No matter what the reason was, whether it was intentional or not, that person had to pay the price for hurting her.,

"Who was it? You mean you already know who locked me up in the bathroom? Who was it? And why did they do that?

",

"Did I do something wrong, or did I say something to offend someone?

",

"Otherwise, how could I be that unlucky? I only followed him to the office for two days and used their toilet. I don't remember interacting with anyone!

" She thought to herself.,

"There couldn't possibly be such a big grudge between me and someone, right?

", Looking at her knitted brows and the worried look on her face, Trevor's arms around her tightened. She was the innocent one who suffered a lot, yet she still tried to find fault with herself. She really was someone he needed to protect! Victoria suddenly remembered something and asked,

"Was it Madonna?

", If it was her, she would be speechless, but not afraid as she was not in the wrong. She wasn't even afraid of death; what could splashing her with red-colored water ultimately do to her? No matter how horrifying it was, she could endure it!

"No, it's someone you don't know!

", As soon as Trevor said that, Victoria felt a knot in her heart again. With a doubtful gaze, she asked,

"Are you saying that on purpose to cheer me up and comfort me?

", It didn't make sense!,

"Of course not! How could I let you get hurt in vain? And on my own turf, for God's sake!

" It was natural for him to want to find out the truth! Moreover, that matter was far more than a mere prank in the bathroom!, After hesitating for a while, Trevor said,

"It's Natalie Harris. I heard she's from the logistics department. As for why, I haven't had the time to ask!

",

"I want to hear it in person! Right or wrong, grudge or hatred, I want this clarified!

" She went through all that without understanding why. She would not let this go so easily., Victoria unconsciously rubbed her arms, and said with a shiver,

"An end should be put to this matter!

",

"Will she continue to target me in the future? This prank was too disgusting! This time, it was fake blood, but it could very well be something more disgusting the next time!

" She uttered.

"About this...

", As Trevor was unsure about this, he hesitated as he spoke.,

"Hubby! I want to know!

", After going through what she went through, she had the right to know the reason behind it. She hated feeling confused. It made her think about their first encounter, where for some reason, she became the victim in their battle., In the face of her attentive and appraising eyes, Trevor nodded and said,

"Okay! Once things are arranged, I'll take you there!

", He caressed her cheeks, and couldn't help feeling distressed for her.,

"Before that happens, you have to recover! Vicky, there are no ghosts in this world! Even if there are, they would be afraid of humans! Therefore, no matter what happens in the future, you have to be brave! It is only by being brave that nothing can hurt you!

" Victoria chuckled, tilting her head slightly.

"What's wrong with you today? You're being weird! Do you have anything to be afraid of, Master Trevor?

", She felt that there was fear in his gaze., Narrowing her eyes, Victoria was still thinking about how to tease him, but the next second, he pulled her in a tight embrace, so tight as if he wanted to crush her.,

"I'm afraid of you getting hurt...

" He added silently,

"Even more afraid of losing you!

", He murmured, but every word tugged at Victoria's heartstrings. Suddenly, the smile froze on her lips, and she unconsciously reached out to hug him.,

"I'm fine! It was just a cold.

", In the past, she would often catch a cold, and would only need to take some medicine and rest for two days! Suddenly, the feeling of being cared for warmed her heart like a small fire. What a silly, simple-minded woman!, Without any further explanation, Trevor held her face and said with a small smile,

"Vicky, there's something I want to ask you!

",

"What is it?

", They stared into each other's eyes before Trevor sat down, letting her sit on his lap. He was hesitant as he contemplated to himself,

"What if I'm wrong? Will she think badly of me?

",

"Is it something very hard to talk about? Don't worry, just say it! I can take it!

" Sensing something amiss, Victoria's heart skipped a beat., Trevor kissed her on the back of her hand and said,

"Vicky, I can't say that I'm not superficial, but I'm not heartless!

", Whatever was his, belonged to him alone, no matter how bad or broken it was. There was no exception!, After giving her a heads up and some time to process, he said,

"At Norwich Hotel, did you...

", How did she fall off?, Victoria hung her head, looking downcast. Trevor immediately corrected himself.

"It's okay, it's okay! I'll stop asking. It doesn't matten anyway. Don't be sad. It's all, swnovel, in the past, it doesn't, , Pressing her against his chest, Trevor was feeling upset as well., Listening to his heartbeat, Victoria suddenly said,

"No!

",

"It doesn't matt... what?

" Trevor couldn't believe his ears. He lifted her head and looked straight into her eyes.,

"I wasn't assaulted by anyone! I guess it's because I'm lucky. He woke me up first...

", Trevor felt both pain and joy well up in his heart at the same time. His voice softened as he asked,

"Then how did you fall off?

",

"I jumped down myself! He hit me, and I lost my strength. I think I was drugged, I felt dizzy, I floated in and out of consciousness. I was afraid... I couldn't run away. I'd ratheodie than let a man...

" , She had no other choice but to jump off a building. She couldn't even run. Clutching her neck, Trevor kissed her heavily on her lips twice.,

"Stupid woman! So stupid! How could you leap off a darn building! If it was a little higher or if you were not careful, you could die! What is more important than your life? When, I touched you... it was your first time too! , Why was she able to survive then but not this time?, Trevor thought to himself,

"Was it because she minded it this time?

", When he locked his eyes on her, Trevor couldn't help but hold his breath nervously as he awaited her answer. In fact, he didn't know what was going on with himself at that time and why he went for her., Of course, he didn't know that after that incident, Victoria had also picked up razor blades several times. If it weren't for the phone call from Veronica, she might no longer be in this world., But at that moment, she had gotten herself over it. She was unsure of her feelings for him as well., Regarding that matter, she couldn't be sure whether to blame him or Anthony., In truth, that night had felt extremely long. There was no denying that before the final trail, he had given them countless chances., Up to that day, what she remembered most clearly was his words that made her tremble and disappointed.

"You shouldn't be begging me. It's your man who refused to save you!

", Yes, a man who wasn't even willing to lie for her, a man who didn't even try to fight for her, a man who watched as she got hurt. Why would she want him? The only thing he ever gave her was pain. A moment of pain was better than a lifetime of fear!, Therefore, she couldn't tell whether it was her luck or misfortune regarding what happened that night!, But at that moment, she felt that her life with him was not as terrible as she thought it to be. She pursed her lips and said,

"I won't die for you! I am not that stupid! I did... I did it for myself!
