Chapter 927
The reluctant smile on her face seemed to have disappeared in an instant, and her pale face surfaced through her newly put on makeup. When Victoria loosened her grip and was about to turn around, she suddenly heard a "pfft" sound... Squatting down, she quickly picked up the plastic bag that fell to the ground. Almost at the same time, Trevor turned around from the side of the window and quickly hung up the phone. "Vicky, why are you here?"
Taking a few big steps forward, he instinctively squatted down and wanted to help. After picking up the last business card scattered on the floor, they stood up almost at the same time and Trevor asked. "Why didn't you say that you are coming over?"
Trevor's tone did not sound unhappy at all. He just held the afternoon snacks in his hand. Victoria wanted to laugh but she couldn't. She wanted to say something, but she was at loss for words.
As they looked at each other, Trevor fixed his eyes on her nose and was obviously stunned for a moment.
For a long time, neither of them moved.
Of course, she realized his actions, and he also saw Victoria's expression, which was obviously displeased. When he suddenly came to his senses, Trevor seemed to have remembered something. He stepped forward, raised his hand, touched one side of her nose, and wiped it for her,
"What's with your face? Did you not see the obvious dirt on your face?"
Trevor smiled, but Victoria unconsciously took a step back the moment she came to her senses. Her instinctive reaction caused the atmosphere to be awkward again.
At that time, it was clear that Victoria was acting differently, and Trevor still held his cell phone in one hand, which exactly was the proof of what happened.
Seeing that she had stood at the door since she arrived and had been in a daze, Trevor sort of understood what had happened. He reached out and took her hand and slowly brought her into the room.
"Let's come in first, then well talk..."
He dragged her into the room and pushed her down on the seat on the other side. Trevor then raised his hand and stroked her beautiful hair lovingly. He wrapped his arms around her head. Then, a kiss fell on her forehead. "You heard that I was calling... Are you angry?"
His attitude was still as warm as the sun. All of a sudden, Victoria was uncertain whether he was just really good at acting, if he just didn't care about her attitude at all, or if he was just taking her for granted... Therefore, she raised her eyes and looked straight at him, but she still did not say anything.
As soon as their eyes met, only then he noticed that the bag in her hand had his only favorite sweet snack, yogurt egg tart, and it's from his favorite place. Trevor's stern face softened a little.
"It was Nana who called me just now. She just returned here and recently fell ill again, so she has been in the hospital. She's a little emotional, so she kept saying that she wants me to accompany her for dinner!"
She was very surprised that he did not hide anything. Unconsciously, Victoria's eyes widened a little. She was shocked and dazed. More than that, she was also surprised in a complicated way.
Was he telling her the truth?
For Victoria, the past and the entanglement between Trevor and Selena were nothing. As long as he was willing to be transparent and explain, she was not an unreasonable person.
Everyone had their own past and everyone needed time to bid farewell to their past! If she was always stuck onto his past, how would she be able to have a future with him?
Trevor didn't know whether she would be angry or not, so he just gave her a comforting hug out of instinct.
"It's not that I didn't want to tell you, but I felt like there wasn't a need to. Besides, I've already made it clear to her. She's just my cousin. I was afraid that you'll feel awkward when you meet her and she's not in good health, so I didn't want to tell you! I am also afraid that you'll be angry. It's not that I asked her to come back. I don't want to further get involved with her either. However, she probably couldn't accept it for now. I sent her to the hospital because she was ill two days ago and just after the doctor had treated her, her illness got a little tricky. She didn't have any relatives here because we'd been together for a little while and her relationship with my mother had become estranged a lot. She had been pestering me to accompany her for dinner every day! Vicky, I didn't forget my identity and I wouldn't do anything that would hurt you. However, she's my cousin after all. Besides, we grew up together. So, I can't say that I don't have feelings for her at all. For me to leave her alone to perish, I really can't do that... Please don't get mad. Give me a little time, okay?"
Trevor held her hand and kissed it. He used to avoid these kinds of actions, and even he liked them, he wouldn't do them in public. Yet now, Trevor suddenly realized that it was not so difficult! If he didn't run away from it, he could instead be more transparent about it.
After all, they did not do anything out of line! The young and ignorant love, even if it was wrong, they had realized it and didn't do anything awfully wrong.
Although she was a little uncomfortable in her heart, after experiencing so much, Victoria already had an idea in her mind. Moreover, she knew what she wanted and where her bottom line was. After looking straight at him for a while, she nodded. "Fine!"
If she could win, she would fight for it. If she couldn't win, she wouldn't force it. Not at all!
"Then, are you going to have dinner with her tonight? Unfortunately, I even went far away to buy you egg tarts..." In fact, that was only an excuse for her to go there.
"I'll have dinner with her, and I of course can't waste my wife's thoughtful gifts too! Let's eat the egg tarts first. Let's eat it together! Wait for me, I'll make you a drink!"
Thinking of something, Trevor got up and walked to the pantry on the side. He opened a box. Although she was not so happy, Victoria could still accept his explanation.
After all, it was still reasonable if
they were to disregard all other things, and if he would only treat Selena as his cousin! Moreover, although she was curious about
Selena, she did not have a strong et
urge to meet her! As his cousin, she was younger than her, so she should come and visit her first. As her love rival, Victoria was his legal wife, so she had no reason to meet her. Moreover, for Victoria, the only one she was related to was her husband, Trevor. As for others, whether it was Elaine or Selena, they were all his responsibilities, and not something for her to worry about.
Thus, if it did not affect her, she would turn a blind eye. Once he went beyond the boundaries, Trevor would be the only one she would deal with!
Soon, Trevor brought over a cup of milk tea. It had a strong milky taste and also a fresh tea fragrance.
Looking at the round black pearl in the transparent glass, Victoria said in a surprised tone, "Bubble milk tea?" Why would he have it there?
"Give it a try!"
She took a sip of it. It was a familiar taste. She sucked in a tapioca pearl and it was chewy. It was a taste that she was familiar with. "It tastes like Classic Tea Drinks'... Earl Black..."
As she muttered, Victoria was also shocked. Although it was a little different, it was really similar!
Last time, it was also the same taste when she asked him to buy it for her!
