Along the way, the man couldn't help but turn back. Alicia pretended to hide in Nicholas' arms. She couldn't help but take a cold breath. At the same time, Nicholas encouraged her and hugged her tightly. He then whispered in her ear.,

"Well done! Be careful these two days. I'll bring you what you want later!

", He meaningfully glanced at the door. Then, he held her in his arms and walked to the bed. While helping her to lie down on the bed, he whispered to her.,

"Before Mr. Jackman comes, you must make him take interest in you! I will take the opportunity to make a big deal and make it known to everyone! If sudden accidents occur during that period, I might not have the time to inform you! You must be careful. These people can and will use all kinds of despicable means to achieve their goals! Don't believe anyone's words easily!

", She laid down on the bed. She blinked and nodded as a reply., Stroking her hair, he pretended to kiss her on the forehead,

"Don't be afraid. I'm here. I won't leave you behind!

", She held his hand and felt extremely at ease. She also clenched it tightly and said,

"Yes!

", At the same time, he touched her hair with the other hand. He left a shiny diamond hairpin in her hair., Then, he walked out of the room., The incident of the fire in Casterwich City was not particularly eye-catching. However, because Frederick had appeared at the scene, although a few days had passed since the incident, it still triggered all sorts of speculations., After Victoria came back, she saw the news but did not think much about it. She wanted to have dinner together with Alicia and thank her for helping her last time. However, she did not expect that she could not get in touch with her., In the room, after several calls, she was quite puzzled,

"Where are you fooling around? You're making me worry!

", Since she was used to losing contact with Alicia during busy periods, she put down her mobile phone and began to pack up. She thought to herself,

"Forget it. I'll wait for you to reply to me!

" According to her schedule, after this busy time, she would be ready to take Anthony to pay a visit to her parents. Then, the wedding should be arranged on schedule. Thinking of this, Victoria couldn't help but crack a bright smile on her face.,

"Lalala...

", Pulling on a long dress, she spun around happily and hummed a tune., As soon as she hung up her clothes, her cell phone rang,

"She replied so soon?

", When she ran to the other side, she found that it was her mother who called,

"Oh, my beautiful mother! Good morning!

", She estimated that it was morning where her mother was. Victoria sat by the bedside. She looked relaxed and was smiling cheekily.,

"This child... Are you praising me?

" A pleasant voice came and Victoria also laughed,

"Of course! Mom, I miss you so much!

",

"You only know how to flatter me! Rhea, won't you think about coming over? Your dad's career has shifted to this side and we can't go back for a while. It's hard to say in the future...

", She was a girl, not a boy. Her being alone on the other side of the planet made her parents worry., After hearing the worry in her mother's tone, a faint trace of loneliness flashed across Victoria's face. However, she giggled and said.,

"Mom, I'll come to see you in a while! I'll bring my boyfriend with me! It's so convenient now and I'm always traveling. In the future, when I go abroad to participate in fashion activities, I can go visit you on the way! I can take care of myself. Who would dare to bully your daughter? I'd ask Dad to order someone to break his legs!

",

"There it is again!

" Victoria's mother, Veronica, sighed and continued.,

"Every time I tell you something serious, you always joke around with me! Rhea, if your boyfriend is Trevor, I won't be worried. Then, your future mother-in-law will be my best friend and I can still talk to you! But now this boyfriend of yours, let's not talk about whether he is reliable or not. He doesn't even have a stable life right now. Don't let him deceive you! How many women, blinded by love, have been cheated on and lied to? Rhea, why don't you go and see Trevor once? He is young, has a promising future and is also very good-looking...

" , On the other side, Veronica chattered incessantly. Meanwhile, Victoria had already moved the phone away from her ear. She gritted her teeth and covered her ears with one hand., She complained in her heart,

"There she goes again! But he's a playboy!

", That won't happen unless all the men in the world were dead! Otherwise, even if he was the most handsome man alive, she would still look down upon him! He's dirty! Her mother must have been brainwashed by someone! How could she push her daughter into such a firepit?, Every time the two people called, it would always start off with a happy opening but end with an unpleasant ending., On the other side of the phone, as words fell, Victoria said,

"Mom, can you not mention him? I already have someone I love! He is very kind to me and your daughter is not stupid!

",

"Rhea!

",

"Mom, can we talk about the future after you see him? You don't want your daughter to marry a womanizer and cry every single day after marriage, do you?

",

"Rhea, don't judge a book by its cover. How can you make such a judgment when you haven't even gotten to know him? Trevor was born in a family with dignity and pride. He was taught by his parents. His parents have been together for more than 30 years. He has been influenced by his parents, so he can't be bad! He works in the culture and entertainment industry so perhaps he was just framed. I asked. you to go meet him earlier, but you just don't want to go...

" , Each and every word of hers was filled with a sense of regret. She always felt that if the two of them had a blind date early, it would be a good fate., If they spoke more, they would've, quarreled once again. Victoria did not want to argue anymore. She rolled her eyes but held back her breath,

"Mom, every time you talk about him, I feel like I'm adopted. Otherwise, it must be an excuse! If not handpicked by you, you would never approve of any son-in-law that I choose. If he really became a part of our family, would you still recognize me as your daughter?

" ,

"Rhea!

" She tried to manipulate her words again!,

"Okay, okay. Mom, how about this? Let's talk about this when you meet my boyfriend. If you really don't like him, I will definitely go on the blind date next time!

",

"It's a deal!

", Although there were many flaws in her mother's words, Victoria knew that her mother was sensible. Once she saw Anthony, she would definitely change her mind! Veronica had also said that she wanted Victoria to marry someone with a good character. Anthony's gentleness, kindness, and character would definitely satisfy her!, After chatting for a while, they hung up the phone. As Victoria sighed in relief, her cell phone rang again. When she saw that it was Anthony, she pressed the answer button.,

"Saturday night? What kind of party?

" Did he even have to remind her to dress up?,

"It's a friend's celebration party for a new product. I'm also an investor. You're technically my wife, so don't show up looking too shabby!

" While on the phone, he was holding a red silk box in his hand. Inside the box, there was a huge diamond ring shining brightly.,

"Oh, it turns out that you are afraid that I will embarrass you!

" After joking, Victoria also giggled and said,

"Don't worry. I will dress up fancily!
