long as I don't admit that it was Victoria who tore it, who can do anything to me?
Ethan looked at me calmly and became a little uncertain:
"Are you serious that nothing happened between me and my sister?"
I shook my head calmly.
"What do you want to happen to us?"
Ethan suddenly looked furious:
"You're dreaming! Then explain to me why you and my sister were in the same hotel? Why are there so many red marks on my sister's body? How did your dress get torn?"
Ethan still has some brains, but not much.
I glanced at Victoria who was walking over and shrugged:
"It was my birthday last night. Isn't it normal for me to get drunk and sleep in a hotel? Isn't it normal for me to get so excited about getting admitted to Stanford University that I got drunk and cut my dress to pieces?"
"As for why my sister also slept in that hotel, you have to ask her! How would I know about her affairs?"
"Besides, there are many mosquitoes in the summer, so it's not surprising to get some bites on your body. Ethan, why do you always think about such messy things? You should watch less pornographic garbage!"
"Sister, do you think I'm right?"
Victoria, who was cueed by me, rubbed her hands repeatedly, and her eyes, like deep pools, were brewing deep meanings that I could not understand.
"Sister, is what he said true? Why do I feel like your wounds don't look like mosquito bites?"
Ethan poked at the red mark on Victoria's neck, trying to find evidence that I had touched his sister.
Victoria pointed at the five fingerprints on my face and asked Ethan:
"You hit him?"
Since Victoria usually favors me, Ethan looked embarrassed:
"I'm just afraid that he will make a mistake. It's his fault for causing you to be hotly discussed and laughed at!"
"If that brat really eats you up and runs away, where will the face of my Sterling family be? I'm giving him a shot of prevention!"
Victoria said coldly:
"Ethan, who gave you permission to hit someone? Where is the upbringing of my Sterling family? I'll punish you by not letting you go out for three days!"
By deciding to stay away from the Sterling family, I no longer had to please Ethan.
I thought Victoria would definitely help me clear myself of this matter, so I couldn't help but sneer at Ethan:
"Ethan, do you think my sister is someone I can bully?"
"Victoria is such a tough woman, I don't know who will bully whom..."
Unexpectedly, Victoria touched the bite mark and suddenly said:
"You didn't?"
Her pointed words made my eyebrows twitch.
It wasn't me who drugged her, nor was it me who pushed her down. Now I'm trying my best to distance myself from the matter, but she's refusing to cooperate.
"Victoria, you're joking. I wouldn't dare bully you even if I had a hundred guts!"
Thinking about everything my daughter and I went through in my previous life, I just wanted to get away from Victoria as soon as possible.
Ethan's suspicious eyes switched between me and Victoria:
"There's something wrong with you two!"
Victoria and I denied it in unison:
"No!"
Victoria's eyes flashed with surprise, then she calmed down.
I limped away.
Victoria grabbed my arm:
"Go to the hospital!"
The tone of voice was full of unwillingness to refuse.
I was so burned by her sudden touch that I immediately pulled my hand away.
Chapter 4
"Don't touch me!"
Victoria dragged me straight into the car under Ethan's shocked gaze.
I struggled to push her away, and she almost fell down, but instead of getting angry, she smiled.
It was exactly the same as the ridicule he received after I slept with him in his previous life.
No matter how I struggled, she just stuffed me into the car.
My heart was pounding, not because of her intimate behavior towards me, but because I always felt that something was out of control.
She knew very well that it was me who had sex with her last night.
But I don’t understand why she would go to the hospital with me if she hated me so much!
Is she also reborn?
That's even more unscientific. If she were reborn, why would she touch me?
No matter what medicine she took wrongly, I now avoid her like the plague!
She looked at me coldly as I climbed from the passenger seat to the back seat, her whole body emitting a chill that I couldn't understand.
After a long silence, she rolled up the window and stepped on the accelerator, leaving Ethan stamping his feet in anger behind her.
"Victoria, Ethan can't see me anymore, let me down!"
Victoria glared at me and hurried towards the hospital.
This look was full of ruthlessness, which made me behave myself instantly.
Did she insist on taking me to the hospital because she wanted me to see with my own eyes how she abandoned her child?
It's better this way. After all, I am responsible for letting her get pregnant.
But Victoria took me to the orthopedics department:
"He sprained his ankle. Check to see if any bones are injured."
I was a little confused.
Compared to spraining your ankle, solving the problem of your child’s condition should be the top priority, right?
The doctor felt my bones and started acupuncture right away.
After that, she took me to the gynecology department and told the doctor with a cold face that she wanted some medicine.
The doctor was confused and asked her what medicine she wanted.
"Abortion pills! I got pregnant with his child last night."
She wanted me to have an abortion before the fertilized egg had even formed.
It shows how much he despises me and her child.
Poor daughter, she never received any love from her until her death.
I never even got a hug.
I smiled bitterly in my heart and told the doctor to buy some emergency medicine.
Victoria, who was embarrassed, took the prescription and went to get the medicine.
He drank the medicine in front of me again.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw her take the medicine with my own eyes.
She looked at me doubtfully and said coldly:
"Put aside your unreasonable thoughts. I won't pursue the matter of you drugging me last night."
After living my life again, I still asked her unwillingly:
"If I say I didn't drug you, would you believe me?"
Victoria's frosty face turned even colder:
"Shut up! This matter ends here. If you dare to have any evil thoughts again, you will bear the consequences yourself!"
"good!"
I answered obediently, causing the rest of Victoria's words to get stuck in her throat.
On the way back, she continued to issue strong orders:
"Remind me to take the medicine in 12 hours! If I still get pregnant after taking the medicine, you must accompany me to get an abortion!"
"Also, don't go out until your foot is completely healed! I don't want any more scandals, especially those related to you!"
Glancing at the rearview mirror, her disgust for me was revealed without any disguise.
"good!"
After experiencing a bad ending in my previous life, I will never have any delusions about her again.
And she was very satisfied with my knowledge.
Halfway back, her phone rang.
Victoria turned on the speakerphone, and a deep male voice came immediately:
"Victoria, I'm back! See you the usual spot!"
Her white moonlight Julian Blackwood has returned to his country.
Victoria's thousand-year-old icy face melted instantly when she heard that, like a lake of spring water.
Chapter 5
After more than ten minutes of sweet talk, Victoria reluctantly hung up the phone.
I asked her again to stop the car so I could get out.
She insisted on taking me to buy roses and gifts.
"Victoria, you go on a date, I won't bother you anymore!"
When I arrived at the mall, I hailed a taxi and left.
Victoria wouldn't let me go:
"Aren't you curious about who that person was just now? Didn't he always love to follow me?"
It turned out that it was my indifferent reaction that aroused her curiosity.
Unfortunately, having seen so much differential treatment from her in my previous life, I have become accustomed to her such contrasting behavior.
I had no interest in accompanying her to buy a gift for Julian.
"Why are you curious? I'm not interested in being a third wheel. Have a nice date, Victoria!"
Victoria looked at me with a mysterious look.
She slammed the taxi door shut, sent the driver away, and dragged me straight to the jewelry store in the mall.
"Take out your most valuable treasure."
The saleswoman saw me being pulled into the store and thought we were a couple. She was busy picking up the pair of pink diamond wedding rings and praising our good looks.
When the young lady was about to try the ring on my hand, Victoria took the men's ring with a cold face:
"Is he the only one who deserves it?"
The atmosphere in the store suddenly became extremely awkward.
I also understood that Victoria didn't let me go just to embarrass me.
But I didn't care at all, I looked up and broke the silence:
"Miss, you misunderstood. She is my sister, and we are choosing a gift for my brother-in-law."
The atmosphere was finally harmonious, but Victoria felt even colder.
She ignored my wishes and dragged me to the airport to pick me up.
When I saw Julian, I called him brother-in-law very naturally, which made him so happy that he praised me for being so sweet.
Victoria stared at me:
"What did you call him?"
I kept silent, pretending not to understand that she was already on the verge of anger, and pushed Julian into her arms:
"Victoria, I'm leaving first!"
I ignored the looks behind me and quickly ran out of the airport.
As soon as I got home, the video of Victoria and Julian kissing passionately at the airport went viral on Trending.
When someone questioned whether the person's profile was different from the one captured by Paparazzi, Victoria officially responded:
【It's him.】
These two short words kept the Sterling family busy.
That night, Julian was invited to the Sterling family to discuss marriage.
I wanted to stay in the room, but Julian came upstairs to check on me.
But after the door closed, he put away his smile and stared at me with disdain:
"Liam, since you're so tactful to call me brother-in-law, take this special medicine for treating injuries. I don't want people to find out that you were the one who jumped out of the window."
"I don't want anything to happen between Victoria and me."
Looking at the pills in his palm, I thought Victoria asked him to deliver the medicine and hit me in the face on purpose to make me give up my thoughts about her.
Seeing that I took the medicine without saying a word, Julian went downstairs contentedly and told everyone that I was not feeling well and wanted to rest.
Mrs. Sterling tried to come up to see me several times, but was stopped by him and Ethan.
Not long after taking the medicine, I started to feel a dull pain in my stomach.
Not wanting to disturb Mrs. Sterling, I endured the pain and forced myself to sleep.
While I was half asleep and half awake, it seemed like someone came into my room and fed me something.
The familiar bitter taste spread across my tongue, and I woke up instantly.
I saw it was Victoria, I was used to relying on her:
"Victoria, my stomach hurts so much, I want to go to the hospital..."
She gently tidied my hair which was soaked with cold sweat and said coldly:
