Chapter 135: What a two-faced person!
Victoria raised an eyebrow, a hint of gossip in her eyes. However, Nick certainly wouldn’t appreciate others prying into his privacy, so she dimmed the screen.
But Claire sent another message.
【Emily said you got married. I want to thank your wife for taking care of you when I wasn’t around.】
What a two-faced person!
While Victoria didn’t care about Nick, women naturally held animosity towards this kind of woman, but men were quite the opposite.
So, it turned out Nick liked this type.
Once in the car, she took the driver’s seat.
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere inside the car felt a bit stifling. Victoria didn’t know where to go next, she handed him the phone.
“Mr. Andrews, your phone. Where should we go now?”
Nick took it, saw two new message notifications, and furrowed his brows.
Victoria sensed Nick’s mood worsening. It was a kind of irritability she could feel without him saying a word.
She couldn’t help but sigh, indeed, it was first love.
“To Andrews Enterprise,” he casually tossed the phone aside without replying.
Victoria was about to drive towards Andrews Enterprise when her phone rang-it was Aggie.
“Victoria, Edward suddenly came to Shannon Villa. He asked you and Mr. Andrews to come back quickly.”
Victoria, surprised, glanced at Nick through the rearview mirror.
Nick’s phone also rang, and Victoria guessed it was Edward.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
As expected, seeing the incoming call, Nick’s mood soured even more.
“Grandfather.”
“Nick, I’m at Shannon Villa now. Since your hand was injured, I’ll come over to check on you.”
“Grandfather, I need to go to Andrews Enterprise for an urgent meeting now. I might be back later.”
“No rush, I’ll wait for you.”
After Edward hung up, Aggie also ended the call. Edward had a smile on his face. It was their first time at Shannon Villa after getting married, and he was in a good mood. He personally went upstairs to take a look and specifically toured the master bedroom.
Edward opened the closet and looked inside, raising suspicions. Two people living together, yet there were only a few sets of Nick’s suits in the closet.
“Don’t Tori usually stay here?”
Because Victoria had instructed Aggie, she told a small lie.
“She’s been busy lately and rarely comes back. Sometimes, to avoid disturbing Mr. Andrews, she stays in other rooms.”
“Take me to see.”
Aggie thought, “Uh-oh,” realizing that Victoria’s room was the farthest from the master bedroom. Edward would definitely become more suspicious. However, Aggie had no choice but to lead him to Victoria’s room.
This room was much cozier than the master bedroom. After all, it was a girl’s room, and Edward only glanced briefly. It was clear that this room was more well-equipped. The master bedroom looked like a temporary hotel room.
The two rooms were quite different, and Edward wasn’t a fool. His face immediately turned cold.
After Victoria dropped Nick off at Andrews Enterprise, she hurried back to Shannon Villa. Seeing Edward sitting upright in the living room, she knew something was wrong and quickly put on a smile.
“Grandfather, have you been waiting for a long time?”
Edward coughed twice, gesturing for Aggie to leave first. Once there were two of them left, he asked seriously, “Tori, in these days since Nick came back, have you and he… not consummated the marriage?”
Victoria was momentarily stunned, then thought of that night, and her face turned red. Considering the elder asking this question, she naturally understood his intention.
“We have.”
Edward was surprised. Could he have been wrong in his guess?
“Really? If you’ve been wronged, feel free to tell me.”
Victoria’s face grew even redder. After all, that night was quite absurd, and she even bought ointment afterward. Experiencing that feeling for the first time with Nick had indeed given her an intense experience.
So, when asked, the cool demeanor she had tried to maintain became disordered, revealing a hint of embarrassment.
This was something she couldn’t pretend.
