When We Meet Again As Strangers novel Chapter 10

The next day, Serena came to the hospital to see me while Victor was away.

Victor was right—she was pure and kind. Even though she blatantly declared her claim over him, there was not a trace of malice in her intentions.

"Jasmine, can we talk?" she asked.

Of course, I was more than willing.

In fact, I was eager to learn about Victor’s real life over the past few years.

Serena asked me, "Do you know how Victor went from having nothing to becoming the successful man he is now?"

Yes, his success had only taken four years.

Serena explained that when Victor first went abroad, he was a mess, struggling with depression before finishing his studies.

During that time, he often harmed himself, and that scar on his wrist was evidence of his attempt at suicide.

But he didn’t die. Instead, he lay in the hospital and received news sent by Tyler, who deliberately had someone bring him updates.

The people in his circle said that Tyler was treating me well, giving me the finest luxuries—clothes, food, and everything in between.

From that moment, Victor no longer wanted to die.

With an obsession for money, he abandoned his dignity, resorted to every cruel, ruthless method he could think of to climb to the height of success he had now.

There were countless people in the circle cursing him behind his back, calling him cold-blooded and wishing him an unworthy death.
