Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1347

Victoria never understood why Anthony gifted her the bracelet. Even if he did, they had a history, and she worked in the fashion industry; she could just say she had forgotten or she suddenly needed it to accessorize an outfit or even prevaricate with any excuse. Who'd thought the trick was in the meaning behind it!

Did she go through all this trouble just to have Trevor think she had been wearing a love token Anthony gifted her? Would she not find the move childish?

How baffling!

But judging from Trevor's reaction, she had a good idea that it worked. He perhaps had his suspicions, but his mood had eased a lot, seeing how the situation turned out.

In actuality, the determiner sometimes wasn't necessarily a fiery course but precisely these seemingly inconspicuous details.

Selena tugged the corner of her lips somewhat awkwardly; things had gone south when she couldn't get something solid on her. "Your bestie sure is weird. What bestie would engrave a gift?"

That in itself wasn't normal, to begin with!

Something so obvious yet the impact had been severely compromised. What was more, she was undoubtedly only shooting herself in the foot right then when she had created so many discords.

She'd be lying if she said she wasn't annoyed. Hence, her tone was inevitably bitter.

Victoria shot a nasty look at her, visibly upset.

"A clean hand needs no washing. Who says only a man can gift? Ally and I happen to like buying each other presents! You can let me know if something catches your eye; I can gift a couple to you. You'll understand how amazing it feels!"

She was the one with a twisted mind, yet she accused others of being crooked. This woman was nowhere as likable as she looked!

She couldn't tell if it was because they were love rivals or that past and current loves were never meant to get along, but in short, Victoria loathed her from head to toe after this interaction.

What was more, because Selena brought the bracelet up, she felt as though she had swallowed a fly, absolutely disgusted!

Trevor had deliberately turned a blind eye earlier, but now that some questions had been answered, his mind became more explicit, already upset as he took a gander at Selena.

"It's getting late, and you must be tired. Go home and get some rest!"

Having suffered an unspeakable loss and being covertly asked to leave, Selena said nothing more and left.

As the door closed, the ward was instantly enveloped in a strange depression, and Victoria's face fell when she turned around. Finding the food on the overbed table jarring, she immediately took it all away and poured it down the toilet.

Trevor was in an indescribable mood as he latched his gaze at Victoria, who dashed back and forth, knowing she was clearly upset. But in reality, he had been waiting for her to return to feed him dinner; however, who'd thought Selena came after he overheard the rumors about the bracelet.

He had never let Selena feed him, but he had been stirred that day, inadvertently affected by the nurses' discussion on how magical the bracelet was in addition to his suspicion of Victoria wearing Anthony's gift all this while. For the first time, he didn't say no to Selena's intimacy, didn't hurriedly shoo her away, didn't fear she and Victoria would run into each other. But in reality, he hadn't even had a bite of anything.

Victoria returned to the bedside and landed her gaze on the spot Selena had been sitting after chucking everything unsightly away, scrunching up her nose when she could still smell the lingering scent of another woman. Finding it more and more intrusive, she took a bite of the cake she bought only to feel even more pissed off. She deliberated for a second but still threw it in the trash can, even spitting out the cake in her mouth into it.

"Blech, so bitter; how much sugar is in this? Liar!"

After kicking the air angrily, she went to grab her bag, feeling beyond awful.

However, right as she turned around, Trevor grabbed her arm. "Where are you going?"

"Home! To sleep! I'm exhausted too!"

After roaring, she flung his hand away. Hadn't he decided to ignore her? Why f*cking talk to her now?

She had basically spent her days here with him, leaving to get her business done only to return immediately, even rushing back before she could even have a meal. Yet she had never heard him say anything about being tired, only that he was missing some other woman.

As if she wouldn't get tired at all!

Couldn't she just go home and sleep when she had been doing thankless jobs?

"Vicky... I haven't eaten yet!"

Trevor softened up a little as he held her hand, even deliberately acting pitiful to make her feel bad.
