?Chapter 115: How are you doing 2 Chapter 115: How are you doing 2 Alexander Mitchell’s hand gripped the coffee cup, then he quietly looked at her.
After a long time, he finally spoke: “I have been looking into some things recently and understand that back then, I was too inexperienced.”
“I’m sorry.”
Upon hearing his apology, Victoria Garcia just responded indifferently: “You never wronged me, so I won’t accept those three words.”
Speaking word by word, Alexander said: “I looked into the case from back then, and discovered that my uncle… Although he didn’t seem to make any decisions, he tacitly consented to the verdict. And I naively believed that if I agreed to my mother’s request, everything would get better.”
“Looking back, even if I had approached my uncle back then, considering my family’s thoughts and my uncle’s position, he wouldn’t have agreed.”
Facing his sincerity, Victoria had her own feelings in her heart.
“It’s all in the past, you don’t have to blame yourself anymore. Moreover, I never blamed you.”
What Victoria said was the truth. Back then, although she was heartbroken that Alexander didn’t help her, she never blamed him for not helping. After all, being willing to help was voluntary, and not wanting to help was natural.
Alexander knew in his heart that he had always blamed himself. If he hadn’t been so naive, he wouldn’t have lost her.
“Yesterday, I found out that Metropolis mobilized both the black and white forces that day. There are very few people in Metropolis who have the courage to do that. Arnold Johnson is one of them.” Alexander’s expression seemed calm, but his heart was in turmoil. “I heard it was to save a girl. I want to know, was that person you?”
Victoria was silent for a moment, then said: “Yes, it was me.”
As expected, his guess was correct.
“What exactly happened? Did you offend someone?” Even though the incident had passed, Alexander was still very anxious at that moment.
Victoria was indifferent, and she didn’t want to explain too much.
“It’s already over.”
“As a friend, I would still be very worried about you.” Alexander tried hard to persuade her: “If you need help in the future, you can also come to me.”
After all, he still loved her, and he hoped that when she was in trouble, he would be the first one by her side.
“Thank you.”
Victoria only used these two words. She didn’t want to explain that she didn’t even have time to notify anyone.
When she thinks about it, even now, Victoria has to admit that she was really lucky to have met Arnold.
“It’s obvious that he treats you well.” Alexander hesitated for ten seconds before saying: “But I must remind you that Arnold is a very complex person, even dangerously so.”
“If you have the opportunity to leave, do not hesitate.”
Hearing this, Victoria looked blankly out the window.
She had thought that way before – once the three years were up, she would leave him and never owe each other anything again.
But in reality, so much had happened in less than half a year, it was no longer what she had initially thought.
“Whether you want to hear it or not, I want to tell you that I will be waiting for you.”
Victoria turned her head and replied flatly: “You know, I don’t want to hear this.”
“I know, but the truth is like that.”
Victoria looked at Alexander, and the persistence in his eyes remained unchanged just as his gaze towards her was as pure as before.
“You may not like me, but please don’t stop me from liking you.” Alexander’s soft voice said, word by word, “Just like before, treat me as a friend.”
